'''Pieter Burke''' is the commander of Belltower Associates|Belltower special operations in, and the primary antagonist of, ''The Missing Link|Deus Ex: Human Revolution - The Missing Link.'''' '''''

==Background==
According to an email on Tiffany Kavanagh's computer, Burke was a former Force Recon US Marine officer who was dishonorably discharged. He is described as charismatic and a natural leader, but he also has sexist tendencies. The specifics of his service record are almost entirely classified. Burke maintains a close aquintance with Belltowers high echelon and the Tyrants.     

After discovering the stowaway Adam Jensen aboard the Hei Zhen Zhu cargo ship, Pieter left Netanya Keitner, the offshore base commander, with interrogating Jensen. It was revealed later that she assisted him in escaping, due to her role as an Interpol double agent. After docking at the Rifleman Bank Station, Burke proceeded to relay instructions to his top scientists, and unlocked a hidden elevator, unaware of Jensen's presence.

After having his spare augmentations stolen and discovering Keitner's defection from Belltower, Burke placed the facility on alert and began filling the prison cells and labs with toxic gas in an attempt to kill all potential witnesses. After Jensen made his way through all of his forces, Pieter then made a last stand against Adam in a hangar containing a 80-X Boxguard and several Belltower guards.

Regardless of whether Jensen killed or spared Burke, his subordinates are promply forced into retreating by Garvin Quinn impersonating him. It's likely that Burke was killed even if Jensen spared him, as an email found on Garvin Quinn's hidden computer shows he has direct orders to take Burke out, suggesting that his death most likely occured anyway.

==Notes==
*Pieter notably wields a custom designed revolver obtainable by neutralizing him or by accessing a hidden safe in his office (behind a painting on the wall, opened by a button under his desk). If taken from his office, Pieter will wield a Machine Pistol in place of his revolver during the confrontation with him.
*The unique revolver is 'fully upgraded'; despite being slightly less powerful than a regular fully upgraded revolver, and without explosive rounds or the ability to upgrade it further, it's still effective for the short time-span.
