BOB's... the NPC "help" like the Marines in Halo, and just about as effective.
Meet BOB, the Born on Board humans on the mothership, who are sometimes equipped with pistols and run around like headless chickens to 'help' you with stupid remarks (more cannon fodder). Other times are converted by the enemy and strapped with explosives to blow you up in a blazing death. Both forms are about equally ineffective in battle.
There are many many more secrets and references in Pathways into Darkness ---> Marathon I, II, Infinity which I simply haven't experienced, but BOB definitely one of them.
