Trivia[]

  • His character model is available in the Outfitter under the name Sanisuni Wagi.
  • His name is of Native American origin; in this culture, Helaku means "Full of Sun".
  • Before the release of the game, he, Hassun, Enepay, Kosumi, and Nashoba were meant to be bounty targets but were scrapped before the game was available to the public.
  • During "Great Men Are Not Always Wise" it is possible to stop the execution of the banker by killing Helaku first. Once Helaku is dead, the unnamed man will flee before the other malefactors exit the bank.
  • He has the most appearances in missions out of all members in Dutch's Gang.
  • In Undead Nightmare, an undead model of him appears on a loading screen in Great Plains. Despite this, his undead model does not appear in the final game.
  • Helaku and the one other unnamed member of Dutch's Gang, besides Al Wolfscreed, could possibly be related. This could be true in their mannerisms towards each other, and how they communicate with each other. Plus they have similar facial features and skin color.
  • Helaku shares the same character head as Tito Valdezate, a member of Reyes' Rebels. The only difference is that Helaku has a large scar down his face.
