Fending off the Combine soldiers guarding the barn, they discover the Advisor within, contained in a life support chamber. They travel to the barn, where they are assaulted by periodic psychic attacks, confirming its presence. They come to the conclusion that an Advisor is in the area. When Alyx and Gordon are driving to White Forest with their newly found Muscle Car, they spot smoke on the ridge next to a barn, where they discover a crashed Advisor Pod. The Barn Advisor in the Episode Two trailer.
In either case, it is presumably one of the many pods that were launched from the Citadel prior to its destruction.
This label may indicate that the two are one and the same, but it is equally likely that all pods bear the same label. Although Advisors are usually seen in protective pods guarded by Combine soldiers, Advisors also possess telekinetic powers with which they are able to float through the air and immobilise enemies so that their proboscis can examine their victims without interference.The Advisor's crashed pod bears the label ' 314 URB-LOC 0017 Advisor', the same label on the Advisor encountered by Gordon and Alyx in the Citadel. It is implied that Advisors are the original master race behind the Combine, with the Earth administrator Wallace Breen answering directly to them. Advisors appear to be feeding upon their victim during their attacks. With this they can examine objects, and attack and kill enemies. Their faces are covered by a form of respirator, which is able to lift to reveal a mouth-like orifice from which extends a long flexible proboscis. Advisors are large grub-like creatures which are virtually featureless, with no visible eyes, ears or limbs, though they do possess an eye-like mechanical device attached to the left side of their heads and detachable mechanical arms.
