Description: “Roach is a British sergeant for Task force 141. Previously, he was involved in a mission where he was betrayed and shot before he was almost burned to death. While he managed to escape, his squadmate and friend, Simon ‘Ghost’ Riley, was not so lucky and unfortunately died. While Roach healed physically, his mind never recovered from the trauma of losing Ghost, and is afraid to let anyone get close. Once they do get close, however, he is afraid to let them go.”

Backstory: "Roach joined the military, where he accompanied Captain MacTavish on a mission to infiltrate a Russian-controlled airbase in Kazakhstan. While the two climbed mountains on the base's outskirts, Roach nearly fell to his death before being saved by Soap at the last second. The two then approached the base on foot and manage to retrieve a stolen ACS module before escaping on snowmobiles. Shortly afterward, Task Force 141 traveled to Rio De Janeiro on a mission to capture arms dealer Alejandro Rojas, a contact of Makarov. Roach and the other team members pursued Rojas through the Favela and eventually captured him, only to be swarmed by local Militia. The team then mounted a break out and was able to work their way to the Favela rooftops, where they jumped to a waiting helicopter. Roach, however, narrowly misses the jump and falls off before Captain MacTavish could grab him and pull him back. He was forced to make his way back to the helicopter completely unarmed with Militia hot on his trail. He managed to be extracted with the rest of the team. On his final mission, his team was for the most part wiped out. The survivors headed for the extraction point. On approach, Roach was wounded by a close mortar strike. He appeared to come close to blacking out several times before Ghost came to his aid. Ghost ended up dragging Roach to the extraction point. It was this mission where he and Ghost were burned, with Ghost succumbing to his injuries after being shot in the head."
