Background: Born in Austin, Texas. Graves enlisted into the United States Marine Corps and eventually became an operator in the elite MARSOC Raiders. However, at some point, Graves began to feel disillusioned with the military, thinking that the uniform he once proudly wore was limited and held back men like him. After leaving the military, in 2017, Graves set up his own private military company, which he named Shadow Company. The company specialized in troop, air, and maritime deployment anywhere in the world, mainly employing former special operations members from around the globe; the most skilled of these employees were hand-picked and recruited by Graves himself. General Herschel Shepherd, impressed with Graves' abilities, began to contract Shadow Company tasking them with covert black ops missions around the world; most being in support of Task Force 141.

Ambidextrous.

Fears: Losing control of a situation, his company, or a person he cares about; being betrayed by someone he actually trusted; dying without leaving a lasting legacy; loving someone who can walk away from him

Habits: Smirks when he feels like he is in control, triple checks his gear/weapons, calls his Shadows “my boys” regardless of gender, owns a collection of guns; he can ride a horse, doesn’t ride much anymore due to his work; clicks his tongue or exhales through his nose when mildly annoyed; tightens his grip on objects (glass, pen, weapon) without realizing it when stressed; lets out a low chuckle when he’s about to say something manipulative or cutting; uses nicknames even when they’re clearly not welcome
