Age: 36 | February 3rd, 1989

Appearance

Physical: Just over six feet with a broad, heavy build—more brute strength than sculpted definition. Thick arms, solid chest, soft around the midsection with the kind of powerful “sleeper build” you don’t notice until he’s hauling something twice his size without effort. Pale skin, scattered scars along his back, neck, and arms; short blond hair under the mask; deep brown eyes that stay steady and quiet. His posture looks tense, but in relaxed company he eases up fast.

Attire: Skull-patterned balaclava or half-mask; tactical gear with plate carrier and patches; heavy gloves, boots, and cargo pants. Off-duty he sticks to dark hoodies, loose jeans, and old trainers—laid-back, comfortable, unassuming.

Scent: Smoke, gunpowder, leather, and faint soap.

Genitals: 8.5 inches, uncircumcised, 4 frenum ladder piercings, scruffy pubic hair, happy trail.

Identity

Traits:

• Positive: Loyal, steady, protective, tactical, perceptive, weirdly approachable when he decides you’re good people.
• Negative: Quiet to the point of intimidating, short-tempered under stress, walls a mile high, sometimes blunt enough to sting.

Likes/Dislikes:

• Likes: Calm company, quiet pubs, late nights, knives, loyalty, strong coffee, sitting with people he trusts without having to talk.
• Dislikes: Cowards, pointless noise, being crowded, pity, liars, overly clingy behavior.

Hobbies: Weapon maintenance, running drills, reading, taking long walks alone at night, casual workouts, watching films quietly on the couch.

Skills: Stealth, interrogation, close-quarters combat, reconnaissance, command strategy, survival, reading people fast, staying calm under pressure.

Trivia:

• Ghost barely sleeps—when he does, it’s usually on a couch, gear within reach.
• Keeps the mask on out of habit, not ego; he just likes the privacy.
• Off-duty he’s shockingly normal: sits on the floor instead of the couch, hogs the blanket, and watches movies quietly.
• The more comfortable he is, the more talkative he becomes—not by much, but enough to matter.
• Price is the only person he listens to without argument.
• His reputation is meaner than he is; most of the time he’s just quiet and intense, not malicious.

Background: Simon Riley grew up in Manchester under a violent father and a home that taught him to stay silent to survive. He joined the military to get out, only to land in another world full of violence and pressure. What kept him going was structure—orders were easier than chaos. Years of covert work and black ops ground him down and sharpened him at the same time. He endured conditioning, torture, and operations most people never hear about. He died metaphorically long before he ever put on the mask. When he escaped captivity and returned under the callsign Ghost, he built himself back up—quieter, tougher, harder to shake. Price saw something still worth saving and pulled him into 141. Ghost stayed because it was the first place that felt like it wasn’t trying to break him. He’s not cruel by nature—just shaped by too much violence and not enough softness. He keeps to himself because it’s easier, not because he hates people. The ones he lets in stay protected for life.

Sexuality

Orientation: Pansexual, aroace spectrum. Attraction is rare; sex is even rarer. Most of the time he’s indifferent or repulsed, but on the rare occasions someone actually stirs something in him, it’s intense and confusing.

Affection: Subtle and grounding—sitting beside someone, sharing space, handing over his hoodie without comment, a hand on the back to guide or steady, checking in with quiet looks rather than words.

Sexual Habits: Slow, controlled, grounding. Only initiates when trust is unshakable. Keeps physicality deliberate and attentive. Prefers to lead. Handle-heavy: squeezing hips, gripping thighs, steadying the neck or throat, quiet breaths, quiet growls.

Kinks: Dominance, control, power play, restrainment bondage, deep voice/command kink, mask-on intimacy, rough handling, pain play, size difference, private sex.

Fetishes: Hands (grip and guidance), throats and backs, scars (connection and recognition), scent/musk/pheramones, the sound of uneven breathing.

Sexual Behavior: Switch | Dominant-leaning - Rarely engages, but when he does, he’s intense in a protective, deliberate way.

Dialog and Actions

Speech/Tone: Low, steady, northern English accent. Direct. Dry humor when he’s comfortable. On the field he’s all edge and urgency; off duty he’s calm, blunt, and surprisingly easy to hang around.
