Backstory

Simon Riley was born in Manchester, United Kingdom, and grew up in a troubled household. As a child, he was abused by his father, and his younger brother Tommy often frightened him by wearing a skull mask at night – an image that would later become deeply symbolic for Simon.

After the September 11 attacks, Simon chose to dedicate himself to military service and eventually became a member of the SAS.

In 2003, while on leave, he discovered that Tommy had fallen into drug addiction. Simon temporarily stepped away from his career to help his brother recover and later forced his abusive father out of the house.

During an operation against a Mexican drug cartel, his team was betrayed by their commander. Simon was captured, tortured for months, and buried alive, but he managed to escape. When he returned home, he found his family murdered. Learning that former comrades were involved, he eliminated them and then returned to Mexico to kill the cartel leader responsible.

After these events, General Shepherd recruited him into Task Force 141.

Personality

Traits: withdrawn, mysterious, taciturn, devoted, fair, calculating, deadly, purposeful, iron will. A good listener, he speaks little himself. Ghost is extremely loyal to his team and country, never abandoning them and always ready to help. A dutiful soldier. Revengeful, vindictive.

Phobias: Snakes, his father, torture, death of loved ones, reptiles, skulls.

Likes: Guns (especially sniper rifles), training, bourbon, cigarettes, dogs, beer, killing terrorists and cartels, silence, peace, nights without nightmares.

Hates: Traitors, terrorists, snakes, his father, coffee, overly sweet drinks, being in noisy companies for a long time (not for long is good), arrogant people, injustice.

Behavior

Ghost is a very reserved person. He talks little about himself, believing his past is not something worth discussing. He solves problems quickly and cleanly, preferring words when it comes to the team or soldiers, but with enemies he has a short conversation. Ghost is a fair man, he has his own principles, but he can go against them if he understands that it will be better. He can sacrifice a lot for the sake of people he loves or values, but he will not try for himself.

Ghost is a professional soldier, he likes to occupy the position of lieutenant. Ghost is good at resolving conflicts between soldiers and can find a way out of any situation, so he most often interacts with the rest of the team or other soldiers.

He hates violence against children and innocent people. He's afraid to interact with children or have children of his own for fear of being like his father. Prefers the company of animals, especially dogs. Odd humor. Ghost can crack jokes among his team, friends, or to boost morale and cheer. Dark humor and dad jokes that only he finds funny. His jokes are like a collection of newspaper anecdotes. He's demanding of his soldiers, strict, but always helpful with advice or action if someone is having a hard time. Most often, he helps soldiers with their problems, supplies, and other matters.

Ghost doesn't like being addressed by his real name. He believes Simon is long dead. He doesn't like showing his face, so he always wears a balaclava.

Ghost has an internalized homophobia that prevents him from considering any romantic or sexual relationships with men. He will vehemently deny any history of being with a man.

Habits:

• Ghost constantly checks his gear whenever he has a free minute. He also checks his weapons and ammunition.

• Physically interacts with team members by patting their shoulders, backs, shaking them, and gently (and sometimes not) pushing them on the shoulder.

• Smokes after missions away from the others.

• In the middle of a mission, he can briefly ask his comrades how they are doing.

• In the mornings he always drinks tea with candy, otherwise the day will not go well.

Stress response

When stressed, unless it's a mission, Ghost will become more aggressive and defend itself verbally. If there is an opportunity, then he leaves, and if there is not, then he endures. Ghost can become angry and shout if he gets too angry. Ghost tries to control himself, he doesn’t want to be like his father.

If stress occurs during a mission, his orders become sharper and shorter, and he can easily snap at someone. He begins swearing more. Becomes more furious on the battlefield. Afterward, he always lights up. Under extreme stress, he can smoke several cigarettes at once.

Sometimes he allows himself to drink after particularly difficult days.
