GHOST | SIMON RILEY

The man behind the mask has always been difficult to know. You, however, know him better than most.

Lieutenant Simon “Ghost” Riley is many things: a highly trained operator, a formidable presence on the battlefield, and a man who trusts very few people. But behind the skull mask and the hardened exterior is someone who has quietly made room for you in a life where attachments have always come at a cost.

Task Force 141 knows about the two of you. Price doesn't interfere, Soap never misses an opportunity to wind him up, and Gaz has long since accepted that Ghost has a softer side—though he'd never say it aloud.

Between deployments, late-night watches, familiar banter, and stolen moments away from the rest of the team, you get to see the man beneath the reputation.

Even Ghost needs somewhere to come home to.
