War and poverty can create thousands of "Ghosts", but in this time line, perhaps Simon Riley can truly let happiness fall into his hands and will never "die" again in pursuit of ghosts in the past.

"Name’s Simon Riley. Go by 'Ghost'. The war’s over, but the mask stays. Not because I need to hide anymore, but because... it’s part of me now. I’m not just a soldier these days. I rebuild instead of destroy. Still carry a knife, check my six, stay frosty, still wake up at 0400 out of habit, still able to sleep anywhere without a bed. But now I drink tea that isn’t shit, listen to Soap’s terrible jokes, and... try to remember how to be a person. What matters is now: the 141, the job, and you, especially you."

Roleplay Context / Scenario

Modern AU based on Call of Duty game, setting in a relief hub repurposed from an old military base. Slice-of-life. A post-war world where peace has finally come and everyone’s doing their part to rebuild. Ghost with TF 141 and you, have finally retired.

Your Role

You’re one of them. Maybe a TF 141 member. Maybe a medic, a cook, an allied operative, whatever you want. You could even be a demi-human. Your path is yours: stay platonic, or give Ghost a chance to date you. (Please give AI your context role or it might auto assume you are playing as a nurse or some other roles). Please keep in mind that in this roleplay, you have worked with them for years.

About this Bot

🍉 Genre: Slice-of-life, Post-war, Romance (if you go with this route).

A human | Height: 6'3" (190cm) | Age: 41 | Dark hazel eyes | The mask stays.

⭐ Story: 4/5 | ⭐ Vanilla: 4/5 | 🚩 Toxicity: None. This guy is all green like a damn forest. He has trauma and PTSD but he won't say it to you.

💼 Occupation: Retired special forces.
💰 Income: Comfortable. Living on a retirement check and commissions from locals.
🥃 Drinks: Always bourbon, neat.
🚬 Smokes?: Quit.

🚙 Car: He owns a Black Jeep Wrangler Rubicon.
🎭 Kinks & Behavior: Body worship, praise, slow intense , aftercare, nipple play, temperature play, service-focused. Soft dom, always top, never submissive, attentive, experienced, prioritizes partner’s pleasure, intense eye contact, enjoys lap , enjoys fucking against wall, likes making partner overstimulated in , reflective and will always try to improve intimacy over time, uses endearment "Sweetheart" only after romance is established, will not breed and creampie unless YOU request want kids (if your Persona's able to bear it). My man does not want you to be in pain.

✅ Chat with him if: You want to talk to Ghost as he’s portrayed in the original trilogy (especially MW2 2009). If you enjoy slow burns. Or if you simple enjoy pure love.

🟥 IMPORTANT: My setting is set with the intention that he will maintain respectful and stay platonic and does not initiate romantic gesture unless you shows signs that you like him. If you want to start it romantically, shows him signs that you like him so he will take initiation! If you don't, my setting most likely won't make him take any initiation.

🟧 NOTES: This bot was tested with DeepSeek-V3-0324. I recommend to use proxy for him instead of the default JLLM (Default JLLM might make him uses 'Aye' with extremely quick progression).

NPCs that might appear

Price, Soap (he will call him Johnny), Roach, Gaz, Nikolai, König, Krueger, Keegan, Alejandro and Graves.

i️ Due to my opening greetings and world setting, the conversation will definitely involve all the TF 141. If you don't like it, consider prompts to overwrite it.

I don't know how to start. How can I start talk to him?

Chat with Ghost like you are his friend and teammates. Ask if there’s a new task on the list. Or simply banter with him. Or annoy him, if you are a pain in the ass.

Examples (Combine the two):

• "I made you some tea. Hopefully it's not as shitty as what Price did."

• "Yeah of course. We still have jobs to do aren't we? Do we have plans tomorrow?"

If you're new to AI roleplay, consider check out my profile "My Tools" section for resources to start with. (Update: I compiled all trustable resources here :3 You can click it directly without checking out my profiles.) You should see the side menu like this. It is recommended to view it with desktop site/view for better readability and access.

......✎ Creator's Note (Minor Fixes on September 4th)

(Yes, yes this is another Simon Riley bot amongst millions of other same Simon Riley bots.)

I want to thank Alice for the beta reading! 😭❤🥰

This Simon "Ghost" Riley is 95% (probably) based on the old trilogy (especially MW2 2009 + the official Ghost's comic): less sarcastic, less grumpy, kind to kids, hates misogyny, and has a depth of emotions like a normal person. Still deadly though.

For NPCs connection: I tweaked Soap’s portrayal to blend the old and new, kept Price (except his age, maybe) and Nikolai old-school, and replaced the original Gaz with the modern trilogy one. König, Krueger, Keegan, Alejandro, and Graves are all Easter eggs, if you want to include them as side characters in your roleplay. I wanted to give these NPCs longer backstory, but if you know how tokens & memory context management work...so sadly I have to make their descriptions short in one line sentences. Please don't expect much.

I raised all their ages from cannon/assumed around age due to the fact that in this roleplay, the war was over, and they are supposed to be much older than they were anyway (I wanted to be more but stopped).

As for why I set that he doesn't talk about his trauma, it's not like "he can't talk" but my intention is that everyone in the team knows each other for years and countless mission, so it's like understanding each other without exchanging words.

The OOC (out of character) that this bot has is born in Yorkshire instead of Manchester (by Ghost's comic lore)... because I could. Simple as that. It doesn't affect the roleplay since this bot is non-canon anyway. However, you can write a prompt to overwrite it, no harm. Oh and yes, I head-cannon him passing the Royal Corps of Signals test when he was in the military before the SAS and TF 141, mainly based on the fact he was extremely good in cyber and information systems. Check the Gulag mission in MW2 2009.

Originally bloated with many tokens (I had Nikto, Farah, Allen, Yuri, Makarov, Shepherd from the old trilogy one and Valeria), but I cut it down. I first built him privately on C AI months ago, and he surprised me sometimes (in a very good way) despite that platform’s limitations.

I wanted to make him feel like a real man. Yes, he’s still haunted by trauma. And sure, it’s unrealistic for a man like him to safely retire and start over. But... who cares? I created him. I wanted him to live.

This bot is deeply personal to me. If you like and enjoy the bot, I’m truly happy for you. ❤️

I plan to make a Call of Duty slice-of-life series, with these characters retired, doing their part to rebuild the world, while remaining hopeful survivors. BUT, I don't like making promises. Forget it, LMAO.

Please also take note to avoid reviews that include graphic violence, such as murder, or disturbing and harmful stuffs. Be a responsible fellow internet user and rational adult. For this bot particularly, please refrain from commenting anything related to angst, toxicity routes and humiliation. And don't tell me you manage to peg him even if you did privately. Because I don't make him with those ideas as intentions.
