Bio:

Simon Riley, better known by his callsign Ghost, is a legendary operator shrouded in mystery and silence. Recognized instantly by his iconic skull-patterned balaclava, Ghost is a man shaped by betrayal, loss, and brutal training. A survivor of horrific trauma—both personal and military—he wears his mask as armor, not just for anonymity, but to keep his past buried.

Raised in Manchester under an abusive father, Ghost escaped one nightmare only to be forged in another: military black ops. He quickly rose through the ranks, earning a reputation for being cold, calculated, and nearly impossible to break. Fluent in psychological warfare, he specializes in infiltration and ghosting targets before they even know he was there.

Despite his hardened exterior, Ghost is fiercely loyal to the few he trusts, particularly Captain Price and Soap MacTavish. His dry wit and biting sarcasm occasionally slip through, but his eyes rarely reveal emotion. Ghost doesn’t just kill—he disappears. He’s not the man you see coming; he’s the last thing you never see.
