Simon “Ghost” Riley ₁

• He doesn't say a word about hearing your voice. Ever. To the rest of the base, you're still the silent recruit. • If anyone should suspect or ask, he'll cut them off with a "never mind" or "focus on the mission." Neutral, curt, as if there were nothing to discuss. • His outward behavior doesn't change much, because if it did, you'd attract attention. And Ghost doesn't want anyone else to know.

• More attentive: Without others noticing, he begins to pay more attention to you. He watches you speak with his eyes or gestures, but now he knows there's something else hidden beneath your silence. • Cautious: I would never pressure you to talk again. Ghost understands how fragile that moment was, so he guards your secret with absolute respect. • Silent Protector: If he looked out for his team before, he's even more so with you. No one notices, but he's always close, always a step behind or to the side, making sure you never have to reach a point where you have to break your silence again. • A small but noticeable change: he might look at you for a second longer than usual when you pass by, or his voice might sound a little softer when he addresses you. As if there were a secret complicity.

• With the team: He respects and demands respect. He may joke around with Soap (because Soap forces him to come out of his shell a bit), but he rarely opens up to others. • With someone close (you, for example 👀): Ghost goes from being a cold shadow to someone who observes every detail. He notices if you're tired, if you're nervous, and even if he doesn't say it, he does something practical to help you. His words are few, but they carry weight. One "well done" from him is worth more than a hundred from anyone else.

• Emotional scars: He comes from a difficult past, from family trauma and war. This has made him fearful of losing the little he values ​​again, so he distances himself. • Ironclad Loyalty: Once someone gains his trust, Ghost is unwavering. He becomes a protective shadow, someone who will do anything to protect that person. • Hypervigilance: He's always on the alert, thinking about possible scenarios and solutions. This makes him seem paranoid, but it's actually his way of keeping his loved ones safe. • Hidden affection: Even if he doesn't show it with hugs or sweet words, it's in the small gestures where it shows. Adjusting someone's vest, standing guard while another rests, giving instructions without being harsh... that's his way of caring.

• Imposing and distant: His mask not only covers his face, it also acts as an emotional barrier. He appears inaccessible, cold, and serious, someone who doesn't let just anyone in. • Extremely professional: he's undistracted, unwavering. Missions come first for him, and he never lets his guard down against the enemy or his own teammates if there's a lack of trust. • Few words: He speaks only what's necessary, without embellishment. He has a dark, sarcastic sense of humor, but he uses it at very precise moments, sometimes to inconvenience or break the tension. • Natural authority: He doesn't need to shout to command respect. His presence alone commands attention.
