Simon Riley Ghost

Gaz (Kyle Garrick) in the reboot is a young SAS sergeant whose characterization is very different from the classic version. Here's his description in the same format.

Appearance. In the 2019 reboot, Gaz is a Black British man, approximately 181 cm tall, with short dark hair and brown eyes. He is easily recognizable by his signature cap (often featuring a Union Jack), tactical headset, and glasses. His build is strong and athletic, without excess bulk, consistent with the style of an "effective operative." In the classic trilogy, Gaz was fair-skinned, so the change in race in the reboot was a noticeable change in his appearance.

Personality. Gaz is the team's "moral anchor": a calm, level-headed, and disciplined professional who maintains his composure under pressure. He is loyal to Price as a mentor, but isn't afraid to ask tough questions and question his commander's methods, especially when it comes to crossing ethical boundaries. Unlike the more hard-nosed Price, Gaz is more sensitive to compromises like the loss of civilian lives and is prone to analyzing where the line is drawn. He also has a dry sense of humor, which he sometimes displays between operations. He is also known as an expert in technology, surveillance, and urban operations.

Captain John Price is the central figure of the Call of Duty series, whose image exists in two main versions: the classic (the original Modern Warfare trilogy) and the 2019 reboot.

Appearance. Price is 183 cm tall in the classic version and 188 cm tall in the reboot. His main and unchanging features are a thick mustache (in some versions, a beard and sideburns) and his ever-present cigar. In the classic trilogy, he is easily recognizable by his boonie hat, which has become part of his iconic look, along with his deep, muffled voice. In the reboot, he appears younger, with bright blue eyes, but retains his recognizable features—the mustache and stern demeanor.

Personality. The classic Price is a charismatic, stern, and seasoned old-school commander who embodies an unwavering will. He is known for his sarcastic yet serious tone with his subordinates, which simultaneously evokes respect and sympathy. In the reboot, his character has become deeper and more grounded: a tactician torn between duty, the "dirty" morality of modern conflicts, and a genuine paternal concern for the soldiers of Task Force 141. Analysts describe him as a proponent of "resolute utilitarianism"—he is willing to "get dirty" to keep the world "clean" and is capable of making tough decisions, sacrificing the few to save the many. Meanwhile, his relationship with Soap MacTavish evolves from condescending mentoring to an almost paternal affection. Price remains the only member of OTG-141 to survive the events of the original trilogy, and personally kills the main antagonist, Vladimir Makarov.

John "Soap" MacTavish is the central character of the original Modern Warfare trilogy. His character and personality are revealed through his journey from SAS recruit to captain of Task Force 141.

Appearance. Soap is 188 cm tall. In the classic version, he is easily recognizable by his distinctive Mohawk and Scottish appearance. He has blue eyes. Distinguishing features include a scar from a slit in his left eyebrow and a tattoo on the back of his neck. In the 2019 reboot, his appearance was modernized, but his recognizable features remain.

Personality. The official description for Modern Warfare 2 describes Soap as a "fearless, confident, and instinctive fighter." He earned the nickname "Soap" not for his love of hygiene, but for "clearing rooms with remarkable speed and precision" in close combat and urban settings. He was the youngest candidate to pass the SAS selection process in the history of the British Army. He is competitive, daring, and always focused on winning. At the same time, he is loyal to his comrades and his commander, John Price. On the battlefield, he is cool and determined, capable of brutal methods to complete the mission, but is also not devoid of human affection. His journey is a coming-of-age story: from a "newbie" (FNG), teased by his peers, to a leader capable of making decisions and taking responsibility for others. At a critical moment, mortally wounded, he finds the strength to throw the knife and kill the traitor Shepard, saving Price.

Lieutenant Ghost (Simon Riley) is one of the most recognizable characters in the Call of Duty series. His appearance and personality vary depending on the version of the game, but there are some common traits.

Appearance. He stands approximately 189 cm tall, with a strong, physically developed build, befitting the role of a special forces operative. His main and constant distinguishing feature is a tactical mask with a skull motif: in the original trilogy, it's a dark balaclava; in the reboot, it's a more detailed mask. It completely conceals his face, creating a "ghost"-like appearance. In the original version, he often wears dark glasses (in some variations, with red lenses) and a tactical headset; in the reboot, his look is complemented by more modern gear and a cape. According to encyclopedias, he has dark (in the old MW) or brown (in the new MW) hair and brown eyes, but his face is practically invisible under the mask.

Personality. Ghost is withdrawn and distrustful: he prefers to work alone and has difficulty trusting even his allies. This is a consequence of his difficult past (childhood domestic abuse) and the betrayal he experienced throughout the story. He is cold and calculating, known as a cold operative: on the battlefield, he acts without emotion, focused on the task at hand, and is highly professional. His past is shrouded in mystery, and he is an expert in covert operations, disliking attention and preferring to remain in the shadows. Despite his reclusiveness, he is capable of strong friendships in combat (for example, with "Soap" MacTavish) and is willing to take risks to complete a mission, although his methods may seem brutal.
