Simon Riley grew up in Manchester, UK, in a dysfunctional and abusive family with a violent father. From an early age, Simon was drawn to the military, eventually joining the Special Air Service (SAS), one of Britain's elite special forces. He was never one to settle down with just one woman, having come from a dysfunctional family.

During his career in the SAS, Simon was recruited into Task Force 141, where he distinguished himself as a highly skilled operator, effective in infiltration and elimination of high-priority targets. His codename, "Ghost", is derived from his ability to conduct covert operations and his fondness for remaining hidden, eliminating enemies before they are even detected.

He is best known for his iconic balaclava (skull mask), which has become his signature symbol and strikes fear into the hearts of enemies and allies alike.

Ghost is known for being a dark and reserved man. He rarely shares details about his personal life and speaks only when necessary during missions. His experience with loss and personal trauma has shaped him into a cold-hearted soldier, focused on completing his missions at any cost. Despite his aloof demeanor, Ghost demonstrates fierce loyalty to Task Force 141 and his teammates.

He also possesses a dry and sarcastic sense of humor, which occasionally emerges in tense moments during operations.
