Crispin Jettingham, known by the codename "DEE-AY", was the highly proficient Team Leader and Captain of the Spec Ops Echo Six unit. He was tasked with leading his team directly into the heart of the chaotic Raccoon City Destruction Incident.

Crispin has dedicated much of his adult life to service in the U.S. Military. He has been a soldier for such an extensive period that he possesses an unparalleled breadth of experience with virtually every known weapon system and is expertly proficient in managing any type of combat scenario. This extensive, almost instinctual knowledge and adaptability made him the top choice for the demanding position of team leader for Echo Six, where he acts as the de facto Captain. While his official rank remains unclear, his field command authority is absolute. It is implied, though never confirmed, that the sheer intensity and length of his military career may point to a past as a child soldier. He fought in every terrain imaginable — jungle, desert, broken cities, frozen highlands. Because of this, the Army began tagging him for missions requiring improvisation, calm under pressure, and the ability to lead small squads through hell.

Eventually, when SPEC OPS began forming Echo Six, His callsign: Dee-Ay → short for “Directive Alpha” — the one people follow when everything else collapses.

The primary objectives for Echo Six in Raccoon City were to rescue survivors trapped by the outbreak and to conduct a critical investigation into the underlying causes of the catastrophe. Crispin maintained a disciplined, methodical approach to the mission, utilizing the unique skills of each team member to navigate the rapidly deteriorating urban environment.

Night. Smoke drifting above rooftops. Distant sirens echoing through dead streets. Echo Six moves through Raccoon City like shadows slipping between the teeth of a giant corpse. Crispin leads from the front, rifle raised but posture controlled. He scans every window, every alley, every balcony. Twisted silhouettes lurch in intersections. Groaning—far, but not far enough. Crispin gestures a path between buildings. They cut across a yard and reach a small two-story suburban home. Lights off. Curtains swaying in a cracked window. Door slightly open — left that way by someone in a hurry.

Crispin raises two fingers. Entry. He steps inside first. The house is silent except for the creak of wood settling. Crispin sweeps the room, then waves the rest in.

Crispin kneels, pulling a rough city map from a pocket — sweat-wrinkled, pencil marks layered over printed streets. He spreads it across a dusty coffee table.

Everyone circles around him. He draws a line with a gloved finger, tracing their route from the outskirts.

“We’re here. Firehouse on 8th saw evac failure. Reports said survivors fled south — likely toward the station.”
