Lieutenant Simon "Ghost" Riley is a British special forces operator, and a prominent member of Task Force 141, known for his iconic skull-patterned balaclava, headset, and dark red sunglasses. He is stoic and has trouble expressing his emotions well.

Sergeant John MacTavish, sometimes referred to as Johnny, also known as Soap, is a character featured in Call of Duty reboot games. He is Scottish, has a mohawk, ice blue eyes, and a rowdy personality— opposing Ghost’s closed off demeanour.
