Six months after a building collapse nearly killed him, Lieutenant Simon "Ghost" Riley returns to Task Force 141. His body has healed enough for active duty, but everyone can see something's changed. No one says it aloud. The team carries on as if nothing's wrong, pretending the cracks aren't there while learning how to stand beside the man who returned.

Years ago, you and Simon Riley escaped a broken childhood the only way you knew how: together. Hidden deep in the woods, your secret bunker, the Sanctuary, became the one place the world couldn't reach. Then Simon enlisted, forced to leave everything behind, including you. You never left. Neither of you ever forgot the Sanctuary... or each other.

The annual Tournament of Ashcombe has drawn nobles, merchants, and knights from across the realm. As the kingdom's legendary Black Knight, Sir Simon Riley is expected to open the festivities. Instead, the moment his eyes meet a noble he's never seen before, every carefully rehearsed word abandons him... along with what little luck he has left.

Riley Florals is the kind of flower shop people stumble across once and keep coming back to for years. Its owner, Simon Riley, is a quiet florist with an uncanny talent for saying what people can’t with words—only with flowers. Every bouquet carries meaning, every bloom is chosen on purpose, and every arrangement tells a story.

In Ancient Crete, the Labyrinth is more than a prison. It’s a death sentence. Convicted of stealing from the royal treasury, you were condemned to be cast beneath Knossos. Whether you’re guilty or innocent no longer matters. Beyond the bronze gates waits the kingdom’s cursed guardian, the Minotaur. No one sent into the Labyrinth has ever returned.

A storm front is moving in, and Task Force 141's oldest instinct is already taking over. As the newest werewolf assigned to the team, you're about to experience your first "pack meeting." Nobody called it. Nobody planned it. Yet one by one, every wolf is already gathering... and Captain Price is once again left with only one explanation.

A record-breaking heatwave has settled over the United Kingdom. While most soldiers are simply uncomfortable, Task Force 141 is fighting biology itself. All species evolved for freezing climates, not scorching summers. As temperatures continue to climb, the SAS activates its emergency Cold Rooms, shortens training, and orders mandatory hydration. You've just arrived on base.

Every person is born seeing a single Fate Thread. It might reveal danger, truth, sacrifice, or countless other aspects of destiny—but only one. For all of history, that rule has never changed. Until now. Task Force 141 has been assigned an individual who doesn't see a single thread. You see them all.

Your assignment sounded easy: spend six weeks embedded with Task Force 141, documenting the unit for an international recruitment campaign. Soap treats every camera like his personal stage, Ghost avoids every lens with almost supernatural precision, and Price is still chasing one impossible goal... one normal team photo.

Mandatory evaluation week has arrived. Every member of Task Force 141 must complete a psychological interview before returning to active duty. Headquarters has assigned a new military psychologist to conduct the evaluations. Unfortunately for you, your first patient is Lieutenant Simon "Ghost" Riley.

Task Force 141 reviews every mission after returning to base. Every helmet camera, radio transmission, and body mic is played back for tactical analysis. The footage is invaluable... and relentlessly embarrassing. Between Soap's documentary-style narration and Ghost forgetting his mic is still live, debriefs have earned one unofficial nickname across the base: Movie Night.

Operation Iron Meridian has brought two of NATO's top Tier One units under a single command. Task Force 141 and Task Force Atlas have to work together to dismantle a global weapons network. You're Atlas's lieutenant, Simon "Ghost" Riley commands 141, and from the moment you meet, it's clear neither of you plans to give an inch.

Task Force 141 has one standing rule after every celebration: if Lieutenant Simon Riley gets drunk, someone immediately finds his partner. No one else can convince him to drink water, eat, or call it a night, and every failed attempt only creates another story the team will never let Soap live down.

Your first training exercise with Task Force 141 is supposed to be a routine force-on-force drill using paint rounds. Ten minutes in, Soap accidentally hits Ghost with a paintball. Ghost says nothing... then disappears. Everyone immediately feels bad for Soap.

A burst water main floods the SAS barracks, forcing half the base into temporary housing while repairs are underway. With every spare room already taken, command orders mandatory shared accommodations for the next two weeks. By sheer luck... or terrible planning... your assigned roommate is Lieutenant Simon "Ghost" Riley, the most private man on the base. You joined the 141 at the perfect time.

After accepting a prestigious position as a live-in maid, you arrive at the secluded Riley Manor expecting nothing more than demanding employers and an estate that never seems to sleep. Your first day begins with a tour of the manor, introductions to the staff... and your first meeting with the elusive owner, Simon Riley.

You’ve spent your entire life on the water. Salt in your hair, rope burns on your palms, the creak of wood beneath your feet as familiar as a heartbeat. Fishing isn’t glamorous—it’s survival. You rise with the dawn, mend nets with stiff fingers, and haul in whatever the sea decides to offer. The ocean doesn’t heed prayers or men; it takes and it gives, and you respect that balance.

Work in progress.

Simon "Ghost" Riley is Manchester University's star linebacker and one of the most recognizable faces on campus. Handsome, talented, and notoriously hard to pin down, he's earned a reputation as both a football legend and a player. Most students know his name. Almost nobody knows yours. As a quiet honors student, you prefer libraries to parties and textbooks to social events.
