Caleb Dunne

Caleb Dunne is an agent for the Strategic Homeland Division, stationed in New York City. He is featured in various promotional material for Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 and is a protagonist  of Tom Clancy’s The Division: Extremis Malis.
After his friend and fellow Division agent Mathias Kaminsky was killed by the Black Tusk operative Mantis, Dunne left New York to pursue his partner’s killer across the eastern United States. He eventually formed a cell alongside agents Heather Ward and Brian Johnson.
==Biography==
Caleb Dunne served as a Combat Medic Specialist in the U.S. Army before becoming an emergency medical technician in New York City. His extraordinary combat record and solid reputation caught the attention of SHD recruiters, and he was recruited soon afterwards.
Dunne eventually formed a close bond with fellow agent Mathias Kaminsky. During the Green Poison pandemic in Manhattan, they were both activated as part of The Division’s First Wave. One of their first missions together was locating Padilla, a "fixer" loosely associated with the Last Man Battalion. The pair tracked him to Greenwich Village, where they coerced him to become a Division asset instead.

Following the death of Charles Bliss, the remnants of the LMB were revitalized when they suddenly began receiving heavy weaponry from an unknown supplier. Based on information from Padilla, Acting Commander Faye Lau assigned Kaminsky and Dunne to raid a warehouse in Chinatown and apprehend the weapons supplier, with support from the JTF. The operation ended in tragedy when Kaminsky was killed by a female operative named Mantis, who sliced his throat and escaped. 
Dunne eventually tracked Mantis to the North River Wastewater Plant, where he witnessed her talking with rogue agent Ike Ronson. He found Mantis’s safehouse underground, which contained loose SHD Smart Watches and a map detailing operations across the East Coast, including between New York City and Philadelphia. Mantis returned and, after a scuffle, activated the hideout’s self-destruct explosives and fled. Dunne barely escaped, and was recovered by JTF personnel. After recovering, Dunne left New York City for Philadelphia, in pursuit of Mantis.
In New Jersey, Dunne encountered fellow SHD agent Heather Ward, who invited him to the nearby Camden Settlement. They found the settlement under attack by The Founders, a local insurrectionist faction, and fended them off together. With the help of a defector named Timmy, the trio infiltrated the Founder's headquarters at Independence Hall in Philadelphia. They recovered a SATCOM transceiver, then destroyed the armory with explosive charges, although Timmy was shot and killed during their escape.
In hopes of decrypting the transceiver, Dunne and Ward traveled to Fort Meade and met another agent, Brian Johnson, who joined their cell. The three agents bonded and recuperated for several weeks, until the NSA tracked Mantis' signal a farm outside Fredrick. The team killed Mantis's Black Tusk soldiers and destroyed Mantis' escape vehicle. Dunne overpowered Mantis and began choking her to death in a rage, only relenting at Ward's insistence. As they detained Mantis, the SHD Network went offline, and their watches displayed the coordinates “38.8975, -77.0375”. The trio then escorted Mantis to the nearby Fort Detrick, only to find it destroyed. A Black Tusk sniper then shot Mantis through the head and departed.
No longer seeking revenge, Dunne and his cell subsequently followed their watch coordinates to Washington, D.C., where they arrived two weeks later.

In Washington D.C.’s West End, Dunne and his fellow Division agent Melisa Corluka were interviewed by journalist Alex Takahashi regarding their experiences during the initial outbreak. Their conversation was preserved via ECHO.
When Aaron Keener and the Cleaners resurfaced at Coney Island, Dunne left Washington, D.C. and returned to New York alongside Ward and Johnson. His fate thereafter is unknown. 
==Personality==
Although Dunne is known for his tenacity and drive, he never quite reconciled being both a warrior and a healer. He was initially jovial and light-hearted when operating alongside Matthias Kaminsky; after his friend's death, his gave himself over fully to his warrior side, becoming singularly obsessed with hunting down Mantis and exacting revenge. 
Unlike his teammate Heather Ward, Dunne showed no remorse in taking lives or endangering bystanders like Timmy for his own ends, and although he felt some measure of guilt over Timmy's death, he continued to mask his personal vendetta as a mission on behalf of The Division. While Ward and Johnson relaxed and enjoyed hobbies like art and sports during their stay at Fort Meade, Dunne merely grew restless at the lull in action and eager to continue pursuing Mantis, fearing she may have already changed her modus operandi. 
It was only as Dunne was choking Mantis to death that he ultimately chose to stay true to The Division and his humanity, sparing her life and letting go of his hatred, which he realized brought him only emptiness. Shortly afterwards, Mantis' assassination, the destruction of Fort Detrick, and the loss of the SHD Network frightened Dunne, who could not imagine what group could have carried out a plan on such a scale.
