== History ==
Sometime before the war, Jake's brother fought in the British Armed Forces during World War III to repel the Eurasian Coalition forces from Western Europe. Shortly afterwards he was killed in a bomb attack, the cause of which is not known, but it was very upsetting for Jake. He was raised in the London Fallout shelter and enlisted in the Republican Army in 2068 at the age of 18. Loyal to his army, the Republic and its government, he carried out his orders without a word, taking part in dangerous missions on the surface. However, in 2076, he realized that he had to kill innocent survivors in order to extend the Republic's reign, and to find a secret file that the survivors were keeping from the Republic. Jake resisted the order and was framed as a traitor and was to be executed, but Jake and his like-minded companions escaped. Jake and his men took revenge against the Republic, planning a remote ambush, but during their journey they were attacked by a group of survivors who thought they were murderers and slaughtered Jake's compatriots. This left Jake very shaken and angry and he then chose a much darker path.
