*"Let us show those traitors that this country truly belongs to the Wolves in the history of mankind." - Flynn's battle cry to his warriors*

**Flynn Lyall** (informally known as the "Wolf") is one of the supporting antagonists in the "Raider" timeline and is a hidden main antagonist in the 12th and 13th chapters of the "Raider: Last Blood" series.

Like his namesake, Flynn is a former soldier of the USMC and lone wolf terrorist that wanted to enslave the entire United States under an iron fist and used several means to gain control.

## Background

Born in July 19, 2012, Flynn was born in a Southern state (preferably Oklahoma or Texas) in a military family. While nothing is known about his childhood, it's hinted by Flynn that his mother died during surgery and his father spent most of his time training him into a fierce fighting machine until he died from unknown causes. As an orphan, Flynn became a drifter and began to hunt and live like a survivalist until he joined the Marines at the age of 18. Due to his fierce leadership abilities and solitary nature, his fellow Marines gave him the moniker "the Wolf".

During his time, Flynn deserted his post after constant combat with the Front for months, going AWOL in the process. As time goes by, Flynn became a mercenary and began working with various paramilitary groups to make himself decent money. He also turned against his handlers and employers before taking control of their operations and becoming a leader of his private army. Due to his constant crimes against humanity, Flynn became the world's most dangerous man alive and a feared terrorist by his tactics.

## Biography

In the Raider: Last Blood series, Flynn managed to come back to the United States and married Sophia Tucker, the current United States president, to both change his surname and gain easier access to the country's control. As his army attacked Washington DC, Flynn managed to betray the Secret Service agents guarding Tucker and despite being slightly overpowered, Flynn subdues Sophia and within less than 10 minutes, Flynn and his army have managed to take full control of the entire United States (mostly Washington DC). As the war between his private army and the Southern Coalition escalated, Flynn became more and more unhinged and desperate to keep control of the country, having tortured and even killed numerous civilians in front of national television to prove a point.

As the army began to disband and fail due to constant losses from the Coalition and lack of loyalist support, Flynn and his remaining loyalists are prepared for an all-out war and being the only one left, Flynn fought Jay in a brutal H2H fight and despite Flynn gaining a slight advantage due to his extensive combat experience, Jay managed to beat Flynn to a pulp and left him for dead as he succumbed to his wounds. With Flynn's death, the United States is partially destroyed and without Sophia's leadership intact, the country quickly became uninhabitable, except for Jay and most of the Southern Coalition, who managed to help rebuild the country's infrastructure.

However, Flynn survived his attack with severe burn wounds and managed to rebuild his army to once again fight the Southern Coalition. He started the war by methodically taking out high-ranking members of the Southern Coalition and even Sophia Tucker. Unfortunately for him, the United States became more defensive upon hearing of the deaths, and with the help of Jared Tucker (who's Sophia's brother and now the new president of the United States), the Southern Coalition, the remaining police/military forces, and the citizens managed to wipe out most of Flynn's army in his compound and Flynn is eventually caught by Jay and they engage in a brutal fist fight. As Flynn gains the upper hand, Jay quickly subdues Flynn and as he walks away, Flynn's men (having had enough of his threats and abuse) turn against him and wanted Jay's permission to kill him, which Jay agrees, which caused the once ruthless tyrant to freak out and begs Jay to kill him as his men took him away.

With Flynn's death and the disbandment of his private army, the United States is completely rebuilt, and Jay retired from his job.

## Personality

From his first appearance and his interactions with the citizens and Sophia, Flynn appeared to be a very calm, collected, and compassionate man that seemed to support the country and honored its armed forces to a degree. However, as his army attacked the White House and Washington DC, Flynn's true nature is revealed to be a ruthless, cunning, manipulative, and violent dictator that was willing to betray his wife and take over the country. He is shown to be a Darwinist, hating that the weak are nothing to him and that by being stronger, he can survive against everything, including a revolution.

Unlike most of the antagonists in the series, Flynn is shown to be far more dangerous and depraved, having enslaved the entire country, committing mass genocide, raped and enslaved Sophia with no hesitation, and was more than willing to kill his men if they disobeyed his orders or betrayed him. He's extremely aggressive and sadistic, taking great pleasure in torturing, raping, and killing anyone that posed as an immediate threat and his vicious and sadistic nature is notably shown during his takeover and his fight with Jay Roberts. Despite his depravity and sadism, Flynn is highly intelligent and cunning, having planned out the whole attack step-to-step, leading a private army to enslave a significant portion of the country, and having lured Jay into a trap.

He is also shown to have deep respect towards anyone that stood against him, as shown during his fight with Jay, and admits that he didn't want to kill him and liked him, which showed that Flynn was either lying to gain an unfair advantage or he actually respected the man for his considerable skill in combat and presumably wanted to turn him onto his side (given his unpredictable nature, it's never known yet and it could have been both).

However, Flynn came back and his ruthless and violent traits have shown to be more intense as the final chapter progressed, becoming more capable of capturing and killing even innocent people to accomplish his goal of vengeance and having killed Sophia Tucker in retaliation. He also set up the assassinations of several Southern Coalition high-ranking members and displayed their corpses to strike fear into the country, showing that Flynn isn't giving up his mission and is now willing to destroy the country if he wouldn't take it back by force, displaying a desperate and prideful persona to his unhinged personality.

As shown during his fights, Flynn is much more eager and aggressive in combat, fighting against Jay Roberts and his army with ease than before. However, it's shown that when fighting against Jay, Flynn is shown to be a complete coward, having murdered the high-ranking members of the Southern Coalition without directly fighting them and is willing to send his men to kill Jay to detonate the bomb and is willing to fight dirty by having his men distract Jay to land some blows during his final fight, which does hint that Flynn is now truly afraid of Jay after his first fight and is now desperate to kill him rather than sparing him while maintaining his cool persona.

However, Flynn didn't care about dying as his goals succeeded and after being beaten badly, he smirks at Jay and tries to goad him into killing him, showing an arrogant and fearless attitude. However, Flynn's attitude changed drastically as his abuse toward his men caused them to turn against him, and when Jay gave them the command to kill him, devolving from his arrogant and fearless attitude to a fearful and desperate tone, begging Jay to kill him and even breaks down crying that he doesn't want to die by his men, showing a contrast to his ruthless persona.

In short, Flynn is truly shown as a depraved, vicious, and cold-blooded murderer and ruthless tyrant that never cared about anyone else, except for himself and the people that he trusted. His extremely violent tendencies and desire for blood ultimately led Flynn to his well-deserved downfall and died as a bloodthirsty, arrogant, and cowardly dictator that only wanted power and country over one of the strongest nations.

## Appearance

Flynn is an American man and judging by his appearance, he is often described as a lady-killer. Flynn is 6'4 and has notable facial traits (his puppy dog-like gray eyes, sharp jawline, and triangular nose). He also has pale skin and a muscular and slender frame. He has long brown hair and a heavy stubble beard.

However, Flynn returned and is now shown with the right half of his body badly burned and now has shorter and less facial hair than before. He wore USMC combat fatigues with makeshift armor to prepare for war against Jay and his coalition force.

## Skills

* **High Intelligence**: Despite his bloodthirsty and vicious attitude, Flynn was shown to be a highly intelligent and methodical man and was highly adaptable to almost any situation given to him. He is extremely level-headed and can handle extreme stress to get out of dangerous situations by using the environment around him. He was capable of using his charm and polite side to gain the trust of enemies to blend in and to complete his task without them knowing that he was there within their sights.
* **Criminology**: As a former mercenary, Flynn has exceptional insight into how the criminal underworld operated and how illegal activities work, such as mercenary groups. He also displayed extensive knowledge of illegal narcotics and weaponry, able to tell what he could do for moving them into the compound.
* **Intimidation**: Due to his title as "The Wolf" and his exceptional combat abilities, Flynn is widely known and feared within the world and was so infamous that even his title strikes fear and terror into the hearts and souls of his enemies and his victims that incurred his wrath. Flynn used his combat abilities and title to lure enemies away from him, even using his victims' corpses to serve as an intimidation factor to scare the Southern Coalition.
* **Skilled Physician**: Flynn appears to have extensive knowledge of human anatomy and physiology, as well as intermediate first aid and medicine. He is shown to be extremely knowledgeable in pressure points, as shown during his fights with Jay.
* **Master Tactician**: As a former Infantryman of the USMC, Flynn is highly capable of casing out, planning, and executing plans, assassinations, and raids. He is a skilled interrogator, capable of presenting facts and telling lies without inducing intense emotion. He is a very effective leader and mentor, having trained, fought, and led his private army into various battles with strategic facts and thinking, which made him far more dangerous than being a lone wolf. He's also capable of spotting certain flaws within his environment and using any methods deemed necessary to accomplish his goals. As shown in the constant war against the Southern Coalition, Flynn is a strong and fierce leader to the core, having commanded and led a massive number of skilled mercenaries both to protect the compound and fight against the rebel forces.
* **Connections**: Having worked with various paramilitary groups, Flynn has a vast set that he can use to gain an advantage over his enemies, even with government officials while blending in.
* **Master Marksman**: As shown in various fights, Flynn is extremely proficient with firearms, including pistols, revolvers, rifles, and shotguns, as well as being frighteningly precise with eliminating targets in both close-range and long-range distances (as shown during his fights). He's also skilled with using and firing heavier weaponry, such as grenade launchers, light machine guns, and flamethrowers as well as using mounted weaponry. Due to his extensive knowledge of guerrilla tactics, Flynn has shown to be extremely skilled in scavenging and using whatever firearm that the enemy has to achieve his goals.
* **Master Martial Artist**: Having been a former USMC Infantryman, Flynn is shown to be an incredibly skilled hand-to-hand fighter. His fighting style is mostly improvised and is consisted of Kickboxing, Krav Maga, Eskrima, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Judo, and Sambo. Despite his large size, he can quickly outmaneuver, outmatch, and outlast his opponents, even capable of taking on multiple opponents at once. He also sometimes makes use of dirty tactics (such as eye gouges, biting, and striking the groin) and the environment around him to gain an advantage.
* **Knife Mastery**: Flynn is highly skilled in wielding blades, such as knives and axes. Combined with his extensive knowledge of anatomy and intense experience in Kali, Flynn can use blades to find a suitable angle to either wound or kill an opponent in a fight.
* **Peak Human Condition**: As a former soldier of the United States Marines, Flynn has displayed peak human physicality for a man of his age. He's extremely athletic, and his strength, stamina, speed, agility, reflexes, durability, and pain threshold are in top condition.
* **Peak Human Strength**: Despite his slender build, Flynn is very strong, capable of overpowering and restraining even larger opponents, knocking out or outright killing a skilled Southern Coalition soldier with a single strike, breaking their bones and necks with ease, and breaking through walls and glass with some ease.
* **Peak Human Durability**: Flynn is highly resilient and sturdy due to his time on the battlefield. Flynn can survive multiple gunshot wounds, stabbings/slashes, and blunt force trauma without feeling that much pain. The greatest feats of his durability were surviving a brutal stab wound to his abdomen and multiple burn wounds on half of his body. His durability also made him tougher to kill, as evidenced during his fight against Jay.
* **Peak Human Speed**: Flynn is extremely fast, especially for a man of his age and size. Flynn can outrun his opponents and can run and sprint far distances uninterrupted.
* **Peak Human Agility**: Flynn has extreme amounts of stamina. He can fight for considerate amounts of time and run great distances uninterrupted. He can vault, scale, and traverse through difficult terrains and obstacles with ease. Even with being extremely injured or tired, Flynn required little time to recover before continuing the fight.
* **Peak Human Reflexes**: Flynn has incredible reflexes. Due to his time on the battlefield, Flynn has displayed a fast reaction time, as he can evade bullets and melee attacks during combat with ease. Due to his expertise in guerrilla warfare, Flynn can correctly assess the situation, understand the purpose, and react effectively, making it harder for the enemy to outwit him in the field.
* **High Pain Tolerance**: Despite his strong combat proficiency, Flynn has been frequently injured by Jay more than once, but demonstrates a higher tolerance to pain, being able to survive near-fatal injuries, such as gunshot wounds, blunt force trauma, and physical blows with ease. As shown in his fights with both Jay and various Southern Coalition soldiers, Flynn has shown that he can outlast and outwit them by using his injuries against them, opening them up for a counter-attack.

## Equipment

* **Colt M1911A1:** Flynn's main sidearm. He acquired the Colt from encountering one of his guys and is seen heavily using the pistol against the rebel forces on several occasions before being disarmed after failing to kill Jay with the pistol. The Colt M1911A1 is shown to be a Rock Island Armory M1911A1 GI Standard by the logo, the chrome ejection port, and the dark parkerized finish.
* **Noveske N4 CQB:** Flynn's main weapon. He acquired the rifle from his cache and is seen using the rifle against the rebel forces before switching to his sidearm upon running out of ammunition. His rifle has a VLTOR VIS upper, an EOTech 552 sight, a Magpul AFG, and Magpul PMags.

## Deaths

**Murders committed by Flynn**:

* **28 ARF Soldiers**: Shot to death
* **50 Unnamed Handlers and Employers**: Executed to take over their armies

**Murders connected to Flynn**:

* **500+ Unknown Mercenaries**: Executed (offscreen and heavily implied)

## Death

**Killed by:**

* Jay Roberts (indirectly caused)
* His men (directly caused)

After losing the fight with Jay, Flynn arrogantly goads Jay into killing him, which Jay simply ignores by walking away. However, his lieutenant asked Jay if Jay wants to kill him or if they (the soldiers) can, and when Jay agrees, they take Flynn (who is now begging Jay to kill him and crying in fear), toss him into a van, and drove away.

It's heavily implied that Flynn was brutally beaten, raped, and tortured by his men before being brutally murdered and mutilated beyond recognition, and according to Wade Bryan, the bones on his arms and legs were broken to a point there was barely any bone left, cracked ribs, a fractured skull, and much more before succumbing to his injuries.

## Trivia

* Flynn is the evilest and most depraved antagonist from the entire "Raider" series, having beaten a significant portion of the antagonists by being far more cruel, ambitious, and intelligent and nearly accomplished his goal.
* Unlike most of the antagonists (some had redeeming qualities), Flynn appeared to have no redeeming qualities and is truly shown as a depraved monster, having killed 2,347 people during the time he was alive.
* Even if Flynn succeeded in killing Jay and wiping out the Southern Coalition, his rule on the nation wouldn't last so long since the citizens and military could still capture him regardless and even if he succeeded or not, Flynn would have still died, no matter what by either the remnants of the rebels, his men, or the military.
