Adam MacIntyre

"*You'll fucking pay for this one day, Mom, you hear me!? I hope you die in a fire, you fucking cunt! I hope you fucking die!*"
— Adam's last words to his mother in "Cradle to Grave"
**Adam MacIntrye** is a foul-mouthed, homophobic & disrespectful preteen player addicted to video games such as *Halo: Reach*, who served as a member of the hacker/cyberterrorist clan Chaos Theosis. He served as a supporting antagonist in Season 6 of Arby 'n' the Chief, and makes a cameo appearance in a flashback during the mid-season finale of Next Gen Season 1.

## Character History

### Before Chaos Theosis

Years before joining Chaos Theosis, Adam MacIntyre was born to his mother and father before his father would soon leave them both for unknown reasons. According to Adam's mom, he used to be a happy kid before his behavior deteriorated once he was introduced to online gaming.

### Rise of Chaos Theosis

When the Online Multiplayer Network Administration started the TOSERS initiative to police online gaming, Adam would be approached by Clyde Marston to join Chaos Theosis under the employment of Trent Donnovich. It is unclear if he was approached before or after Kylie Fitzgerald, but both Adam and Kylie joined the clan before Duncan Douglas. Eventually, all three would approach the MLG clan Unrivaled Fury to join them, and while Lockdown, Deadeye, and Road Rage declined, Duncan would accept the offer, making Lockdown resent him.

Sometime after, Adam and Chaos Theosis would film a warning message to the OMN Administration to shut down TOSERS, with Adam executing a player to show how serious they were. When the OMN didn't respond, they attacked a TOSERS tryout server personally. Adam's role within the anarchist group was primarily as an enforcer rather than a strategist being much more cruel and brutal with his mass bannings, and often using extremely foul and hateful language.

At one point, Adam and Duncan would corner Master Chief, Cameron Jones, and Cody Hammond, taunting them before the Arbiter would arrive and assassinate Adam before taking out Duncan shortly after. Adam would angrily claim how much he hated elites, before using a combination of a drop shield and a rocket launcher to destroy the tank that the survivors were using. Later, he and Duncan would corner the four in the back of Breakpoint, with Clyde executing Cameron shortly before a squad of TOSERS would run Adam and Chaos Theosis out.

However, this didn't stop Chaos Theosis's carnage, as they would continue moving through matchmaking and fragging everyone they came across. At one point, Adam would join Clyde in the private networks where they were checking the progress on the distribution of Fragban. Adam immediately recognized Master Chief and Arbiter from their earlier encounter in the evaluation match. A firefight would break out, with many of the hacker dealers being fragged along with a TOSER named Kevin. At one point, Adam would almost manage to kill Arbiter, right before he was almost fragged by Chief. However, he was miraculously saved by a sudden blackout taking place at Jon's apartment, causing their Xbox 360 to switch off, in turn kicking them from the game.

Shortly after, Adam and Chaos Theosis would infiltrate the TOSERS Hub Server with the help of Silent Strike, and would aid them in fragging every moderator he came across, including Leonard, the head moderator. Towards the end of the incursion, he would hold Claire Ferguson hostage with a remote grenade detonator. After Clyde allowed Arbiter and Chief to go unfragged, Adam would frag Claire before leaving with a sinister laugh.

Shortly after, Adam would use Claire's accounts to post hateful content online in an attempt to ruin her life forcing her to change all of her passwords.

### Fragging

After TOSERS was disbanded as a result of the successful attack, Master Chief and Arbiter decided to deal with Chaos Theosis themselves. They created a "Shit List", including all four members of Chaos Theosis, with Adam being the one they decide to eliminate first, because his fragging of Claire caused Arbiter to bare a grudge against him.

After being chased by the Arbiter and Chief to his custom map, Adam was finally cornered. His mother then entered his room with a corrections officer, informing him that he was to go to a correctional facility. While Adam broke down crying as he pitifully pleaded for them to reconsider, only for his mother blow off his hollow promises as she was at her wits end. He then called support from his friends, even The Arbiter and Chief, all of whom refused to support him. In the end, he was dragged away by the correctional facility officer, spouting swear words and yelling that he hoped to see his mother dead. Arbiter then proceeded to frag him as he was taken away.

### Legacy

Years after Adam's fragging, Duncan would recall that he was aware of Adam being in juvie, before noting that he was glad about it because the "kid was always an asshole." Months later, Speedzone would tell Clyde that he was nothing like Adam, despite the fact that both Clyde and Kylie saw him as very similar to him. Not too long after, Arbiter and Speedzone would have a similar final confrontation to Arbiter's final confrontation with Adam, with Speedzone losing due to something that happens in the real world out of his control. Arbiter would later note that Speedzone's fate mirrored Adam's in many ways.

## Personality

Adam's personality and attitude is very crude, short tempered and can be described as callous or evil. He had absolutely no respect for his mother, often calling her a "bitch" and a "whore" (however he did admit that he had had a slight bit of respect for her before she reached her breaking point). He also claims to hate school. He is always playing on his Xbox 360, which earns him a claim of having "nintenditis" from Kylie. He also throws tantrums a lot and claims *Halo: Reach* is his escape from reality. He has no sense of remorse, and revels in causing carnage and banning players, regardless of them being TOSERS or not.

He acts like he has full control over his house, or at least his room, and has no respect for anyone, possibly excepting Clyde, and hates anyone telling him what to do, constantly defying his mother, and even refused to visit his dying grandmother.

He also demonstrates rude behavior towards his "friends", going as far as threatening to ban one of them when they defy him, such as when he angrily reprimands one of them for saying he should give his mother more respect.

## Trivia

* Adam is said by Kylie to have "Nintenditis", a disorder where the affected person is so obsessed with gaming that they neglect everyday needs and in extreme cases defecate on themselves instead of pausing the game to go to the bathroom. There is a similarly named true disorder called Nintendinitis, which causes Arthritis in the hands of those who game frequently, but Nintenditis is not a real disorder.
* In a behind the scenes video, a rough draft script of the episode Femme Fatale revealed that Adam was Clyde's brother. As this idea never made it into the final cut of the episode, it is considered non-canon. In Next Gen, Clyde's last name is Marston, so this is confirmed to not be canon, at least for the Next Gen timeline.
* His gamertag is not a possible gamertag because it consists of characters that are not allowed in making an Xbox LIVE gamertag and it is too long.
* Adam shares a similar fate to Colin Hunt in season 7. Both him and Colin were forced off of their Xboxes by the police during a crucial moment.
* Adam's name may be a reference to the clown from Dead Rising, Adam MacIntyre.
* Adam is similar to Tyler King from Season 7. Both are members of a notorious clan of hackers who frag anyone they come across, are very malicious during matches, have very foul mouths, have short tempers, abusive to another living creature (Tyler physically abuses his dog Charlie whereas Adam verbally abuses his mother) both where fragged during a stand off against both Arbiter & Chief (Tyler gets mauled by Charlie and Adam is dragged away by Gordon Jones) which gives them enough time to frag both. Lastly, both were voiced by Khail Anonymous at some points.
* Adam is one of the main antagonists of the canonical Arby 'n' the Chief Season 8.
* Adam and Speedzone also have many parallels and similarities. Both Adam and Speedzone tend to talk in horrific and hateful manners, and are disliked by many their respective allies. Both also tend to talk negatively about their family members (Adam's being his mother and Speedzone's being his sister), and have a sort of unofficial rivalry with the Arbiter stemming from something they do to Claire.
	+ Speedzone's arc in the episode Flash Fact has the most parallels with Adam's arc in Cradle to Grave, including a scene where he says some truly disgusting things that alienate him to his friends, a chase scene where Arbiter and Chief chase him across several maps (in Speedzone's case, two games), and a chase scene on a racetrack that ends with something in real life that pulls both Speedzone and Adam away, allowing Arbiter to frag them.
	+ Speedzone and Adam also have had voice actor changes due to the first voice actors having to leave. Khail Anonymous would be replaced with Eric Watkin for Season 8, and John Carter would be replaced by Kunami13 for Speedzone.
