THQ's Homefront 2/Lisa Moore

## Lisa Moore

**Document Status: Yellow [Work in progress]**

## Background

**Lisa Moore** is a Resistance cell leader affiliated to the Activist philosophy. She's 29 years old and was a strong career minded woman, somewhat reminiscent of Rebecca Brooks. Pre-Invasion she worked at a PR firm and understands how to manipulate public opinion and conduct campaigns. This knowledge had bred an arrogance and sense of superiority, but Lisa could turn on the charm when she felt the need to. However, the invasion has changed her dramatically.

When the Occupation began she moved in with her brother's family. As a Philadelphia City Police Officer, Lisa’s brother was on the KPA's list of potential resistors, so they soon came for him. When he refused to leave his home, Rebecca was forced to watch as he and his family were killed. She didn't try to help and although there was nothing she could have done now suffers from survivor guilt. The trauma has led to an implacable hatred for the KPA. She also despises anyone who accepts the occupation and fails to fight back as this reminds her of her own inaction at the death of her relatives.

She believed the KPA could be defeated by ending the passivity of occupied Americans and persuading them to rise up and fight back against their oppressors, Lisa used her PR skills to wage campaigns and to attempt to counter the ubiquitous KPA propaganda machine. However, she will also fight and believes everyone should be prepared to sacrifice anything to defeat the KPA--their destruction is her sole concern. Now that the EU invasion is a possibility she is desperate for it to happen as she recognises this as the best chance to utterly defeat the KPA in America. She has become utterly humourless and eschews any pleasures or close personal relationships, but her iron determination inspires her followers.

She's extremely strong willed and tries to dictate events but she will reluctantly compromise in order to further her goals. Her group is a fairly youthful mix of college student radicals from various disciplines, along with other patriots who’ve had training in interactive and traditional media. For example, the Resistance “hobo signs”, one of the rebels’ discrete communication systems, were designed by an Activist artist who once created corporate logos.

She accepts Mailman as she will use anyone who is prepared to take action. She is initially brother's in arms with Parrish and Wong and respects Burnett for the help he provides but after Burnett's betrayal she becomes more insular and authoritarian and seeks to completely dominate events to ensure nothing goes wrong to prevent the Invasion.

### Independence Hall

* Lisa is organising a rescue attempt for Walker when Mailman and Burnett arrive, as Walker's trial would be a powerful propaganda coup for the KPA which cannot be allowed to happen

### Fairmount

* Relieved that the agent has been kept out of the clutches of the KPA she throws herself into the invasion preparations, absolutely nothing else matters to her now
