Early Life[]
Reese grew up in Boston, Massachussetts; hearing stories and rumors about the Chimerans over in Russia and Europe. He thought that they couldn't possibly reach the US; however by the 50s he started to eat those words when thousands of Chimeran Hybrids swarmed his hometown and his country. This led him to start resisting against the invaders and by his 20; he became a member of secret resistance movement in his city led by Michelle Allen.
Rise of Bellerophon[]
Outposts and bases had been established 4 years prior to Reese's arrival; which were used for ammunition, food, weapons and other neccesities. They lost contact with the base and Michelle ordered Reese and Felix Kirk to investigate what happend.
Upon investigating the site; they discovered that the base had been completely changed into a Conversion Center for Chimeran Hybrids. They returned back after being ordered by Michelle; however half way there; Felix was shot and killed by a Hybrid and Reese was captured.
Reese woke up in a Conversion Chamber; infected and unarmed; however before being sent to the next stage of conversion; he utilized an unearthly strength and smashed through the chamber before being transported elsewhere. He fought his way out and managed to return to headquarters. Once he returned; Igor Lebowski tested his DNA and found the Chimera Virus in his blood. He explained to Reese that it is in him; however it has bonded to his DNA on a microscopic level and has not turned him like Nathan Hale; however it has granted him powers and abilities to match the Chimerans. Lebowski later creates a serum out of this and Reese has constructed a new weapon out of an Auger, a Folsom M5A2 Carbine and a Bullseye; naming this new weapon the BR-60.
Sooner than he thought; Reese was on the battlefield; liberating the US from the Chimerans and saving survivors wherever he could.
