Dead Cell
From the Metal Gear Wiki
Dead Cell were first formed as a small government organisation who would trigger seemingly random terrorist attacks in order to give Navy SEALs and Marine Corps trainees a taste of real anti-terrorism missions. But when their original leader died the group became more and more extreme, until only three of them were left, then Solidus Snake chose them to help him takeover the Big Shell (along with Olga Gurlukovich's renegade army) and steal Arsenal Gear.
Dead Cell, as part of the S3 Plan to recreate the events of the Shadow Moses incident, was carefully chosen to carry out "roles" to maintain the recreation; Dead Cell stood in for FOXHOUND. Fatman, an explosive specialist, appeared to go renegade and attempt to destroy the Big Shell, ruining the Sons of Liberty's plans. In reality, he was a Patriot agent assigned to test Raiden's progress: if the Big Shell was destroyed, the simulation was over. The Patriots dragged Peter Stillman into the situation in order to coax the man. Fortune had a device planted on her to convince her that she was immortal as it deflected bullets away from her.
The entire team was wiped out during the incident, save for Vamp, who survived the ordeal and later took part in Liquid Ocelot's insurrection in the Middle East.
The known members of Dead Cell are:
- Colonel Jackson - deceased
- Vamp
- Fortune
- Fatman
- Chinaman (Cut)
- Old Boy (Cut)
- Solidus Snake (a.k.a. George Sears)
