  • Nathan Hale

    The main character in both Resistance games has been Nathan Hale, a soldier originally from South Dakota. Before the events of the games, Hale had been involved in an accident during a live fire exercise that led to the deaths of most of his squad members and serious injury to himself. The accident was blamed on faulty munitions. After being rehabilitted both physically and mentally, Hale returned to active duty. His commanding officers often granted him high-risk missions because of his excellence as a soldier, but concerns were constantly raised about his psychological well-being.

    Hale volunteered in a military project, known as Project Abraham. Outwardly the project was supposed to be experiments to find a cure for the European Influenza epidemic, but it was really testing a vaccine against the Chimeran virus. Hale was the only test subject to survive and therefore developed a limited immunity to the virus.

    During the events of the first Resistance game, Hale is infected with the Chimeran virus, but is not completely transformed by it. He gains certain aspects of the Chimera, such as yellow eyes and increased strength, but still remains in control of his mental state. In the begininng of Resistance 2 Hale is teamed with others who are semi-resistant to the virus and is tasked with helping to lead the fight to save the United States from the Chimeran invasion.Wikia.com: Resistance Wiki - Nathan Hale
