Rook (Modern Warfare 2)

Rook was a Task Force 141 member from the Australian Special Air Service. He participated in the mission to bring down Vladimir Makarov at the U.S. Vehicle Disposal Yard 437, 160 miles southwest of Kandahar, Afghanistan.

Biography
Rook was tasked with the assignment of assisting Captain Price and Captain "Soap" MacTavish in tracking and taking down Vladimir Makarov. Like Price, it is likely that he was inserted with a ghillie suit but ditched it when General Shepherd's Shadow Company started to kill the Task Force 141 members along with the Ultranationalists in the boneyard. He met up with Captain Price to acquire transport so that the team could link up with Nikolai's C-130 and exit from the area.

Rook drives Price to where they meet Soap before attempting to escape, Rook shows exceptional skills at driving managing to knock several enemy vehicles off the road and tipping them without player involvement. Sadly while driving towards Nikolai's C-130 on the runway, Rook is killed instantly by a bullet from a parallel enemy SUV. However, with Rook's foot still pressed on the gas, Soap steers the car from the passenger seat, into the C-130 plane that Nikolai is driving.

Trivia

 * It is impossible to save Rook from dying in "The Enemy Of My Enemy". Rook is scripted to die after being shot in order for the player to take hold of the wheel and extract out of the hot zone.
 * In some cases, a glitch may occur in which Rook does not die. If this happens, you will always fail in the attempt of trying to get in Nikolai's plane.
 * There is an American 3rd Infantry Division patch on his helmet even though he has an Australian patch on this right shoulder, this is possibly because the USA is the biggest financier behind TF141 thus the equipment being taken from American production lines, this is shown by the fact that all the helmets TF141 use are of the US Army shape. However, he might of brought his issued helmet from Australia. He wears trousers with desert MARPAT camouflage.
 * Rook is the only TF141 member whose body is actually extracted; everyone else is inevitably left behind.
 * When Rook dies, the blood on the dashboard of the car is similar to when the Driver in Takedown got shot.
 * It is possible to destroy the car in which the man who kills Rook is in. Simply grab an RPG at the beginning of the level, take careful aim, and fire. Rook will still die, however.
 * Rook appears in Modern Warfare: Mobilized as the driver of a boat in the level Interception.
