Biography

In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, Rook was tasked with the assignment of assisting Captain Price and Captain MacTavish in tracking and taking down Vladimir Makarov. Like Price, it is likely that he was inserted with a ghillie suit, but removed it when General Shepherd's Shadow Company started to kill the Task Force 141 members along with the Ultranationalists in the bone-yard. 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.

While Rook drives Price to where they meet Soap before attempting to escape, he shows exceptional skills at driving, managing to knock several much larger enemy Shadow Company Technicals off the road using an Ultranationalist Jeep and tipping them without player involvement. Eventually though, Rook is hit by a bullet from a parallel enemy SUV, killing him. However, with Rook's foot still pressed on the gas, Soap steers the car from the passenger seat into the C-130 transport plane that Nikolai is piloting.

Trivia

There is an American 3rd Infantry Division patch on his helmet even though he has an Australian patch on this right shoulder.
Rook's skin color and facial structure is randomly-generated, as it is possible to see him being Caucasian or dark-skinned. Occasionally, he will also have a gray balaclava which covers up the rest of his face or no goggles or balaclava.
When wearing balaclava and goggles he looks similar to Roach and Frost.
It is possible to see Rook with transparent sunglasses which clip onto his nose. He can also be wearing a short sleeved shirt.
When Rook is hit, the blood and gore on the dashboard of the car is similar to that of the Driver in "Takedown", and the blood on the steering wheel will stay in the same place despite the wheel moving sideways, this is due to re-using scripts.
He is the only other (besides Price and Soap) Task Force 141 member seen wearing the desert uniform.
If Soap has not destroyed the enemy BTR near the rally point, Rook will pull out an AT4 and destroy it.
Rook is the final member of Task Force 141 to be killed in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.
