Ryan Wilson

Ryan Wilson is a chief detective in the homicide department and a member of the UEG Police Department. After a nearly fatal incident in the UNSC’s Special Forces, he ended his ODST career and moved into Law Enforcement. He works alongside his best friend, Mark Frost, who also chose to opt out of the UNSC Special Forces to pay for his college. His cases become more difficult to solve, thus earning him his wish for the promotion of lieutenant and later even captain. His most difficult case was tracking down Kyle Craig, a psychopath that he felt compelled to end the life of. After the death of his boss, Chris Logan, he became the departments new Chief of Police. He is married to his wife, Desiree, and has two kids, Daniel and Sarah, and a German Shepard named Max.

Early life
Ryan was born on October 17, 2563 in the City of Washington D.C. Little is actually known about his child life, except that his father was a sergeant of the UNSC marine corps and his mother had been a baker at a nearby bakery. At school he got along with his peers during his primary education and had a zero tolerance for bullies. His often saw many fights while he was in high school and ended a fight where Mark Frost had been the victim. This had sparked their friendship and the two hanged out together, participating in school activities. While outside of school the two would box together, and Ryan even taught Mark self-defense and encouraged him to enroll in a martial arts school. During their senior year they both displayed interest in the UNSC military, hearing about Spartans and ODST soldiers chasing down insurrectionists. They joined right after graduation.

UNSC Career

Mission to Kuwaiti
Ryan and Mark enlisted into the UNSC Marine Corps and was assigned with rooting out insurrectionists and criminals on various colonies. While engaging in very few active firefights, he was tasked with keeping the peace and prevention.

His first mission he was assigned on the insurrectionist-controlled colony of Kuwaiti. There had been a fight that had broken out between a few insurrectionists and criminals. The fight didn’t last long as peacekeepers attempted to break up the fight through the use of tear gas. Unsuccessful, the UNSC soldiers stepped in and attempted to shoot anyone if the fight turned violent. Angered by the UNSC’s presence the fight broke out three ways: the innies targeted the criminals and the UNSC; the criminals targeted the innies and the UNSC; and the UNSC targeted both the innies and the criminals, desperate to keep the peace. Ryan and Mark agreed to split up and broke off into two groups. While Mark provided suppression fire on the ground, Ryan slipped into a motel and provided cover fire from the balcony. With a stubborn sergeant barking orders for Ryan to return to position, he was shot in the shoulder and fell to the ground. Mark was too busy keeping the fight at bay, so Ryan jumped to the rescue. Ryan gave his position away and more criminals stormed on his position. Ryan took cover by the wall and took down some enemies by blind fire, but it was not enough, so he tossed a frag grenade killing the criminals. He ran quickly, bullets whipping past him until he made it to the sergeant. He helped him out by putting bio foam on his shoulder to temporary relieve the pain, then provided cover fire until the Pelican had arrived to pick them up.

The mission was over for Ryan, but not for Mark. Mark had been dropped into a warehouse to defuse any criminal activity and destroy the warehouse, which served as a criminal safe house. Ryan on the other hand had to tend to the sergeants wounds until they made it to a medical facility.

Becoming an ODST
The UNSC Sergeant had recovered a few weeks later and gave Ryan and Mark an offer; to join the Orbital Drop Shock Troopers. They both agreed and upon rigorous training and completion of boot camp they were sent on yet another mission with the team known as Delta-Seven.

Personality
During his time as an ODST he was honorable, courageous, and decisive with a strong sense of loyalty and justice. He was also a quick thinker and tactician, able to plan out different routes and options to get an objective completed as fast and efficient as possible with minimal casualties. This later earned him a quick spot into the UEG Police Department along with his intelligent thinking and his tactical approach to things.

When he learned of Josh Konaree’s recruitment into the UEG Police Department, he felt jealous, which quickly built up into annoyance and anger. He had been forced by his boss to form a working relationship with the elite, one that would bother him over the course of the Walter Richardson case. When he learned of Mark’s murder, he felt resentful for Josh and saw that he was the only friend he had left. He settled their past differences to work towards a common goal.

He also appears to have a hard approach while interrogating his enemies and often gets frustrated when he doesn’t get the information he looks for. This leads to him being comforted by his partner or by his boss. He later learns that the hard approach doesn’t always work out and instead he probes for information; preferring a more human, interpersonal, and intuitive set of methods. He also seeks counseling to control his anger and frustration.
