Nathan "The Wolf" is a contract assassin and an ally of Harry and Helen Tasker.

Biography

At some point, Nathan came into contact with Omega Sector, who hired him as a contract assassin for jobs they couldn't be directly associated with. He once waited five days in a tree to get a shot at a warlord in Myanmar. At an unknown point in time, Omega Sector worked with the Wolf to take out the man responsible for the Athens station bombing. Harry Tasker ran clean-up after the Wolf completed the assassination. It was one of the worst operations Harry did, as the witnesses were hysterical; screaming, crying, and talking about how the Wolf's eyes were "bottomless wells of darkness." Harry didn't meet him because he went to a gyro after slaughtering the bomber.

Personality

Nathan is a self-described sociopath incapable of feeling guilt, remorse, sadness, contentment, or happiness. He has a general disregard for human life, having no qualms with killing the people he's hired to assassinate. In fact, he often gets hungry after completing a job, no matter how gruesome or troubling the situation might have been. He's never turned down a job or visited the psych doctor afterwards. His reputation garnered him notoriety within Omega Sector, turning him into a legend that few agents crossed paths with. However, Nathan has antisocial tendencies, as he has trouble fitting in with those around him, a trait he's had since he was a child. Since he can't feel emotions, nor does he share common interests with the rest of his peers, he studies them so he can properly assess their overall well-being and figure out how to properly insert himself.

Nathan befriends the warm and emotionally mature Helen Tasker who believes he isn't broken, but just a seed waiting to grow. This gives him hope and they form a unique friendship, as he picks up on her feelings of being isolated and helps her with her training. However, when her husband Harry insults Nathan by calling him a "murderous psycho", Nathan considers killing Harry. It was only Helen's words that made him decide not to follow through with his plan. Instead, he completed the mission which entailed killing several enemies and then went for a grilled cheese.
