History[edit]
Gavin MacLeish is a former MI6 scalphunter. Originally a Royal Marine with the Comacchio Group fleet protection and anti-terrorism unit, he transferred into the Special Boat Service in time to serve in Afghanistan. MI6 spotted his talent for infiltration and mayhem, and recruited him for clandestine counter-terrorism and targeted killing operations. After one too many dubious missions, he resigned and now lives in Scotland as a notable military modeller. However, he still keeps contact with many former friends and allies from his old life.
