Other characters of Command & Conquer

This page lists the characters of the Command & Conquer: Tiberian series who are aligned with neither the Global Defense Initiative (GDI) nor the Brotherhood of Nod.

The Forgotten

Tratos

Tratos was the leader of The Forgotten. He originally helped Kane by translating the Tacitus before being rescued by GDI Forces. After his rescue he began to work with GDI to find a way to stop the spread of tiberium and reverse the harmful effects it has had on the planet. Tratos developed an experimental cure for Tiberium poisoning at the end of Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun, but the serum proved ineffective. In Tiberian Sun: Firestorm, Tratos was assassinated on CABAL's orders, who saw him as a threat, being the only other sentient capable of translating the Tacitus. His assassination caused massive fallout between GDI forces and The Forgotten. It also caused massive riots between civilians and mutants, who suspected that GDI was trying to kill them by poisoning food and water. Following Tratos' assassination the GDI leaders decided to reactivate CABAL in order to translate the Tacitus.

Tratos was played by Christopher Winfield in Tiberian Sun. Patrick Bauchau portrays Tratos in Tiberian Sun: Firestorm. {{-}}

Umagon

One of the fiercest warriors of the Forgotten and favourite underling of Tratos, Umagon is an excellent hand-to-hand fighter. She was subject to extreme Tiberium exposure, which turned her into a mutant.

Little is known AbOUT her prior to her encounter with GDI forces in Tiberian Sun. She penetrated a large Brotherhood of Nod aircraft and was encountered by GDI commanders Michael McNeil and Chandra, when they were exploring the interior of the strange ship. Eventually, she struck a deal with the Global DeFence Initiative, trading general Vega's location for saving Tratos, the Forgotten's leader.

She would eventually serve as a sort of ambassador of the Forgotten to GDI, aiding commander McNeil with advice, providing tactical information or even pinpointing the location of the prototype fighter manufacturing plant. Unfortunately, she was captured by Nod following the last assignment, and taken to Kane's headquarters in Cairo, where she'd be subject to the Divination process.

The process could not have been completed though, as McNeil rescued Umagon and Tratos administered an experimental Tiberium mutantion antidote to her. However, this would prove to be an error, as the antidote caused her to mutate horribly and forced Tratos to confine her to a straitjacket in a padded cell. She is assumed to have died of the mutations shortly after Firestorm began.

Umagon was portrayed by Christine Steel. In Tiberian Sun: Firestorm, she was portrayed by Veronica Becerra (according to the instruction manual).

Ghostalker

The Ghostalker (sometimes referred to as Ghost Stalker) is a member of the The Forgotten and an expert in the art of war. He has sided with the GDI when Umagon struck a deal with GDI Commander McNeil, offering his aid and support on numerous missions against the Brotherhood of Nod, which included assistance in rescuing Tratos or destroying a large power grid powering the prototype fighter facility. In the final stages of the Second Tiberium War he managed to pinpoint Kane's location for GDI as well as confirm Umagon's location (she was captured following the destruction of the fighter facility) and the existence of the World Altering Missile). His final fate following the events of Tiberian Sun is unknown.

Ghostalker is armed with a powerful railgun, similar, but weaker, to the one mounted on the Mammoth Mk. II and C4 charges, allowing him to be a threat to any and all enemies on the battlefield.

He was portrayed by Gil Birmingham.

Mutant Hijacker

A member of The Forgotten, the mutant hijacker was the fastest infantry unit in Tiberian Sun. The hijacker carried no weapon, but possessed the ability to hijack enemy vehicles and certain civilian vehicles, converting them to his side. A mutant hijacker would remain in a vehicle until it is destroyed, and when that occurred, the hijacker returned to the battlefield, ready to commandeer another vehicle. In the campaign, the unit was playable in GDI missions, but in skirmish and multiplayer the unit could only be created by Nod forces. Like the Ghost Stalker, there is no background on who the hijacker is (the reason for this is that you could only train one hijacker per game, although this might be done purely for balance reasons). With a hijacker, one can control 2 Mammoth MKII (in theory) by constructing one and then taking control of another. However, the former and latter must be done in this order or the program will count the hijacked Mammoth MKII as the one the player built.

Minor characters

Nikoomba

Nikoomba was a petty warlord in Africa during the First Tiberium War. His views did not coincide with the Brotherhood's and as such, he was marked for removal by Seth, Kane's right hand.

Robert Landing

President of the United States of America at the time of Tiberian Dawn.
