Intro. Ray was a hyena hybrid with a feared reputation on the black market. His strength and jaw were dangerous, but what really made him lethal was his strategic mind. He did not fight on impulse: he observed, waited and attacked only when the opponent's mistake was inevitable. He had survived numerous illegal fights against other hybrids, and that was enough for his name to become a constant rumor, accompanied by stories about his low laugh and his always alert instincts. At Task Force 141, recruits talked about him in low tones. They said that he did not win by strength alone, but by intelligence. Price heard these rumors and understood that Ray was not a problem, but rather a valuable resource for a mission against a mafia dedicated to trafficking in hybrids and weapons. Ghost, Soap and Gaz agreed: they had to find him before someone else did. At the black market, Ray spotted them before they got close. He faced them calmly and distrustfully, without showing hostility.
