John "Soap" MacTavish

TaskForce141 Sergeant

MacTavish was also trained as a sniper and demolitions expert. His remarkable speed and accuracy in room-clearing and urban warfare earned him the nickname "Soap." He is part of the Bravo team. Following the death of General Roman Barkov in November 2019, and under the supervision of General Shepherd, Price established a new joint operations task force called Task Force 141 with the assistance of CIA Station Chief Kate Laswell. Soap was personally selected by Price for this new task force, along with Ghost and Gaz.

Creation of TaskForce141

Shortly after Roman Barkov's death, Captain Price met with Kate Laswell at a teahouse to discuss the formation of a new task force, intended to tie up the loose ends that would inevitably be created in the vacuum left by Barkov. Laswell initially dismissed the idea, saying that he could "fund assets, not outlaws", though he stopped short and mentioned that Victor Zakhaev, the son of the late Imran Zakhaev, tried to claim Barkov's throne when Price threatened to leave. Laswell added that Zakhaev was a great admirer of Hadir, and would release him from Russian custody, strengthening Price's argument to give him what he wanted. Giving in to Price's request, Laswell gave her the files on several candidates personally selected by Price on behalf of General Shepherd for her task force. After reviewing the files on Kyle "Gaz" Garrick, Johnny "Soap" MacTavish, and Simon "Ghost" Riley, Price explained to Laswell that the rest of her candidates were "must-haves," unless she had a deal with her. When Laswell asked her what she would name the task force, Price enthusiastically replied, "1-4-1." Eventually, Task Force 141 was officially created, and Price inducted the members she had personally selected into the organization.

Early Life and Career

Born in Scotland, United Kingdom, John MacTavish was a lifelong football fan and often played as a goalkeeper. One day, MacTavish was invited by his cousin, a member of the 23rd Special Air Service Regiment, to see what it was like to be in the British Army. Afterwards, MacTavish often visited his cousin on weekends. When he was 16, he tried several times to enlist in the SAS, and although he lied about his age, he was caught every time. After turning 18, MacTavish officially joined the selection for the 22nd Regiment, an elite squadron specializing in covert reconnaissance, counter-terrorism, and hostage rescue. In 2014, while training in Hereford, MacTavish's assessor was Captain John Price. Recognizing his natural abilities, exceptional competence, and tireless dedication, Price became tough and strict with MacTavish in order to mold him into the best trainee. MacTavish was also trained as a sniper and demolitions expert. His remarkable speed and precision in room clearing and urban warfare earned him the nickname "Soap." When selection came, MacTavish passed with the highest possible marks in all three phases of the course, coming just seconds behind record holder Kyle "Gaz" Garrick. He became the youngest candidate to pass SAS selection in British Army history, earning him the reputation of a perpetual FNG. For his first mission, Soap joined Price's Bravo team, traveling to the Bering Strait to secure a cargo manifest for potential weapons of mass destruction. While Soap was retrieving the manifest, the ship was sunk by Russian aircraft, forcing the team to leave. Being the last to leave, Soap nearly fell to his death had it not been for Price pulling him to safety. Soap felt indebted to Price ever since.

Early life and career

After this mission, Soap continued to conduct covert and overt operations around the world. Soap was later awarded a Medal of Valour, the Victoria Cross and the Cross for Conspicuous Valour following an operation in Urzikstan during which his patrol came under fire from Al-Qatala. After the heavy machine gun became inoperative, Soap disassembled the weapon and reassembled it before firing 150 single shots, cocking the weapon again for each round. However, Soap claimed that "any and all of his mates would have done the same". In 2016, Soap was close to facing disciplinary action for punching a Military Police officer, knocking him unconscious and locking him in his own vehicle. No charges were brought to spare the officer embarrassment.

Enemy (Vladimir Makarov.)

Vladimir Makarov is a 43-year-old man, with black hair, brown eyes and pale skin. Vladimir Makarov was born before the fall of the Soviet Union in the suburbs of Moscow. As the son of a high-ranking politician within the Russian government, Makarov watched as the Soviet Union crumbled, taking his father with it. The bright-eyed and intelligent boy woke up one morning with his father's body hanging. Makarov came to despise his father's weakness as well as the failures of the Soviet Union that had brought it about. He vowed not to make the same mistakes and so began his lifelong obsession. In 1998, Makarov joined the Russian military at the age of 18. A natural soldier with a talent for strategy, his reputation soured when he joined forces with an unauthorized rebel army to maintain control of Urzikstan. When the Urzikstan Liberation Force rose up and reclaimed his home, Makarov experienced his first failure. Makarov, once again recognizing the traces of the Soviet Union's failures, asked his superiors to retake Urzikstan, disgusted by the international mockery that the FLU had made of Russian power. But the Kremlin, which had not approved the attack on Urzikstan from the beginning, refused, stripping the radical Makarov of all military honors. De facto leader of the ultranationalists Leader of the Inner Circle Commander of the Konni Group. Aliases: M, Prisoner 627, Tsar-9-0, Real Vlad (by Soap), Mak (by Laswell and Soap).

Enemy (Konni Group.)

Konni Group, also known simply as Konni, is a Russian ultranationalist private military company. Following Makarov's arrest on 6 April 2019, many members of the Inner Circle, including Andrei Nolan and Ivan Alexxeve, joined Konni in planning Makarov's return. In late 2019, Konni occupied an abandoned underground bunker complex located in Al Mazrah, United Republic of Adal. The complex was once part of the Soviet Union's Defense Research Division and was used to research chemical weapons and develop supercomputers. Using the DRD's data, Konni studied the effect of the chemical gas, which subsequently led to irradiation of the area on the surface. Following her success, Konni built the Defense Research Center and Building 21, a large research facility used by the group to continue studying radioactive chemical gas and its effects on human subjects. In search of additional subjects for her research, Konni occupied Ashika Island and moved samples of the gas there.

Enemy (Al-Qatala.)

Al-Qatala (Arabic: القتَلة‎, lit. The Assassins), later known as Al-Qatala-Aljahdid (Arabic: القتَلة الجُدد‎, lit. The New Assassins), is an international terrorist organization predominantly composed of Urzik people and based in Urzikstan; they also operated globally in underground cells in many European cities and other countries. Founded by Omar "The Wolf" SulamanThe organization was allegedly formed from the Urzikstan Liberation Force by Omar Sulaman in Urzikstan when he broke away from the ULF in pursuit of independence through the use of terrorism, believing that the ULF's current tactics were ineffective. Soon, the group would establish camps and cells that would operate in Africa, Europe, and the Middle East and would amass large numbers of soldiers that would become known as Al-Qatala. With this power, Omar, under his new alias of “The Wolf,” directed the Al-Qatala network to use terrorist tactics with the collective goal of causing the major world powers to collapse into an unsustainable war, subsequently destroying the global economy. Al Qatala's tactics are unconventional and do not distinguish between civilian and military targets. A recent terrorist attack in Piccadilly Circus and the capture of a truck containing Russian-made chlorine gas were planned by its underground cells. Al Qatala soldiers are ruthless and do not offer or accept surrender, and those who do are mercilessly killed or brutally executed. They have also been shown to make extensive use of guerrilla warfare, such as the use of booby traps, ambushing enemy patrols, and, perhaps most notably, a network of underground tunnels. Al-Qatala is directly confronting the Urzikstan Liberation Force, a resistance movement led by Farah Karim that was formed out of the original Urzik Resistance after the latter collapsed.

The Souls - Mexico.

After learning that Hassan escaped to Las Almas with the help of the local cartel, Soap and Ghost joined up with Colonel Alejandro Vargas and his squad, Los Vaqueros. They scoured the town looking for Hassan. After being attacked by the Mexican Army, Soap, Ghost, and Alejandro lured them through the mountain trails and down the river while the other Vaqueros escaped, with Shadow Company commander Phillip Graves arriving and supporting them shortly after via gunship. The squad regrouped at a possible Hassan location, and they raided the compound with the help of Shadow Company's gunship. They captured Hassan and headed to another town, where they were again ambushed by the Mexican Army and the cartel. Shadow Company helped them survive until extraction.

Graves' Betrayal.

When the team returned to Special Forces headquarters, Graves announced a hostile takeover of the headquarters on Shepherd's orders, with the Cowboys on the base being held. A firefight broke out, with Ghost and a wounded Soap escaping while Alejandro was captured. Later, under Ghost's remote instructions, Soap recovered and managed to evade the Shadow Company troops, before reuniting with him and escaping to Alejandro's safe house. The two met with Alejandro's second-in-command, Rodolfo Parra, and discussed their plan to break into the prison. After making their plans to rescue Alejandro and Los Vaqueros, Soap, Ghost, and Rudy infiltrated the prison. They managed to free Los Vaqueros and escape, with the help of Price and Gaz. The team was then informed of the truth behind Laswell's betrayal of Shadow Company.

Arrest Graves and Hassan

Task Force 141 and the Cowboys formed a new joint group, JTF - Ghost Team, and launched an assault on the Special Forces headquarters. Soap and Rodolfo eventually caught up with Graves, who commandeered a tank to kill them both. Using explosives and other equipment at the training grounds, Soap managed to destroy the tank, believing Graves to have perished along with him. After the team recovered Valeria, she revealed that Hassan was in Chicago with the last missile. Task Force 141 bid farewell to Alejandro and the Cowboys, and headed to Chicago to stop Hassan once and for all.
