->'''Real Name:''' Gerald Morris
A former member of Team Rainbow, he was revealed in ''Year 8'' as the mastermind behind the thefts of NIGHTHAVEN's weapons and the rise of criminal activity across the world. This ultimately proved to be a ruse: his real goal is to lure Rainbow out in the open and kill its members one by one, starting with the current Rainbow Six, Harry.

->'''Real Name:''' A mysterious mercenary organization with ties to international crime and terrorism. Led by ex-Rainbow operative Gerald Morris
A
"Deimos" Morris, the Keres Legion is responsible for carrying out various attacks against his former member of Team Rainbow, he was revealed in ''Year 8'' unit, such as the mastermind behind assassination of Director Harishva "Harry" Pandey, the thefts of NIGHTHAVEN's weapons attack on their training exercise in Seoul, and the rise attempted assassination of criminal activity across the world. This ultimately proved to be a ruse: his real goal is to lure Rainbow out Rainbow's oversight committee in the open and kill its members one by one, starting with the current Rainbow Six, Harry.Emerald Plains.



* BadBoss: He has a casual disregard for his people's lives and he won't hesitate to kill them if it suits his purposes:
** In "Brava's Interception", when Deimos makes his escape from the cargo plane, he pulls the cargo lever despite the fact that it sends some of his own men flying to their doom.
** In "Fenrir's Chemical Formula", Deimos locks some of his scientists in a lab and tests an unstable version of Fenrir's hallucinogen on them, [[HatePlague causing them to kill each other in a rage-induced frenzy]]. All this, just to see the chemical's effects on humans.
* BigBad: As of ''Year 8'' he's the main antagonist of ''Siege''.
* BrokenPedestal: His bio mentions that Gerald Morris was championed after his supposed death as one of the pinnacle members of Team Rainbow's mission, with many subsequent Operators considering him, alongside his own fellow veteran operators, the ideal counterterrorist. When they find out that Deimos ''is'' in fact Gerald Morris after his detainment, it causes ''a lot'' of tension to run amok between Team Rainbow.
* CanonCharacterAllAlong: Is revealed to be Gerald Morris, one of the demolition operators that could be fitted into your squad during the original Rainbow Six trilogy developed by Red Storm Entertainment.
* ContinuityNod: Deimos' bio lists as relevant experience Operation Mystic Tiger, Operation Zero Gambit and Operation Steel Rose, the respective final missions of the first three games in the series.
* EnemyMine: Despite everything he did in "Year 8", including causing the death of the previous Six--Harry--they are forced to consider aligning interests with him and conscripting him as an Operator again to make him far more agreeable to revealing the truth of TheConspiracy of a larger enemy more dangerous than him and his Keres Legion, [[WeAREStrugglingTogether which has caused no end of infighting among the operators within Rainbow if this is the right course of action]].
* FaceHeelTurn: As Gerald Morris, he used to be a dedicated operator who fought against terrorists across the globe until, one day, he snapped from feeling like no matter what they accomplished, they were paying lip service to uncaring governments and political agendas [[WhyDontYouJustShootHim rather than solving the real issues]] that led to chaos, leading to the death of Daniel Bogart in the process of his defection from Team Rainbow. Nowadays, he serves as the ruthless head of the Keres Legion, [[HeWhoFightsMonsters a terrorist faction in its own right]], seeking to cause catastrophic damage not only to Team Rainbow but governments across the world for his own ends.
* FallenHero: Once part of Team Rainbow sworn to fighting evil, Deimos is now one of the most dangerous terrorists the unit has ever faced.
* GeniusBruiser: While Team Rainbow has no shortage of exceptional individuals in this regard, Deimos back when he was Gerald Morris held an incredible amount of accolades including ''publishing a thesis'' called "''Applications of Micro-stress Analysis in Accelerant Identification''" that is considered a landmark in explosives forensics, which is still in circulation and currently read to this day seeing how it can be found on several maps.
* HandCannon: He wields a custom-made .44 magnum revolver as his sidearm.
* HeroKiller: He shoots Harry [[AttackOnTheHeart in the heart]], killing him instantly. Deimos also intends to kill the rest of Rainbow - so far, he has seriously injured Thermite, Sledge, Zofia, Caveira, and Ash (who was put into a coma).
** And, in 2012, he killed Daniel Bogart, another operator from the old days.
* KnightOfCerebus: Big time. Not only does he kill Harry, but his arrival marks the point where [[ContinuityCreep the game finally has a concrete and defined antagonist with non-nebulous goals]].
* MalevolentMaskedMan: He wears a sinister-looking black ballistic mask, not at all different from the ones worn by the Wolves in ''VideoGame/GhostReconBreakpoint''.
* ManipulativeBastard: ''He'' engineered Team Rainbow's actions against NIGHTHAVEN by stealing the PMC's weaponry and arming criminals with them to commit heinous crimes, such as Yahata's assassination. This was all just a FalseFlagOperation to steer Rainbow into action against the wrong enemy, allowing Deimos to isolate and eliminate them once they went after the stolen weapons.
* MeaningfulName: [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deimos_(deity) Deimos]] is a Greek war god of dread and terror.
* PromotedToPlayable: He becomes a playable operator for Year Nine.
* RogueProtagonist: As one of the original Rainbow members from the original trilogy developed by Red Storm Entertainment now being a criminal mastermind that opposes Team Rainbow, this applies naturally.
* VillainRespect: He hates what Rainbow has become, declaring it a disgrace to the "apex killers" that used to comprise its ranks. Nevertheless, he admires Harry's courage in the face of certain doom and made sure to give him a quick, dignified death.
--> '''Deimos''': (after shooting Harry) ''Yeah, well, I'll tell them you went out swinging.''

* BadBoss: He ElaborateUndergroundBase: The map "Lair", introduced in Year 8 Season 4's ''Operation Deep Freeze'', is set in one of Keres's hideouts in Portugal. The whole place is built into an enormous cave system and features a laboratory, an armory, and a storage room with river access for inflatable boats.
* ForScience: Recordings found in Lair's laboratory indicate that the group
has a casual hired scientists (like Fenrir, prior to his defection to Rainbow) to work on new chemical weapons. At least one of these scientists approves of Deimos's disregard for his people's lives safety and he won't hesitate to kill ethics, as she considers them if it suits his purposes:
** In "Brava's Interception", when Deimos makes his escape from the cargo plane, he pulls the cargo lever despite the fact that it sends some of his own men flying to their doom.

* MalevolentMaskedMan: He wears Like the White Masks that came before them, Keres mercenaries wear masks and/or helmets to conceal their identities. Unlike the White Masks, however, the Keres Legion does not have a sinister-looking consistent, unifying theme going for its people - many of them opt for simple balaclavas, while others settle for black ballistic mask, not masks, mesh veils (similar to Nøkk), or opaque face shields.
* NGOSuperpower: Keres Legion has a lot of hardware
at all different from its disposal, including enough military-grade firearms, miniguns, and attack helicopters to equip a small army. And if Lair is any indication, the ones worn by the Wolves in ''VideoGame/GhostReconBreakpoint''.
