• Complete Monster
  • Dobrynya Popovich first appears in the second game, "Black Pegasus", and is the Big Bad of "Fallen Nation", the third game. Originally just a low-ranking officer for a terrorist organization, Popovich used his position to organize numerous terrorist attacks and sentence numerous American soldiers to be brutally tortured for information. Founding the KPR (Korean, Pakistan, Russian) Alliance, Popovich kick-starts Operation Fallen Nation, a full-scale invasion of American soil by the KPR, by setting off WMDs in numerous highly-populated cities. Next beginning to lay siege to many American cities, killing tens of thousands of innocents across the country, Popovich simultaneously captured and tortures numerous U.S. military agents. After failing to wipe out America's entire Western seaboard, Popovich reveals his plans to launch several nuclear weapons at America, hoping to kill countless millions and reduce America to a ravaged wasteland. When confronted by Magnus Downs, a soldier he once sentenced to torture years back, Popovich gleefully reminisces about Downs's torture before attempting to beat him to death, proclaiming that he will target Downs's hometown next, while expressing his annoyance at not having more time to skin Downs alive.
  • "The Zealot", Edward Page, is an absolutely deranged madman convinced that America is a cesspool of filth and elitist "pigs", and is determined to wipe it off the face of the Earth no matter the cost. Once a Green Beret, Page turned on America and became a terrorist, having a huge part in Operation Fallen Nation, using his forces to back the KPR's evil plans to siege America. Taking center stage in the fourth game, "Zero Hour", as the main threat, Page kicks the game off by slaughtering his way into Seattle's War Crimes Investigation Building, soon after which he massacres a huge party hosted for the President of the United States before kidnapping the President himself. Having absolute indifference toward his own troops, Page leaves them to die, blows several up to stall enemy forces, and even threatens one of his hesitant partners by promising to show up at his young daughter's birthday party with a blowtorch. Page's horrifying final plan is revealed to entail unleashing a lethal plague onto the planet that will kill upwards of 4 billion innocents as part of Page's plan to "cleanse" the entire planet, and, even when beaten, Page uses his last breaths to gun down as many American soldiers as possible.
