He's trained in rough terrain warfare and can carry the fight to the enemy over forests, desert, mountains, jungle and snow. The idea of living in the wild is second nature to him thanks to his military training. He's skilled in demolitions; either using them or defusing them which helps him prepare snap ambushes against enemy forces when behind their lines. | He's trained in rough terrain warfare and can carry the fight to the enemy over forests, desert, mountains, jungle and snow.

+ | |||
+ | Campbell grew up in heartbreaking poverty within Glasgow's Easter House area to a father who was prone to drunken fits of rage and a mother who's sole solace was a needle in her arm. His only friend was his younger sister who he often defended from their father's batterings by provoking him into focusing his attention solely on himself. | ||

+ | When their father died Campbell was left to fend for himself, his mother and his sister. Stealing whatever they needed or using money to run drugs for the local gangs Campbell managed to support his family by bare-thread means. He was always hungry as he ensured his sister got the full share of the food that he managed to acquire. Whatever money the state gave them in support was quickly spent by their mother on drugs. | ||

+ | His first and last run-in with the law wouldn't be from theft or by his assistance to drug gangs but violence. A known sex offender attempted to accost his sister in the street as she ate an ice-cream; one of the few luxuries that Campbell allowed for them. As a result Campbell lashed out with a discarded pipe which earned his arrest for grievous bodily harm with intent. Luckily thanks to the man's history the court leaned favourably towards Campbell awarding him community work rather than a young offender's sentence which would have doomed his sister. | ||
