John "Johnny" Jonathan Johnson
Not his real name.
Did jobs in the US for some non-disclosed eastern government or corporation, was under cover as a third rate actor/director for DTV movies. Abandoned his old allegiance upon seeing the neighbours' nice little girl get abducted by aliens and seeing nobody wanted to do anything about it, used and burned his old connections to join an XCom mercenary outfit.
Rather plain-looking and annoyingly generic "eurasian" mix. Looks Soviet to Americans, looks like he came from the country right to the East to every European, looks Chinese to Russians and looks Russian to the Chinese. Enjoys a small cult following due to often playing the mercenary bad guys in his movies, the peak of his career was a 5 seconds appearance in "The Expendables 2" as one of the expendable mooks that die in droves. (Nobody noticed three of the Bulgarian ecologist ringleaders that complained about environmental damages died of natural causes within a few days of him shooting his scene in Bulgaria.)
His new callsign became "Cameltdown" after an unfortunate incident in Morocco that might or might not have made the news, and may or may not related to a gigantic explosion in the desert.
