BACKGROUND: Born in Wales to American diplomats, Rogers attended the University of Wales Medical College in Cardiff. Both parents were killed in a terrorist attack on their home in 1986, a fact which may have drawn him to the CIA two years later. Intelligent and extraordinarily athletic, Rogers excelled in clandestine service training at Camp Perry. He spent a year stationed in Madrid, then with the collapse of the Eastern Bloc he was reassigned to DEA/CIA anti-narcoterrorism operations in Central and South America.
Rogers’ first exposure to the paranormal occurred in a 1995 operation against the Cali cartel in Colombia; he never learned the truth of the affair, but a monstrous demonic creature attacked during a CIA raid, and the child of a cartel boss was killed by Rogers in the crossfire. Ostensibly for his own safety, Rogers was reassigned to the New York station; but hardly a year passed before he was embroiled in operationSYNCHRONICITY, a Delta Green investigation of a violent gang of Modernist ghouls. By the end of that bloody investigation he was briefed as a Delta Green agent.
Rogers is single and lives alone in New York City.
