*'''[[Naked Snake|Naked Snake/Big Boss]]''' - The main character of the game. In 1964, he was recruited by the fledgling FOX (Force Operation X) unit, and underwent an operation titled the Virtuous Mission, in which he was to rescue a defecting Soviet scientist, Dr. Nikolai Stepanovich Sokolov. It was during this mission that Jack was given the codename "Naked Snake."
However, this mission failed, due to the defection of The Boss. A week later, FOX unit and Snake were assigned Operation Snake Eater, in which the objective was to eliminate The Boss and her new Soviet ally, Colonel Volgin, as well as rescue Sokolov. It was during this mission that Snake came across the prototype designs for the Metal Gear bipedal tank from Director Granin, who was sending them to a colleague in America. This colleague was the grandfather of Hal Emmerich, aka "Otacon," first introduced in Metal Gear Solid.
During this mission, Snake lost his right eye to a bullet from Ocelot's revolver while enduring torture. However, he succeeded in completing the mission, and killed The Boss and Colonel Volgin. For this, he was given the title of "Big Boss" by President Johnson.
