During the events on Shadow Moses Island, Solid Snake saved Hal Emmerich from the mysterious Cyborg Ninja. The two men could not be less alike. While Snake had the cold and detached attitude of a heartless mercenary, Emmerich was an upbeat and optimistic scientist. Another difference was Hal's somewhat childish love of Japanese Anime. Emmerich adopted the nickname "Otacon," taken from the Otaku Anime Convention, which occurs in Japan every year. Snake now refers to him solely by this name. Snake revealed to Otacon that he had been deceived by Armstech president Kenneth Baker into creating a prototype weapon of nightmarish proportions, the nuclear-equipped walking battle tank named Metal Gear REX. Emmerich's family has a dark history in science; his ancestors were responsible for the atomic bomb, among other twentieth century weapons of mass destruction. The news wounded Otacon deeply, and he resolved to help Snake destroy REX. After a tense battle with the FOXHOUND leader Liquid Snake, they escaped Shadow Moses together. Since then, Otacon has worked with Snake to create the anti-Metal Gear coalition called "Phianthropy." Recently, Otacon was able to convince the United Nations to recognize "Philanthropy" as a legitamite political organization. But further proof of covert Metal Gear development is required to make the dream of "Philanthropy" into a reality. Snake and Otacon infiltrate the military installations and facilities of the world, delving into their compounds through stealth and cyber hacking. In a sense, Snake is the brawn and Otacon is the brains behind "Philanthropy."[/quote] |
