Python
01
A member of Special Forces Unit FOX. He was Naked Snake's teammate back when Snake was in FOX.
After The Boss vanished in the 1950s, Naked Snake and Python became comrades in arms. But Python was wounded on a top-secret mission in Vietnam, disrupting his body's ability to regulate its internal temperature and causing it to spiral out of control. Python left FOX for a time, but was later able to return to the battlefield by wearing a liquid oxygen cooling suit and injecting a special cooling needle into his head. He was designated as an anti-Snake soldier in preparation for a potential attack by Naked Snake. Upon his return to FOX, Python specialized in covert wetworks (assassinations). His cooling suit enabled him to freeze anything, even bullets. CQC was useless against him because it was too dangerous to make direct contact with him.
