At the end of the first game, the main character, Sergant Nathan Hale, is

taken into custody "by a squad of soldiers wearing unusual insignia,

appearing to be some form of special forces, known only as the Black-Ops,

a name given to them in the multiplayer mode." In R2, the story startswith him being taken to the Special Projects Research Administration

(SPRA) where he finds out that "there are others like him that are

resistant to the Chimera virus who have been collected together from

around the world by the SPRA. The result is a task force called The

Sentinels."
