biography.

Edward Rutledge was born in Brisbane, Australia, and grew up to work for the Australian military, specifically in the Special Forces, rising in rank to eventually earn the title of Corporal. Being deployed in a war-zone, him and his team carried out multiple operations, before they were assigned the job of clearing a path so that it would be safe for the US soldiers to travel through the war-zone. Though while clearing the path of IEDs (improvised explosive devices) and other dangers, a bomb intended for the American soldiers were dropped by the enemy, injuring Rutledge and several people on his team, killing two of them. In the aftermath of the explosion, Rutledge helped his surviving men get to safety, though while doing so, he came to witness one of the US soldiers named Danielle Sutton, picking up a kid from the rubble to get them to safety. The press took a photo of it, and she was seen as a hero when she returned home, which she would lean on forward to garner favor during the US election, resulting in her winning and becoming the next president of the United States.

Meanwhile, Rutledge returned to Australia, only to learn that his team had never been supposed to be assigned the job where the bombing took place in the first place, and that the US was behind them being deployed there. Getting a job working as a Security Technology Specialist, at first within Australia, then internationally, Rutledge's resentment toward the US and world leaders as a whole started growing, and when the next US election was drawing closer, he eventually saw on the news that Sutton was using the rescue of that one child for all it was worth, acting as if she had fought actively in the war, when the reality was that that day had been her first day in the war-zone.

When she went on to win the election, it was the last push he needed to start planning a terrorist attack, gathering fellow soldier from around the world that also had reasons to resent world leaders, and in order to encourage their cooperation, he made part of the plan involving crashing the world economy, and essentially convincing people to invest their money where they wanted them, so that their own wallets would skyrocket into the billions.

His official file with the FBI, according to the FBI themselves, is squeaky-clean, and simply states:
