The Black Major is a member of the Red Shadows and second-in-command to Baron Ironblood. He is a traitor from Action Force (as a former British Special Boat Service marine commando) who was court martialed in absentia by his former Royal Marine unit and disowned by his family following his treachery. The Black Major's name is derived from the Spanish phrase el comandante negro, which was shouted at him by Andean soldiers in his first engagement for the Red Shadows.
He is a dedicated and ruthless follower. Brilliant military commander and tactician. Totally emotionless. The Black Major carries out Baron Ironblood's orders without question.
