Peacemaker

Peacemaker's History

Christopher "Chris" Smith, also known as the Peacemaker, is a violent vigilante who believes in achieving peace at any cost no matter how many people he has to kill for it in the process. He was also a member of the second Task Force X strike team sent on a mission to Corto Maltese. While he struck up a rapport with the team, he eventually turned on them to complete their intended mission when they learned it was all a cover-up for the U.S. government's mistake. In the attempt to complete the mission, Smith murdered team leader Rick Flag, and was sent into a coma by teammate and rival Bloodsport.

When the comatose Smith was recovered from Corto Maltese, he was sent to an American hospital, where the mission coordinators of the Force, John Economos and Emilia Harcourt, awaited his awakening, preparing to have him join a smaller team to participate in Project Butterfly, with his friend Vigilante also joining the team. During the course of Project Butterfly, Peacemaker also came into conflict with his abusive father, and was forced to reflect on his world views and past traumas, culminating in Smith defeating and killing his own father.
