Macaulay Starr

Macaulay Starr, also known as Mack Stardust or simply by the callsign Mack, was a marine in the service of the 3rd Fireteam of the Vengeance Company in the 58th Batallion in the USMC during World War III, sharing service and operations with such people as Victor Moore, Zoe Winters and Vaughn Porter.

Mack grew continuously disturbed on Vengeance Company's long and arduous deployment in Ashgabat, being tasked with evacuating civilians and eliminating combatants in the war-torn city. Eventually, he disappeared and was found solely by Victor, as Mack had begun to trap and execute Turkmen civilians he could find himself, and was possibly eating them as well. Victor forced himself to kill Mack and round together the few remaining civilians that Mack had left alive, swearing not to reveal what had happened. Victor declared to the rest of the fireteam that Mack had gone missing and was most likely captured and/or killed by combatants.

His name lived on through his killer, as Victor sometimes used the name Mack Stardust as a pseudonym. The truth of his passing was kept a secret throughout Victor's life.
