I was trained in the British Special Air Service, reaching the rank of major. While serving in the SAS, I was commander of a sniper detail and later an assault team. I was recruited into MI6 in 2001 and became a 00 Agent. This message I intercepted from M on its way to 007
tells the events that have led to now.: "Three years ago, while on assignment, the agent was severely wounded in an encounter with Dr. No, and subsequently lost the use of his right eye. Consumed with vengeance, he frequently resorts to violence and brutality, and is no longer fit for service with MI6."I was sent on a mission to apprehend Dr. No, but failed and was shot in his right eye by Dr. No himself.Three years after the incident which claimed my right eye, I was evaluated through a holographic simulation in which I was paired with 007 to stop Auric Goldfinger, a member of SPECTRE, from detonating a suitcase nuke inside of Fort Knox. I failed the test, and was held directly responsible for the death of 007. Charged with "reckless brutality", I was dismissed from MI6. As I left the headquarters, I recieved an offer by Goldfinger to enlist in his organization. As an SPECTRE operative I was given a gold-hued cybernetic eye created by Franciso Scaramanga, another SPECTRE official (from which I received my codename "GoldenEye"). As I take on more difficult missions, Scaramanga provides upgrades for the eye, starting with MRI vision, then an EM hack feature, then magnetic polarity shield, finally magnetic induction field. After working for SPECTRE for a while I have now turned rogue working for the highest bidder.
