General Hayden

General Hayden is the human military commandant of the UAC space marine garrison in the Doom 3 novels (c. 2144-2145).

Background
He was a general in the space marines. He was in command of what was less than a U.S. government military unit than a Union Aerospace Corporation private security force.

Hayden had seen his share of battles— or “skirmishes,” as the United States government liked to call the never-ending little wars that plagued planet Earth.

He was a man in uniform. His Medals and colorful bars spoke of his experience.

Behind the Scenes

 * In the 2016 reboot, Hayden has been reinterpreted as a scientist who came down with cancer and converted himself into cyborg going by the name Samuel Hayden, who is the chairman of the UAC and highest command on Mars.


 * Some particular differences include the fact that General Hayden is human in the novels in 2145. Whereas Samuel Hayden was a cyborg by 6 months after Argent Tower was completed circa 2127. The only way for them to possibly co-exist is if General Hayden was a decendent of Samuel Hayden (Considering the possibily that all Mainline Doom games are in the same universe)


 * General Hayden was merely a subordinate of Ian Kelliher, and his father Thomas Kelliher.
