Captain Ash is a recurring character, having appeared in all games in the TimeSplitters Series thus far, and having a role in each game's Story. Captain Ash, in each of his appearances, has worn boots with a brown jacket and blue trousers. His hair is of a blonde colour and he sports a moustache, featuring in every game to date.

Little is truly known about Captain Ash's background, though it is suspected that he served in the infantry during the Boer War towards the end of the 19th Century as a teenager, before becoming an officer of the RAF (judging by his clothes) in World War I. It is important to dispel the confusion regarding Ash's title as Captain as one being under the RAF, where the title of Captain does not exist. However, it is very possible that he had become Group Captain. After the war, he retired from the military to set out on adventures of his own, traveling the world. It is then most possible that he assigned himself the title Captain for simplicity's sake.
