Buck Raleigh



Buck Raleigh (often referred to as the Businessman) is one of the playable characters in BioShock 2 Multiplayer. He was the fifth character to be shown on the Cult of Rapture's Faces of Rapture's Civil War.


 * "Buck Raleigh made his money in bourbon. He is a self-made businessman in the bourbon industry from the American south with an intrepid nature and boundless ambition. He is known as a ruthless and cutthroat negotiator who frequently defied government regulations. Eventually he was put on trial for tax evasion, but before a ruling could be made, Raleigh disappeared. Buck came to Rapture fed up with the disruption governmental interference consistently caused in his industry topside, and has been an eager and avid competitor in Rapture’s unregulated markets."



Story
While initially opposing ADAM and Plasmids Buck was driven to splicing when his wife Clara Raleigh disappeared without a trace. After almost a year, Buck found Clara, barely alive in his distillery, having triggered a swarm of security bots that attacked her and her comrades. As it turned out, Clara had been leading a revolt against Buck.
