- "TomCat, looks like I'm not gonna be able to send you any reinforcements for a while, my Helos just got diverted to Armacham Headquarters. Something big is going on..."
- —A. Shepherd to Betters about the situation.
A. Shepherd is the Delta Force coordinator in F.E.A.R.: First Encounter Assault Recon. He operates under the call sign "Den Mother".
Both Timelines[]
F.E.A.R.: First Encounter Assault Recon[]
A. Shepherd is a capable Delta Force leader, reluctant to send in another squad of soldiers without knowing what happened to the first two teams. He keeps in constant communication with F.E.A.R. coordinator Rodney Betters, letting him know when the Replica Forces have moved to new locations, and informing Betters of the attack on Armacham Technology Corporation Headquarters.
His ultimate fate is unclear, as he is not seen or heard from after the explosion at the Origin Facility. The blast may have injured him or disrupted his communication equipment.
Vivendi Timeline[]
F.E.A.R. Perseus Mandate[]
A. Shepherd is heard in Interval 01 and 02. He makes contact a few times with Rodney Betters, mostly about the missing Delta Force team trapped inside the Armacham Data and Research Center. He is no longer heard after the Second F.E.A.R. team heads towards the Armacham Bio-Research Facility.
Trivia[]
- In Extraction Point, Betters' radio transmission icon misidentifies him as Shepherd.
- He is called Centcom in F.E.A.R. 2.
- His name is very likely a reference to Adrian Shephard, the protagonist of Half Life: Opposing Force, a game which was also published by Sierra.
