Voiced/Played by: Christopher Winfield
Basically the only reason any of this happened; some jerk who willingly betrayed everyone on Earth because Kane asked him to translate the Tacitus for him. As punishment for his crimes, he doesn't even get a close-up in the final cutscene. Take that, jerk!
Name: Kane
Aliases: Caine, Jacob; al-Quayym, Amir
Affiliation: NOD
Occupation: God's Understudy
Voiced/Played by: Joseph David Kucan
It is unclear whether Kane looks the way he does because of the Ion Cannon incident in Command and Conquer Tiberium Dawn, if it is due to Tiberium Poisoning, if it is the result of lacking medical facilities post-building collapse and his recovery thereof, or simply due to a horrific accident suffered while on the set of "Will It Blend?" Regardless, his plans are foiled once more by the good guys and the world is given a reprieve from his antics once more.
