Suggested by daviddyster

In 2002, the elite United States Army unit F.E.A.R. (First Encounter Assault Recon) was founded to "combat paranormal threats to national security". The game is set in 2025 in the fictional city of Fairport and begins as the unit is joined by a newly assigned Sergeant (referred to only as Point Man). At a facility owned by Armacham Technology Corporation (ATC), a psychic operative named Paxton Fettel has gone rogue. Officially an aerospace manufacturer and medical research company, in reality, ATC are a hugely powerful private military company dabbling in cryogenics, nuclear technology, cloning, and telepathy.[37] They were attempting to develop a unit of telepathically controlled clone soldiers (known as Replicas), and Fettel was their commander.[38] However, he has now used the Replicas to seize control of the facility.[c] The mission of the three-person F.E.A.R. team (Point Man, LT. Spencer Jankowski, and CTO Jin Sun-Kwon) is to eliminate Fettel, which will automatically shut down the Replicas. As the mission progresses, Jankowski disappears and Point Man begins to have powerful hallucinations, implying that he has a deeper connection to Fettel. Point Man witnesses Fettel interrogating a worker, and later finds the mutilated worker who mentions a girl named "Alma" before dying. Despite being unable to locate Jankowski, F.E.A.R. is redeployed to ATC headquarters, where a Delta Force recon team has dropped out of contact.
