Story
Once, Sam Fisher was an agent of Third Echelon, assigned to infiltrate strongholds
belonging to enemies of National Security, gather information, and, where necessary, use
his training to neutralize those enemies.
But times are changing. America’s enemies are looking at new options, finding ways to
make themselves more deadly. In order to stay one step ahead of its targets, Third Echelon
is also changing, although Colonel Irving Lambert and Assistant Director Williams may be
trying to steer in two different directions. And while Sam Fisher’s foes are evolving and his
allies are in flux, very soon Fisher’s own life is also going to undergo a dramatic and
permanent change. And once that happens, nothing will ever be the same again.
With his life turned upside down, Sam Fisher is on a new mission unlike any he has ever
been sent on before. Where he used to penetrate defenses and gather information from
the outside, now he’s on the inside, working with those he’s sworn to destroy and finding
enemies among his allies. He’s risking everything for the sake of the greater good, even
if it costs him his identity – or his life.
Characters
Sam Fisher – Field Operative
Born: Classified
Height: 5’10’’
Weight: 170 lbs
As a Splinter Cell, an agent of Third Echelon, the NSA’s most secret
subgroup, Sam Fisher has been trained to secure his country’s
defense by mounting a good offense. In addition to their weapons
and hand-to-hand training, Splinter Cells use the latest high
technology and espionage techniques to infiltrate sensitive
locations, retrieve information, and execute operations the U.S.
government cannot acknowledge.
Fisher has been on the front lines of espionage through several key decades of world
history. He has not only survived but excelled in his field through hard work, insatiable
curiosity, and brutal honesty. He has little time for polite niceties and even less for lies.
He is quiet, instinctive, and observant, somebody who watches from the outside.
But in order to achieve the discipline necessary for his work, Fisher has had to bury
certain parts of himself. He is a man of few words, a man with a strange and slightly
dark sense of humor, a man with an adult daughter whom he loves but hardly knows. He
is truly himself only when he is on the job – he has, in a sense, become what he does.
This is where his world makes sense, where there are allies and enemies, and the
difference has always been simple and clear...until now.

Colonel Irving Lambert
Born: 1961, Bat Cave, North Carolina
Height: 6’2’’
Weight: 270 lbs
Lambert is the Third Echelon director in charge of all field
operations, answering only to one man. He became involved in the
intelligence community as a young man, rising quickly in rank and
responsibility. Serving in the Persian Gulf before and during Desert
Storm, he coordinated intelligence and ran double agents. He
moved on to Third Echelon, where he spearheaded the ambitious
Splinter Cell program. Those missions scored several impressive successes, due in large
part to the involvement of Lambert’s subordinate and friend Sam Fisher. Although still a
popular and well-connected man in Washington, D.C., Lambert’s recent proposals for
changes in National Security structures and procedures have turned him into a political
hot potato – and a potential liability.
Emile Dufraisne
Born: 1956, Opelousas, Louisiana
Height: 5’9”
Weight: 160 lbs
The product of a wealthy, traditional upbringing, Emile Dufraisne
was always destined for great things. His belief that America
needs to change in a fundamental way moved him to create the
JBA, a group devoted to bringing about change through the
destruction of the current, decadent order. Some would call him a
terrorist, but Emile considers himself a patriot.
Enrica Villablanca
Born: 1977, Highland Beach, Florida
Height: 5’7”
Weight: 125 lbs
Once she was finished getting her doctorate, Enrica discovered she
didn’t really know what to do with her life. She did have very strong
ideas about societal problems, and when she went looking for
solutions to them she found the JBA. As the only woman in the
group, Enrica hides her uncertainty behind walls of professional
competence and disdain.
Carson Moss
Born: 1972, Tulsa, Oklahoma
Height: 6’2”
Weight: 245 lbs
Of all the JBA members, Moss has been with Emile the longest.
Emile is also the only person Moss respects, and he uses his
position as the JBA’s head of security to bully everyone else –
except for Enrica. Although Emile once considered Moss to be
perfectly reliable, recent security lapses have started to create a
rift between them.
Jamie Washington
Born: 1979, Dothan, Alabama
Height: 5’11”
Weight: 165 lbs
Jamie is a study in contrasts. On the one hand, he’s generally
cheerful and easy-going around the people he likes. Once he
decides he likes someone, he’s a friend for life, unswervingly loyal.
On the other hand, he’s a vicious, cruel man who enjoys inflicting
violence on other people, especially those who can’t fight back.
Hisham Hamza
Born: 1979, Washington, D.C.
Height: 5’9”
Weight: 165 lbs
Relatively young for a man of his position, Hamza is part of a new initiative within the
Department of Defense: The Interdepartmental Operative. Nominally a member of the CIA,
Hamza’s capacity for quick learning made him an excellent early candidate to act as a
field liaison between the CIA and the NSA. Although still youthful and arrogant, his
versatility is likely to make him a great agent one day.

Trust System
Most missions will force you to choose between supporting the priorities of the JBA or
the NSA. Depending on how you play the game, your trust level with both groups will go
up or down.
The level of trust you earn for either side will have implications, including how other
characters treat you, and what equipment and upgrades you can access.
Visually, the trust system is represented by bars that fill up or empty depending on the
group you are supporting or undermining. The game is effectively over if either of the
two bars drops to a zero value.

Rewards
Gadgets that aid stealth will be rewarded based on successful completion of objectives in
a stealthy manner.
Gadgets are awarded at the end of the mission (mission debriefings detail newly awarded
equipment).
Hacking Gameplay
Hacking is performed directly on objects that can be hacked. Hacking allows you to
access otherwise inaccessible information.
•
The hacking interface is composed of four columns of numbers and a valid code line
of four numbers at the bottom.
•
A timer at the top gives the amount of time before the hacking attempt fails. If the
hack fails, an alarm will be triggered.
•
Two warning lights at the top indicate the number of attempts Sam can make before
failing the attempt and triggering an alarm.
•
Each column determines one of the four code elements. Sam must find the four
correct code elements to hack the system.
•
The hacking device will automatically search for the correct code. Each time it finds
a potentially valid number in one of the columns, it will freeze it. Once a column is
composed entirely of frozen numbers, it will be validated and one of the four code
elements will be validated.
•
This process might take longer than the authorized time given by the timer at the
top. You can speed up the process by manually validating a frozen number using the
highlighted cursor, which can be moved up and down and left and right in all the
columns. Select a number and press the to validate it. If it is a frozen
code element, the column is immediately validated and it appears in the code
element screen. If it was an un-frozen number the entire column is reinitialized and
a warning light is triggered.
•
When all the code elements are validated, the hack is successful.
•
You can abort a hacking attempt at any time by pressing the posture key.
•
Failing a hack attempt or aborting when the time is in the red zone will sound an alarm.
Safe-Cracking Gameplay
•
Alternately turn the combination dial from left to right to align the tumblers inside
the safe. When the tumblers are aligned, the lock is released and the safe opens.
•
To turn the dial, press the left and right directional keys. This makes the dial rotate,
driving the inner wheels – first the outermost wheel, then the one immediately next
to it, and so on until the outer wheel starts rotating.
•
When the closest wheel is about to reach the correct position, a small light will start
to flash; when it reaches the correct position this light will stay on. Release the
directional key to set the wheel where it is, then turn it in the opposite direction to
start the rotating process again until the second closest wheel is at the correct
position.
•
CAUTION: If you turn the tumblers too far in the same direction the outer wheel will
start rotating again and all progress made on the lock will be reinitialized.
•
Following the same process you must set all three wheels in position. When the last
wheel is locked into position, release the directional key – the safe opens.

17
Mine Assembling Gameplay
Sam may be asked to assemble mines. The detonator must be inserted in the mine using
a mechanical arm.
•
Use the primary attack key to control the speed and vertical direction of the
mechanical arm. This allows you to place the detonator in the mine.
•
Simultaneously use the directional keys to compensate for vibration in order to place
the detonator in the very center of the mine.
Email Decrypting Gameplay
To decrypt an email, Sam must use his logic in order to decipher the code used by the
sender to protect the message. The system of protection appears as a virtual cube
divided into 24 tiles. A blue tile indicates a correct value; a red tile indicates an incorrect
value.
•
Use the primary attack key to rotate the cube on the horizontal axis and the
secondary attack key to rotate the cube on the vertical axis
•
Use the directional keys to select a specific tile.
•
Use the action key to increment the value of the code on each tile.
•
Once all the tiles are set to the right value, the cube will open and reveal its hidden
content.
Bomb Defusal Gameplay
Defusing a bomb is achieved by using a mechanical arm to remove the detonator from
its core. The explosive in the bomb is highly sensitive to heat and must be kept to a
subzero temperature. In addition, the bomb core, a vertical tube, is protected by an
array of laser beams.
•
Use the primary attack key to control the speed and vertical direction of the
mechanical arm. This allows you to grab the detonator.

to distinguish. If the object disappears from the direct field of vision, the frame gradually
disappears. AMC is always on.
