Face what, Prophet? I don't fear the empty words of yesterday's man.

BIOGRAPHY:
Gideon grew up in the impoverished, poisoned Middle American wasteland. His calling came to him in the form of a traveling Nod preacher, as well as his father, who joined the Brotherhood some years before. Since then, he built up a considerable following through a mix of gut-punching evangelism and radical Nod prophecies, eventually becoming the leader of the Black Hand cult and going as far as denouncing Kane. This led him to forming the Nod Separatists movement in an all-out war against GDI and Nod. One of his most venomous critiques of Kane concerned the Scorpion tank of the Third Tiberium War and its failure to become a major part of the Brotherhood arsenal.

Interestingly, Kane mentions that Gideon is one of his greatest disciples and was one of the factors responsible for bringing Christian Pierce to the New York Public Library, so that the latter can retrieve a valuable data store for the Nod Prophet. It is possible that Gideon's actions during the Incursion War were sanctioned by Kane and he himself worked for him. While Gideon's actions during the Tiberian Twilight campaign were in contradiction of Kane's plans, it is entirely possible that he simply went rogue at one point, snapping due to the pressure, or that Gideon fully understanding the TCN declared it heresy and turned on Kane. One other possible theory is that Kane manipulated Gideon's actions to do him a service during the Incursion War.
