== History == Edward "Ned" Goodwin, also known as The Figure, is the main antagonist of '''Firewatch'''. He is a former firewatch guard from [[Two Forks Lookout]] who, unintentionally, caused the violent death of his young son [[Brian Goodwin|Brian]]. Instead of reporting his son's death, Goodwin proceeded to hide out in the park and harm anybody who came close to exposing him. It was stated by Delilah that before Ned worked for the forest service he was a member of the United States Army where he received his training in electrical communications and was eventually discharged due to his mother's death. Prior to joining the fire watch he had a son named [[Brian Goodwin|Brian]] whom he seemed to have a strained relationship with. Three years prior to [[Henry]] joining the fire watch Ned took a job with the forest service and was stationed at the [[Two Forks Lookout|Two Forks Tower]], bringing his son [[Brian Goodwin|Brian]] along despite it being against regulation. He would attempt to teach Brian about rappelling and mountaineering despite his son having no interest in the activity. It was during one of these lessons that Brian would fall to his death in Cave 452 after one of his climbing anchors came loose. Rather than return home and endure the questions and ordeal of a funeral, Ned fled into the wilderness, leaving no trace of where he'd gone. At some point afterward, he would set up a base camp of sorts in the old bunker, salvaging or stealing whatever he needed to get by. At some unknown point Ned stole the key to the access gate inside the Cave 452, locking it off from the public to prevent Brian's body from being discovered.
