| - Lieutenant Frank Moran was an NYPD dective, who suspected that Russell Nash, aka Connor MacLeod, was behind the beheading at Madison Square Garden, and the series of other mysterious decapitations in the city, but he was unable to find proof enough to hold him. When a surviving witness, Kirk Mantunas, told him that the man who beheaded another in front of him, and then stabbed him, was not Nash, but another, and then went on to try and describe the Quickening, Moran was more than a little confused. He was unaware of the immortals and the Game.
- Born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Moran studied dentistry at the University of Pittsburgh where he also played football. He played professional football for the Pittsburgh Lyceums and Akron Pros as a guard and center.

| - Born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Moran studied dentistry at the University of Pittsburgh where he also played football. He played professional football for the Pittsburgh Lyceums and Akron Pros as a guard and center. While Moran was serving in the U.S. Navy in 1908, he knocked out fighter Fred Cooley in the second round. He began his career as a prize-fighter that same year with a match against Fred Broad. Soon, Moran, who had a hard right hand punch which he called "Mary Ann", became known as the "White Hope" of the teens. In 1914 he fought Jack Johnson for the Heavyweight Championship of the World, and in 1916 "The Fighting Dentist" went up against Jess Willard for the same title, but lost both bouts. He lost his last fight to Marcel Nilles for the Heavyweight Championship of France on December 22, 1922. He retired from boxing after 66 bouts with a record of 36 wins (28 by a knockout), 13 losses, 16 draws and 1 no contest.
