{{nihongo|Liquid Snake|リキッド・スネーク|Rikiddo Sunēku|lead=yes}} was raised in the United Kingdom following his birth, and served as an operative for the British [[Special Air Service|SAS]] and later became the field commander of FOXHOUND during ''[[Metal Gear Solid (1998 video game)|Metal Gear Solid]]'', leading [[Revolver Ocelot]], [[Psycho Mantis]], [[Sniper Wolf]], [[Vulcan Raven]],  [[Decoy Octopus]] and the Genome Soldiers.<ref>{{cite video game|title=[[Metal Gear Solid (1998 video game)|Metal Gear Solid]]|developer=[[Kojima Productions|KCE Japan]]|year=1999|quote='''Roy Campbell:''' But he never once showed his face in Century House.

Liquid harbors a strong resentment towards [[Solid Snake]], as he mistakenly believes that Snake received Big Boss's superior genes while he was given only the flawed genes. In reality, it is Liquid who carries superior genes.<ref name=MGSpostcred>{{cite video game|title=[[Metal Gear Solid (1998 video game)|Metal Gear Solid]]|developer=KCE Japan|quote='''Revolver Ocelot''': Yes.

Snake first meets Liquid after he is taken captive by the enemy and imprisoned in a medical room. The two battle each other multiple times throughout the story. First, Liquid tries to kill Snake by piloting a Hind D and pursuing him across the Communication Towers but Snake destroys the helicopter with anti-air Stinger missiles. Afterward, Liquid manipulates Snake into activating [[Metal Gear (mecha)#Metal Gear REX|Metal Gear REX]] by disguising himself as [[List of Metal Gear characters#Master Miller|Master Miller]]. Snake destroys REX but falls unconscious in the aftermath which allowed Liquid to take his brother to the top of REX's ruins and challenge to a fistfight. Snake prevails but Liquid survives again and pursues Snake in a jeep chase that results in a crash outside the island's facility. Just as he approaches Snake, Liquid suddenly succumbs to the same FOXDIE virus that had also been injected into Snake. Liquid's death leaves Snake in doubt of his own survival, as FOXDIE targets victims based on specific DNA.
