Biography

Rising Star

In an agent evaluation report conducted on 8 November 2012, Ctibor Hašek identified Berg as a potential candidate for the Inner Sanctum, noting him as an obedient, loyal agent who was dedicated to the Templar cause. However, Hašek was concerned that Berg's daughter could be a weakness.

On 16 November, Berg was sent to Manhattan, New York by Laetitia England to investigate a possible break-in at the Abstergo Industries office in the city. He discovered Daniel Cross, who had escaped the Philadelphia facility the previous day, in the office, injured from a confrontation with the Assassin Desmond Miles. Daniel had been suffering from the Bleeding Effect, and attacked Berg, but Berg neutralized him and returned him to Abstergo.

Nine days later, in Helsinki, Finland, Berg was seen spending time with his three-year old daughter.

Raid in Florence

On 28 November, Berg followed an Assassin on Regional road SR2, following an Assassin attack on a Abstergo facility that killed four Abstergo hackers. Berg called his superiors and informed them of the situation, convincing them to allow him to follow the Assassin back to his base instead of killing him. Berg successfully followed the Assassin back to a secret Assassin base in Florence run by Adriano Maestranzi and Harlan T. Cunningham, and he called for backup to launch a raid.

Berg was given command of Sigma Team and began the attack on 30 November at 6:27 A.M, killing three Assassins during the fighting. However, Adriano detonated a bomb during the battle, which destroyed the hideout and Aassassin files, allowed Harlan to escape, and killed all of Sigma Team except for Berg, who suffered burns that left facial scaring. Despite the outcome, Berg's superiors were pleased with his performance and he was not blamed for the loss of Sigma Team.
