Guess you were bitten by the same bug. There's only one cure, you know, once you've caught the disease.
~ Walton Simons

Walton Simons is the secondary antagonist in the game Deus Ex and presumably one of the overall main antagonists of the entire Deus Ex franchise. He's the director of both FEMA and UNATCO as well as a very powerful government official in Washington, D.C.. He's secretly the right-hand man of Bob Page and is the second-in-command of Majestic 12, which currently rules the world.

Overview[]

Walton Simons' past is unknown, but he's been a government official for a period of time. He's the current director of FEMA, but was only permited to his position by Bob Page, who manipulated an unknown senator who was infected with the Gray Death, and went to work immediately. A mysterious cloak-and-dagger man, he first appeared after JC Denton completed his objectives on Battery Park and captured two NSF operatives. Simons is the first higher-up to be seen and he interrogated the insurgents which ended with Simons having the two of them executed. Walter Simons is one of the few nano-augmented people with Page at the time, but he's considered to be one of the most dangerous people in all of Majestic 12 according to JC and Paul Denton. He has no sense of humor and only tolerates people when he needs to.

Although he's heavily augmented with various combat-aiding modifications (with his face being let up with bioelectronics), claims that his nano-augmentations are used purely for security reasons and for disaster relief for FEMA. His nano-augmentations make him immune to gas, flames, plasma ammunition rounds, and prods along with small arms fire and ammunition. He also possessess a targeting and remote detonation aug as well to add on to the list of augmentations that Walton has. He's also always seen being escorted by two or more Men in Black. Simons' has combat-oriented augmentations with it being revealed later int he game that he carries a Plasma Rifle, LAM grenade, and a Dragon Tooth Sword )(the Dragon Sword and Plasma Rifle are high powered weapons with almost instant lethal capabilities). 

Not only is Simons a skilled fighter, he's also a machiavellian politician who uses his power and influence to intimidation and coerce and command numerous underlings. This is seen durign Simons' conversation with Joseph Manderley, a bureaucrat who was put in charge as the Director of UNATCO due to his willingness to take orders from Majestic 12. Later in the game, he shows up trying to kill JC at one of MJ12's offshore bases and will later appear in the command building ar Area 51 if he were to fail. Simons also has a habit of constantly charging his bioelectric reserves to keep them at 100% efficiency, which causes a sharp pain behind his eyes that Jaime Reyes often tells him to stop doing. If JC doesn't kill Manderley during his escape from UNATCO HQ, then Simons will kill the director instead and during an interrogation, he has two captured NSF soldiers executed for not cooperating, even though he says that he had information on their families.
