'''K. Lee-Creel''' is a minor character in ''[[Doom 3]]''. He is a [[Marine]] stationed at Marine Command in [[Mars City]].
== ''[[Doom 3]]'' ==
When the player meets Lee-Creel, he is trying to reconfigure an inactive [[Sentry Bot]] with his [[PDA]].
He was tragically killed during the demon invasion, along with nearly all the personnel at Marine Command.
== ''[[Mercury Rising|Doom: Mercury Rising]]'' ==
In the timeline of the [[Mercury Rising|''<u>Doom: Mercury Rising</u>'']] campaign (set in 2141, four years before [[Doom 3]]), '''Lee-Creel''' served on Mercury as part of the military detail for [[Mercury Rising - Part One/UAC Operations#Operation Oversight|''<u>Operation Oversight</u>'']] Phase Two. He was responsible for escorting UAC personnel who were being transferred to Mars as part of a large-scale recruitment drive.
His personal PDA entries reveal his real name (that is, '''Kekoa''') and also his <u>deep dissatisfaction</u> with his posting on Mercury, which he felt wasted his talents. His final message documents his plan to sabotage the transport to make his own unauthorized transfer to Mars, stating that he had managed to override the transport's automated rocket propulsion.<blockquote>'''Sorry, Boss, but I'm f* cking done!''' (Excerpt)<br><br>"''This is madness, Boss and not fair! ... I managed to override this crazy automation and shut down the rocket propulsion. F* ck this AI! Once we slow down, I’m getting off at Titian Terrace. I'm taking my chances on Mars, Boss!...''"</blockquote>'''Kekoa'''<nowiki/>'s fate and the outcome of his desperate escape attempt are fully revealed only by playing the complete [[Mercury Rising|''<u>Doom: Mercury Rising</u>'']] campaign, and are further detailed in the ''[[Mercury Rising - Part One/UAC Personnel#K. Lee-Creel|<u>UAC Personnel</u>]]'' page.
