A long-serving member of the British military, Nathan Godfrey has served in two World Wars, in both the Army and the Navy, and in two secret intelligence agencies over the course of a career that has lasted nearly ninety years.
As one might expect of an individual with such a long and active career, Nathan posesses a mutant ability that makes his age almost impossible to determine.
| First World War

| Though originally farmers, the Godfrey family came into moderate prosperity by taking advantage of the industrial revolution. Though Nathaniel played an active role in the family business, the outbreak of the First World War saw him leave home to join the Army, with the Godfrey wealth buying entry into the military as an officer.
Lieutenant Godfrey served in the trenches, and found the entire experience to be deeply unsettling. It was not the battles or death or living conditions that affected him the most, however: as a mutant with mild hydrokinetic abilities, the idea of being constantly half-submerged in the earth was something he found difficult to cope with.
Military service gave Nathaniel a sense of purpose that he had not previously posessed, however. Following the war's resolution, he left the Army and instead chose to pursue a career in the Navy.

| Second World War
|
| By the time Nathaniel became an officer in the Royal Navy, his age - according to his birth certificate - was becoming significantly higher than his apparent age. It was a side effect of his regenerative abilities; and while it was not something that Nathaniel minded in the slightest, it was enough to attract the attention of certain elements within the military. Nathan was approached by Navy Intelligence, and went on to spend the remainder of his career working with them in some capacity.
By the outbreak of the Second World War, Commander Godfrey was an important member of the Navy Intelligence staff. His position saw him involved not only with naval operations, but also with units of what would eventually become the SBS, and in the deployment of British Commandos.
His status as a mutant, combined with his position in the intelligence community saw him cross paths with Marshall and Wayland Godfrey: two of his nephews who were both heavily involved with Operation Pelius.
