Also, if this has to do with the contradictory stories here is what I found on wikipedia -

"Quake 3 can only be considered partial canon for the other Quake and Doom games as the game is based on another dimension, the Arena Eternal."

So perhaps this game could be considered canon, but everything happens in an alternate dimension. Like I said I have not touched it so I cannot be too sure, but it sounds like it could be possible. Thus none of the characters in Q3 could be looked at as having to do with Q2 or Q1, it is another universe where other things have happened (very explainable if you read comics, there is a large number of dimmensions used to keep the continuity together and has been embraced by the writers).
