    "Spartans never die. They're just MIA."


    You are a SPARTAN IV stationed aboard the UNSC Infinity. You are part of a new fireteam that is being created by some of the other soldiers aboard the Infinity. The new team will not be sent on specific operations, so be prepared for anything. The leader of the fireteam will be Michael, an experienced soldier who has been on many successful operations. He has participated in the first and second battles of Requiem, the Battle of Earth, and some other less important Operations. Your mission will be assigned tomorrow at a briefing at 7 AM. There will be other missions, so try not to do overly dramatic stuff that might get you killed. You're no use to the team dead.

    Other race options:
    Forerunner: Genocidal robots or a builder or monitor or something I forgot.
    Elites/jackals/grunts/engineer/other previously covenant race: Sword of Sanghios or Covenant Remnant.
    Other Humans: Marines and ODSTs

    Name: Gros F'ghal
    Gender: M
    Age: 28

    Facial appearance or full picture: View attachment 167793
    Primary armor color: black
    Secondary armor color: bright red


    Backstory (optional): Being a T'vaoan/Ibie'Shan crossbreed, he was always an outcast. And for his small size, an outcast among outcasts. Throw in a male gender, and you've got yourself a bottom feeder. Joining up with a band of Kig-Yar pirates, Gros was never looked on with respect. In fact, he was always looked down on both literally and figuratively. When his crew was hired by the covenant against the UNSC, that was the last straw. When they planned to ambush a group of UNSC soldiers, he betrayed them right when they needed him most... No longer did they look down on him. He looked down at their corpses at the bottom of the cliff. Looked to the UNSC in the valley below, and they looked up to him. And for once, he felt purpose... He considered joining them and helping where he could, following along like a silent guardian. After they had finished their mission, he then left with them on their small ship, leaving behind the now deserted crew ship for the UNSC or whomever to find. He went on to live the life of a mercenary, pirate raider, and spy against the covenant. Now he's going to help the UNSC directly, either an inside man or as an addition to the team...
    Positive traits:
    Swashbuckler: cutlass and pistol at the ready. With as much raiding and combat experience as he has, he's adopted his own form of what he calls "combat acrobatics". "I can run, and I can hide... Your bodies that is..."
    Little sneak: he's got very dexterous claws, and a knack for hiding anywhere. His strong arms and legs allow him to silently climb and sneak in all of the right places. His small size at just a bit over an Unggov, which many underestimate, is just perfect for using any small area as a hiding place. "If I had me one of them fancy shmancy cloaking devices, the only reason the covenant would be alive is because of how fast they breed..."

    Human company: he's had experience with them before, and is comfortable around them, even picking up snippets of English here and there and learning to play poker.
    Negative traits:
    Small size: unfortunately, his small size also means he's got small bones to break and little blood to lose. He's also very sensitive of his being vertically challenged, and can get irrationally angry at even passing comments.
    Reputation: his high bounty makes him a target, and someone probably worth betraying if given the chance. Everyone is an enemy, and probably wants his blood money.
    Driving inept: having never actually flown in combat before and never used a ground or atmospheric flying vehicle, he'd probably be able to somehow total a forklift...
    Crossbreed filth: among other Kig-Yar, he's always looked down upon... And he will never forget that.
    Weapon of choice: energy cutlass (a small sized low power energy saber that is quite dim, but sharp enough to cut through armor.)
    Weapons (2): plasma pistol and 2 plasma grenades.

    Facial Appearance: Short brown hair, bright blue eyes, slightly thin face, almost never a serious or hateful expression.


    Primary Color: Midnight Blue


    Secondary Color: Neon green


    Armor Permutation: Recruit



    Backstory: Ever hear of a Spartan with a sense of humor? If not, you're in for a surprise..but, why spoil a surprise? Sure he's fresh off the block, sure he's sarcastic, sure he still doesn't understand half the lingo..doesn't mean he can't learn..


    ((Gonna leave this almost blank so folks gotta pry to learn about him..)

    Positive Traits:

    Humorous attitude: If he doesn't piss people off, he charms them.


    Quick learner: He knows enough to pay attention to lessons and to catch small facts.


    Beginner's Enthusiasm: He hasn't seen battle or the bad things that happen, so he'll walk in with pep in his step.


    Bright Attitude: He'll still crack a joke when he is losing a fight.



    Negative Traits:

    Humorous Attitude: If he doesn't charm people, he pisses them off.

    Favors distance: He is by no means excited with getting close to the enemy, usually just within reach of his SMG is almost too much..

    (But wait! There's more!)

    Positive:

    Marksman: Great shot at long range, mellows as the target is closer.

    Primary armor color: Blue
    Secondary armor color: White
    Armor permutation: (OPTIONAL) EVA, with a blue visor and a wrist bracer.


    Backstory (optional): "Ah, that man I swear, he's a miracle worker. Probably where he got the name Omen. I don't know how he does it, he just runs off, and a few minutes later, there's a field of dead covenant, an unblocked pathway, a cleared drop zone, and he'll just be sitting there on a rock, cleaning his knife. He's silent on the field, mostly communicating with hud indicators and hand signals, but he does talk, I've heard 'im, he's probably a nice guy, but I've seen what he can do and believe me, you'd better hope you're not on his bad side."

    Backstory (optional): Just your normal, garden-variety Promethean sniper, until he received CPU damage causing him to regain some emotions, but causing him to behave erratically at times.
    Positive traits:
    • Sniper: very accurate
    • Promethean: can't feel pain
    • Soldier: can teleport short distances
    Negative traits:
    • CPU Damage: behaves erratically at times

    Name: Chu'R-Plu
    Gender: Female
    Age: 35

    Facial appearance or full picture:
    View attachment 173510
    Primary armor color: Red
    Secondary armor color: Orange


    Backstory (optional): Chu'r-Plu was shipmistress of a corvette class ship near the end of the Human-Covenant war, originally only in it for the money. After the Great Schism that split the Elites/Sangheili from the Covenant, she had caught word of what the Halo's true use and became one of the very few Jackals/Kig-Yar that also diverged from the Covenant and joined the Separatists (there's no use of all the money in the world if you're dead!). Once the humans won the war, it only made sense for her to join the Swords of Sanghelios where she also met and befriended Mei 'Sangam.


    Positive traits:
    • If you can drive a stick...: Even if she's never operated a certain vehicle before, she picks up how to control them at an impressive rate. Sure, she may get confused at how to back up when first driving a warthog and curse about the inefficiencies of a gas and brake pedal, but she's a quick learner.
    • Light foot: Plu's light weight makes her capable of running fairly quickly and without much sound so long as she isn't carrying too much.
    Negative traits:
    • Foreign Speaker: Being used to speaking in her native tongue for so long, she has a hard time speaking the language of humans and general any other langue. Her friend Mie typically has to translate things for her, or suffer the annoyances of language barriers.
    • Easily encumbered: Plu never had enough conditioning training, so carrying larger weapons, such as sniper rifles, launchers, etc. will make it very difficult to carry anything else, even a sidearm.
    Weapon of choice: Focus Rifle
    Weapons (2): Plasma Rifle, Plasma Pistol, +1 Plasma grenade

    (18 points left, max of 10 per section)
    Avoidance: 1
    Accuracy: 7
    Driving: 10

    (OPTIONAL)
    Anything else I forgot/you want me to improve: Maybe character personality? o3o



    Name: Mie 'Sangam

    Facial appearance or full picture:
    View attachment 173523
    Primary armor color: Dark-Green
    Secondary armor color: Grey
    Armor permutation: Ranger

    Backstory (optional): (I'll do this later. I'm too tired as I write this.)


    Positive traits:
    • Polyglot: Mie is capable of speaking many languages, including a few human languages outside of English, though she mostly uses this to translate for Chu'r Plu.
    • CQC Specialist: Thanks to being trained how to fight at a young age and further trained when joining the Swords of Sanghelios, Mie is very capable fighting unarmed, at melee weapons distance, and with close range weapons.
    Negative traits:
    • Photophobia: She can quickly be temporarily blinded by too much light, especially if in a dark room and lights are sudden turned on. Simply stepping outside while the sun is out is enough to give her a bit of a headache for awhile.
    • Near-sighted: Long ranged combat is difficult for Mie as objects start to become a little fuzzy the further away they are from her.
    Weapon of choice: Gravity Hammer
    Weapons (2): Needler, Energy Dagger, +1 Plasma grenade

    Yes, but I would change from frag to pulse.

    Some random comments

    HOW DID YOU MAKE AN APP IN LIKE 5 MINUTES?!?!

    Age: OVER 9000!

    Permutation is for the SPARTANS, it's what kind of armor you have. (Ex. Soldier, EVA, Recruit.)
    Also the SPARTAN thing is capitalized because I think it's supposed to be, I'm not mad or anything.

    Also... you want a Halo 4 or 5 bolt shot?

    EDIT: how'd you get that bit of your post out of my quote? Forerunner stuff I guess.
