[b]Specialty:[/b]

[b]Bio Summery:[/b]




Name: S-II's through S-III's only have their first names and number tag, but S-IV's still posses their surnames (no numbers, even after their names).

Rank: Apparently, the Spartan branch uses Navy ranks. Any Lieutenant rank for the leaders of a fireteam, any Warrant Officer for more experienced Spartans, and the Petty Officer's for newer recruits. Only Staff Members or those who I approve of can lead fireteams; I know Duffle already has dibs on Wyvern's leader.

Team: We have Mythic, Wyvern, and Reaper. Reaper is a sniper team; Mythic is the stealth, infiltration, and scouting specialist fireteam; Wyvern are shocktroopers, rough terrain experts, and droppers (meaning dropping in HEV's).

Age: The SPARTAN-II's of Class 2525 are chronologically 47 or so; those from the Class of 2545 are about 27. SPARTAN-III's from Alpha Company are anywhere from 31 to 34; Beta Company Spartans are about 23 to 26. I am currently not allowing Gamma Company S-III's. SPARTAN-IV's are, on average, 29 years old and veterans who have proved themselves in at least a few battles. I won't accept anyone below the age of 24.

Gender: Obvious.

SPARTAN Generation: No ORION's. S-II's through S-IV's are allowed, but not too many II's, please; however, if you make one from the Class II, that may be accepted, depending.

Height: Male SPARTAN-II's and SPARTAN-IV's on average are 7', while females are 6'9". SPARTAN-III's are 6'9"-6'10" for males on average, and females are 6'7"-6'8".

Weight: SPARTAN-II and SPARTAN-IV males are 310 lbs on average, while females are 270 lbs. Male SPARTAN-III's are 285 lbs. on average, and females are 250 lbs.

Appearance: A smallish paragraph about how the Spartan and armor look. Pictures are appreciated.

Personality: Short paragraph; at the very least a sentence or two.

Skills: What they're good at.

Specialty: Stealth, explosives, heavy weapons, assault, etc.

Equipment: Any weapons or tools they may carry, including their armor ability.

Bio Summery: Two to three decently sized paragraphs summarizing their life. Please refrain from making things too terribly insane, please. Also, mention whether or not your Spartan fought when Infinity first arrived on Requiem; if they did, s/he would be familiar with the Prometheans already, while those who don't won't know much about dealing with them.






((This is my Spartan. Obviously.))

Name: Lysander-003
Rank: Lieutenant
Team: Mythic
Age:
~Chronologically: 47
~Biologically: 39-ish
Gender: Male
SPARTAN Generation: SPARTAN-II
Height: 6' 10"
Weight: 317 lbs.
Appearance: Lysander is a short but stocky man of Native American and German descent, with reddish skin and buzzed-cut salt and pepper hair. He doesn't bear many scars on his body, though there is a long cut going diagonally from the upper left side of his chest to just below his ribcage. His eyes are a twinkling grey set in an angular face.

His MJOLNIR GEN2 armor is of the Mark VI variant, and colored a charcoal-grey.




Personality: Lysander is usually quiet in social situations, but he occasionally makes sarcastic quips during battle.

Skills: Lysander is excellent in close-quarters, and has nearly infinite patience. He remains calm during battle, allowing him to make clear decisions. He is very fast for a Spartan, on par with the likes of Kelly.
Specialty: Stealth/Assault
Equipment:
~MA5K (suppressed)
~M6C/SOCOM
~4 M9 Fragmentation Grenades
~4 Flashbang Grenades
~2 Combat Knives (located on the left and right sides of his hip)
~Various Explosives
~Active Camouflage

Bio Summery:
Even though Lysander is a member of the legendary Class of 2525, he was declared medically dead after the augmentation procedures when his heart gave out due to complications. However, in 2532, a way was found which would be able to resuscitate and keep him alive and stable for battle situations; since he had been put in a cryo pod and launched into space with the trajectory being noted, he was easily found and revived.

After this, Lysander became a lone wolf Spartan who operated as a black operations agent whose confidentiality was on par with Teams' Grey and Black. He was often deployed for weeks, months, even a year or more on missions.

He was been folded into the SPARTAN-IV program in 2553, and fought on Requiem when the Infinity first arrived there. Currently, he is the leader of Fireteam Mythic.

NOTES

[/size]


Armor:
Despite the Halo CE Mark V armor having stronger shields and more health than the armor of later games, this is merely a gameplay mechanic and is non-canon. The Mark VI had at least double the amount of shielding, while the GEN2 variants have improved even more, making them comparable with Ultra Sangheili's shielding. The improvements to physical abilities are also better with the GEN2 variants, meaning the increase to strength is now improved by a factor of 5.5 to 6 instead of the Mark VI's 5; the speed factor is also improved, but not by much, seeing as how near-instantaneous thought-to-movement speed is difficult to improve further. This allows Spartans to now be roughly on par with a Sangheili's strength, and the stronger ones could possibly even get close to a Promethean Knight's strength.

Weapons and Equipment:
All weapons are allowed, not just those from Halo 4. Your character can also utilize Promethean or Covenant weaponry if s/he wishes. As for armor abilities, all of the ones from Halo 4 are allowed. However, please note that their "energy" is far better than in the game, meaning active camouflage can be on for hours as a time, and you can use the thruster pack more than once every six seconds if you need to. As an additional word for thruster packs and jetpacks, they derive energy from their own separate power cells and the MJOLNIR armor's, meaning they don't have to refuel, only recharge; they are also much more powerful than in the games, as the jetpack is more like the one from Deliver Hope, and the thruster pack can boost a Spartan about three to four meters on the standard setting. Also, there is no radar jammer effect from the active camouflage unless the user turns it on; this will only confuse enemies who have radar, of course. The active camouflage has also improved so that it is harder to see using thermal vision.

Fireteams
The standard SPARTAN-IV fireteam is 4-5 members large. I will cut off admittance to the fireteams who reach 5 members when that happens, meaning this truly is a first come first serve RP. Also, you cannot have more than one Spartan at a time, even if they are in different teams; your current one has to be killed or transferred before you can make a new one. So, think carefully about your Spartans before posting them here, unless you would like them to die for some reason.

((I will be providing more informational notes as time progresses.))

[Dufflepud]

Name: Guilio (JOO-LI-OH) Torrigiani
Rank: LTJG
Team: Wyvern
Age:
True: 31
Biologically: 26
Gender: Male
SPARTAN Generation: SPARTAN IV
Height: 7' unarmored, 7'4" in armor
Weight: 318lbs unarmored
Appearance:


Guilio us a perfect example of someone who went from relatively short to massive through augmentations. He is a full blooded Sicilian, as his name might suggest, with fairly dark skin (for a caucasian), deep brown eyes, and nearly black hair. He comes across as looking quite young, due to his lack of facial hair. He has no large distinguishable scars, and is instead peppered with smaller ones across his chest, arms, and legs. He wears the Venerator armor permutation.

Personality:

Guilio poseeses a sarcrastic sense of humor that often gets on the nerves of his comrades. Although this cynnicism is his method of coping with the strain of battle, he has learned to supress it over the years. He is capable of remaining perfectly capable of remaining silent for hours, but then suddenly busrting out into loud conversation, and becoming very social. Suffice it to say that he can be very unpredictable. this also extends to his general behavior, and his peers have been known to call him a "crazy mother f*cker." However this doesn't really bother him. During combat, he prefers to wield his M6I magnum in one hand, with his blade in the other, as he prefers hand guns over rifles.

Skills:
-Skilled in melee combat
-Extremely fast, even compared to other SPARTANs
-Extraordinary reflexes, even compared to other SPARTANs
Specialty: Mobility/Rough Terrain, Orbital Insertion
Equipment:

-40" Heavy Combat Blade (located across back.)

-2x M6I Select-Fire Magnums

-M363 RPD (Sticky Detonator)

-Napalm Grenades

-Jet Pack

Bio Summery:

Guilio joined the marines after his sister, an ODST, died in combat against the Covenant. However, after the events of the great war, he was surprisingly tolerant of the newfound Sangheili allies. When the SPARTAN IV program was brought to his attention, he volunteered immediately. He had been bullied for quite some time due to his diminutive stature and ethnic heritage, and although he justified it to himself with many other reasons, the primary factor in his choosing to volunteer was a lust for the physical power brough on through augmentation.

He currently is the leader of Fireteam Wyvern aboard the UNSC Infinity, and has engaged in multiple ground battles on Requiem. His team specializes as paratroopers, providing support from above, or quickly traversing rough terrain.

[Spartan 999]

Approved.

I assume from the "engaged in multiple ground battles on Requiem", he was there when Infinity first arrived at Requiem.

[Arbiter124]

Name: Drake Smith

Rank: Warrant Officer

Team: FireTeam Osprey

Age: 23

Gender: Male

SPARTAN Generation: IV

Height: 7'1"

Weight: 311 lbs.

Appearance: A SPARTAN of average size, Drake is a bulky figure. He is Caucasian, and a huge one at that, still holding a slender look. No noticeable scars or wounds adorn his body or armor set. He wears a full FOTUS armor set, colored grey.




Personality: Drake is an aggressive, sadistic person in general. He hates the covenant, more than the prometheans. He isn't very friendly whatsoever, preferring action more than words. Always eager for combat, he can be impatient at times.

Skills: A very noticeable trait of Drake is his skill in close quarters combat. He has taken Sangheili in hand to hand fights before, and takes great pride in this talent. Drake is determined, to say the least. His strong will and hate of loss causes him to fight and fight, no matter the cost, no matter the numbers. He would not hesitate to get his team out of a situation before himself.

Specialty: Close-Quarters

Equipment: M45D Tactical Shotgun, M7 Submachine gun, M6G, Smoke Grenades, 25-inch machete, Jetpack



Bio Summary: Drake was apart of the ODSTs during the first war with the Covenant Empire. He had seen several battles during that time in his life, and had worked his way up the ranks fairly quick. He showed great status, and was what some would say a survivor. He had lived through five separate war occasions in this time span during the war with the Covenant. He primarily had served on Earth. After the Human-Covenant war, Drake didn't see much action.

Soon enough, however, Drake was accepted into the program that was shadily known as the SPARTAN-IV at the time. He went into augmentations, and quickly realized that they were trying to give rebirth to the legendary SPARTANs. Eventually, he was assigned the newly augmented FOTUS armor and was assigned to FireTeam Osprey, where he has seen little, but some action.


Service on Reqiuem:
N/A

[Spartan 999]

Approved ACTUALLY! Lieutenants are Fireteam leaders, so you would have to change your rank to a Warrant Officer or Petty Officer rank. Sorry for not catching that at first.

[Daenerys Targaryen]

Name: Dani-047
Rank: Lieutenant
Team: Fire-Team Raptor.
Age: 44
Gender: Female
SPARTAN Generation: SPARTAN-II
Height: 6'6
Weight: 210 LBS
Appearance:



Armor: Dani has shed her Mark IV power armor during her long career and adopted newer armor for a different type of war. She now wears Mark V MJOLNIR armor.

Her armor holds a palette of dark green green, dark brown brown, and dark gray.

Personality: Dani-047 has been made into a fine soldier, her fortitude and level headiness is only rivaled by a few other members of this project. Though the indoctrination process has wiped most of her fighting personality clean, some of it has remained, so has her positive out looks on things.

Skills:
She is extremely obedient
She tends to boost the moral of ones around her
She excels in ranged weaponry
She is very observant of her enemies, taking note on their tactics and behaviors for future reference
She is a thinker, she will always plan things out and come prepared

Specialty: Scout (Sharpshooter)

Equipment:
-Primary Weapon- BR55 Series Battle Rifle/bayonet attachment
-Secondary Weapon- M7 Series Sub machine Gun
-Combat Knife
-Case of bio foam cans and basic first aid supplies magnetized to the small of her back, along with a medical scanner.

Bio Summery:
Dani, born and somewhat raised on Ganymede was the apple of her parents eyes. Around the age of six she was abducted and indocternated into the Spartan-II program. She has seen many engagements with both insurrection and covenant during her long, strife-filled life. She has seen many things the newer spartans can only dream about. Along with some things that would only creep at the edges of their worst and most dark nightmares.

Coming out of the war, Dani almost washed out of the spartan program all together. Now that all the horror stories of the program were out, Dani learned the fate of her mother and the suspected fate of her father and decided not to follow up with it just yet. Instead she washed into the Spartan IV project and helped train newer spartans, eventually she was moved with survivors of her species into fire teams for operations on the infinity. From there she excelled on a few missions during the first battle of Requiem when the infinity first came to the planet. Now she stays with the infinity as a fixed member of the Spartan compliment on it... for now.

[Spartan 999]

I would imagine she'd get promoted to a Warrant Officer rank by 2558. Also, please state whether or not she participated in battle when Infinity first arrived on Requiem; come to think of it, I should put that bit in the Bio. Armor description would be nice too.

[Deleted]

Name: Coronell Titus
Rank: WO-3 Chief Warrant Officer
Team: Sniper Team Reaper
Age:
Biologically: about 25
True: 36
Gender: Male
SPARTAN Generation: IV
Height: 7'2"
Weight: 312 lbs
Appearance: Wears a deadeye helmet and his armor is painted black with a red secondary.. Titus has black hair which he always wears buzzed, and green eyes. He is very muscular, having been even before becoming a Spartan due to the rigors of being an ODST.

Personality:
He is pretty relaxed but he can get worked up in combat. He isn't afraid to brag, due to his ODST background, and he often trash talks the other Spartans.

Skills: First Recon; Sniper support;
Specialty: Sniping/marksmanship
Equipment:
-SRS99-S5 AM
-2 M7/Caseless Submachine Guns
-4 M9 Fragmentation Grenades
-Two canisters of C12

Bio Summary:
Originally an ODST scout-sniper, Titus eventually ended up in the Spartan-IV program. He took the augmentations well, and he performed good in marksmanship in training.

He has served in several operations, playing either the role of First Recon or black ops. He has survived through it all and has been folded into fireteam reaper as a sniper. He was out of action during the Infinity's jump to requiem, however, and did not partake in the ensuing battle.

[Spartan 999]

Please state whether or not you fought in the battle when Infinity first came to Requiem. Other than that he looks good, despite the short, short...short...Bio.

[Daenerys Targaryen]

Revised

[Spartan 999]

@beta: Approved.

[Huka]

Name: Magnus-A119
Rank: Chief Warrant Officer
Team: Fireteam Mythic
Age: 33
Gender: Male
SPARTAN Generation: III
Height: 6'10" ft
Weight: 295 lbs
Appearance:
A tall and apathically cold-faced Spartan-III of mostly African descendant, Magnus is dark-skinned that is paled from the lack of sunlight with short cut black hair, scars decorating the right side of his face and torso. His augmentation-caused pale eyes are usually heavily-lidded in apparent boredom and hide the sense of madness plagues the Spartan.



Personality:
A sociopath with warrior's spirit and studious experience with his enemies, especially the Sangheili. Cold and anti-social most of the time, however he does speak when necessary and usually to Lysander. He take a personal joy in encountering Sangheili, finding them to be worth his skills, especially use his CQC skills. He is known to write war peotry and speak Sangheili dialect, mostly to himself. If anyone have seen his personal belongings, a skull is found amongst them.

Skills:
A deadly fighter and resourceful infiltrator, Magnus uses his skills as a former Headhunter to deadly effect on the field. While skilled in firearms, he is far more deadly in stealth and CQC combat.

Specialty: Stealth

Equipment:
BR85 Heavy-barrel service rifle
Plasma pistol
Combat knives x2 (on pauldrons)
2 Flash grenades
4 Plasma grenades
Active Camouflage

Bio Summery:
Formerly a successful Headhunter of the SPARTAN-III program during the mid on-going years of the Human-Covenant War, Magnus-A119 was a deadly infiltrator and one of the vital players in keeping the Covenant in disarray until he was captured by a Zealot who've caught his scent.

Allowing his partner to escape, Magnus was captured and kept as a on-going prisoner for the Zealot, trying to pry information out of the Spartan, but he resisted as long as he could as well as find out more of the Sangheili until the Great Schism occurred.

Taking the chaos aboard the Zealot's ship to his advantage, he killed everyone, Seperatist and Loyalist alike, until he noticed the possibility of using the Seperatists to his advantage. Taking the wounded Zealot and forcing an alliance, the two escaped to UNSC space.

Instead of capture, Magnus took the Zealot as ally and the two kept close contact since then as respected associates. Now, Magnus intergrates into the new Spartan branch as a member of Fireteam Mythic and fought on Infinity's first travel to Requiem. It is needless to say he is eager to go again.

[Spartan 999]

Approved.

[Dufflepud]

Arby's character needs to rank below LTJG since I'm leading Osprey.

Leaders should be Ensign+, other members should be Warrant Officer-

[Spartan 999]

Yeah, I already said that.

[Kenny]

Name: Nico-A037
Rank: Warrant Officer I
Team: Fireteam Raptor
Age: 32
Gender: Male
SPARTAN Generation: SPARTAN III
Height: 6' 10''
Weight: 241 pounds
Appearance: With dark olive skin and dark brown eyes Nico's Native American heritage is obvious. He is tall and average size, along with being quite muscular. He has his hair in short braids hanging around his head and his nose is smaller than most. Next, he dons the 'Pathfinder' armor with the colors being dark, faded gray as the primary and dark blue being the secondary.


Personality: Very cold and usually silent, Nico works like the average SPARTAN. He isn't very talkative, lacks any sort of conscience or mercy in fighting style or tactics in general. He is usually mute, unless required to respond and has taken to using hand signals a lot. Most times he goes through battle like it's a ritual, constantly murmuring prayers and honoring his dead comrades as he rushes through his foes. Lastly the SPARTAN will sometimes speak out loud when listing details about whatever he is scouting about.

Skills: Fast, observant, intelligent and has great reactions
Specialty: Scout
Equipment: Two magnums, a kukri, active camo and a silenced DMR.

Bio Summary: Nico's life began as a normal one would when he was born on a small UNSC hunting planet. His father was the 'chief' in the town so as a boy he always received special training. He started growing into a fine hunter and into one of the only in the town as most other children around his age were female.

Eventually due to his skills, when the UNSC came to retrieve some food and check up on their progress they noticed the boy and kept a tab on him for ONI. Not long later, Nico was preparing for his small 'pilgrimage' so he was training with a relative at the next planet over. One day during this, an ONI agent showed up. He told him that while he was gone the Covenant had invaded and slaughtered his entire planet. They gave the boy sometime to recover and when he did, they asked him if he wanted to avenge his parents by joining the UNSC due to his set of skills. He accepted and was shipped off to a UNSC ship in another solar system.

When he arrived, Nico was in a room with many other boys and girls his age. He then heard a voice over an intercom which spoke;

'You have all been added to the SPARTAN III program. Soon you will undergo vigorous training and augmentations to become the best you can be. Welcome to the UNSC.'

Eventually he had turned into a soldier and a man where he was sent into battle.
___________________________________________________________________________________________

As a SPARTAN he participated in many minor battles and not that many major ones, unlike some of the better-known SPARTANs. Despite him being grown as a soldier, Nico held on to his memories as a child and the beliefs of his 'tribe.' All throughout battles he could be seen muttering prayers more so to hang on to his humanity then to keep religion in him.

There was one battle where he was sent with two ODST fire teams for recon. At one point he want with one of the two and ended up getting ambushed. As his first fellow soldier died Nico kept his cool and tried to help them pull out. Another, the leader, sacrificed himself as they retreated. With the SPARTAN and three ODSTs left, he heard one of them say he was as heartless as he heard most SPARTANs were. This struck Nico like a wrecking ball as they ran, trying to get away from the Covenant.

Though at one point as they ran yet another one of them was killed by a lucky shot from a beam rifle, leaving the helmet destroyed and man's head destroyed. The three remaining men just kept running, trying to escape the foes closing in on them. When they were almost to the escape, they rounded a corner leaving them face to face with two waiting lances of Covenant. They eliminated one of the two groups with no problem except for the leader, leaving two Sangheili minors and a few Unggoy. As one closed in on the ODST that had previously insulted him, Nico tried to shout a warning as he fired but the smaller man was thrown aside and shot. With a few quick pulls of the trigger the SPARTAN was able to kill the Elite and immediately ran over to the injured man. One of his arms seemed broken and his leg burned from the plasma. Quickly trying to help, he stopped when he heard a scream. The other marine was dodging swings from the other Sangheili and carelessly trying to shoot it.

Getting up, Nico fired off a few shots to kill the last Grunt as he hurried up to fight the remaining alien. He quickly kicked it to the ground, allowing the ODST to run away as he unsheathed his kukri. The beast was able to pull him down leaving them rolling as they fought. With a sudden strike of his blade the SPARTAN tore into his opponents back to get him off. He then quickly slammed his fist into it's head multiple times as he started standing up and took out his pistol. Relentlessly he began unloading the clip into it's screaming form, making sure it was dead.

As he turned around the soldier heard more footsteps and hurriedly ran over to the two ODSTs. He got one onto his feet as he swung the injured one over his back. Eventually they were able to get to the pelican and escape, but what made it all worth it to Nico was the compliments he received from both marines, including the one who had previously believed him to be some sort of monster.

After that, he began to ALWAYS honor any fallen comrade despite the circumstances and continued doing so until the current day as he gears up for Raptor team and his first encounter with the Forerunners.

[Spartan 999]

Be sure to add whether or not he fought on Requiem when Infinity first arrived when you do the Bio. Apart from that, he should be good to go.

[Deleted]

Profile edited to include the info on Infinity and the battle of requiem, as well as changing my C12 damage pack to two C12 canisters for more maneuverability with the explosives.

I'll probably extend my bio some later on too.

[Joker]

Name: Gram B-237
Rank: Senior Chief Petty Officer
Team: Nova Team
Age: 24
Gender: Male
SPARTAN Generation: SPARTAN III
Height: 6’9”
Weight: 250 lbs

Appearance: Gram is of average height for a SPARTAN III, not being the tallest, yet not the shortest either. His skin is pale white skin from spending so much time in his armor, and he has short auburn-red hair.


Personality: Gram is somewhat reserved in when he is in a group of people he does not know, or around a lot of rank, but when he is with his team he is known to be one of the loudest among them. Gram is at his best when his team is at his side and absolutely hates operating on solo missions, although he performs adequately when doing so.

Skills: Gram is a good all-around fighter. He is good at all engagement ranges, not really excelling at any particular area, but not uncomfortable in any area either. However, he does specialize in the area of demolitions, loving and obsessing over all forms of explosives.

Specialty: Explosives

Equipment:
BR85HB SR Battle Rifle
M6D
4 M9 Fragmentation Grenades
2 C-12 Charges
1 M168 Demolition Charge
Combat Knife
Jetpack

Bio Summary: Gram was a part of the Spartan III program that was designated Beta Company. During his time there, he excelled at squad tactics and working as a team. Gram was plucked from Beta Company just before Operation: Torpedo and deployed with a group of Spartan IIs and IIIs that had been thrown together. Throughout the rest of the war, he fought with these Spartans, but by the end of the battle of Earth, all but Gram had been killed. Again, he was left alone without a team.

Since the war’s ending, Gram has been reassigned to the Spartan VI Program and has been assigned to Nova Team where he was first deployed against the Prometheans when the Infinity first arrived there.

[Spartan 999]

@prez: Approved.

Joker: Approved.

[Spartan 999]

Lomnop, I'm going to have to preemptively deny your Spartan. To make one, you need to have a character approved for the Main Missions. Also, you need to have an armor permutation that is actually canon.

[Spartan 999]

I am double posting because Kill's busy and wanted a favor. So, here's your Spartan, Kill.


Name: Will Kepler
Rank: Lieutenant, Junior Grade
Team: Fireteam Reaper.
Age: 25
Gender: Male
SPARTAN Generation: SPARTAN-IV
Height: 7'6
Weight: 350 LBS
Appearance:


Personality: Clam, collected and humorous. He liked to make smart-ass remarks when spoken to. This is an attempt to raise moral. Socially adept. Will is always smiling, especially when he is shooting at enemies. Can't resist them ladies, but they can resist him quite well, sometimes. He also has a massive platonic crush on Commander Palmer, and essentially emulates everything about her, from her physical appearance to her personality and voice.

Skills: Skilled in various fire-arms, CQC, hand to hand and communication skills. Will is noted as being one of the more vocal SPARTAN's, thanks to his communication skills. He listens and talks very well. If an allied unit is close by, Will will most likely be talking to him, and WILL be talking to her, if it is a her.
Specialty: Marksmen
Equipment:
- SRS99S5AM Sniper Rifle
- BR-85 Heavy Barrel
- 2 M9 HE FRAG Grenades
- 1 Red Smoke Grenade

Bio Summery:
Will Kepler was a young enlisted marine when he learned about the SPARTAN-IV program. He made the cut as a young promising individual and decided to volunteer to be a SPARTAN after hearing a lot of good stories about how elite the unit actually was.

Kepler was trained through the war-games and managed to accelerate physically after the chemical augmentations the UNSC gave him after volunteering for the S-IV program. By now the UNSC had created a special branch just for them, known as the Spartan branch, completely annihilating all and any secret the UNSC kept from the public as the branch was publicly known to all UNSC Forces.

Kepler quickly became friends with most of the UNSCS Infinity crew, the vast majority males because he didn't have a way with the girls, as Commander Sara Palmer told him specifically to knock it off and Will respected rank, so he avoided talking to females out of professional respect.

Kepler participated in combat operations across Requiem when the Infinity found the UNSCS Forward Unto Dawn's emergency beacon. Kepler was commonly held back from marine deployments for obvious reasons but participated with Gypsie Company to disable the gravity generators.

Name: Anna-B224
Rank: E-6/ Petty Officer First Class
Team: Fireteam REAPER

Age: 26
Gender: Female

SPARTAN Generation: SPARTAN-III

Height: 6’8”
Weight: 245 lbs (unarmored)
Appearance: Once upon a time Anna was rarely seen without her Armor, but with the end of the Human-Covenant war and a new era, Anna has slowly begun to break from her shell and explore who she is. Hailing from Irish and Latin descent, Anna was fortunate (or unfortunate) to retain her femininity after surviving her augmentations. Her naturally caramel skin has paled from years of living inside her power armor, but still retains its color. A gift of her augmentation was that her myrtle green eyes became more vibrant and her auburn hair took on a lustrous sheen. Her hair, she keeps shorter than most female SPARTANs preferring to style it in a bob for simplicity’s sake. She has a heart-shaped face, with large almond eyes and full lips as well as a slightly upturned button nose. Her eyes are normally fixed in a playful scowl or heavily-lidded portraying the expression of boredom. Her scars criss-cross her torso and upper arms, while a shallow and jagged scar diagonally shoots up the right side of her neck. She wears a suit of GEN2 MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor comprising mostly of the SCOUT-variant with the RECON-variant helm, the suit is colored steel and trimmed in a rusty orange.

Personality: Once upon a time Anna was a cold, taciturn SPARTAN who lived and breathed for the mission and her comrades. She went above and beyond the call of duty to see the completion of a mission and the safety of her teammates. This put her life in jeopardy more times that she can remember and caused her to spend significant time in medical wards for recovery. However, as the years passed and she was sent on more and more High Value Target missions – missions where the success rate was slim and the return rate from said missions was so marginal one would have had to be a professional gambler to bet on the odds, her opinion in these missions and her command began to sour. She kept her thoughts a secret, sharing them only with those she was closest with on her team. This led her to begin experiencing “personality abnormalities” atypical in SPARTANs prior to Generation-IV. She became more sociable, going out of her way to interact with others. She also became a bit of a smart-ass and developed a quite crass potty-mouth. Her internal and ultimate goal was her hope that should she die while on one of these suicide missions she would be remembered by others. With the war’s end she began experimenting with vices and took to smoking cigarettes in secret as well as drinking and found the affects it had on her to be exhilarating. She also discovered sex, but there’s no need to go into that. She is definitely a sociopath with narcissistic tendencies.

On the battlefield she is consumed with a warrior’s spirit and a hunter’s patience. She can and will stalk her prey indefinitely and choose the perfect moment to strike, one that favors her and her team. Her tenacity is legendary (or at least she likes to think so) as is her crass humor and language on the battlefield. She’s taken to trash-talking her opponents whether they can hear her or not and has been known to call out and tally her kills, making it into a competition amongst her teammates.

Skills: Generally speaking, Anna is an all-around warrior who doesn’t quite excel in any one martial area. Be it at range or up close she can hold her own with the best of them, although she does take pride and considerable joy out of up-close-and-personal kills. However, by no means is she as skillful as Emile-A229 was at CQC or as swift as Kelly. She is quick on her feet (tactically and mentally) and tenacious beyond reason.
Specialty: Assault/Scout

Equipment: M6Js Carbine (suppressed variant) w/attached collapsible shoulder stock
- M392s DMR (suppressed variant)
- 2 Frag Grenades
- 2 Flashbang Grenades
- Kukri (magnetically attached to the small of her back)
- Hologram

Bio Summary: Once upon a time in another life, long ago, Anna-B224 was once known as Annabelle Delgado, born to UNSC munitions worker and a floral shop curator. As a young child she showed a surprisingly high level of athletic ability along with an unyielding spirit and tomboyish streak. Through means that escape her she was abducted and indoctrinated into the SPARTAN-III program as part of the next generation of IIIs that would one day become Beta Company. Throughout her training from the age of five on up she suffered and endured hellish extremes for no other reason than because she knew of nothing else and her refusal to give up. When the time came for her to undergo the augmentation treatment she faced it admirably, almost scoffing at the potential horror she might face. Once she realized she survived the training, she and the rest of her team (who’d she’d bonded with) were given orders and carried off her home planet of Onyx, thus allowing her to escape the destruction that took place there.

Throughout the war effort, she and members from her fireteam took part in suicide mission after suicide mission taking on overwhelming odds and superior numbers to complete seemingly impossible objectives. During the course of the war she began to lose friends and teammates, experiences that scarred her more than she was willing to admit. This caused her to cope in her own unique way, developing “personality abnormalities” not normally attributed to her fellow SPARTANs. Through luck or the grace of some higher power she survived the Human-Covenant conflict and was rolled into the newly formed SPARTAN branch of the UNSC post-war where her ‘abnormalities’ grew more noticeable, but never detracted from her combat performance or lethality. Now she serves under Commander Palmer of the UNSC Infinity, the SPARTAN Commander in charge of all fireteams aboard the flagship vessel. She was there for the first tour on Requiem and has been looking forward to returning.

Revised My character.

@arby: Approved.

@mercury: I like your Spartan a lot, but there's one major thing: you don't have a main mission character approved yet. So, I will have to deny it on that basis alone. Sorry.

Name:Will "Skull" Lander
Rank:Petty officer
Team:Reaper
Age:28
Gender:Male
SPARTAN Generation:IV
Height:7'1
Weight:318 pounds
Appearance:
He has green armor, and his visor is light blue. His insignia is a snake. He has some blue on his chest. His hair is straight black, and he has pale, white skin. He has a small scar on his right cheek from a bullet whisking past his cheek.

Personality:He is a happy and nice person. He likes to make jokes while off of the battlefield and likes to talk to people. He is envious of Spartan II's because of all the rumours he hears about how "perfect" they are.

Skills:He has skilled in hand-to-hand combat, so he can fight back if he gets to close to his enemy. He is skilled in sniping, and hits most of his shots. He is also skilled in stealth, because snipers need stealth.
Specialty:Sniper, stealth.
Equipment:
M392 DMR
SRS99 AM Sniper rifle.
Active-Camo.
Two knives.(One on his shoulder, one near his knee.)

Bio Summery:Will joined the military at age 24. He started as a private, and didn't know much about it. He started to learn more, and know how to shoot a weapon. He started to move up the ranks. He ranked up, because he saved his leader from an Elite with an energy sword. He then got taught more on the Covenant, and how to kill each one of them.

When the Spartan IV program came out in public, he was fascinated about the armor. When he got ranked up to Petty Officer, he got the choice to join the program. He accepted, and was put through some tests that were difficult, but he passed. He then moved on to training, and although it was brutal, he passed in that also. After that, he got ranked up to Petty officer. He then got his armor, and a small fraction of chemicals compared to Spartan II's. He fought on Infinity's first tour to Requiem, and that was his first major battle/ mission. When that was over, he got put in Reaper, and was nicknamed Skull, because that's what he always shot at.

You need to resize your pictures. This is the third or fourth time you've posted a massive image. Next time you get a warning.

Fixed

[Spartan 999]

Alright, I'm going to tell you to make Will a SPARTAN-IV, since apparently you don't understand anything about confidentiality, let alone how the S-III program works, and the Bio is more tuned towards making a S-IV. Also, put in an actual description along with the picture; not just of the armor, but of his actual appearance.

Got it.
