(Warning: should be joined by people who know Halo (books and game) pretty well!)

7 weeks after most of the last major UNSC base, Reach, has been glassed...

You are a soldier, fighting on the occupied planet Reach. Most of the planet has either been glassed or occupied by Covenant soldiers. You must use all your wits to survive. Surprisingly, the Covenant have shown special interest in the old C.A.S.T.L.E base, the place where the Spartan IIs were created and trained. You must find out what the Covenant is wanting with the old base, put a stop to it, and find a way to escape Reach.

Template:

Type of soldier: (Spartan I, II, or III, marine, ODST.)

Name and number:

Armor: (Spartans only, and Spartan III's have EVA armor)

Rank: (Marines and ODST's only)

Weapon: (No power weapons, including: rocket launcher, flamethrower, fuel rod gun, Spartan Laser.)

Background and personality:

Appearence:



My character:

Type: Spartan I

Name and number: Hobbs, 077.

Armor: Mark IV

Weapon: Battle rifle.

Background and personality: Hobbs was a normal marine, fighting Insurrectionists in the outer colonies before being selected for the Spartan I program. The augumentation left him scarred emotionaly, so he doesn't talk a lot. Her can crack a wisecrack every once in a while, but he is mostly the strong, silent type. He was sent to fight the Covenant, and had his old armor upgraded to Mark IV armor. He was on Reach when the Covenant attacked, and has been fighting them ever since.

Appearance: Dark brown hair, boxy head, tanned skin.


Standard RPG rules, no godmodding, and absolutely NO CHARACTERS THAT ALREADY EXIST! YOU WILL BE FORCED TO CHANGE! This only counts for people in the books and game, excluding The Cole Protocol..

Type of soldier: ODST

Name and number: Tim 097

Rank: What's the highest for an ODST?

Weapon: SSMG

Background and personality: The leader of his group of ODST's, he brought them down to the planet when reinforcements were needed. He would never ask his men to do anything he wouldn't do. Once when they were short on pods, he landed while atop another odst's pod.

Appearence: Barely tanned skin, brownish hair, normally with a face that says "Get in my way, and you are gonna die!"

Type of soldier: Spartan III, Delta Company (obviously...)

Name and number: Jacob Sven, 315

Armor: EVA

Rank: N/A

Weapon: Sniper Rifle

Background and personality: Jacob was the oldest Spartan III in Delta, and also the last to be recruited. He was a sniper specialist, and often compared to Linda from the Spartan II's, though his skills paled in true comparison. His stealth is another strong point, and his personality reflects this; he is quiet, and when he talks, he skips around, avoided his point until he needs to hammer it in.

Appearence: Black hair, brown eyes, and light build, hidden behind his EVA armor.
 
Type of soldier: ODST; former Marine

Name/Number: Dante Cruz, 666

Rank: Private; former Captain

Background: Back home, Dante was just a run of the mill Captain of the Marine Corp. who was drafted to the ODST brigades. This scared her, as she have never been to space, but brushing that aside, when she got there, she lost her stripes and was demoted to Private, which pissed her off. Now, she has to work in a new enviroment to regain her Captain position

Personality: Dante is a tomboy, however she is quite shy when it comes to love live, which contridicts her everyday personality. She hates those who kills solely because they wants to. She has no experience with handling extraterrestial beings, so she may come off as rude to them solely because of inexperience. All she knows is her knowledge as a Marine to get herself by.

Weaponry: Standard machine gun; Energy sword

Appearance: Medium build, icy blue eyes, natural silver hair, porcelin skin that hasn't tan. Her armor has a red demonic skull painted on the chest.

Accepted, but an ARC sword I added for Zombie Island. It's not a real halo thing. The only sword is the energy sword. And for a machine gun, you can either choose an SMG, a silenced SMG, or possibly a battle rifle. Your choice.
 
So are we already on planet, on an orbital ship, or what at the start? I'm asking because I want to know if we're going to have to Helljump...
 
You can start up at any point anywhere, but you'll need to flash forward from the start of the invasion to 7 weeks later.
