In-character name: Alyson Insi

General Character Info: Alyson comes from Gao, recruited as an Agent to help with the sovereignty of the Republic, and has been sent on several missions with other operatives, the most recent one being Geminus to help with rebelling against the UEG. Before then they were a hunter for an exotic meats shop owner, hunting Gao wildlife such as Idjoms, and rarely Glowfish. Alyson's job as a hunter got shut down as the owner of the exotic meats shop died of old age. They were unable to find any other job, so applied for a job in the Gao Armed Forces, after three years of enlistment they were approached with the option of joining the Gao Infiltration Forces, which she gladly accepted. 

Reason for joining: I've been kicked out of the Covenant for inactivity a couple of months ago, and I've recently gotten back into playing Halo 13. So I'm going to try applying for the URF, I haven't been the best roleplayer, but I've gotten better.

Ckey: Gunlean

Discord name: garlic#7718

In-character name: Multiple characters, namely a Unggoy named Synopra and I seek to have a brute named Zorreeus

general character info: Synopra is a loopy and loud enthusiast of the Convenant religion, who enjoys exterminating heretics to his religion. Zorreeus is an incredibly goofy and dimwitted individual, only shining within battle. He's quite unprofessional and can be a lot to handle since he may not know what he's doing.

Reason for joining: Covenant is usually a lot more interesting the USCM since you have more vast races at your disposal and aren't confined to being only a human which is a nice touch to me and provides a wider range of much needed roleplay variety.

Roleplay Example/History: I have RPed for 4 years on multiple platforms and I think I am pretty good at it because the people I RP'd with were very very good so I had to keep up with them in terms of skill for 4 long, hard years.

More depth with factions details IE: The covenant are a group of aliens forming a military coalition serving under the High Council who seek to exterminate humanity as they see it as a front on their religion and gods. They seek to use forerunner technology called Halo rings to accomplish this goal.

Name of the Spartan you want to play (Name-000. Try and avoid commonly known numbers like -117.): Max-023


Explain what you would do in the following scenarios and why:


Scenario 1:

You’re on the ONI Aegis and the ONI RD requests a Sierra team to deploy to VT9, as the covenant have been spotted and are attacking. They have not breached the gate and it is unclear as to the size of their forces. What do you do?

I would first ask about the size of the Covenant force as well as the status of the artifact. Due to the rules requiring a valid mission that is more complex than killing random forces, I would validate that a real attack was being conducted.

Scenario 2:

You’re on the ONI Aegis and receive an urgent request from a Platoon Leader to deploy onto the UNSC Warship as the Insurrectionists have deployed a sizeable force and are taking control of the ship, and arming the nuclear device as they request assistance. What do you do?

I would relay the information to the CO or RD and clarify if deployment is authorized and proceed accordingly to their response. Sergeants are not of command authority to make the order, but the situation in question would validate at least some consideration.

Scenario 3:

You’ve been deployed on a mission to give the covenant back their bomb. You manage to arm the bomb, but your fellow spartan has been cut down and his body is being dragged away by the Covenant towards an escape pod. What do you do?

This is straight forward. Protocol dictates the abandonment of current tasks to either retrieve the Spartan or, if the situation is bad enough, their gear. The bomb is secondary.

Name of the Spartan you want to play (Name-000. Try and avoid commonly known numbers like -117.):
Edward-042



Explain what you would do in the following scenarios and why:


Scenario 1:
You’re on the ONI Aegis and the ONI RD requests a Sierra team to deploy to VT9, as the covenant have been spotted and are attacking. They have not breached the gate and it is unclear as to the size of their forces. What do you do?
If I am alone, I cannot deploy and remain on the Aegis.
When two or more Spartan-II assets are available however, I would first inform the ONI Research Director that more information as to the disposition of enemy forces is required before deploying. His request does not include a clear goal for deployment, the request also suggests that no real engagement has occured yet. S-II assets are a means of last resort, not the first line of defence.


Scenario 2:
You’re on the ONI Aegis and receive an urgent request from a Platoon Leader to deploy onto the UNSC Warship as the Insurrectionists have deployed a sizeable force and are taking control of the ship, and arming the nuclear device as they request assistance. What do you do?
If I am alone, I cannot deploy and remain on the Aegis.
When two or more S-II assets are available, the response would be to verify if the Platoon Leader is the acting UNSC CO (as in, no one up in the chain of command remains.) If this is the case, S-II assets will deploy with the clear goal of preventing full loss of a UNSC Naval asset. The fact that the crew and its marine complement are in the process of losing the vessel is clear enough evidence that conventional forces are already severely depleted. S-II's may deploy with the goal of securing the vessel and reinstating the crew and its marines in full control of the vessel.


Scenario 3:
You’ve been deployed on a mission to give the covenant back their bomb. You manage to arm the bomb, but your fellow spartan has been cut down and his body is being dragged away by the Covenant towards an escape pod. What do you do?
I Immediately give chase and engage the Covenant forces that are taking the S-II away. If the enemy is present in overwhelming force and retrieval of the body becomes impossible, the first option would be to use explosives at range in order to destroy the body.
If this is also impossible, there is no other option than to close to point blank range and destroy myself along with the S-II and our equipment.

A third alternative is to keep the Covenant pinned down, preventing them from boarding the escape pod untill the AM bomb goes off. This will depend on everyone's relative positions, aswell as the position of the AM bomb (in order to ensure it is not disarmed.)

Losing 2 S-II's and their equipment is still preferable compared to losing 1 S-II and giving the Covenant a working example of S-II related armor technology.

Details of complaint: At 1:10 something I launched a bunch of boarding beacons and then the UNSC leader told me to stop launching boarding beacons after I had already stopped, and so I launched a boarding pod and got killed by the covvies as you do and then Allakai bwoinked me and said that I had insubordinated even though I didn't and that if I did this again I would get a jobban, and then I looked through all the rules pages and there isn't even anything about standard marines insubordinating so even if I did insubordinate I dont get why it would result in a bwoink or warning at all.

Wait for the initial waves of UNSC to deal with it, if they prove incapable and the base starts falling apart due to the might of the assault, deploy once the high threat has been confirmed by the intel gathered..

Scenario 2:

You’re on the ONI Aegis and receive an urgent request from a Platoon Leader to deploy onto the UNSC Warship as the Insurrectionists have deployed a sizeable force and are taking control of the ship, and arming the nuclear device as they request assistance. What do you do?

Put the value of the mission on the balance against other missions, if the threat is so big that it risks the integrity of the Aegis, stay on the safe side and protect the prowler along with the rest of your men.

Scenario 3:

You’ve been deployed on a mission to give the covenant back their bomb. You manage to arm the bomb, but your fellow spartan has been cut down and his body is being dragged away by the Covenant towards an escape pod. What do you do?

Move away from the primary mission to retrieve the spartan body and put it away of enemy hands, then return to the original task once the body has been secured through detonation or safe storage.

'You’re on the ONI Aegis and the ONI RD requests a Sierra team to deploy to VT9, as the covenant have been spotted and are attacking. They have not breached the gate and it is unclear as to the size of their forces. What do you do?'

The gate is closed and the Covenant have been spotted meaning that there is a security element already present. We also cannot deploy at the first sighting of covenant forces unless the current friendly forces were depleted. We do not deploy.

Scenario 2:

You’re on the ONI Aegis and receive an urgent request from a Platoon Leader to deploy onto the UNSC Warship as the Insurrectionists have deployed a sizeable force and are taking control of the ship, and arming the nuclear device as they request assistance. What do you do?

I would first contact HIGHCOM to verify the situation, and ask for guidance, otherwise I would not deploy as the reporting individual is a Marine Squad leader.

Scenario 3:

You’ve been deployed on a mission to give the covenant back their bomb. You manage to arm the bomb, but your fellow spartan has been cut down and his body is being dragged away by the Covenant towards an escape pod. What do you do?

Asset denial immediately. They are not able to drag a SPARTAN away faster than bullets, and even then they wouldn't be able to get into the pod in time. IF they are RNG enough to get in the pod the pods launch sequence takes longer than it does for me to enter it aswell. with that, the Covie made part of my job easier by getting my buddy into a pod and giving us the fastest escape.

Name of the Spartan you want to play (Name-000. Try and avoid commonly known numbers like -117.):
Dave-970


Explain what you would do in the following scenarios and why:





Scenario 1:

You’re on the ONI Aegis and the ONI RD requests a Sierra team to deploy to VT9, as the covenant have been spotted and are attacking. They have not breached the gate and it is unclear as to the size of their forces. What do you do?

---------------------

There are several things wrong with this scenario that I’ll pick apart: As a first note, there is no clear, attainable goal for the Spartans — being told to deploy is attainable, not an objective, if they were told to deploy, and secure Orion intelligence, that would be a valid, attainable goal.

Secondly, the scenario makes it sound like as if ONI/UNSC did not attempt to deploy UNSC or ODST forces, or even use their own ONI security personnel. Because of this, the Spartans would not be able to deploy, as no one else had attempted to fight against the covenant force.

Lastly, they have not even verified if the Covenant forces are significant, and worth the time of a Spartan team. For all they know, it could be a couple grunts, or even just a lone kig yar — clearly not worth the time of the Spartans.


Scenario 2:

You’re on the ONI Aegis and receive an urgent request from a Platoon Leader to deploy onto the UNSC Warship as the Insurrectionists have deployed a sizeable force and are taking control of the ship, and arming the nuclear device as they request assistance. What do you do?

---------------------

There's a couple things to mention about this scenario. Assuming that the ACO, being the PL, didn’t give an actual direct, attainable goal — but for the purposes, I’ll assume the objective would be to “push the insurrectionists off, and disarm the nuke.”

If the Insurrectionists are deploying full force to the UNSC warship, and are currently setting off a nuke, it’s safe to assume that the marines and ODST complement have already been utilized, and have failed in their objective — as the Innies are taking control, and setting off a nuke. UNSC failing in their objective isn’t enough to deploy Spartans, however, that brings me into my next point:

Potentially losing a UNSC Warship is a very heavy blow, and it’s very significant for the UNSC to prevent this. Given this, I believe it would be justified to deploy Spartans on the UNSC warship, as the situation implies that the Marines/ODST are unable to fend off the threat, and have been depleted. Preventing a very, very, very expensive ship from blown up by armed rebels is a high important goal, assuming no Priorities are being conflicted with.



Scenario 3:

You’ve been deployed on a mission to give the covenant back their bomb. You manage to arm the bomb, but your fellow spartan has been cut down and his body is being dragged away by the Covenant towards an escape pod. What do you do?

---------------------

Ensuring that the body, and it’s technology, is not taken is the number one priority objective, as the retrieval of gear is only trumped by protecting the Aegis. With such, I’d do anything in my power to retrieve the gear. If, after retrieving the body, I had to choose between exfiltrating with the gear and body, and preventing the Covenant from disarming the bomb — the priority is getting that gear gets back in safe hands, on the Aegis.

Assuming at that point, I’d be the only Spartan left, I would be relegated to playing watch dog on the Aegis, and unless ordered by High Command, I’d be forced to leave the Covenant alone, as I wouldn’t have a partner at that time.

Name of the Spartan you want to play (Name-000. Try and avoid commonly known numbers like -117.):

Odin - 025


Explain what you would do in the following scenarios and why:


Scenario 1:

You’re on the ONI Aegis and the ONI RD requests a Sierra team to deploy to VT9, as the covenant have been spotted and are attacking. They have not breached the gate and it is unclear as to the size of their forces. What do you do?

Scenario 1 Answer: Depends on the type of mission given, If it is just to deploy to take out covenant forces there with out any evidence of high ranked covenant on the field and its just scouts. Then Deployment from the ONI RD shouldn't be nessicary or of the utmost importance till UNSC arrive on the scene and fail to fend them off. Then it'd be best to deploy if there is a sizable amount of spartans avalible to do so


Scenario 2:

You’re on the ONI Aegis and receive an urgent request from a Platoon Leader to deploy onto the UNSC Warship as the Insurrectionists have deployed a sizeable force and are taking control of the ship, and arming the nuclear device as they request assistance. What do you do?

Scenario 2 Answer: Seeing that the request has come from an E-7 Platoon Leader and not a Person such as the Commanding Officer or UNSC HC unless the Platoon lead is acting aCO at the time, then the chance of deployment could increase but It would be best to leave dealing with that to the ODST Troopers. If no ODST can come to aid, then it'd be best in my eyes to fax UNSC HC first and await a reply before deciding to bother or not if the Platoon lead is not acting command officer.

Scenario 3:

You’ve been deployed on a mission to give the covenant back their bomb. You manage to arm the bomb, but your fellow spartan has been cut down and his body is being dragged away by the Covenant towards an escape pod. What do you do?

Scenario 3 Answer: Due to this Scenario interfering abit with Priority 2, It'd be best to focus on preventing the said Covenant Soldier from getting away with the Spartan Body / Gear as the Anit-Matter bomb as been armed and it should be fine for a minute while you deal with the Inconvenience. Though if the Body cannot be Obtained, Focus on the Anti-Matter bomb till it is near detonation because no covenant soldier would abandoned ship unless the emergency was real urgent like 20 seconds on the AM remaining. Though be sure to atleast try and prevent the Covvie from getting away by putting a few bullets in the hostile and injuring them.
