CHARACTER NAME: Noble Six
SERIES: Halo -Noble Six, Spartan-III Program, Beta Company
CANON POINT: Lone Wolf (The post campaign ending level of Reach. I'm taking her from the earlier portion of it before her armor's completely wrecked and she's out of ammo. She's going to be injured with armor damage, but she'll still have the helmet)
AGE: Canonly, this like a lot of data on Noble Six is Redacted. I'd estimate it as extremely early twenties at most from the age of the other member of Beta company in the group.
APPEARANCE: (Note: Canonly, the character has no set gender, I use the female permutation in this case.) The character has no true set appearance, so I'm using Daniela Ruah as a PB(Hair length isn't perfect, but general features are there.) In armor, I'm using this.
PREVIOUS GAME HISTORY: N/A
PERSONALITY:
Noble Six, also known as SPARTAN-B312, is a highly independent person, known for a record of lone wolf tendencies and efficiency on the battlefield. However, there's a lot more to the person beneath that, as can be seen throughout the Reach campaign. That kind of record really would look like a poor fit for a team like Noble, but she's surprisingly social and caring among allies. There was actually emphasis in her group's training to work together and not lose cohesiveness. Being pulled out immediately after graduating from training and thrown into solo missions wouldn't change the core of what she was trained to be.
Above all else, Noble Six is a Spartan. Specifically, a Spartan-III from Beta company: one of a number of orphans from planets destroyed by the Covenant, given a chance to strike back at the ones that killed her family. She was considered too valuable by her superiors to throw away in a large-scale suicide mission like the earlier group. She was one of a few to escape that fate, but in the end, it just delayed the inevitable, as she ended up in the same scenario attempting to defend Reach.
Before Reach, Six was used as an assassin by her superior, earning her reputation for being a lone wolf and a "hyper-lethal vector". Entire militia groups were wiped out at her hands. She was only assigned to Noble as a replacement with great reluctance, as her superior was reluctant to give up his private grim reaper.
On joining Noble, it was made immediately clear by Carter, Noble Leader, that the majority of the group didn't exactly want a replacement, and that she might have some issues, but time and working together ends up changing that. Six actually worked her way into the group, becoming one of them in no time. In fact, Six seems to get along quite well with the others in Noble in the missions they end being assigned to throughout the Reach Campaign. It especially appears that she was fairly close to Noble Five, to the point where she started to protest his plan to sacrifice himself to destroy the Covenant Corvette with manual detonation of the Slipspace bomb. Jorge ended up giving her his dog tags and literally throwing her out of the ship to make sure that she survived to go back to Noble. And that was just the first death of a team member she saw on this mission. She truly regretted the loss.
It took some time for Six to be reunited with Noble, and she assisted in the evacuation of New Alexandria on her way back. In spite of everything that might be expected, she worked well with the normal soldiers to try to rescue civilians. It wasn't always successful, but Six wouldn't stop trying in spite of the Covenant. It's her duty to protect humanity.
Noble Six was truly attached to her team by this point. Not long after being the remaining team being reunited, Kat was killed by a Covenant sniper with Six being the one to catch her body and haul it to the bunker they were running to at the time, where the group spent several days with Kat's body. Even though there was no saving her, Six still insisted on pulling the body into the shelter. Even after the short time they’d been a team, she’d developed strong ties.
From there, they were called for a torch and burn operation that was nothing more than an excuse to return Noble to pick up what supposed to be the best hope for humanity. An AI named Cortana that had chosen Six to be her courier. That AI contained the most powerful weapon the human race had against the threat. Information.
In transit to the shipyards to get the AI to safety, there was another loss. Noble One sacrificed himself to take out an obstacle between them and the shipyards they needed to get the AI to. Another painful loss, one that she wasn’t going to forget, or let be in vain. He told her the AI had chosen right. She was going to live up to that--which she and Emile managed, getting the AI to the Pillar of Autumn, though Emile went down to a group of Zealots manning the gun to help clear the area for the AI to be picked up. Seeing that, Six couldn’t have taken the chance for failure.
In the end, Six makes a choice that truly shows her courage and her loyalties. All the others from the team are gone. She made the choice to sacrifice herself to make sure all the sacrifices weren't in vain. Humanity's best hope needed to get off the planet. If her life was the price to get it to safety? It was a price she'd happily pay, as all but one of her team had already done.
ABILITIES:
The Spartan-IIIs each went through a set of bio-augmentations with various effects. The end results of these various treatments is nearly unbreakable bones, increased muscle density and strength, improved vision, and highly increased reflexes. They've also gone through a high level of training to make them the best soldiers possible.
POSSESSIONS:
- 1 set of MJOLNIR armor.
- 1 M6G Magnum
- 1M392 DMA - Designated Marksman rifle
- 2 sets of dog tags, hers and Jorge's.

JOURNAL ENTRY SAMPLE:
[It had been an odd transition, but Six was starting to adapt to the strange surroundings. She's not on Reach anymore, as far as she can tell. And so far, she hasn't found anyone from the UNSC. But there's been enough time for her to settle down and get a feel for the surroundings. It seemed to easy to end up her after the near certain death she was facing on Reach. Even she knew it wasn't likely to pull a miracle from that.
Six had toyed with the compass device for a little while before deciding to use it for communications, as that appeared to be its purpose. It wasn't too complicated to turn the video on, showing a somewhat battered set of armor.]
This is Noble Six reporting, seeking any UNSC presence on this vessel, as well as any useful information that I could find about this place. I don't want to go into this further than I already have blind.
Not that it appears that there is any choice but to wait this out. So far, I have yet to find a way back to Reach.[Leaving out the detail that there'd be no point in returning even if there was a way back. That kind of data was need to know in her eyes.] Nor have I been about to find out how exactly I arrived in this place from that planet.
THIRD-PERSON SAMPLE:
(Note, I know what canon point I am using, this is a third person writing introspection piece I did in the past as a sample)
It was over. The Pillar of Autumn was safely away. She'd done her part to make sure of that. To make sure that their lives hadn't been sacrificed in vain. Jorge. Kat. Carter. And Emile.... She'd made sure that the package had made it off, in spite of the damn Zealots that took him out when he was manning the gun. They'd offered to take her with, but there was no way the Pillar would have made it without covering fire. She couldn't risk the chance of failure that going would have. Six had chosen to man the gun.
Besides, Six was a Spartan. As Jorge had said, they all make this trip one day. Knowing that her staying would mean the difference between humanity's best hope escaping or not...there really hadn't been a choice.
And now, Six was alone. Alone, except for the many Covenant soldiers that swarmed the area. But she was a Spartan, and damn it if she wasn't going to take as many of the bastards as she could take with her in the end. She would go down fighting. It was what most of he team had done, so how could she have done any less. Kat didn't even get the chance to go down fighting, thanks to that damn sniper.
Six carefully aimed and fired, trying to make every shot count. She couldn't afford to waste ammunition. Couldn't afford to waste anything. Not if she wanted to keep going to keep taking down more of them. Another Grunt, a Skirmisher, and an Elite. And they just kept coming. But that was good. Bring it on. She wanted more. She didn't even notice the first cracks forming in her visor until it got to the point where it was more of a hindrance than a help.
Six pulled it off, leaving it on the ground. She wouldn't need it again. She picked up her gun again, but then they came. The Elites. Injured and tired... She kept fighting. Kept ignoring each new wound, intent on taking another one with her if she could. But there it was. She'd fallen. There was nothing she could have done but struggle as she watched the energy dagger fall.
