The Human-Covenant War ended with a pyrrhic victory - though the Covenant was in shambles and allegiances were formed, the Human race had lost far more than it could have ever imagined. The war was closer to an apocalypse than anything else.
On March 3rd, 2553, the United Earth Government and the Covenant met and made peace, and the war over finally. Though the Covenant Civil War would continue to rage on, the war of the Covenant and Humanity was over at last. But that would not last even a year.
In 2554, a group of Covenant rogues attacked the moon X50, high above Draetheus V. The ensuing battles between the UNSC defences on the planet and the Covenant were bloody, with no side gaining upper-hand until SPARTAN-IV Sarah Palmer and a small squad of men managed to reach a helipad and alert the UNSC battlefleet of just what exactly was going on.
With dropships inbound and battle blazing, it wont be long now before a whole new firestorm of warfare dawns.

Name: Soren 'Roc' Taylor Age: 37 years Race: Caucasian, Human, Male Rank: Lieutenant
Military Data:
Motto N/A
Armament: M6H Personal Defense Weapon System M7/Caseless Submachine Gun
Role: Employed and trained as a pilot for the UNSC, Soren has spent many years of his life training and trying to hone his skills for long distance travel and dog-fights. Soren is often times used in ground scenarions as a backup method of fire, sending hails of missiles and heavy machine gun fire into the enemies aircraft while he himself was guarded. He rarely spends much time concentrating on infantry, and this has more than once put him in a life or death situation. Though not as refined as he'd prefer, Soren has undergone spacial piloting procedures, and has faced combat in zero-g environments. Notably in these scenarios, Soren prefers to make use of the F-41 Exoatmospheric Multirole Strike Fighter, more often known as the F-41 Broadsword. When put at the helm of one of these fighters it's not uncommon for Soren to become far too immersed in the action, ignoring combat tactics for blood pumping thrill, though he never fails to fulfil the importance of his actions.
Skills: Soren isn't a standout pilot. He isn't the most skilled, nor the most acute, but he is possibly the most motivated. He is a determined and rigorous pilot, and is normally seen as a bit of a banner for forces he fights alongside, rallying them together to push forward against their enemies. This in no way means he is any good with his vehicles; though he can hit an enemy easily, he isn't some sort of airborn sniper, he has met his fair amount of challenges, and is often times in need of backup to achieve a victory.

RANK: LIEUTENANT - SOREN TAYLOR | AGE: 29 | HEIGHT: 6'3" || BIRTHPLACE: TROY NOTES: BARELY PASSED PSYCH TEST. ACTIVE DURING GLASSING OF HAT YAI.
Born in 2520 to Simon and Caroline Taylor, Soren was a miracle child, having been born with low blood cell count, having survived thanks to dedicated medical work and sheer luck. From a young age, Soren was always an active and determined boy, breaking an arm when trying to impress one of his friends, Madeline, while climbing a large tree. At the age of around 12, Soren revealed his want to become a pilot of the UNSC, after witnessing a large array of ships flying over his home around New Years Day on Earth. In his adolescent years, Soren and Madeline grew very close, though neither were strong enough to admit their feelings for the other. Eventually, after spending roughly twelve years in education with each other, the two finally admitted their feelings. By 2537 however, they had to part ways when Soren fulfilled a person desire and enlisted in the UNSC in late January.
In the first four months of his training with the UNSC, Soren excelled at all tasks assigned to him. He and Madeline kept in contact constantly, and her constant connection to him helped through any of the hard times he experienced in the difficult training procedures. Despite his drive and will power, he still found it very hard to keep up with the difficult practices of a UNSC pilot. It didn't take long before he was exceeding well into the training. In May of his first year, everything changed when his home world was glassed.
The news of the Massacre of Troy almost brought Soren to ruin as his results in tests and activities plummeted, nearly failing all of them. Eventually he was confronted by one of the trainers, who said that the UNSC understands his loss, but that he and many other personell who had lost loved ones in the war to this point needed to push through to help best their enemies. Soren took this to heart and instantly hit the rebound, quickly returning to his previous marks in all tests he took part in, hoping now to fight against the same enemies that had slaughtered his loved ones. Soren was not considered a standout in his early tests, but by the time the simulations began he showed his true adaptability with the controls and systems of numerous aircraft, from the simple Pelican to the advanced Longsword. After many years of practice, he eventually finished his training, only able to pay for the overall training thanks to his parents Will, which revealed 1,000,000cr had been set aside for him in case of sudden death. By 2545, at the age of 25, Soren was promoted to Lieutenant, and given command of the D77-TC Pelican Gamma 074 afte he was officially stationed on board the UNSC Say My Name. His time with the Marathon-class Cruiser was filled with combat experience, and before long he formed close bonds with those on board the ship.
During the Battle of Earth, Soren helped transport large amounts of ammunition and cargo to UNSC bases, and after the glassing of Africa he helped relocate many needy and injured participants of the conflict. With the ending of the war, Soren has started to more actively seek combat opportunities, and is currently hoping for a chance to pilot a fighter.

RANK: PETTY OFFICER 2ND CLASS - NICHOLAS OLDZION | AGE: 29 | HEIGHT: 5'10" || BIRTHPLACE: EARTH NOTES: PASSED PSYCHOLOGICAL EVALUATION. ACTIVE DURING THE BATTLE OF EARTH.
Born in 2525 to [][][][][] and [][][][][], Nicholas was born March 1st, having been born 7 weeks early survived thanks to dedicated medical work and sheer luck. From a young age, Nicholas was always an active and sensitive boy, he was taunted and made fun of for his unusual intelligences. At the age of 12, His Grandmother died in the glassing of one of the colonies on Leonis Minoris. In his adolescent years, Nicholas had few friends, and seldom set out to make them. After spending roughly 20 years in education without finding a relationship that went beyond friendship, Nicholas conscripted into the Marines.
In the first four months of his training with the UNSC, Nicholas performed mediocrely at all tasks assigned to him. He was well liked in his squad, but they did not think he was fit for the Marines. However, he did best on the obstacle course, being the first one to the finish before his team. When the Drill Instructor yelled at him for not helping his squad, he began waiting at obstacles and helping his squad pass them. They went on their first mission shortly after they were finish with Basic and the standard bio-enhancements. In the heat of battle, Nicholas proved to be level-headed, and helped the Squad leader lead the squad to safety in hairy situations. This advice was taken for granted.
Soon he was taken from his Squad and placed in Logistics, where his tactical mind helped turn the tide of war. However, he made many mistakes that darkened his name in the UNSC.
Then the Covenant invaded Earth.
During the Battle of Earth, Nicholas helped organize the drop points for Ammunition and Supplies to troops.
Despite his shortfalls, he applied for the Spartan IV program and was accepted. Some members of his old squad were not and there was some jealousy, but Nicholas would leave them behind in the Spartan IV program. In a new environment, Nicholas flourished in his combat skills. It didn't take long before he was exceeding well into the training.

Name: Captain Mary Livingston Rank: Captain Age: 24 Gender: Female Appearance: http://static2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110202052408/halofanon/images/f/f5/Caelan,_Armoured.png Skills: Veteran, natural commander, good leadership skills Race: Human (English) Weapons: MA5D Assault rifle, M6D personal defence weapon, Combat knife, two frag grenades Location: Earth Current Status: Active Motto: Time to end this Theme Song: Reignite Malufenix
History: Captain Mary Livingston fought during the battle of Earth, losing half of the soldiers under her command in the process and ending up sitting the latter stages of war out, recovering from severe plasma burn wounds to her chest and right arms. Her unit had got ambushed by Covenant air power when they were in the process of withdrawing from a settlement after evacuating the local population. She returned to active service shortly after the end of the war, yet to Mary the ending of the war brought no peace. The UNSC was in ruins, it would be many hard years before the UNSC regained it's full strength and many more years until the marines had to stop fighting to protect the newer fragile UNSC. Mary has applied no more than three times for a place in the Spartan IV programme believing that now more than ever the UNSC will need it's Spartans to prevent anyone from dealing the final death blow to the UNSC. Each time she has been rejected though it is not certain as to why, though she suspects that her parents who are both rather secretive members within the UNSC have been pulling strings to make sure that she doesn't. Mary is after all their only remaining child and no doubt they probably want some grandchildren. Too bad that Mary married the UNSC seeing no better way to serve humanity than by continuing to fight for it's survival.
