And on The 7th Day (Halo RP)

[Sav]

The date is July 7th, 2252. For years, humanity has been at war with a vicious pact of alien races known as the Covenant. Their armies have destroyed countless human worlds and lives, but their wars have always been distant. Until now. You are a Spartan on the planet Odin, and the Covenant have come to destroy you. Show them how stupid a mistake that was.

Odin

Since the founding of the first colony there in 2412, Odin has been a valuable resource to humanity. It is around the size of Mars, and has a variable ecostructure. To the North and far South of the planet lie ice sheets and snowy mountains. The more central southern regions are home to rocky plateaus and deserts, with only a few small towns. A dig site has recently been set up here to investigate what could be a Forerunner artifact. And on the large subcontinental island in the centre of the planet lies a lush rainforest region and New Macedon, the sprawling city that houses the planet's orbital elevator. It has never seen much violence, but even so a strong military garrison is kept, including your Spartan unit and the imposing ONI Arrow Base. But the fate of the planet is now tipping in the balance.

The Covenant

The Covenant are unstoppable. A collection of powerful alien races, they greatly outnumber us in both soldiers and technology, and they are intent on making humanity extinct. They have arrived on Odin on the 7th of July, and have immediately begun to land troops and set up bases. A counterattack is needed if we are ever to stop them before they overrun this planet. They are filled with zeal, and fear nothing. Nothing except you.

Your Mission

Your mission is simple. You are a Spartan in Epsilon unit, a mixed squad of Spartan IIs and Spartan IIIs. You have been kitted out in the best training, armour and weapons money can buy, and you will be sent towards the enemy with the goal of stopping them. The chances of Odin being saved before the Covenant find what they need and destroy it are slim. If anything, you need to buy some time and save enough people to keep humanity going. The leader of military forces is Commander Hackett, an intelligent and brave young officer. The space station Disciple Nine and it's cadre of Frigates and fighters will keep their ships occupied, but not forever. The smart AI Kiara is at your disposal, and you have full access to the planet's armoury. The fate of a planet is in your hands. Go kick some alien butt.

Name: Kamau-108

Homeworld: Earth
Bio: One of the successful SPARTAN-IIs, Kamau shows strong skill in combat. Dr Catherine Halsey often remarked positively on his ability to keep calm in combat, and his quick reactions. He is capable of using most of the weapons available in the UNSC arsenal, but he feels most comfortable using the Battle Rifle. He also has some knowledge with technology, and is more than capable of driving land vehicles. Outside of battle, he shows no signs o any physical or mental weakening after 30 years of combat. He feels empathy towards non-Spartans and will sometimes cross the mission boundaries to ensure the safety of individuals. He is also extremely loyal to his fellow Spartans, and makes a point of assasting them whenever he can. He takes no pleasure in killing, but accepts it as a necessary evil. He often loses combat effectiveness against human enemies due to his feelings towards them, but is a hyper-lethal killing machine against the Covenant, like all Spartans.

Homeworld: Earth
Bio: Gordon was born on Reach. He grew up to be a smart man, a natural leader. When he was kidnapped, Dr. Halsey looked over him often.

Even though he is the team leader, he is very knowledgeable about technology.

[Leyyuce]

Name: Leyland - 202
Armor: Security armor w/ Scout helmet; blue visor
Physical Appearance: Blonde hair in a military-style haircut; long nose, small green eyes, thin mouth
Preferred Weapon: Sniper rifle
Homeworld: Earth
Bio: Leyland does not have much experience in actual combat. He is a very skilled sniper, although his nerves often pose a problem, as he has a tendancy to lose his cool under pressure. Leyland follows orders diligentley and without question, and must be probed for his opinions or feelings.

[Sav]

Sweet! We need about 2 or 3 more people to start.

[Leyyuce]

Spoiler:

Can't wait to start.

[Spiney]

Armor: JFO Helmet/Security Shoulders, MJOLNIR/HP/HALO Chest Piece w/extra grenade satchels, Wrist TACPAD and TACTICAL/HARD CASE.

Preferred Weapons: Shotgun, Grenade Launcher, Rocket Launcher
Homeworld: Harvest
Bio: Johnathan is a very loud outspoken person. He was one of the lucky few to escape Harvest and luck has continued since. He is often refereed to as "That Lucky SOB", mainly because every time he runs headlong into battle screaming against the Covenant he always emerges somewhat unscathed. Johnathan is fond of explosives. He enjoys the pulsonic explosion of a frag grenade and the plasmic detonation of a Covenant Wraith being destroyed. If it's a stealth mission, he'll still bring along a rocket launcher.

Spoiler:

PS: Savilius, you know Master Chief's names is John, because if it Master Chief, that breaks Halo's lore is so many ways.

[Sav]

Spoiler:

I had a mental block, his name is Gordon now.

At least 1 more person and we can start. Can't wait.

Going for a female!


Name: Calypso-042 (Goes by Caly, or just 042)
Armor: Wears the Pilot helmet stained maroon.She also wear the chest and shoulder armor of a Martian Rebel. . They were ripped off the people who killed her family on Mars. Her boots are standard-issue.
Physical Appearance: Long flowing black hair, eyes the color of an ocean storm. No one can honestly describe her body, because, as she always says, "The only people who have every, and will ever see me without my armor, are my dad, and the lucky son of a ***** who is my coroner."
Preferred Weapon: She wields two M7S Caseless Submachine Guns, but relies on her wit and cunning to lay traps using her explosives knowledge.
Homeworld: Mars.
Bio: She was raised on Mars, on the inner streets of Losantiville. As a child she learned street-smarts, but the city was dangerous. All though she survived, many of the people she knew and cared for were victims of harsh reality. Many of them killed, or worse. At age 10, Mars was attacked by neo-Communist Koslovics, who killed her mother and left Caly with broken heart, and a few broken ribs. She managed to kill one of them, and rip his armor off. She wears it to this day to remind her what she fights for.
Due to her past, Calypso has a terrible blood thirst. She is easy aggravated, and could very well kill herself if left to her own in a battle.

Gordon stood near the doors to Oni Arrowhead. Nearby, the comm blasted out:
"All Spartans of the Epsilon unit (Players) Report to the Doors to Oni."
Nearby, the doors opened, and a young man dressed in numerous medals walked out.
"I take it your the team commander." The man said. Gordon recognized this man, it was Commander Hackket.
"Sir, waiting for my squad." Gordon gently said, taking his helmet off.
"Good, i have duties to attend, i will see you with your squad spartan." With this, Hackket rushed off in a hurry.

[King Acunasti]

Spoiler:

...Okay. Should I still join?

[Sav]

Spoiler:

Yeah, just post your sheet, and i assign u a number.

[Lunarsweets]

Calypso winced as the deafening sound of the Falcon's propellers steadily got louder. She was told the group would be here by Six. She was still waiting.

[Sav]

Gordon stood up, and moved to the back of Oni, where they were supposed to meet. He approached the area, and noticed a girl in armor.
"I take it your Calypso? Im Gordon, the squad leader, honor to be in this squad."
Gordon sat down, and took his helmet off, and held it in his hands. he tried to ignore the defening sound of a falcon nearby.

[Lunarsweets]

A man approached Calypso, took off his helmet and greeted her. Calypso eyed the man and laughed, "Put your helmet on. I wouldn't want you being shot out of my bird. Nobody leaves unless I say. You may be the leader on the ground, but when we're up there, I'm queen."

[Sav]

Spoiler:

Um....

"We'll see about that" Gordon muttered quietly, and walked off, sitting down on a nearby crate. Gordon put his helmet back on, and sat silently, waiting for his squad.

[Lunarsweets]

Spoiler:

Hmm?

[Sav]

Spoiler:

I expected a more friendly greeting ....lol

[Lunarsweets]

"Wait," She said, "I'm Calypso, pilot of the group, as I assume you know. Sorry if I came off too... strong for your tastes. Just feelin' out the squad, is all." She stuck her hand out towards him. "Want me to show her to you?"

[Sav]

Spoiler:

Her?

Gordon turned around, and shaked the girls hand.
"Yeah...you a pilot or something? I assume we have a long flight after this debriefing."

[Leyyuce]

Leyland secured his helmet tightly as the urgent message blared over the intercom, filling the ammunition room he currentley occupied. He quickly loaded his pistol, returned the weapon to it's holster on his thigh, and retrieved his sniper rifle from the corner of the room. He had loaded it several minutes earlier. Once satisfied, Leyland stood, and quickly moved from his current position to the rendezous point. His new commanding officer, Gordon, stood next to a female spartan. "Reporting for duty, sir." he stated nervously.

[Sav]

A man walked outside the building and walked over to Gordon.
"I assume your'e Leyland? Im Gordon, welcome to the team." Gordon stood up, and took his helmet off, and held his hand out to Leyland. Over head, Gordon noticed a large amount of Falcons passing by, this piqued his curiosity.

[Lunarsweets]

"Yes, I'm the pilot. The best damn pilot on this side of Reach, I'd say." She nodded towards the new fellow standing in front of Gordon. "What do you do?"

[Sav]

"Good, we'll need a good pilot out here. Those banshee's are pretty tough, but at least they're not here, this is probably a disturbance." Gordon sat down, and admired the lush landscape, at least this would be preserved, Gordon thought. He pulled his Assault Rifle out and started looking at it.
