A Halo RTD
Greetings Spartans,
Name's Roland, and I'm the shipboard A.I. here on Infinity, I practically run the place, so you know, no big.
Orders came down from the Commander this morning, all new Spartans need to be made combat ready ASAP. Sorry to throw you straight into the deep end but, your not new to the UNSC, surely you know how to swim by now?
We'll begin by running through saved simulations of missions performed by your fellow Spartans IVs, Sydney Team. The simulation will begin shortly, use the time left to check your requisitions and load-outs, and make sure All your info is up to date in your data-pad. See you in the simulations soon Spartan. Oh, and welcome to Infinity.
Hello All! This is an RTD that I have been itching to do ever since Halo 4 was released. It takes place in the wondrous universe of Halo and will follow the adventures of several Spartan IVs from the day they first arrive on the flagship of the UNSC, Infinity, through 'til when they are experienced veterans.
This RTD will be mission based, and when each mission is over, the Spartans will return to Infinity in order to restock, update load-outs and requisition new upgrades. Team play is highly recommended and will be essential in some places. Whilst it is not easy to kill a Spartan, it is possible.
So, you want to be a Spartan? Great! Just fill out the form below and you're good to go. I am looking for one Fireteam of 5 Spartan-IVs but if I somehow get 8 applicants, I will split you up into 2, Four man teams. If I don't get 8 peoples, any more than 5 will be wait-listed.
Name: Pretty self-explanatory.
Gender: Again, if I need to explain this, you probably aren't fit to be a Spartan.
Appearance: What do you look like.
Military Background: What did you do before applying to the Spartan-IV program, in which branch of the UNSC did you serve, etc.
Armour: By, default you will all be issued with the standard Recruit armour set, you can purchase different sets, but a few of them may require you prove yourself in different areas of expertise before they become available.

adwarf
Name: Holston 'Maverick' Jackson
Gender: Male
Appearance: Holston stands about six feet, eight inches with very short brown hair, and murky green eyes. He has a rather muscular build, though he has a rather strange gait caused by his years spent on board the UNSC Valkyrie as acting Commander, the ships gravity was always kept slightly below Earth standards due to the fact that lower gravity better facilitated travel, and in some cases work within the ship.
Military Background: Holston spent ten years in the UNSC Navy starting out as a Crewman Recruit to Ensign over the spawn of four years to achieve the rank Ensign, along with his role as commanding officer of the UNSC Valkyrie, a Stalwart class scout frigate. He proceeded to serve as commander of the Valkyrie for six years undertaking numerous reconnaissance, and exploration missions alongside over three dozen combat engagements. At the end of the six years when he had the chance to volunteer for the Spartan IV program he decided to give up his command of the Valkyrie to take part in the project.

His right cheek has a jagged burn/scar stretching about an inch from below his eye. He also has the standard ODST tattoo on his right bicep.
Military Background: Jason enlisted and volunteered for the UNSC ODSTs at the age of 18. He caught the attention of UNSC High Command while fighting on the Ark, where he received the scar on his cheek from the energy sword of a Sangheili that he got too close to after his squad thought it was down. He was able to put a bullet through its skull before it could finish him off. On the way back to the dropship, his squad leader was taken out by a Kig-yar(Jackal) sniper, but Jason was able to lead his squad back to the ship amidst the Flood and Covenant forces that were clashing in the last stages of the Ark Conflict.
