Prompt: You are a SPARTAN-IV recruit. Following augmentation and armor fitting, you're on your way to a military academy for continued training. Across from you is one of your fellow recruits, head down, seemingly asleep, or deep in thought. As the Pelican you're in lands and the loading bay closes, he's the last one to stand up and exit the ship. Your C.O. begins issuing orders, assigning him - his name now revealed as Harrison-334 - as the leader of Squad A. You are also assigned to Squad A.

Rules: No ERP, joke RP, joke OC, etc. No killing him or any other recruits (obviously). The same goes for Marines, senior officers, and other UNSC characters. You're in training right now, so no deep backstories other than a career in the UNSC Marine Corps, since SPARTAN-IVs come from the normal military. Romance is allowed and also encouraged, but only if you have a female OC. To clear up: Your character doesn't know my character, at least not directly. They trained together, but they haven't spent much time around each other. For all intensive purposes, your character and my character have never met each other. Some knowledge of Halo lore is required, but not much - just know about SPARTAN-IVs, Jul 'Mdama's Covenant, and the UNSC, and you'll be fine. Everything to do with your character's past as a Marine can be covered by real-life US Marine Corps information, and anything else can be explained as it comes up.

You can choose what role your character serves on your team. In the RP, it was assigned to them because they showed an exceptional proficiency in the skills associated with that role. This role will not change if/when we do a timeskip to after training is complete, unless you want it to.

In an attempt to gain some traction for this RP, I'll provide what you need to know lore-wise:

SPARTAN-IVs - Augmented super soldiers. The latest generation of Spartans. Recruits are pulled from the ranks of the UNSC's military (mainly the Marine Corps and Navy) based on high skill and proficiency in certain areas.

UNSC - The United Nations Space Command, the main military arm of the UEG (Unified Earth Government) that governs troop deployments across UNSC space to defend allies or attack enemies. They also search for prospects for colonization and aid in the construction of these colonies before the CMA (Colonial Military Authority) takes governing power.

Jul 'Mdama's Covenant - An offshoot of the Covenant, a hyper-religious military faction of aliens from multiple systems. Led by Jul 'Mdama, a zealous and arrogant Sangheili (Elite) warlord who despised the San'Shyuum (Prophets) for their cruel and manipulating methods which they used to trick all the species of the original Covenant into an equivalent to a suicide cult.

Elaboration to the SPARTAN-IV blurb:

Spartans in general are augmented super soldiers deployed by the UNSC as special forces infantry. There are four SPARTAN generations:

ORION Project subjects - The few (and I mean few) survivors of Project ORION, undertaken in 2536 with the goal of creating advanced infantry soldiers with greater strength, endurance, and skill than normal Marines. Sergeant Major Avery Johnson was the only known ORION survivor.

SPARTAN-IIs - The first successful generation, and the first official "Spartans." Each SPARTAN-II was kidnapped at the age of six and replaced by a flash clone, chosen from amongst their peers for exceptional skills such as intelligence, problem solving, leadership, strength, etc. They were trained rigorously, and many did not survive the augmentation process. Those who did became living legends in the UNSC.

SPARTAN-IIIs - Drafted from colonist populations at age 16 (or thereabouts), chosen based on similar parameters to SPARTAN-IIs. S-IIIs were divided into three groups: Alpha Company, which specialized in suicide missions and throwing soldiers at a problem until it's solved; Beta Company, built on the success of Alpha Company with less expendable soldiers; and Gamma Company, made up of individuals who washed out of the previous two companies but still showed promise for being Spartans, described by then-Lieutenant Kurt Ambrose as "the finest Spartans ever."

SPARTAN-IVs - Formed from willing participants through the UNSC's Spartan Operations Branch, accepted on similar standards to the S-II and S-III programs. Their previous combat experience combined with the native effectiveness of the Spartans makes them incredible soldiers, outshining the S-IIIs and even some of the S-IIs with their performance just weeks out of training.

I could alter it to SPARTAN-III training, but when I mix old and new gen Spartans, usually the old gen ones are instructors, like how Mandalorian Bounty Hunters trained the Clone Troopers in Star Wars. If you wanna do SPARTAN-III, name which company and I'll alter it, but otherwise I'd rather you do IVs.

I'd just rather them both be trainees for this. We can work with that though - maybe your character is getting used to their new augmentations?
