OK guys, when making your character all you have to do is give me basic info on them, including their weapons. Human characters are limited but not Covenant, though all Covenant characters will die sometime in the story. You can have up to 4 characters but are limited to only on human character. When you create you character Pm it to me and I will look over it and tell you if anything need to be changed. FYI I do not tolorate God modding, any chracter is capable of being injured or killed...oh and please dont rp for others characters.

This takes place a little bit after halo one.

[Biohazard]

Please give an example of a character sheet using one of your characters...

NPC's can pretty much be controlled by anyone, unless I specify one that cant, but dont go overboard with it.

Thin and well built. Buzzed, black, curly hair. Clean shaven with added side burns. Watchful eyes that hardly miss anything. Quick, quiet footsteps, even with heavy military boots. Can blend in with surroundings without moving, very still and because of skin colour, is able to blend in shadows.
Personality:
Sly and a pettifogger(?). Quick thinking has saved this man before. Relatively quiet and keeps to himself. Thinking is something that this man does quiet a bit of. Reliable and can take orders well. Respectful when respected.
Rank: Pvt
Class: Scout
Weapons: MA2B assault rifle (20 clips), M6D handgun (8 clips), 6 M9 HE-DP, also trained to use a S2 AM sniper.
Background:
Well, what can I say. I’m a thief. And I knew what I was doing too. Well, at least I thought I knew what I was doing at the time. That’s how I wounded up here. Which gave me lots of time to think and reflect on passed mistakes that had gotten me in trouble. The last slip-up is how I wound up in jail.

Now that I’ve figured out how to cover my tracks and not give things away, via mouth, I think I’ve become rather dangerous. But, I’m stuck in jail and not likely to get out. And I can break out, that’s just impossible.

But, you know, patience is a virtue, and low and behold, something came my way. The Marines was requesting able bodied men. The Marines had requested that the prison make a list of men that could serve the Military. What a good idea! I wasn’t on the list… But my hopes went up when the officer was going around and hand selecting personnel. He didn’t pick me either… But I managed to get out and sneak in. And I almost got caught. Well, actually, I did, but I didn’t… Lemme explain.

We lined up in front of two buses that were going to take us to the training grounds. As we stood there, I overheard that the officer was late for something due to the prison had lost its list of men that were going and wasted the officers time. He wasn’t impressed. And due to the lack of time, the list was never read and we were just stuffed onto the bus and driven off. But before that, one jail guard had spotted me and knew that I wasn’t on the list. He tried to tell the officer, but he was so annoyed at being held back that he was interrupted and ignored. So, no one knows that I’m an illegal stowaway. Except that one guy that can’t say anything because he has no power, but I know it will leak eventually… it’s just a matter of time before the Marines is notified. *I just hope that they won’t or can’t send me back because they won’t be able to reach me.*


Covenant forces
Oolgar Nefkis (Grim1)
Age:?
Weight: 320
Height: 8'2
Rank: Secondary command of the Covenant 3rd special forces unit
Armor: black
Weapons: Plasma rifle, needler, and 7 plasma grenades
Personality: Although he is a pretty nice elite compared to others, he wont think twice about putting a plasma bolt in your chest for things like insubordination. Those in his command have complete loyalty towards him and will follow him into any situation. He has no tolerance towards the human race and kills them with his bare hands whenever the chance is given. Intellectually he is hard to match, his stratagies have saved many of his men from pointless deaths.
Background: *Grunt* What a pointless question. I was given life and raised a soldier. beyond that theres only the success me and my men have had on our missions, never failed to complete a single one. This is just like all the others. Go in, retreive the tool of the ancients, kill what must be killed and leave.

Looks interesting but I'm to busy but I'll check in evrey now and then.

[Nickodemus]

AS stated many times by many people. If you want people who are not Halo Nerds then i would explain a little more than that about who they are? what they are? etc,. etc,.

with this you are only going to get a couple of people and die out in a couple of days.

Assume people have no clue what the heck you are talking about and act acordingly.

Defil3r did a good job on this one. Take a look at it.

[Grim1]

Im sry, kinda new here and havent read all the other threads. Anyways for all those who doesnt know Halo like the back of their hand it is a universal war between the Human race and the supperior in every way Covenant, which is a variety of alien races who have joined together in an attempt to reach their religous holy land. They are lead by a race know only as Prophets who have no sympathy towards mankind and only want to obliterate us, by using the many many many armies at their command. The other classes of aliens within the covenant are listed below.
[
Forces of the Covenant.

Elites: Roughly 8'6 in height and incredibly storng, Elites are the leaders and brians of the Covenant forces. Ontop of their recharable full-body shield their bodies are naturally tough to being nearly bullet proof, and they wield plasma rifles, plasma pistols needlers, sometimes energy sword, and plasma grenades. Their armor depends on their rank and class
Blue- Fresh from training and young they are full of ambition and and eager to join in battle. Because of their lack of unexperiance they tend to be a little jumpy and quick to charges the enemy.
Red- Veteraned soldiers of the Covenant army, these elites are wise and aware. Because of the years theyve served they are more adapt to combat and therefore are great stratagists and exellent fighters.
Gold- One of the highest ranking these elites are the field generals of the covenant army. They lead their troops by example by joining in any battle that is necessary. Their experiance in battle makes them incredible stratagist and deadly opponents. Their engery sheilds are about 1.5 times stronger then normal elites.
White(Ultra's)- The highest of the high. These elites command the covenant armada's that are responisble for destroying all of our colonized planets. They are undoubtably the toughest of the elites with their energy shields being nearly 3 times as powerful as a red or blue. These elites are BOTH smarter and stronger then any other elite class.

Hunters: Standing at 12' tall these monsters are the brute strength of the covenant army. Ontop of their unbelievable strength and their comletely bulletproof armor they wield a giant arm shield that can be used as a melee weapon and smash just about anything into nothing. They also have a very powerful energy cannon, the fuel rod cannon, that fires a green blob of plasma at an angle, this can easily take down a tank if your not careful. Hunters tend to travel in pairs, and are not too bright.... (there's pretty much only one type of hunter, but your welcom to customize your a bit if youd like.)

Jackal: Jackals are 5'8 bird like creatures with supperior senses, which makes them perfect for scouting or assasinanting. They normally weild a hand held energy shield and a plasma pistol.
blue- Lower class, and somewhat less potent of an energy shield.
orange- Higher class, somewhat more powerful of energy shield and somewhat better senses.

Grunt: Lowest of the covenant forces these 5' weak creatures are simply easy kills, though when in packs they can be quite dangerous. They have light armor that does little more than to house their life support system. Wield plasma pistols, plasma rifles, needlers and grenades.
Orange- lowest class, and slightly dumber.
Red - higherclass(though still low) and slightly more intellegent.

Special forces:
Black elite- pretty much a quick assualt team, they are very deadly and very silent. engery shield 1.3 times stronger the average.
Brown elite- along with energy shiel, they have a cloaking device and can make them nearly invisible, though their shields are only half as strong as the average.
Black grunt- the smartest and overall best of the grunt race, these are the foot soldiers led by the black elites.

Ok thats about all of that...now humans.

Human forces.

hmm...well they are pretty much just human.

Right now I cant think of anything else so on to termonology.

Longsword: Human assault spacecraft
Station: large cube like space craft meant for resupply and repair of Human spaceships/
Nighthawk: Human stealth spacecraft equiped with rift space technology.

Sereph: Alien assault spacecraft, unshielded.
flagship: Lead ship of armada.
dropship: landing craft capable of carrying about 20 troops (Im not sure.)

Anyways anything else I either cant think of or is not important for this thread.

[Grim1]

Sorry for not putting up characters or anything, my grandfather died suddenly and we had to fly out to his funeral.

[UMSLdragon]

Awe, that's too bad. I know what it's like to lose a grandfather, it sux. My condolences (sp)

[Grim1]

OK since we are not getting a rush of people to join im going to change a few things.

1) The majority of the covenant forces will be background units that have nothing to do with the story. Only a few will actually have somthing to do with it, you are still welcome to make covenant characters becauyse I wouldnt want to have to rp for them all myself x.x
2) The amount of marines in this mission will either be cut down or there will just have to be one that are not anyones character but controled my myself and those participateing in the thread.
3) Because of the lack of people I have come up with some new things to add to the story which should make iot very interesting :P

[UMSLdragon]

Good. And the reason why many people aren't getting on this RP is either because they are in school and don't have time to join another one, or just don't want to...

[DarkMirror]

Ill join.

But why do the covenet have to die? cant it be open ended?

[Grim1]

Well the majority of the covenant forces will die, those that dont will only live if they...well...leave before the Big event happens....im trying not to spoil it so sry if its not very clear.

[RekoShin]

So... When are we going to start? Do we have enough or these is just going to die?
