Captain Jacob Keyes, her Father, died at halo, becoming one of the first human victims of the Flood. Her dedication to the duty and raw ability have helped her dodge accusations of partisanship during the short, but distinguished career in the position.

Humans[edit]

Human

Currently structured under the UNSC (a military command government). They find that they are well damaged after years of fighting off the Covenant. A primarily peaceful, exploratory species, they have made several attempts of diplomatic outreach during the conflict, all being ignored. Most Human occupied worlds have been destroyed, dwindling the current population to almost nothing. Their home world of Earth is currently being occupied by a Covenant archaeological and military force.

Elites[edit]

Elite

Formerly the ruling military class of the covenant, Elites (Sangheili) are proud fighters with a valiant history. Their recent split from the Covenant was sparked by religious differences, but the schism runs deeper than that. Elites now ally with their former Human foes in part of a deep-seated resentment of the Prophet rule and in part because they understand the scale of the Flood threat.
