    This, of course, is a Halo RP. The timeling is a century or two after the end of the Covenant war. Rules are below. If you don't agree with them, leave now.

    -No godmodding/powerplaying. Common sense, really, but I won't tolerate it.
    -You can have multiple characters, but if you have two, say, only one can be military personell. The other must be in a civilian position.

    When the Elites lost favor with the Prophets, a schism split the Covenant in two. The Elites, Hunters, and Grunts sided with humanity while the Drones, Brutes, and Prophets desperately tried to hold the Covenant intact. Thus began the Covenant war.

    Three generations of vicious fighting. Billions of lives lost. But the armada of the Allied Galactic Republic won the day. The rings were destroyed. The price of this victory, though, was terrible. The fighting devastated our entire galaxy. A grand total of five planets remained remotely habitable, far from enough to hold the population of the galaxy. And thus, the Allied Republic took to the stars. Massive capital ships, once used for war held humans and aliens alike in their bellies. At the core of this fleet was the Armada, an elite military group within the Republic Navy.

    This group was home of the best minds in the Republic. These researchers restarted the Spartan program, improved space travel, and eventually, perfected intergalactic travel. The Republic could now return to the planets, albeit, planets in other galaxies.

    The Covenant, though, was not entirely wiped out. The Prophets held together a ragtag fleet. They too, perfected intergalactic travel. Both groups, then, made a shocking discovery upon reaching the Andromeda galaxy. The Forerunners had spread themselves across the universe, leaving ringworlds in every galaxy to combat the menace of the Flood. Now, it?s a race between the Republic an the remainders of the Covenant to control these ringworlds, and moreover, the fate of the universe. Each Ark acts as a transmitter. If all Arks are activated, and all rings fired, the universe will implode upon itself.

    Name: Skandranon
    Age: 83 (it's different for hunters, considering the kind of lifeforms they are. See "other")
    Gender: N/A
    Race/Class: Hunter
    Equipment: Standard issue hunter armor.
    Appearance: Standing tall, like most other hunters, he is large, bulky, and lives inside the shell of armor that is the dwelling for any hunter.
    Personality: Calm, and always ready to plan before rushing into combat. A weapon as deadly as the fuel rod cannon mounted to his armor.
    Armor color: Unlike the true standard, Skandranon has an armor in patterns of steel and green, with a human symbol on it known as "Yin & Yang."
    Favored weapon: Fuel rod cannon
    Weapons carried: Fuel rod cannon
    Area of proficiency: Assault, but with above average skill in driving.
    Other: Hunters are incredibly dangerous foes, deployed more like equipment than soldiers. They are brought in for demolition or heavy defense, and almost always work in pairs. These massive creatures are composed of multiple organisims that exist within the Hunter armor, creating a bipedal creature. Near-impenetrable armor and a devastating hand-held fuel rod weapon make hunters very problematic. -Excerpt from Halo 2 manual.

    Name: Rabii (Bii for short)
    Age: 10 (prodigy type of thing)
    Gender: female
    Race/Class: Scientist (uh huh =D)
    Equipment: Medical kit, tool kit
    Appearance: The most unusual thing about Rabii is her hair color. It's a kind of gleaming magenta, with tints of pastel violet and pink running along the middle. Her bangs are evently distributed on her forehead, with side bangs coming down past her face. Eyes are crystal-clear cerulean suffused with shallow ivory, often flecked with amber. She wears a lab coat a tad too big for her, the sleeves rolled up to reveal her dangling bracelets of amethyst. It trails down to her knees, where she wears an ordinary pair of gray baggy pants and running shoes. Overall, her height measures to be about 4'5. She looks quite young (no duh) with her smooth complezion and a light blush.
    Personality: Er....'authority' can basically sum it up. Rabii is silent most of the time, but whenever she opens her mouth, it's either factual or extremely sarcastic. She's naturally curious and makes safe assumptions everywhere, with her high intelligence and observation. She absolutely detests having to be proved wrong, so being the 10 yr old self she is, she will remain stubborn and refuse to admit her mistakes. However cynical she acts, many are deceived by her outer appearance. One wonders what goes inside her mind all the time.

    I think I did something wrong, hmm? =3;
     
    <OOC>Put a race in, and you're good. Most scientists are human, but I can see scientists within the Elites.<OOC>
