The year is 2524 CE. Bloody insurrection has the Outer Colonies of UEG-controlled space in the grip of chaos. The UNSC has attempted to contain it, to no avail. But another, far more powerful threat is approaching. The Covenant are coming, and no one expects them.
The first part of the RP will focus on the Insurrection, and after first contact with the Covenant, will jump to the midst of the Harvest Campaign in 2527, then will jump to 2550 and the closing years of the Human-Covenant War. While applications for Spartans will be allowed, only a certain number of applications for them will be accepted. This will be a character-driven RP focusing on the men and women who vow to defend humanity from the Covenant onslaught. Co-OP is Egg Patio.

He was forced to fend for himself in the uncivilized jungles of Arcadia and at the age of 8 he was abducted for the SPARTAN-II program. He has been training on Reach ever since, but has recently been deployed to the Outer Colonies to gain experience fighting rebels before the augmentation procedures slated to begin in 2525.
