Character Name: Noble Five [Callsign], Jorge-052. Feel free to make up a surname.
Character Series: Halo: Reach
Character Age: 41
Background: Right here!
Personality: Jorge-052 is what you would typically expect of a SPARTAN-II Commando. Solid and steadfast in his attitude, taking a no-nonsense, military edge to most of his actions.
Due to his training, Jorge is far superior than a normal human. He doesn't seem to let it go to his head, or use that power to boost his own ego. He mainly concentrates his efforts on performing his duty, his mission, and protecting as many people as he can.
His training is important to mention, too, as it was key to Jorge becoming the man he is today. He was captured as a boy, barely six years old, and taught how to kill and survive, but also had honour and the differences between right and wrong drilled into him. Being from a close-knit group, Jorge has always seen his fellow SPARTAN-II's as family, being able to relate to and, because of their similarities in mental and physical make-up because of the selection process, his closest friends.
In canon, Jorge is seen to be more caring than his fellow SPARTANs. He seems to be able to deal with civilians a lot better, even going out of his way to help them at times.
Despite this, his 30 years of battle-field experience have made him a force to be reckoned with. Being the only SPARTAN-II on Noble Team seems to have forced him to earn a place of respect amongst the others. The differences in their training, and the fact that they had a SPARTAN-II training the III's, means that the III's on Noble were likely intimidated by Jorge's presence. This, obviously, causes tension between them, as no supersoldier likes to be intimidated.
Jorge seems lax and easygoing, when not in battle. That, and he seems to consider his team family. It is likely these qualities that lead him to be accepted into Noble, and considered a full member of the team.
Jorge is seen interacting with a civilian girl in a calm, almost soothing way. The other SPARTANs on Noble Team just ignore her. Emile-A239 says something about Jorge forgetting what he is at times. Jorge then snaps at Emile, moving as if he was going to hit his teammate for that comment. He probably would have, if Carter hadn't gotten in the way.
Jorge is seen to have a compassionate side, as he seems to care what happens to the civilian girl, even in face of the scorn from his team-mates. Emile, in particular. When Jorge says to Carter that she'll need a full psychiatric workup, Emile comments that "she's not the only one." This indicates that, Emile, at least, thinks that compassion may be a weakness in SPARTANs
Jorge's relationship with Emile seems to be mostly rivalry. The above examples show that in abundance. There are examples of, especially after Jorge dies in canon, the fact that Emile actually cares pretty deeply for Jorge, the most notable being when he destroys two Covenant vehicles, proclaiming that their destruction was for Kat and Jorge.
The rivalry between Emile and Jorge could stem from the fact that Jorge is considerably more experienced, tougher and intimidating than Emile.
Jorge seems to be on good terms with Catherine Halsey, the instigator of the SPARTAN program. This may be due to the fact that, as a SPARTAN-II, Jorge considers Halsey to be something of a mother figure. This causes tension between Jorge and the SPARTAN-III's on Noble Team, because it's obvious that Halsey has a preference for Jorge, as he's a SPARTAN-II, and a product of her own research.
This is shown when she contacts Noble, threatening to have Carter and Catherine thrown in a brig for accessing restricted material. In contrast, she greets Jorge warmly, and only sounding disappointed when she found out he modified her design of the MJOLNIR armour.
Jorge's relationship with Noble Six seems to improve over the course of the Fall of Reach. This may be due to the fact that, as the newest member of Noble, Jorge feels some sort of similarities as an outsider to a new team.
This is also an example of how quickly Jorge can make friends and allies with new people. Noble Six is also shown as a "lone wolf" at times, so Jorge getting close to them can be seen as another example. Their relationship grows so much that Jorge entrusts his dog-tags to Six, knowing he wasn't going to make it.
This shows that Jorge, at least, trusts Six enough to hold onto his memory.
Being born on Reach, Jorge has a passion for protecting the planet and its people. He even goes as far to sacrifice his life, believing that he did it to save it.
Drawing from this, it's safe to assume that Jorge will get on well enough with other UNSC personnel. It is doubtful he'll pay attention to such things as the rivalry between the SPARTAN corps and and ODST corps and, when teamed up with them, will show the same dedication as he would with Noble
All in all, Jorge seems to represent many different character traits. As a soldier, he is deadly, calculating, and fierce. As a teammate, he is dedicated and a strong link, and, as a friend, he is loyal, protective and caring. He does not seem to shy from letting his humanity show, when it is necessary, but, in equal measures, is unafraid of displaying the fact that he's a born and bred killing machine.
Abilities: Jorge is a genetically altered human, designed to be a supersoldier. He was given enhanced strength, intelligence, senses, stamina and build. All of this will, obviously be removed upon entry to Mayfield.
He has 30 years of battlefield experience, a heavy-weapons expert and shown to be good at mechanics by the fact that he modified his own MJOLNIR armour, a feat even Dr. Catherine Halsey, the creator of the armour, was surprised at.
Sample Entry: Please write as if you've already been accepted and writing an ordinary post from your character during their stay in Mayfield. Using an "introduction" post is fine, but we tend to discourage it, as the typical "who am I where am I what is this crazy place" format doesn't really give us a good grasp of how your character will behave on a daily basis. If you have trouble writing sample posts, we allow links to museboxes or other RPs to demonstrate as a sample. However, you'll want to post with the account you'll be linking to in that situation. Please make sure that your app is written in first person (!!!), as that's the format that will be used in the roleplay. Generally, we want to see at least five sentences, if not more. Prose log style samples will not be accepted. If you're confused about the distinction, we will be happy to explain.
