Kristof-021 is a SPARTAN-II Commando in the UNSC special forces. He is one of the original members of Ghost Squad, and operated under the callsign "Dragon". He is currently listed as MIA.

Childhood and Spartan Training
"If you need help up, just ask." -Kristof to Tyler-014, while they were climbing up the belltower

Before his abduction, Kristof lived with his drug-addict father at an apartment in Berlin, Germany. His father was a Russian immigrant who came to find a new life; he met Kristof's mother there, and they lived together until Kristof was born. Kristof's mother killed herself, and his father was left alone to support the child. Because of this, Kristof was forced to fend for himself all the way until his abduction at the age of seven.

During training, Kristof befriended Tyler-014, and ever since stuck together until Kristof's presumed death. During multiple training exercises, including the bell tower climb, Kristof mentored Tyler in climbing skills and taught him multiple tricks to help them win.

Personality
Kristof is a strong, powerfully-built warrior, and an excellent strategist. On the field, he is an extraordinary ally as well as a powerful foe. Even though Tyler is officially the leader of Ghost Squad, Kristof was unofficially given the most authority. He was a great leader, and was known to have an aura of victory about him. He has been known to put other's safety before his own.

His personal relationship with the other Spartan-II's of Ghost was almost as a father-figure. Even during training, he never failed to be there for both Tyler and Dustin as a friend and, after deployment, as a mentor.

Skillset
Kristof has a variety of skills, including a great knowledge of hand-to-hand combat and experience with the M6D PDWS. His muscle and intelligence lend him only strength in close quarters encounters, and even the Sangheili have complimented his skills with an energy sword.
