Biography

During his childhood, James wanted to be a member of the Spagoina Royal Guard like his grandfather was before him. When James was seven years old, his home of New Lagos was attacked by forces killing millions. When Ashcabot, the capital was attacked, James' grandparents and parents were killed leaving him with just his brother to wonder the waste lands.

Coming across other survivors, James and his brother Sampson gathered as many as they could to fight against the Covenant left behind to hunt them down. James became a medical type soldier and cared and gave emotional support to the young children they found. One night, the group was attacked by and half the group was killed including Sampson. The group then saw James as a useless by product and neglected him. After years of wondering the group was found by UNSC forces lead by.

While on the UNSC Headstrong, James sunk into the bridge and worked with the crew and Mendez. Unknown to everyone on the ship, James was a candidate for the Spartan-III program and thus once everyone else was dropped off on Earth, Mendez offered James the chance of revenge, and he took it. Landing on Onyx, James was paired with Harvest refugee, Elizabeth Pratt or Elizabeth-A221. After years of training together, the two joined Tiger Team along with Roderick-A207, Steven-A231, and Stewart-A210.
