Childhood & Early Career
Kai was a BOB, born aboard the UNSC Manhattan in the Procyon system in 2525. He was raised on Arcadia as part of a family of four. In 2531, the planet came under Covenant attack. When they invaded, Kai was attending school and was evacuated with the rest of his classmates off-world. His parents and older sister were on a separate ship that came under attack and were killed in a fireball.

Kai was then sent to a refugee camp on Reach and when approached by ONI offering to get revenge on the Covenant. Kai took it and was made part of the SPARTAN-III Alpha Company. He survived augmentation and was trained under Kurt-051 and Franklin Mendez, gaining their attention for his excellent sniping skills.



Kai went to receive his augmentations on the UNSC Hopeful in 2526. He was moved there by Pelican, sharing a transport with Carter-A259.
