PLEASE READ!!!

NEW UPDATE ON ORTUS VITA FOR MAY 29th:

As of this evening on May 29th, i've reviewed each character thoroughly and decided on the best fits for Ortus Vita. Mainly I picked characters on either their complementing of others (such as Simon-G294 and Rory Jammer) or the filling of a particular niche (FWH's Mark Daniels). For those who weren't picked, i'm sorry that I wasn't able to pick you. However, note that I may refer back to your submission in the future for cameo characters!

For those who were picked, i've given my recommendations on how you can fit both into Ortus Vita and the Tonyverse better. However, the majority of the recommendations were rank related though some can deal very directly with the plot of the story. If you have an issue with any of my recommendations, please contact me through my talk page or on the IRC and we'll see what I can compromise on.

I can't wait to start conversing with all of you and beginning to form Ortus Vita together into the first "interactive novel"! Thank you and have a great day!


Ortus Vita cover
"Your mission, presuming you'll except it, will take you far beyond Colonial, Alliance, or organized spacial territory Lieutenant. You'll be tasked with the rescue and recovery of one of our operatives, codenamed 'GUNSLINGER.' Complete this mission by any means necessary with whomever you seem fit to tag along. Good luck and God Speed, Lieutenant Cairns."
―Lord Hood, 2555

Halo: Ortus Vita is an upcoming story planned for this summer once we're all done with our studies. Its loosely set in the Tonyverse and doesn't dive into too many areas of my storyline, rather spreading its wings and going off in a different direction.

Set during the early years of the post-war era in late 2555, Ortus Vita revolves around SPARTAN-III and former Headhunter, Lieutenant William Cairns (SPARTAN-B101 or "DIGGER"). Cairns is an Australian-Terran who excels at intelligence gathering and hunting, lending well to the stealth tactics used by his former teammate 1stLt Tony Jackson (B312). Now operating with Joint Special Operation Command's covert DEVGRU ("Sayeret Lahav") squadron, Cairns often hunts down rebel leaders, financiers, and sympathizers, as well as the common gangster and thug. Ordered back to Earth by Lord Terrence Hood after a successful mission on New Victoria, Cairns will be given his most important mission yet.

Now this is where my fellow writers (that's you!) on Halo Fanon come in play. I plan to make this story have a very Mass Effect, Firefly, or Star Wars (original trilogy) feel with plenty of exploration, action, character development, and emotion. This of course requires a kickass cast of characters to aid our protagonist William Cairns in this important mission. From the muscle-bound hardasses, to highly-skilled tech experts, and holy medical practitioners, anyone and EVERYONE would prove vital on this mission. And don't worry, your characters can be military, civilian, and even criminals. As for you Sangheili, Kig-yar, etc. fanboys/girls out there...you can come along too.

So, you interested at all? Good good. Now if you happen to be dead serious about submitting a character, feel free to add your name and information below (a template will be provided for you) and anyone is welcome to add their creation. Of course, I will be the ultimate deciding factor in choosing who will be included in the story or not. As you will be creating a character, you will have plenty of say of what happens to them, how they do stuff, etc. throughout the writing process, so make sure you are dedicated to the assignment!

Thank you and have a great day!

Character submission

How to

If your considering on submitting a character for Ortus Vita, feel free to copy the template below and place it in the appropriate field! Portraits of your submitted character are welcome, but have it proportional to your written submission as to not flood over into other characters; 200px is normally the sweetspot.

Try to keep the number of SPARTAN's (maybe one more will be considered on being submitted) and extraterrestrials to a minimum. This is still relatively soon after the end of the Great War, so no Mass Effect 2 team where half of the team members are non-Human.

CommanderTony

Tony-B312 userprofile

DIGGER in battle armor.

Username — CommanderTony
Character name — Lieutenant William "Digger" Cairns (SPARTAN-B101)
Species — Human
Occupation — Military (Special warfare, intelligence, etc.)
Specialties — Human and Signals Intelligence, marksmanship/hunting, and driving.
Appearance — Toned figure, brown eyes, black hair, light brown skin tone, and carries himself professionally.
Background — A Terran, Lieutenant Cairns was born on April 29th, 2530 in Melbourne, Australia to a Naval Intelligence analyst and a housemother. Orphaned at age 6 due to the death of his father, William’s mother fell into a bout of depression and sent Cairns to live with his aunt and uncle in North America. Struggling with the death of his hero father, Cairns often wandered out into the wilderness and wouldn’t come back home for days, with his family too busy to notice.

Because of his recent behavior during SPARTAN training, Cairns was chosen for the highly classified “Headhunters” platoon and unbeknownst to him, was pared with Jackson for long range reconnaissance, sabotage and assassination duties. For four years, the two friends comprised the self-titled “Pegasus Team” operating deep behind Covenant lines. In 2548, the two were eventually split apart and sent to different assignments; Jackson opted for Starfighter training with Cairns choosing to fill an instructor spot with Gamma Company back on Onyx.

RichardRHunt

Username — RichardRHunt
Character name — Doctor Rory Jammer
Species — Human
Occupation — Civilian (Mathematician, ONI, occasionally corporate interests, etc.)
Specialties —Computer programming and Hacking, basic weapons skills (Pistols and Submachine Guns) some Improvised weapons
Appearance —Slightly heavyset, green eyes, brown hair, light skin, often awkward in conversation
Background — Doctor Jammer was born Rory Knight on December 2, 2527 in Irvine, URNA to a nurse and insurance salesman. Discovering his skills at the age of 10, by hacking the Los Angeles Superintendent Network, while he was eventually caught, the charges were dropped after some of the scientists working on the LA Superintendent noticed that he don't hurt the system, in fact he improved the processing power of the SI by 150% and made it less susceptible to shutdowns.

In 2543, he had graduated from Caltech at the age of 15. He was immediately recruited by ONI, given his special skill set. In 2549, he won the Turing Prize, the most prestigious prize in computer science and engineering, making him the second-youngest winner of the prize. He jokes about petitioning the Nobel Foundation into creating a prize for Mathematics, however he knows that it is only something to not take seriously. Because of a certain proof he wrote, the Forerunner Complex on Bouvet Island was unlocked, and he, himself was recruited into the project to analyze the findings of the Bouvet Island excavation.

Tuckerscreator

Alone Minor

Honcha seeking cover after the Battle of Bethany.

Username — Tuckerscreator
Character name — Unggoy Minor "Ten" Honcha (U3-M0922)
Species — Unggoy
Occupation — Military (Scout and Infantry.) Civilian (Land and livestock slave farmer)
Specialties — Reconnaissance and assault, driving, heavy lifting and herding, some medical experience, HEART!
Appearance — Dark brown skin, reddish eyes, numerous burns and scars, short height, withdrawn and shy demeanor.
Background — Honcha was born and lived on Balaho until he was captured at the age of four, when his tribe was sold by the Covenant into slavery. He became an indentured farmer under the estate of the Sangheili Zamam clan, and being the only survivor of the original ten Unggoy he was bought with, had to bear the burden of completing their entire workload. After accidentally injuring the headwife of the clan, he was punished with anti-rebel police work, and after one year of slavery was drafted into the Covenant military.

He and his clan fought on Draco III for the Covenant Army, but Honcha was separated from them in battle and forced to go into the general forces. He spent the next two years of his military career fighting for survival in the infantry, missing death nearly dozens of times, whether by gunshot, attacking UNSC, tsunami, suffocation, and even Spartan. He eventually became an unofficial member of a Special Operations Squad, the Unggoy fireteam "The Brown Bellies", and at the Battle of High Charity joined the Covenant Loyalists.
Other — Carrier of "S-I Neural Anomaly J20114", also known as "Boren's Syndrome".

Spartan-091

Character name — First Lieutenant Miles Jaeger
Species — Human
Occupation — Military, Orbital Drop Shock Trooper
Specialties — Section Leader, Marksman, Field Medic
Appearance — Light brown hair "high-and-tight", brown eyes, tall, athletic build.
Background — Miles Jaeger was an ODST sergeant in the 10th Shock's Alpha Company, and was appointed the leader of second platoon during the Battle of Manheim because of the heavy casualties suffered by the unit during that operation. He participated in several crucial missions in the Second Battle for Earth, including the clearing of the Chicago Industrial Zone and the rescue of a UNSCSOCOM detachment in Cambridge, Brittania. Because of his heroism in these actions, he was allowed to keep his brevet commission of Second Lieutenant. Miles was a close friend of SPARTAN-091, and tended to look after the supersoldier during his leaves on Earth.

In the aftermath of the Great War, Miles has retained his commission and been promoted, in fact, to a section leader. He is in charge of a roughly platoon-sized group of ODSTs which can be deployed in an as-needs basis to suppress Insurrectionist activity, repel Covenant Remnants, or recover lost technology, depending upon what UNSC High Command requires.

Recommendations
  • For this story only, it would be preferred if he was a Second Lieutenant or any mid-ranking NCO rank.

Stel' Vadam

File:Holy crap.jpg

Stel 'Vadam doing what he does best - blowing something up

Username — Stel' Vadam
Character name — Sangheili General Stel 'Vadam

Species — Sangheili
Occupation —Soldier
Specialties —Explosives, Stealth, Assault
Appearance —Prosthetic left arm, scars under eyes and on top of mandibles showing signs of considerable battle, genetically mismatched eyes, muscular stature, but slightly shorter than some Sangheili. Uses membrane to cover the robotic nature of left arm.
Background — A battle-hardened veteran of the Human-Covenant War, Stel 'Vadam is a deadly master of stealth and keen with a blade. An extremely deadly adversary, he is known for his miscolored eyes, a very unique occurrence in Sangheili. More or less, Stel is widely known for being Thel 'Vadam's brother, not just in combat, but also in blood.

Stel is also known to be experienced in the use of explosive weaponry, so may come in use if an armored vehicle or large amount of soldiers getting in the way. He is also equipped with his signature weapon, an Energy Sword, and Stel has considerable practice in the arts of the sword, so may come of close-combat use as well.
Other — Must keep watchful eye on this one. Prone to disobeying orders...if he isn't the one giving them that is.

Recommendations
  • Considering the highly volatile climate this mission is taking place in, a Sangheili General wouldn't be the best fit for a purely covert mission through Insurrectionist, Covenant Remnant, etc. territory. Could you reduce him in rank to a maximum rating of a high Major or equivalent?

Spartan 112

Ushran

Username — Spartan 112
Character name — Special Warfare Operator Ushran 'Sojam
Species — Sangheili
Occupation — Special Warfare Operator, Colonial Republics
Specialties — Hand to hand combat, infiltration, tracking
Appearance — Dark tan skin, red-orange eyes, average height and build, stern demeanor.
Background — The son of a sailor, Ushran 'Sojam was born and raised on Sangheilios, the homeworld of his species. Raised in a common home, Ushran had little connection with his mother. As a child he gained the friendship of two other Sangheili, his cousin and the daughter of a Vadam noble, whom were close allies with the Sojam. He was conscripted into the Covenant military at sixteen, and graduated with honors.

During the Human-Covenant War (known to the Covenant as the War of Righteous Cleansing), Ushran would fight in many of the wars greatest battles, such as Paris IV and Reach. During the war he caught the eye the Imperial Special Operations. He continued to serve the Covenant until the Great Schism, where he and other Sangheili revolted against their replacement by the Jiralhanae. After the Schism, Ushran and his unit were transferred to the command of the new Colonial Republics. Other — This Ushran will be separate from the one being used in the Necros Timeline.

Athena32

Michael Robson

Username — Athena32
Character name — Gunnery Sergeant Michael Robson
Species — Human
Occupation — Orbital Drop Shock Trooper
Specialties —orbital insertion, recconnaissance, all-round helljumper awesomeness
Appearance —Tall, short brown hair, brown eyes, heavy build
Background — A veteran ODST with almost two decades combat experience, Robson is a hardened, intelligent, efficient soldier. First seeing combat in 2539 at the Battle of Orchid IV, he saw action in dozens of theatres against the Covenant including the Battle of Miridem, Battle of Adrastos, Siege of Paris IV, Fall of Reach and the Battle of Earth. Although serving admirably through his entire career, his most recognised and distinguished actions occurred during the Battle of Sydney on Earth in late 2552.

Robson was unwaveringly loyal to the UNSC and, although later in his career increasingly questioning his past and present actions, never let this interfere with his performance. Often presenting a stern exterior, in reality Robson was a deeply emotional, empathetic and spiritual person, which was affected by years of watching his species slaughtered whilst barely surviving himself. Reluctant to attach himself to any individual, particularly after the deaths of several close friends during the Battle of Sydney, Robson's empathetic side was rarely revealed even to the few he trusted. This contrasted starkly with his sadistic fascination with watching his enemy die; sometimes going out of his way to prolong their deaths.
Other —Robson is the author's main character in Halo: Heroes All; take a look to properly get a sense of his character, as well as for a cracking good read.

Recommendations
  • Seeing how AR's Chief Warrant Officer has a better old war veteran mentality going on, I think being a more junior NCO would fit the spirituality of your ODST. A better fit would be something like Sergeant or Staff Sergeant.

Actene

Galactic Simon

Username — Actene
Character name — Simon-G294
Species —Human
Occupation — Ex-military, criminal
Specialties — Survival, stealth, some electronics knowledge.
Appearance — Tangled black hair, grey eyes, deep scar across forehead (usually covered by bandages), heavy scarring on chest.
Background — Once infamous for his low performance ratings as a SPARTAN-III, Simon-G294 is now remembered for being the first S-III to desert and turn on the UNSC. Stranded on Mamore during the final year of the Great War, he fell in with a group of urchins and fought alongside them against the UNSC during the Insurrection's stubborn efforts to achieve planetary independence. Conditioned to hate the government he had been raised to serve by witnessing the deaths of his friends during the fighting, he eventually committed himself fully to the Insurrectionist cause and participated in both actions against the UNSC and war crimes against civilians. Eventually exposed as a traitor to the UNSC and betrayed by his Insurrectionist masters, he disappeared and is presumed dead by both sides.

He now ekes out a living within the underworld of human society, doing whatever he deems necessary to survive and burying his guilt and uncertainty under a selfish, cynical shell.
Other — If his Insurrectionist backstory remains unchanged, he is also in possession of the Insurrectionist smart-AI Diana. Don't know whether this is too advanced for the Tonyverse Innies, so I'm willing to make any changes that the different universe requires.

Actene sig2

Character name — David Kahn
Species —Human
Occupation — Assassin, mercenary
Specialties — Target elimination, Marksmanship, Close Combat (armed and unarmed).
Appearance — Grey hair, blue eyes, powerful build.> Background — One of the few truly successful freelance killers to open shop since the end of the Great War, David Kahn has made a name for himself in the UEG's criminal underworld for his lethal skills and ability to kill anyone he is hired to bring down. He mainly finds himself employed by the Insurrection and the various criminal organizations that have sprung up since the end of the war, as ONI already possesses its own small army of highly lethal killers and has no need of contract killers like himself. Wanted for the assassination of several political figures while in the employ of the Insurrection, Kahn has nevertheless managed to stay both in business and ahead of the law.
Other — As per the above, might not be the best focal character material but he's still the most badass character I have on the site. I wouldn't even mind if he wound up as a minor antagonist so long as he didn't wind up going out like a chump.

Character name — Cassandra-G006
Species —Human
Occupation — Ex-military
Specialties — Extensive combat medical knowledge.
Appearance — Brown hair, brown eyes.> Background — Always prefering to help rather than to hurt, Cassandra-G006 is an oddity amongst most Spartans in that she is a far better medic than she is a fighter. The daughter of a planetary crime lord, she was inducted into Gamma Company and fought in some of the most crucial battles of the Human-Covenant War. Some months after the war, she was caught up in fellow Spartan Simon-G294's escape from both the UNSC and Insurrection and has since been cut off from the UNSC military. Having parted ways with Simon, she now utilizes her medical knowledge wherever it is needed and now wonders whether she should return to the service of the government that raised and trained her.

She is technically guilty of desertion.
Other — Might not make a good focal character, but could be used as a tertiarry character (Star Wars and Mass Effect are full of those).

Recommendations
  • Seeing how both of your other characters know Cassandra, would it be possible for her to be a low-ranking Hospital Corpsman? Petty Officer Third Class or Second Class would be preferred.
  • Also for Simon, as I stated on the IRC, I think he would complement the personality and good nature of RRH's Rory Jammer.

Spartan G-23

Gamma SPARTAN

Username — Spartan G-23
Character name — Petty Officer First Class, James-G023
Species — Human, augmented
Occupation — SPARTAN-III Commando (former), ONI Assassin
Specialties — Close-Quarters; Hand-to-Hand Combat
Appearance — Short brown hair, blue eyes
Background — An orphan like may of the other SPARTAN-IIIs, James grew up without a family and a hatred of the Covenant. After serving in the closing years of the Great War as the leader of his team, as well as against what was left of the Covenant Loyalists, James was pulled away from his few surviving teammates to become an assassin for the Office of Naval Intelligence. Dealing extra-judiciary punishment against the enemies of ONI and the UNSC, James has no qualms about torturing/murdering anyone surrounding his targets, including friends and family.
Other —I originally made it so that his character was already involved in hunting down rebels, pirates, and whatnot, so many things regarding your project can easily be worked into the character's history.

Shivly

DanielBOE

Username — Shivly
Character name — Captain, Daniel Funderburg
Species —Human.
Occupation —UNSC Orbital Drop Shock Trooper
Specialties —High Precision Weaponry, Camouflage, Field Craft, Infiltration, Reconnaissance, Observation, Urban Warfare, Jungle Warfare.Long Ranged Assault.
Appearance —Tall, Short brown hair, Blue Eyes, Muscular Build
Background — Daniel was raised primarily without a father from the age of Five and up. He went through a very tough military school life, and UNSC JROTC program, that affirmed his sense of pride in the Military, promoting his joining into the United Nation Space Command Marine Corps. The day he turned seventeen his father and he went to the recruiting center and singed his Enlistment papers, all without a second thought. He had a easy go at Boot, but his Time at Camp Insertion Physically altered him from the average build, to being more muscular than ever before. After his training in Camp Insertion he opted to go into Scout Snipers School,where he learned all the skills he ever needed to be as deadly accurate, as he was hidden. These were skills that made him very essential in all of the operations and battles he fought in. He went on to fight in the Battle of Jericho, where he saved Michael Robson life, then to the Battle of Paris IV, Reach, and then the First and Second battles of Earth. Being injured by the Covenant in most of the battles he fought in he has earned Four Purple Hearts.

Recommendations
  • Given his personality and lack of "battle scars", I think he would either be a good Lance Corporal or Corporal.
  • The ODST Sniper concept is a bit too overused, especially so far in Ortus Vita. Would you mind him just being an excellent and well respected Fleet Marine sniper?

117649AR

Username - 117649AR
Character name - Chief Warrant Officer (CW5) Lee, Justin P.
Species - Human
Occupation - Military (Officer By Warrant: Infantry, Special Warfare)
Specialties - Marksmanship, Close Quarters Combat, Hunting
Appearance - Toned figure, accentuated by ORION genetic enhancements, brown eyes, black (dark brown) hair shaven in a strict buzz-cut. Light stubble, numerous scars, slight recurring twitch of the jaw. Korean (Mongoloid Asiatic), thousand-yard stare.
Background - J.P. Lee, born Justin Park Lee, is a veteran of both the Insurrection and the Human-Covenant War, having served as an infantryman since initial enlistment in early 2485. Frequently ferried to and from insurgent and rebel hot zones across UEG space from UCMB graduation through his tours with the élite Army Ranger Corps, he gradually gathered experience and skills that would eventually qualify him for induction into the then-newly re-activated ORION Programme in 2500. This would set the stage for a permanent military career, and Lee would go on to participate in major battles and operations against Rebel, and later Covenant and Flood, forces throughout the early to mid 2500s.

Decades of warfare and continuous mental and physical trauma have inevitably taken their toll however, and both an outwardly jovial demeanor in informal settings and a professional demeanor in combat serve to effectively mask seemingly ceaseless inner conflicts between loyalty to humanity, and disdain for the increasingly hedonistic and indifferent nature of the civilian populace he has been sworn to defend.

SPARTAN-118

Helo-BSG

Leonardo Simmons during the Battle of Reach, 2552.

Username — SPARTAN-118
Character name — Lieutenant Simmons, Leonardo (UNSC Navy)
Species — Human
Occupation — Logistician; investigator within the Office of Investigations
Specialties — Logistical matters, planning, briefing,
Appearance — Short and thin, but somewhat toned. Closely cut brown hair, blue eyes.
Background — Formerly an senior non-commissioned officer within the Orbital Drop Shock Troopers, Leonardo "Leo" Simmons received an ONI field commission to the grade of Ensign during the Battle of Sydney. However, as a result of a nasty falling out between him and his superior officer, he was transferred to the Office of Investigations (after receiving MP training at Marine Corps Base Quantico. He also became highly adept at logistics management out of necessity, given a lack of loogisticians within the OI.
Other — As a result of his nasty falling out with ONI in general, he harbors an intense dislike of the "spooks" and their cloak and dagger activities.

Recommendations
  • Considering i'm going to have your Lieutenant as both the pilot of the ship and the lead pilot for it's contingent of dropships, i'll allow him to keep his present rank.
  • However, since that will go on, would you also add in an inclusion of a prior history (good or bad) between him and Lieutenant Cairns (B101)? Thanks!

FightWithHonor

MDaniels

Mark Daniels at work, c2551.

Username — FWH
Character name — Mark Daniels
Species — Human
Occupation — Handler, ONI Directed Activities Division
Specialties — Data analysis, operative management
Appearance — Average height, appearance. Brown hair. Known to wear glasses.
Background — Not every agent is an operator, a fact Daniels has become frustratingly familiar with during his years with. Working behind the scenes, he has been just another cog in the apparatus of the UNSC intelligence community, briefing operatives, planning missions and crunching intel. Quiet, reserved and utterly focused, he has little idea of what is around the corner. This newest assignment will be his toughest yet.

Cool. I'll love to help but I have two questions. Do you have to be in Tonyverse to submit a character and is this basically a roleplay? — Nanosoldier

Hmmm, very interesting, Tony. I like the idea of recruiting squad members, very similar to the Mass Effect series. Very cool. I'm considering making an entirely character specifically created for this story and not set my own universe like most of mine.
