Illustration of the Catalytic Thyroid Implant. [16] The Spartans' prowess was not lost on the Covenant, who came to fear, and in the case of the Sangheili, respect the Spartans as Demons. [57] Only a select few outsiders, including Dr. Halsey and Dj, are privy to some of the best-held secrets within the group. Any vehicle piloted by a Spartan gains an extra 15% to their defense and damage, with additional stat boosts for every upgrade the Spartan has.[89]. Though being missing in action since 2532 and discharged from service by ONI in 2546, Randall-037, now a Colonel of the Sedran Colonial Guard, participated in a mission to capture the smugglers of a highly dangerous element used as a weapon in a terrorist attack, and sacrificed himself to ensure the operation's success. With the Mjolnir armor, the Spartans would be the first major UNSC response to the alien threat. Only 33 survived the procedures without physiological deformities, of whom two would commit suicide in the following weeks upon encountering their flash clones. Spartan-III and Spartan-II's Augmentations were equally effective. By default they are equipped with a pair of submachine guns. Generation II of the ORION Project was initiated in 2511 as the best possible solution to end the widespread insurgency that raged throughout UNSC space. Among these are automated surgery suites, featured on Covenant ships to treat wounds received in combat,[19] and magnetic splints which are used to hold broken bones in place. Recommended coverage not to exceed 3% total bone mass because of significant white blood cell necrosis. This specialized version of the neural interface is implanted into the skull of a Spartan-II. Contents 1 History 1.1 Background 1.2 Creation 1.3 Training 1.4 Human-Covenant War 1.5 Post-war survivors Despite the impressive feats the surviving SPARTANs performed, many of the fourteen year old candidates died or "washed out" as a result of the augmentations. [85], Around 2537, however, enough candidates were within the right age range to begin a second class. Spartan-II is an acquired template gained during the Spartan Program. Every day the subject performs stretches, isometric exercises, light sparring drills and consumes five high-protein meals. After being transferred to highly covert ONI Kilo-Five unit in 2553, Naomi-010 continued to serve on highly classified operations as of 2558. When ONI discovered Randall in 2546, he accepted their offer to have his enhancements suppressed in exchange for being allowed to remain a civilian. This procedure produces a marked increase in visual perception. In exchange, they would receive a pardon from Thel 'Vadam for their actions. This allowed the creation of much larger numbers of supersoldiers than before, although the procedures still had to be performed at the onset of puberty. She was part of a group known a. [83] Halsey eventually gave up on Class II and left the program, after she judged the candidates to be of an inferior standard. Each Spartan is assigned to a different leader: Alice to Isabel, Douglas to Professor Anders, and Jerome to Captain Cutter. Rojka gave up his hatred and thirst for vengeance upon Gray Team and agreed to act as an envoy to the human population of the world for Akato 'Dakaj, the new ruling Kaidon of Rak. The Master Chief among a group of Marines. [56] Having been taught to refrain from overt emotional displays, the Spartan-IIs most commonly convey their emotions through subtle body language and cryptic gestures. [15] Further medical advances have been made in areas not directly related to physical performance but nonetheless improving humans' quality of life. Fred-104 with Olivia-G291 and Veta Lopis in Halo: Last Light. The Human-Covenant War marked a change in objectives for the program; originally intended to quell rebellions, the Spartans were now forced into battle against a superior opponent to the insurrectionists: the Covenant. Many of the enhancements were to the neurological and cognitive abilities of the individual,[2] although at least the Warrior-Servants' mutations also made them physically stronger and more robust. The rods and cones of the eye are light-sensitive receptors located in the back of the eye. 12% of subjects can contract Parkinson's Disease and Fletcher's Syndrome. Anecdotal evidence of marked increase in intelligence, memory, and creativity. that the true name of the "Engineer" species is. Physiological stress of the augmentations could have lead to cardiac arrest,[3] in addition to cross-chemical complications that could result in augmentation failure. The Prelates' augmentations allowed them to overcome the San'Shyuum's natural frailty caused by generations of inbreeding and granted them strength, speed and reaction times sufficient to best even Sangheili in combat. Their gains have attracted widespread attention in the hopes of improving human strength and endurance. The rank of the aforementioned Sangheili is not known. This new threat accelerated the Spartans' training to its final phase: Project MJOLNIR. The healing process takes anywhere from weeks to months, depending upon each individual subject's rate of recovery. Fred-104, Linda-058, John-117, and Joshua-029 wearing various iterations of the Mark IV armor. Although the subject is in a state of unconsciousness during the procedure, they may experience excruciating pain. Deceased Spartans are assumed to be officially listed missing in action or wounded in action, even if known with certainty to be KIA. [9][10], The SPARTAN-IV program was the first supersoldier project after ORION to use volunteering adult subjects, something that had been discarded in the previous programs due to the technological and psychological challenges involved. As the hormone is released into the body the pellet dissolves and is absorbed. [23] The augmentation procedures performed on the SPARTAN-IIs paved the way for Project CHRYSANTHEMUM and thusfor the "disposable" SPARTAN-IIIs. In the new DLC, Jerome is a leader himself, using Mark IV GEN2 armor obtained from Isabel and Hydra MLRS as a loadout, along with a new mech. However, the Spartans still suffer from the negative effects of exposure to space and require medical treatment directly after to recover. [87][notes 2]. As an idiosyncrasy of their warrior culture, the Sangheili view the notion of doctors as dishonorable. One of the differences between the two programs was the Catalytic Thyroid Implant that the S-IIs received that the S-IIIs did not. The hormone targets and stimulates the growth of fast and slow twitch muscle fibers, effectively producing significant gains in muscle mass. Of these, Serin-019 and Ralph-103 were maimed by the procedures. However, her father, an ORION Project member now known as "James James", killed the would-be kidnapper. SPARTAN-IIs would go on to play pivotal roles in the Battle of Earth, the Battle of Installation 05, the Onyx Conflict and the Battle of Installation 00. [8] Chemical augmentations have their own risks dependent upon the subject's genetic background and how they adjust to the alteration of cells and molecules and to a more physical point, tissue growth. In particular, the decision drew the anger of Admiral Margaret Parangosky, Commander in Chief of ONI, who interrogated Halsey after her capture and demanded to know her reasoning for the use of flash clones. Additionally, Linda-058 shot the pilots out of two Banshee fliers as she was hanging from a titanium cable that was attached to her arm and leg. The extent and severity of the augmentations likely left many scars. [37], In December 2559, Captain Thomas Lasky redeployed the rest of Blue Team on a separate operation of some kind as the Infinity prepared to deploy the Master Chief and the Weapon to Installation 07 to stop Cortana. [17], Due to the risky and dangerous nature of the augmentation procedures, many of the fourteen-year-old candidates died or "washed out" as their bodies rejected the modifications being made. Against the wishes of Vice Admiral Margaret Parangosky, Halsey sought to create Cortana to help them out. Basic performance-enhancing technologies have been commonplace among human militaries for centuries; however, extensive experimentation pushing the limits of the human body has historically been limited due to ethical concerns. The Mjolnir armor was created in parallel to the SPARTAN-II project and is the most technologically advanced piece of hardware in human hands. [48], However single-minded many outsiders view them as, the Spartan-IIs remain independent thinkers;[49] from early on, Dr. Halsey's intent was to mold the candidates into effective soldiers through "persuasion and acclimation" as opposed to the brainwashing suggested by some of her colleagues within ONI, believing that in order to be truly efficient the Spartans must be able to properly understand and embrace the significance of their mission. [8], Research on the SPARTAN-II program's augmentations began five years after the deactivation of the ORION Project. [16] Later in 2553, during the boarding of the Piety, Naomi-010defeated a Jiralhanae with a single uppercut, breaking its spine in the process. Really no. In. In 2547,[15] the SPARTAN-II program was revealed to the public in an effort to boost morale among the UNSC. He taught the Spartans how to kill, but at the same time he taught them the difference between right and wrong. A kick by John-117 flung one of the exoskeleton-clad men eight meters. John subsequently reunited with Blue Team who faced the Didact again shortly afterward; after defeating the Promethean for the second time,[28] the team continued to serve in the field in a number of classified operations. Dr. Halsey suspected this to be due to inexplicable, synergistic effects resulting from all the augmentations acting in concert. 300% increase in subject reflexes. Between 2511 and 2517, 150 five to six-year-old children were selected from near perfect psychological and genetic markers that were set in Dr. Catherine Halsey 's selection protocols. This is the GVWR, or Gross Vehicle Weight Rating, of the. I do not recall any information on the Alpha group, but I do know the Beta and Gamma groups had a 100% success rate for augmentations. This produces the most prolonged delay in the rest of the augmentation procedures as the subject's body begins to alter as a result of the previous procedure. [12][13], The San'Shyuum in the Covenant used genetic enhancement techniques to augment a number of San'Shyuum into elite supersoldiers known as Prelates. They can be built from a Barracks and are perhaps the most versatile units in the game. [31], A MJOLNIR-clad Cal-141 was capable of blocking a Jiralhanae Chieftain's gravity hammer swing with a single hand, dodging multiple swings from the Brute, using her enhanced strength to jump to great heights, and wounding the Chieftain with a few punches and kicks; she was furthermore capable of pulling an occupied ODST drop pod out of thick mud and throwing it dozens of meters. Only a small percentage of subjects survived the process and fully recovered. The Sangheili enter battle-meditation before completing the machine link protocols to control the pain, while Jiralhanae pilots embrace the interface burn to trigger their own focus. Due to their parents' augmentations, the Spartan 1.1s had to receive injections in order to ensure normal growth without defects. In the fighting game Dead or Alive 4, Nicole-458 is teleported back to the 21st-century aboard Nassau Station. The third goal was to substantially reduce the cost of conventional means of pacification. It can provide a Spartan with an incredible amount of protection and strength. [10] Kelly-087 was capable of running even faster than this speed. [7], As time went on, the side effects for successful subjects diminished either completely or to the point where it was considered mild. [6], Halsey was not satisfied with the project's original name of ORION Project, Generation II; thus, she renamed it out of personal preference, as well as to distance the project from the failures of ORION in the minds of the politico and military bureaucrats who controlled the project's budget. Mendez trained the Spartans until 2525 when, at the age of fourteen, they would go through the toughest part of their training: the biological augmentation procedures, which would kill 30 of the 75 conscripted children and cripple twelve others who would "wash out" of the SPARTAN-II program, going on to join the Office of Naval Intelligence. Featured. [30] During the Battle of Trove, the three members of Red Team (Jerome-092, Alice-130, and Douglas-042) defeated a force of over twenty Stealth Sangheili in close-quarters combat without sustaining any injuries themselves. [88], In 2552, Silver Team was sent to the Outer Colony Madrigal where the Covenant were attacking an Insurrectionist outpost. [14], The side effects of completing the augmentations vary, as the subject's brain relearns how to move their body with faster reflexes and stronger muscles. Suppressed sexual drive. [45] The information is not public knowledge as of 2558,[41][46] although some of the Spartan-IVs were made aware of their predecessors' origins. The children of the ORIONs are sometimes referred to as Spartan 1.1s, reflecting the retroactive application of the SPARTAN-I moniker. The subject could have experienced bleeding eyes, intense pain, constant headaches, and aches in the bones. Each procedure was marked with its own unbearable pain. An illustration showing the arm before augmentation and after. [43], Three discharged Spartans have had the effects of their augmentations reduced through unknown means. The subject may have experienced neurological confusion that included falling over, exaggerated reflexes, and difficulty grabbing and holding objects. She followed up her maneuver by using the Mongoose as an improvised hammer, smashing three Grunts into the ground, pulverizing them into "explosions of purple blood", until the ATV's "..wheels had all bounced off, the chassis warped, and finally snapped". A member of Gray Team during the Battle of the Rubble in Halo: The Cole Protocol. This narrowed the candidates down to children who would be raised and taught in the art of warfare and military values, from a young age. Later during the Human-Covenant war, while in her Mark V MJOLNIR armor, Kelly-087's top speed was 62km/h or 38.5mph. One of the most notable candidates, six-year-old Yasmine Zaman, was abducted and replaced by a flash clone. Detail of the surgical scars on the forearms of a SPARTAN-II, in this case John-117. They possess numerous unique internal habits and signals conveyed through simple gestures or statements, making interactions among their group largely indecipherable to outsiders. That is. And the Infinity wasn't even complete when the war ended, so the idea that the UNSC was suddenly going to pack millions of people into it and run away is similarly . [9], To prepare the subject for the augmentation procedure, the subject's head is shaved and incision vectors are lasered onto the subject's body. Surgeon Reacts to Spartan II. Like the augmentations performed for the Spartan-IIs and the improved procedures utilized in the subsequent SPARTAN-III program, the Spartan-IVs undergo a series of procedures to enhance their physical capabilities and to wear Mjolnir powered armor. [32] As he was trying to delete Gamma Station's navigation data during the Fall of Reach, a MJOLNIR clad John-117 physically stalemated a Sangheili in a zero-g grapple and wrestled it for control over a plasma pistol; he successfully killed it by striking it in the face with his elbow and shooting it with the plasma pistol. Only three can be deployed for an army but they do not take up population. The SPARTAN-II candidates being taught by Dj in Halo: The Fall of Reach - The Animated Series. [58] Although the Spartan-IIs often have difficulty socializing with baseline humans outside situations of a strictly military nature, they are rather gregarious among themselves and habitually cluster together while out of the battlefield, commonly engaging in activities such as playing cards, exercising together, reading, or maintaining their personal equipment. The surgeon performs a procedure on the capillaries, the smallest of the body's blood vessels, to reverse the direction of blood flow in each capillary to boost the blood flow beneath the rods and cones of the subject's retina. INTRODUCTION Can you be a Spartan? The following is the list of all known Spartan-II subjects conscripted in 2517. Research on the then-named ORION Generation II augmentations began five years after the deactivation of the ORION Project. Originally envisioned as the second generation of the ORION Project under "Generation-II ORION"[3] and "The ORION Project Generation Two",[4] SPARTAN-II would be the first in the series to meld advanced exoskeleton technology with the soldiers' superior physiques.[5][6]. A 14 year old John-117 benching 495lbs. [90] They count as hero units and therefore cannot be killed, only knocked out and slowly healing until they are revived. Meanwhile, then-eighteen year old civilian scientist Dr. Catherine Halsey had been improving upon Carver's report on her own. Illustration of the Carbide Ceramic Ossification. The first bio-engineering protocol was established to help humans adjust to long duration spaceflight and different planetary environmental conditions, and subsequently for interplanetary war. Five percent (5%) of test subjects experience a fatal cardiac volume increase. Of the 150 children considered for the program, only 75 were conscripted. [8][9], Only a few months after augmentation procedures, the SPARTAN-IIs were noted of being capable of running at speeds exceeding 55 km/h or 34.2mph. [21], As a crude replication of the technologies used to forge the Spartans, human Insurrectionists use "rumbledrugs" which degenerate the user's body but grant them superhuman abilities for a short time, potentially giving them a fighting chance against Spartans. The Forerunners used artificially-induced mutations consisting of a combination of genetic engineering, gene therapy and biochemical manipulation to custom-tailor an individual's body to a form considered suited for their social standing and field of work in a rate. The subject may experience neurological confusion such as falling over, exaggerated reflexes, and problems grabbing or holding onto an object. During the Battle of the Rubble in 2535, Adriana-111, while clad in Mark IV armor, used her enhanced strength to lift a 1077 kilogram (2370lb)[Note 4] Mongoose by the handle bars and ram several Grunts with it. Chemical augmentations work on a molecular level by targeting molecules within the body and then altering them to begin a growth process of targeted tissues. The beginnings of the program can be traced back to 2321, when the Office of Naval Intelligence began to build upon bioengineering protocols developed during the Interplanetary Wars. [22], An illustration detailing the muscular augmentations performed on a Spartan-II's arm, A screen monitoring Carter-A259's CHRYSANTHEMUM augmentations, SPARTAN-IV Sarah Palmer undergoing her augmentations, An overview of the Spartan-IVs' augmentations, Prelate Tem'Bhetek, an augmented San'Shyuum, https://www.halopedia.org/index.php?title=Biological_augmentation&oldid=1531962. John-117 after going through the augmentation procedures. [15] In the same battle, Kelly-087 engaged three Sangheili Major/Minor Elites in hand-to-hand combat, snapping the wrist of one Elite, taking his energy sword, and cutting two other approaching Elites in half with a single swing. [4] Early analysis concluded that next-generation candidates must have "more malleable, robust DNA structure and repair enzymes," this being based on the fundamental flaw of the augmentation procedures performed on the ORION soldiers. Are Spartan-II Augmentations Possible? [43] Admiral Parangosky planned to unveil the SPARTAN-II program's classified aspects to the UEG defense committee by early 2553,[44] although any information on the Spartan-IIs origins remained unconfirmed among military personnel as of 2555. Alteration of bioelectrical nerve transduction to shielded electronic transduction. The SPARTAN-II augmentation procedures were a series of biochemical and biomechanical manipulations applied to SPARTAN-II Conscripts at the onset of puberty. The ORION augmentations included enhancements to muscle density, lung capacity, vision, hearing and balance. Examples of this include Kurt-051's ribs being broken by a Hunter's shield strike,[25] Otto-031 breaking his ankle upon falling from a great height,[26] and Douglas-042's left shoulder being broken by Atriox. Following the Battle of Installation 04, the survivors returned to Reach and were able to rendezvous with the remaining Spartans. Once the subject has been sedated, he or she is transported from the pre-op wing of the facility to another area where the surgical procedures are performed. Chief Petty Officer Franklin Mendez states after the augmentations that the SPARTANs will only get better as they adjust to the augmentation. assistance. Two escaped aboard the UNSC Pillar of Autumn, one of whom was place in cryostasis aboard the ship after sustaining life-threatening injuries during the battle on Gamma Station. In order to pay homage to the sacrifice of the ORION project, she chose to call the project SPARTAN-II. [16], Following the Human-Covenant War any sufficiently wealthy private party could replicate the effects of the Spartan augmentations. While civilian applications for such technologies do exist, their obvious military advantages quickly saw them harnessed for the purposes of warfare. [88], In Halo Wars, Spartan-IIs are infantry units for the UNSC faction. The first and most controversial was the subjects themselves, who were selected by a gene-candidate pool, and must fit into a certain age restriction protocol. Carver's findings. [41] However, as of 2553, there were pervasive rumors among the UNSC military that the Spartans had been kidnapped as six-year-old children and replaced by flash clones. [11] The only other copy of these records is in the possession of Admiral Margaret Parangosky. The thirty-three SPARTAN-IIs that were able to accomplish all this are without any serious physiological or mental instabilities.[21]. Her independent conclusions predicted an even darker future than Carver's model, with UNSC inaction against the rebel leadership resulting in a minimum of thirty years of war and five billion dead; the maximum was a conflict of indeterminate length potentially leading to the downfall of human civilization. A SPARTAN-II's reaction time, while impossible to chart accurately, is estimated to be twenty milliseconds. A Spartan-II candidate who died during augmentations. [84] The Office of Naval Intelligence would ultimately cancel Class II due to the lack of sufficient candidates. Yes, in the Spartan II augmentations 33 Spartans lived, 30 died, and 12 were left crippled and disfigured. Each Spartan now uses a different weapon: Douglas-042 wields the rocket launcher, Alice-130 wields the machine gun turret and Jerome-092 wields the Spartan Laser when fully upgraded; however, all of them start with dual wielded M6C magnums and the "Spartan Slam" ability. The reaction time increase for example is closer to 1000% and that's even before Spartan time kicks in. Had this been in the discipline of a bicep curl, a 3x coefficient would be considerably superhuman, and more aligned with their subsequent feats of physical strength in the excerpt. A Spartan is equipped with energy shields, can wield different weapons, command friendly vehicles, hijack enemy ones, and gain up to 14 veterancy points while other units cap at 3. Kelly-087, Kurt-051, and another Spartan during the Onyx Conflict in Halo: Ghosts of Onyx. Only Dr. Halsey had secret files that contained the full names of all the Spartans on Reach; unfortunately, the records were destroyed after the planet was glassed. In the years following the deactivation of the original ORION Project in 2506[8] the effectiveness of small special forces combating the Insurrectionists became too difficult for the UNSC to manage. Halo: Reach. Alteration of bioeletrical nerve transduction to shielded electronic transduction. The carbide ceramic ossification is said to feel like the subject's bones are breaking, and as if their marrow is made of glass and is being shattered. Answer (1 of 5): Actually, we know of a couple of Spartans from both the Spartan-I and Spartan-II programs who had kids. All Spartans receive upgrades equally for Tier 1 and 3 but only in Tier 2 will each Spartan receive their personal weapon based on the Leader that the player picked. [6] As such, the Spartans possess a profound understanding of their role as weapons and the weight of the life imposed on them. Rather than be buried or cremated, the bodies of the deceased were cryogenically preserved with the hopes of one day reviving these candidates. The Class of 2537 has not been referenced in any official media barring the quasi-canonical, Last edited on February 8, 2023, at 23:00, Seal of the President of the United States, Halo: The Fall of Reach - The Animated Series, Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe, https://www.halopedia.org/index.php?title=SPARTAN-II_program&oldid=1569384, Class I: 75 before augmentation; 33+ after augmentation. [10] Jerome-092 demonstrated this on the Banished ship Enduring Conviction making light work of the sangheili in the area with limited visibility. [14] The Spartans continuously proved highly effective against all threats; their heroic rearguard and delaying actions saved countless human lives from the genocidal Covenant onslaught. [11] The SPARTAN-IVs' augmentations also include several new procedures, including various improvements to the subject's internal organs. The injuries also gave 'Rdomnai a lust for battle and vengeance, both of which completely outweighed his own pride in his own Sangheili culture. Most of them do not hold grudges over their abduction and treatment, instead having come to embrace their lives as a Spartan as both a necessity and something they were born to do. [50], The Spartan-IIs' training emphasized dedication to one's duty as well as winning at any cost, values most of the active Spartan-IIs remain committed to. Each procedure is marked by a particular type of excruciating pain. She stood 6' 3" (191cm) tall in her mid-forties,[44] though whether this was due to the lingering effects of the catalytic thyroid implant or her own genetics is unclear. The Spartan IIs were trained for 6 years with an extra year after augmentation, and were pushed to the limits of human ability but were intended to be capable of being Officers, and taught education as well as tactics. Suppressed sexual drive. Contents 1 Introduction 2 Augmentations 3 Effects 3.1 Results 4 Gallery 5 Appearances 6 Sources Introduction [7] Former ORION project member Avery Johnson remembers the experience as being agonizing filled with confusing, hormone-inducing rages. [47], Randall-037 emerged from the augmentation procedures unscathed and served on the frontlines until he went missing in action in 2532. [22], Only a few months after augmentation procedures, the SPARTAN-IIs were capable of running at speeds exceeding 55km/h or 34.2mph. [23] The members of Gray Team were left drifting in space after their latest operation in late 2552 and went to cryo-sleep. [22], Despite the carbide ceramic ossification rendering the Spartan-IIs' bones "virtually unbreakable",[6] they can still be broken by extreme physical trauma. [5] The next was memory and cognitive enhancements; these were rejected based on the mental instabilities that could occur. The project was implemented by the Office of Naval Intelligence's Section Three under the supervision of Dr. Catherine Halsey.[2]. Heights exceeding two meters were practically ubiquitous among them and weights in excess of 200 pounds were common. However, Dr. Halsey hoped that some might be rehabilitated and enter service as fully functional Spartans.[6]. [13], To marginalize the civilian lives they had once led, their names became a combination of their given names and numbered service tag, with family names being discarded. Human biochemical experiments and enhancement procedures have been a part of society dating back to the 20th Century; their gains have attracted widespread attention in the hopes of improving human strength and endurance. John-117 leading Silver Team in Halo: The Television Series. [24][Note 2], The SPARTAN-IIs were capable of lifting at least three times their body weight without the aid of their MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor[Note 3] when they were 14 years old. [6] The project was created with several goals in mind. [37], In 2553, during the boarding of the Piety, Naomi-010, while clad in Mark VII armor, defeated a Jiralhanae with a single uppercut, breaking its spine in the process. Blue Team during the Battle of Circinius IV in Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn. In order to preserve the program's secrecy, the children were replaced by flash clones, which would die soon thereafter due to numerous medical complications associated with flash-cloning an entire human being. The SPARTAN-II program, Class I was the first iteration of the SPARTAN programs and the first class of the Spartan-II program, an effort to produce elite soldiers through mechanical and biological augmentation. After each meal, the subject must report to the medical bay to receive a series of vitamin and mineral injections.[15]. Protein complex is injected intramuscularly to increase tissue density and decrease lactase recovery time.
