'''Doctor Daniel Endesha''' was a scientist and a resident of [[New Mombasa]]. He was largely responsible for the management of the city's [[Superintendent]] [[Artificial intelligence|AI]].{{Ref/Reuse|ss}}

==Biography==
Daniel Endesha was the father of [[Sadie Endesha]]. When Sadie was a child, he programmed [[Vergil]], a subroutine of the [[Superintendent]], to take care of her.{{Ref/Reuse|ss}}

During the [[Battle of Mombasa]] on [[2552#October|October 20th, 2552]], Endesha was inside the Superintendent's data center, where he observed several [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] [[Huragok]] free [[Quick to Adjust|one of their companions]], which then started fixing the Superintendent. He was killed when the corrupt [[Kinsler|Commissioner Kinsler]] of the [[New Mombasa Police Department]] had the data center's fire extinguishing systems activated, flooding the facility with deadly [[argon]].{{Ref/Reuse|ss}} His body was later found by a corrupt cop sent to check on his status and the [[ODST]] [[Jonathan Doherty]]. Upon seeing Endesha's body, the cop attempted to kill Doherty to eliminate all witnesses, only to be killed in self-defense by the ODST.{{Ref/Reuse|datahive}}

In the years following the war, the [[Huragok]] [[Quick to Adjust]], merged with Endesha's Vergil subroutine, retained the protective instincts towards Sadie that Endesha had programed into Vergil. As a result, Sadie became his handler. While working with [[Alpha-Nine]] during the [[Created conflict]], Sadie displayed an understanding of AIs that came both from her own studies and what she learned from her father. After the [[Battle of Cassidy III]], Quick to Adjust told Sadie that her father would be proud of her as was the Huragok when Sadie started questioning herself.{{Ref/Novel|HNB}}{{Ref/Novel|HBadB}}

==Trivia==
*Dr. Endesha is voiced by [[Hakeem Kae-Kazim]],{{Ref/Game|H3ODST|[[Halo 3: ODST credits|credits]]}} who also provided the voice of [[Jorge-052]], [[Noble Team]]'s heavy weapons specialist, in ''[[Halo: Reach]]''.{{Ref/Game|HR|[[Halo: Reach credits|credits]]}}
*His body can be found by obtaining twenty-nine [[Audio log (Halo 3: ODST)|Audio logs]] and by following the [[Unidentified NMPD officer|lone NMPD officer]] through the level ''[[Data Hive]]''. The officer will eventually turn hostile, forcing the player to kill him. The final audio log can be found on the wall right next to the doctor's body.
*His model is the same as those of the Voi factory workers seen on the level ''[[The Storm]]'' in ''[[Halo 3]]''.
