Warrant Officer Emile-A239 was a SPARTAN-III commando of the UNSC Naval Special Warfare Command, attached to Special Warfare Group Three of the UNSC Army.[3] He fought as part of NOBLE Team with the call sign Noble Four, during the Fall of Reach in 2552.[4][5]
Biography[edit]
Early life and military career[edit]
Emile was born in Luxor on Eridanus II in 2523. When he was very young, his parents were killed during Insurrection activity. Subsequently, his older brother took care of him in Luxor. In 2530 his planet was glassed by the Covenant and his brother sacrificed himself so that Emile could escape; this event had a profound impact on him.[6] Orphaned, he was conscripted into the SPARTAN-III program as a part of Alpha Company. Discovering that he could fill the hole in his heart with the corpses of the Covenant, Emile quickly adapted and excelled in his training. Emile graduated from the program at the age of 13, though his aptitude was such that he was removed from the general population of Alpha Company by Kurt-051 and Franklin Mendez before Operation: PROMETHEUS in 2537 (which resulted in the deaths of most members of the company) to be used for tasks that required a more skillful hand.[7]
Some time following December 2551, Emile was assigned onto NOBLE Team to fill the spot left by the departure of Rosenda-A344 after the defense of Concord, taking on the callsign Noble Four. Despite this, on March 9, 2552, Colonel Urban Holland still considered reversing this placement in the event that an operation against Insurrectionists was to come up, due to Emile's noted excessive violence in combat against human rebels.[5] In April of that year, Emile fought alongside NOBLE in the Battle of Fumirole in an assault on Sanctity of Purification, a Ket-pattern battlecruiser which had taken position over the planet's capital city.[8]
Fall of Reach[edit]
On July 23, 2552, contact with the Visegrad communications relay on Reach was lost. After losing contact with the Army fireteams that he had deployed to investigate the disturbance, Colonel Urban Holland sent Noble Team to find the cause of the communications blackout. Soon after arriving at the relay, Noble Team encountered a Covenant incursion force. Soon, the team split in half, with Emile, Jun, and Kat flying directly to the relay and Carter, Jorge, and Noble Six proceeding on the ground. After the team battled their way inside and fought a team of Sangheili Zealots known as the Devoted Sentries, Carter informed Holland that the WINTER CONTINGENCY was in effect, as Covenant forces were on Reach.[9]
