FFG-611, dubbed the UNSC Casa del Esparza by Fernando Esparza, was a Mulsanne-class light frigate in the service of the UNSC Navy during the post-Covenant war era.[1]

Service history[edit]

In December 2559, the frigate participated in and was destroyed during the Battle over Installation 07, being cut in two. There were no survivors.

In early June 2560, Fernando Esparza found part of the wreckage in Installation 07's debris field. By that point, Banished salvagers had already scoured the area, taking all of the big guns and ammo. Esparza, who was an engineer by trade, had to seal up a few air leaks, but the hull and oxygen tanks were good. The frigate's low sensor emission couldn't be detected by the Banished and it was full of useful supplies. Esparza dubbed the ship the UNSC Casa del Esparza.

On June 3, Esparza brought John-117 and Joyeuse to the FFG-611 after picking them up following the Battle of the Silent Auditorium.[1] Joyeuse discovered that the ship's AI had scrubbed all encrypted and eyes-only data before self-terminating as the vessel broke up. All that was left was personnel files and historical data left in the most unremarkable places such as learning modules, personal datapads, entertainment, and even vending machines that formed a patchwork of the rich history of humanity. The personal journals inspired Joyeuse to reconfigure her event log framework to include a personal journal template.[4]

The next day, the three gathered an arsenal from the debris field, some of which would be stored on the frigate and some on Echo 216. Once the Pelican was loaded up, the Master Chief shut down the ship's generator and energy barrier before they departed.[5]
