'''Lieutenant, Junior Grade Mason Hundley''' is an [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] operative.<ref name="wp hundley"/>

==Biography==
===Early life===
Mason Hundley was born on [[Luna]]. His mother taught at [[Luna OCS Academy]] while his father was an excavator pilot. Because of his father's line of work Mason learned to pilot heavy-duty ice farm equipment at a young age. He performed spotting and excavation runs on Luna's [[Wikipedia:Mare Frigoris|Mare Frigoris]], or the Cold Sea. Mason's father died when he was thirteen years old in an accident in the [[Wikipedia:Oceanus Procellarum|Procellarum basin]] where his skiff ran into severe winds during a retrieval maneuver. His father's death had a major impact on Hundley's life.<ref name="wp hundley"/>

He completed secondary school at a UNSC firebase in Borneo, at the same time helping manage security at the [[Borneo Space Tether]]. He enlisted in the navy immediately after his graduation and served with the [[UNSC Home Fleet]] for several years before being selected into ONI. Some believe this assignment was due to his mother's influence, particularly since it saved him from a likely death in the [[Battle of Earth]] in [[2552]]. Serving within ONI's remote tactical strike teams, Hundley participated in a number of field intelligence operations in hostile [[Outer Colonies]] that were suspected of associations with the [[Covenant]].<ref name="wp hundley"/>

===Sedra===
Hundley was deployed on the [[Outer Colony]] of [[Sedra]] as part of [[Locke's team|a unit]] led by [[Lieutenant Commander Jameson Locke]] during an ONI operation to investigate [[terrorism|terrorist]] activity on the colony. He accompanied [[Jordan Gaines|Lieutenant Jordan Gaines]] in the [[City of Sedra]] while Agent Locke and his field team attempted to seize the terrorists in the city outskirts. Locke and his team were unable to prevent their target—a [[Sangheili Zealot]]—from entering a crowded mall in the city and activating a new [[bioweapon]]. Hundley, Gaines and many Sedran civilians were subjected to the effects of the weapon, which seemingly targeted human DNA at random. They were rushed to a [[Sedran Colonial Guard]] hospital in a critical condition; while [[Randall Aiken|Colonel Aiken]] was reluctant to let them in Locke managed to convince him to allow the agents to be treated.<ref name="nf1">'''Halo: Nightfall''' - ''Chapter One''</ref>

==Production notes==
*Hundley is portrayed in ''[[Halo: Nightfall]]'' by actor {{Plain|[http://www.imdb.com/name/nm4377217/ Shaun Blaney]}}.<ref name="waypoint">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/halo-nightfall '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Halo: Nightfall description'']</ref>
*Hundley's biography on ''[[Halo Waypoint]]'' claims he was born in [[2535]].<ref name="wp hundley"/> However, if this were so he would have been no more than seventeen years old when he joined ONI, let alone the years he spent in the Home Fleet prior to his transfer.
