==Biography==
==Biography==
Sharp-by-Striking was a veteran of the [[human-Forerunner war]], commanding a tactical squadron under the [[Ur-Didact|Didact]]. The Didact regarded him as a decent, if talkative, commander. After the wars, however, Sharp sided with the [[Master Builder]], [[Faber]], in opposing the Didact's [[shield world]] strategy and helped convince the [[Ecumene Council|Old Council]] that the shield worlds would not work. He later became one of many Warriors to join the [[Builder]] rate, serving in [[Builder Security]].
Sharp-by-Striking was a veteran of the [[human-Forerunner war]], commanding a tactical squadron under the [[Ur-Didact]]. Sometime later he opposed the Ur-Didact and helped convince the [[Ecumene Council|Old Council]] that the [[Shield World]]s would not work. At some point he joined the [[Builder]] rate, becoming part of [[Builder security]], during this time he served in several campaigns against the Flood. During the [[Battle of the Capital]], with the [[Warden]]'s help, he aided Faber in escaping the capital. Aboard a fast frigate, he was ordered to escape, before they did, Faber's personal security attacked and killed all but Sharp. Sharp-by-Striking was exiled by [[Master Builder]] [[Faber]] along with the Ur-Didact to [[Uthera Midgeerrd]]. He informed the Ur-Didact that they were on a Burn, a punishment where they had no armor or ancillas to help them and were deliberately sent to a Flood infected system. Sharp regretted joining the Builders and, wishing to re-join the Warrior-Servants, offered to help the Ur-Didact again. After a brief conversation with the ship's damaged [[ancilla]], Sharp was sent to release the other two Forerunners from stasis to see what they knew. When he returned he reported that one of the Forerunners was a high-ranking Builder and the other was a [[Catalog]], that may not make it out of stasis.  
 
During the [[Forerunner-Flood war]], he served in several campaigns against the [[Flood]]. During the [[Battle of the Capital]], with the [[Warden]]'s help, he aided Faber in escaping the [[Capital]]. Aboard a [[second-order fast frigate]], he was ordered to escape, but before they could, Faber's personal security attacked and killed all but Sharp. Faber exiled Sharp-by-Striking along with the Ur-Didact and several others, all in stasis bubbles, to an abandoned Builder hulk near [[Uthera Midgeerrd]].
 
Sharp's stasis bubble failed some time before the Didact's, releasing him. When the Didact woke, he was soon encountered by Sharp who informed him that they had been sent into a [[Burn]], a Flood-infested system, without [[Forerunner personal armor|armor]] or [[ancilla]]s. Sharp regretted joining the Builders and, wishing to rejoin the Warrior-Servants, offered to help the Ur-Didact again. After a brief conversation with the ship's damaged ancilla, Sharp and the Didact released the other two Forerunners from stasis to see what they knew. One of the Forerunners was a high-ranking female Builder named [[Maker-of-Moons]] and the other was [[Catalog]] previously assigned to hear her testimony.
 
Soon after, the ship was intercepted by a double-bow formation of active [[Precursor]] [[star road]]s and a Flood-controlled fleet. Sharp and Maker chose to leave the ship in stasis bubbles, likely never to be recovered, over being forced to confront the Flood.
