Biography
Early childhood
Born September 15, 2511 on the colony of Sansar, Naomi was the only child of Staffan and Lena Sentzke. In September 10, 2517, five days before her sixth birthday, Naomi was abducted by ONI Retrieval team Theta 2 and conscripted into the SPARTAN-II program. Like the other Spartan candidates, she was taken to the UNSC fortress world of Reach, and for years trained under Chief Petty Officer Franklin Mendez and the AI Déjà. In 2525, she survived the subsequent augmentation procedures.
Unbeknownst to Naomi, she was replaced by a flash clone who died after one and a half years. Her devastated mother came to believe that her "daughter's" death was the result of a hereditary genetic defect, and decided to undergo sterilization; she committed suicide six months later. Correctly deducing that the clone wasn't his real daughter, and that her disappearance was the result of a government conspiracy, her father developed a deep hatred for the UNSC and later became an Insurrectionist leader on Venezia.[2]
Post-war
Naomi-010 survived the Human-Covenant War. In 2553, She was selected by Admiral Margaret Parangosky to serve under Captain Serin Osman as part of a black operations team designated Kilo-Five. The team, comprised of pilot Lian Devereaux, Dr. Evan Phillips, Corporal Vasily Beloi, Staff Sergeant Malcolm Geffen and the AI Black-Box, were sent on a top-secret mission to sow discord between different Sangheili factions through arming their dissidents, notably the Servants of the Abiding Truth. During this mission, she was equipped with a suit of newly developed MJOLNIR Mk. VII Powered Assault Armor.
During her time aboard the prowler UNSC Port Stanley, she learned of Captain Osman's past, that she was in fact Serin-019, a former Spartan trainee who Naomi and the other Spartans thought had died.[3] Naomi primarily stayed back on the first three missions enacted by Kilo-Five, the delivery of tagged weaponry to Avu Med 'Telcam, the extraction of Mike Spenser on Reynes, and the attempted rescue of the UNSC Ariadne above Venezia. [4]
In February of 2553, during one of Kilo-Five's exchanges with 'Telcam on New Llanelli, Naomi spotted a Sangheili eavesdropper named Jul 'Mdama. Using her profound strength, she subdued 'Mdama and had him incarcerated onboard Port Stanley. Not long after, ONI had established communications with the human survivors inside Trevelyan. Admiral Parangosky ordered Kilo-Five to arrest Dr. Catherine Halsey. Kilo-Five entered the shield world via dropship and detained Halsey, taking her and the other survivors aboard Port Stanley. Jul 'Mdama was later placed in captivity on Trevelyan after ONI had established a local research facility.
Mission on Sanghelios
This section needs expansion. You can help Halopedia by expanding it.
Venezian movement
Following the "Thursday war" at Sanghelios, Kilo-Five quickly resumed its previous task and returned to Venezia. With Spencer's help, Naomi and Vaz went undercover as UNSC deserters and investigated Venezia's black markets. During their investigation of Insurrectionist activity on the planet, they spotted Staffan Sentzke in company with the Skirmisher Sav Fel, the possessor of the battlecruiser Pious Inquisitor which Kilo-Five sought to find and acquire.[5] Shortly thereafter, Naomi was pulled out and substituted by Mal as her family ties might compromise the mission.
While Mal and Vaz infiltrated the Venezian militia, Naomi and Devereaux traveled to Anchor 10 with the Pelican Tart-Cart to retrieve a new dropship to Kilo-Five, having it immediately upgraded with the same capabilities as Tart-Cart by the Huragok Requires Adjustment. During the trip, however, Mal and Vaz were captured by the Insurrectionists on Venezia and Naomi and Devereaux were immediately tasked with the rescue mission. Naomi piloted the new Pelican, dubbed Bogof, to extract Mal, while Devereaux went after Vaz with Tart-Cart. Landing her dropship near Stuttgart armory, Naomi crashed through the roof of the building where Geffen was being held, instantly neutralizing the insurgent guarding him. Carrying Mal, she flew back to Bogof using her jetpack.
Reunion
Both having succeeded in their respective extractions, Naomi and Devereaux returned to Port Stanley, with Naomi's father taken captive aboard Devereaux's Pelican. Soon after, Staffan Sentzke was informed about the Spartan program and was allowed by Osman to reunite with his daughter. Staffan was dumbfounded about meeting the daughter he had sought after for so long, particularly after learning what had truly happened to her. In the ensuing exchanges between the two, Staffan asked Naomi to give up her service with the UNSC in favor of a normal family life. Although she found the prospect virtually unprecedented, Naomi feared her judgment would be clouded by her Spartan indoctrination. Having forgotten about her life prior to the SPARTAN-II program almost entirely, Naomi asked Black-Box to use data recorded by ONI while connected through her neural implant to trigger some of her childhood memories. Even though she became highly upset upon viewing the recordings of the early days of the Spartan program, this did not change her decision to stay with the UNSC.
Pious Inquisitor
Meanwhile, Kilo-Five managed to track down Pious Inquisitor, which had been boarded by a Kig-Yar pirate crew attempting to commandeer the ship for themselves. Naomi and Mal boarded the ship as Kilo-Five's second boarding party, moving toward the bridge and eliminating members of the Kig-Yar crew on the way. The humans' advance soon prompted the Shipmistress, Chol Von, to set the ship to explode. Naomi and Mal escaped to Bogof; Staffan Sentzke, having fled the ship aboard a Spirit and intending to escape his ONI captors, stayed in range until he could ensure Naomi was safe. While Kilo-Five made it aboard Port Stanley, Sentzke was presumed dead when Pious Inquisitor self-destructed.
With the Venezian threat seemingly neutralized, Kilo-Five was granted shore leave. While the rest of the team headed planetside on Cascade, Naomi chose to remain aboard Port Stanley. After the rest of the team returned onboard, Vaz received an anonymous package containing a planetarium lamp and a chair for a dolls' house—both of which Staffan had planned to give Naomi for her sixth birthday decades earlier—indicating he was still alive.
Equipment
Naomi is the only Spartan known to have been issued the Mark VII MJOLNIR armor as of February 2558; the other active SPARTAN-IIs are rumored to still use the Mark VI,[6] while the SPARTAN-IVs use various GEN2 kits. Her suit closely resembles the Mark V [B], which may be a stylistic choice on her part.[citation needed] It sports a blue color scheme and a reflective orange visor.[7]
Trivia
The cover art of both Halo: The Thursday War and Halo: Mortal Dictata depict Naomi's visor as bluish-silver, though the latter describes it as reflective orange. Furthermore, Mortal Dictata's cover art show Naomi's helmet as gray rather than blue.
