Lieutenant Commander Xaing Cho is a UNSC senior officer and chief engineer aboard the UNSC Dusk.[1]

Biography

As of 2552, he was technically past the mandatory retirement age for the Prowler Corps, which was quietly ignored by his commander, Captain Iglesias,[2] as Cho was an extremely skilled engineer and impossible to replace.

Cho was at his post in late 2552 during the Battle of Earth. Commander Richard Lash took the ship into slipspace in pursuit of the Prophet of Regret's assault carrier the Solemn Penance, which was being pursued by the UNSC In Amber Clad.[1] Cho stayed at his post on the trip to Installation 05, back to Earth and then to Onyx and the Onyx Conflict,[3] and then back to Earth again.

Production notes

Cho is listed as the Charlie Shift Communications Officer in the bulletin board duty roster aboard UNSC Pillar of Autumn in Halo: Campaign Evolved.[4] This is presumably non-canon, as Ghosts of Onyx makes no indication he had somehow fought at Alpha Halo and somehow managed to return home.
