Talk:Veronica Dare

This is da main antagonist right?--Unreal Admin 04:04, 29 May 2009 (UTC)


 * No, and that "female as the villian" was a April Fools Joke from me and Subtank.

Number Six? Frakin' awesome. --Dragonc laws (talk ) 08:08, 29 May 2009 (UTC)


 * I would lulz if her issued uniform is the "red" dress.

The article mentions Katee Sackhoff as well. What role does she play, or is this speculation? The reference also only links to pre-E3 trailers, which from what I've seen have little to do with the actual game. -- ' Administrator  Specops306  -  Qur'a 'Morhek ''  Honour Light Your Way!

 * Katee Sackhoff only played a Marine in the original Halo 3, and she is unconfirmed for ODST. As for all of the references, the pre-E3 trailer from GTTV is where Tricia Helfer (and I was praying for a BSG game) announced her role.

So, I assume this Dare would be the commanding officer overlooking Rookie's mission to find other ODST members and giving him advice and so?-  5 əb'7 aŋk (7alk ) 11:57, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

Unnamed Armor
The article states that her armor hasn't been identified yet. If so, why is there a picture of recon-ish armor on the page? Where did the picture come from, and is it actually a picture of Dare? Arcdash 16:29, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
 * No, I completely made it up for the lulz.

The pic is from GTTV's sneak peek at MSoft's booth which is Halo 3: ODST centric and even shows another ODST behind the one with the SMG (who is supposedly the main protagonist of the game, the Rookie). - Lemurwolf132

XD
The pictures of dare make it look like the recon helmet as just photoshoped onto odst Armour XD.

Cat/Kat
In the opening cutscene of ODST, Veronica says, "Call me Kat," I am not sure if she was just flirting with Buck, or referring to a nickname of hers. Any expansion upon this? Thx,


 * I'm pretty sure she says "Call me Captain". --Jugus 00:22, 5 June 2009 (UTC)


 * What you heard was "Kat/Cat/Kap" = "Cap", "Captain".

Her real name?
I think her realm name is Veronica, not "Meronica".
 * It is. Buck says the "v" pretty quickly, but it is definately not Meronica. That's no western name I've ever heard of.--Spartan999 21:21, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

Maybe it's a result of 500 years of social evolution?Baryon15 11:07, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
 * That could be a possibility as even now kids are saying things i dont rly understand half the time and who knows what they will be saying 500 years from now--Ashing shot 12:14, 19 June 2009 (UTC)


 * With the possible exception of "yoan gahn dur tzan sze", they haven't really done that, though. --Dragonc laws (talk ) 05:37, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

Classified
I had really question why she doesn't have the information from Bungie.net and I had only checked the one of Buck and I saw the information and the only thing that isn't calssified is her gender:

DARE Full name: [classified] Blood type: [classified] Height: [classified] Weight: [classified]

Rating: [classified] Unit: [classified] Service number: [classified] Enlistment date: [classified] Location: [classified]

Born: [classified] Gender: F Citizen: [classified] Age: [classified] Occupation: [classified]

As a member of the Office of Naval Intelligence, her files would neccessarily be classified to exclude those without access. And since the Story Bible is written in-universe, that's what Bungie give us. As for why her gender isn't classified, I think it would be pretty obvious she's a "she", so there'd be little point classifying that. -- ' Administrator  Specops306  -  Qur'a 'Morhek ''  Honour Light Your Way!

How does she do it?
How can she use Powered Armor if only Spartans have the reflexes and endurance to use them without hurting themselves? Sonictheblade 04:23, 7 August 2009 (UTC)


 * If you look at it carefully you see that what she's really wearing isn't powered armor. It's really just normal body armor with a special Recon-style helmet.--Emblem 1.jpgRusty - 112 04:30, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Is it just me, or does she resemble The Boss from Metal Gear Solid 3?


 * I can see a small resemblence.SPARTAN-177 21:45, 25 August 2009 (UTC)


 * There is a small resemblance, but Dare is modeled after her voice actor, Tricia Helfer. Black Mesa.jpg Halo-343   ( Talk )   ( Contribs )   ( Edits )  11:06, October 27, 2009 (UTC)

Legendary
I don't think this is her for firefight, as Bungie stated they hadn't talked about or mentioned the character for beating legendary, I think it is Spoiler Do not go furthur if you don't want be spoiled

The Engineer, who sides with the Squad.--Hunter on Steriods 14:23, September 18, 2009 (UTC)


 * Why would it be him? It would look weird seeing him wield human and Covenant weapons. Also, the leaked achivements comfirms it's Dare. SPARTAN-177 17:20, September 18, 2009 (UTC)

It would be cool, but oh will, and could you give me a link?--Hunter on Steriods 22:33, September 18, 2009 (UTC)

Profile pic
Hey I love that picture for Dare on the page could somebody tell me who put it there? --Orbital ODST 15:30, October 2, 2009 (UTC)


 * Yo. --TDSpiral94 01:16, October 26, 2009 (UTC)

Navy or Marine Captain?
Is there any actual proof that she's a Navy Captain, and not a marine one? Sure, it's said she's with ONI, but for all we know she could be a marine/ODST employed by ONI (which would better explain her apparent adaptability with the HEV and it'd have been more likely for her and Buck to meet and get mixed up together in that relationship they had in the past), kinda like Ackerson was a part of the army but worked for ONI. Also, I find it highly unlikely that a navy captain (who command ships) would be sent to carry out a simple fetch quest together with NCO marines. (Note: I haven't unlocked Dare yet in Firefight, so I may be missing something).

Matt-256 22:24, October 25, 2009 (UTC)


 * I'm not exactly sure. I thought she was a Marine Captain myself, but I don't have the game, so I dunno. By the way, Jacob Keyes was a Naval Captain, and he accompanied some Marines to a swamp to fetch a weapons cache... so apparently, if Dare IS a Naval Captain, it isn't that unusual.  Smoke Sound off! 01:09, October 26, 2009 (UTC)


 * Yeah, like back in the 1800's. Navy crew would often accompany Marines on raids and what not. Many of those raids where personaly lead by the ships Captain or Lieutenant who would both the crew and Marines. Just adding that on.--CR8ZY-ArAB  01:47, December 11, 2009 (UTC)

Veronica looks rather young to be a Navy Captain. It takes a long time to be a Navy Captain. People dont usually get to be a Navy captain in their fourties! On other other hand, Marine Captain is only 0-3 while a Navy Captain is almost an Admiral!

Well remember, she is ONI AKA office of NAVAL intellegince. and its sorta like ODSTs are half navy/half marine.cause they drop in ships.SPARTAN-III leader 03:01, April 8, 2010 (UTC)


 * ODSt's are not Navy though, their are a subsection of the Marines, similar to Marine Avaiators 80.png  El Ammo Bandito, "¡Para todas sus necesidades destructivas!"  03:03, April 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * Although the UNSC Marine Corps is technically under the authority of the UNSC Navy, and we do have examples of Marines working in ONI. -- SFH 22:48, July 29, 2010 (UTC)

say what?
Ok,I don't get it.Is Dare's whole armour Recon or just her helmet.Is that what female ODST body armour looks like or what.I guess it would be hard to know as no female ODST's are ever seen in-game--4.153.71.65 00:01, December 11, 2009 (UTC)Lance Corporal Phy-ODST
 * Uh, I doubt female and male ODSTs would normally wear different armor or helmets. Dare's an ONI operative. That's why she wears specialized armor. It's not the same "recon" as the Armor permutation, it's only a similar variant of the ODST armor.--Jugus (Talk  | <font color="Gray">Contribs ) 06:42, December 11, 2009 (UTC)

captain/ veronica
do u ppl ever use sub titles? i use them whenever i get the chance and they said both captain and veronica not kat or meronica ok?

Her Height
Hey where did you get that she was 5'7? - Anon

How did Escape?
Okay, just out of curiosity. How the heck did she get out of her pod and close the hatch if she was trapped in it?T-rex-king 11:09, May 21, 2010 (UTC)

This is just speculation, but maybe the Engineer helped her out and then closed it back up so the Covies would think she's still inside? I mean, think about it. A member of a pacifistic alien slave race decides to help out the "enemy" so that maybe this human could help to free his race from his Covenant masters.--One who survived 19:37, 4 April 2011 (EDT)


 * Or, she got out already, and the Engineer "fixed" the pod, changing it into its original state, which is the closed form. I don't know why Dare didn't tell Buck.— S331 Talk • Contributions 20:59, 4 April 2011 (EDT)
