Tarkov

Tarkov was a member of the UNSC Marine Corps, participating during the Human-Covenant War. Tarkov was an Orbital Drop Shock Trooper, assigned to the 19th Shock Troops Battalion of the 105th ODST Division.

His relative or close acquaintance/friend, K. Stark, was a deceased member of his battalion. Tarkov attended Stark's burial and afterward enlisted in the UNSC Marine Corps. He then went through a series of brutal training exercises to prepare him for combat against the Covenant.

During one of his first battles, he dropped into an unknown planet amongst other Marines in the 19th Shock Troops Battalion to engage Covenant forces. Within the engagement, several Banshees and Covenant ground forces were present. One Brute Major had struck Tarkov into a small puddle. As the Brute was approaching the helpless soldier, a severely damaged Banshee crashed nearby; killing the Brute.

Tarkov continued to serve with the Orbital Drop Shock Troopers for several years. His current status is unknown.
