Melody Azikiwe

Melody Azikiwe is an envoy of the UEG Diplomatic Corps.

Undiminished Entelechy
On July 12, 2556, Azikiwe worked alongside the AI Adalbert to translate recorded conversations stored on the black-box of the Covenant Undiminished Entelechy. The black-box had been recovered by Spartan Fireteam Apollo as part of Operation: SHELL GAME.

Envoy to Carrow
On September 1, 2558, Azikiwe with Adam Hsein, Jens Forsburg, and Victoria Weaver as her staff, were sent to Carrow aboard the Sangheili ship Unwavering Discipline commanded by Rojka 'Kasaan to broker peace between the human and Sangheili settilers. During their arrival, Rojka's fleet engaged in battle with Thars 'Sarov and Jiralhanae-led fleets in Carrow's orbit. In the midst of the battle, Azikiwe sent her staff down to the surface of Carrow to escape the fighting in orbit, while she would stay behind in order to attempt her mission provided by the Office of Naval Intelligence: negotiate the handover of Spartan-II Gray Team. Meeting with Rojka, Azikiwe attempted to persuade the fleetmaster to free the Spartans but Rojka refused. After acquiring weaponry from one of the ship's armories, Azikiwe moved towards the storage holds where they kept Gray Team's Cryotubes. As she released the Spartans from cryo, she became gravely injured in the midst of a brief skirmish between herself and Rojka's warriors, falling into unconsciousness. Gray Team awakened to find Azikiwe's body and after applying biofoam to her injuries, the Spartans took her and fight through the ship to the hangar area. After finding their lifeboat, the Spartans take Azikiwe and pilot the ship down to the surface of Carrow.
