'''Diego Esquival''' | '''Diego Esquival''' was a former [[Madrigal]] citizen and a retired [[Insurrectionist]]. He was the brother of [[Maria Esquival]]. He moved to [[the Rubble]] after his homeworld was [[Glassing|glassed]] by the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]]. | ||
==Biography== | |||
===Early life=== | |||
Diego was born on [[Madrigal]]. Diego had joined the [[Insurrectionist]]s when he was younger. He began to plant bombs in [[spaceport]]s, [[space station]]s, and passenger ships. He became a smuggler and a [[piracy|pirate]]. When Madrigal was attacked by the [[Covenant]], Diego helped evacuate many people, including Maria Esquival and [[Ignatio Delgado]]. He took Delgado and Maria under his care.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Cole Protocol]]''', ''page 45''</ref> He lead the refugees to [[the Rubble]], an Insurrectionist [[asteroid]] base orbiting [[Hesiod]]. | |||
===The Rubble=== | |||
Diego helped the Insurrectionists improve the Rubble using spaceships and raw materials. He became a member of the [[Rubble Security Council]]. Diego helped establish the [[Exodus Project]], a mass evacuation plan in case the Rubble was ever discovered by the Covenant or UNSC.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 219''</ref> In [[2535]], Diego attended [[Melko Hollister]]'s funeral. He warned Delgado that a member of the Security Council was attempting to sell navigation data to the [[Kig-Yar]].<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 42''</ref> | |||
Delgado was arrested by Council member [[Peter Bonifacio]] when he refused to hand over the navigation data. Delgado was interrogated by the members of the Security Council, asking for the location of the navigation data. The Council revealed that they were intending to place the data to the Exodus Project for safekeeping. Delgado reluctantly agreed and he brought Bonifacio and Diego to where the data was hidden, aboard his freighter, the ''[[Distancia]]''.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 175''</ref> | |||
===Death=== | |||
When the three reached the freighter, Delgado was about to hand the data over to Esquival, but Diego was shot and mortally wounded by Bonifacio.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 233''</ref> Diego and Delgado were locked in the ''Distancia'''s damaged airlocks and left to die from lack of [[oxygen]]. Esquival succumbed to his wounds, but Delgado was rescued by [[Spartan-II|Spartan]] [[Gray Team]].<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 238''</ref> Shortly after his death, [[Jai-006]] put him in a [[cryo chamber]] to preserve his body until he could be safely transported back to the Rubble.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 240''</ref> | |||
His sister, Maria, took his position on the Security Council after his death.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 291''</ref> When the remains of the Rubble arrived at the human colony of [[Falaknuma]], a funeral for Diego was held on the planet.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 355''</ref> | |||
