An unknown being mentioned in the IGN UK description of the Halo Interactive Boardgame<ref>http://uk.gear.ign.com/articles/906/906226p1.html IGN</ref>.
'''Kusanagi''' was a 2nd Generation [[smart AI|"smart"]] [[Artificial Intelligence|AI construct]] used by the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] during the [[Battle of Jericho VII]].<ref>''[[:File:Halo - Interactive Strategy Game - Back View.jpg|Strategy Game back]]''</ref>


"''Two or more players can form teams with 15 sculpted characters direct from the Halo series including Kusunagi, The Prophet of Candor, and of course, Master Chief.''"
==Biography==
===Human-Covenant war===
In [[2535]], before the [[Battle of Jericho VII]], Kusanagi was monitoring all transmissions to the system, in which she intercepted an encrypted [[Covenant]] message from the [[Prophet of Candor]] stating the Covenant were to attack [[Jericho VII]]. She proceeded to go over the scenario, and asked [[Blue Team]] to assist.<ref>''[[Halo Interactive Strategy Game]]'', campaign 1, "[[Jericho VII (level)|Jericho VII]]"</ref>


Kusunagi is a Japanese name and the name of a Japanese [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kusunagi_Station train line] suggesting the character may be a [[Human]] of Japanese heritage or it could possibly be a play on words of the name Kusanagi, being a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kusanagi legendary sword] in japan, or alternately, a play on words of the fictional character, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motoko_Kusanagi Motoko Kusanagi]. It could also be a [[Sangheili]] character, due to their similarities in their culture to Bushido.
In [[2552]], during the [[Fall of Reach]], Kusanagi was intercepting Covenant communications and learnt of a force that was coming to destroy generators powering [[CASTLE Base]]. She proceeded to ask Blue team to destroy navigation data to [[Earth]].<ref>''Halo Interactive Strategy Game'', campaign 2, "[[Defense of Castle Base]]"</ref>
 
Soon after the planet had fallen, the Prophet of Candor ordered his forces to recover a [[Forerunner]] artifact near CASTLE Base. Kusanagi was still active and proceeded to ask surviving UNSC forces to stop the Covenant forces from getting access to the artifact.<ref>''Halo Interactive Strategy Game'', campaign 3, "[[The Hidden Artifact of Reach]]"</ref>
 
==Trivia==
*Kusanagi is voiced by voice actress Stephanie Steh.
*The AI is named after a [[wikipedia:Kusanagi|Japanese legendary sword]]. This could be a reference to [[Bungie]]'s running motif of naming important AIs after mythological swords; the names of both [[Cortana]] and [[marathongame:Durandal (AI)|Durandal]], the principal AI in the ''[[Marathon]]'' series, are based on this convention, although the two are more than tangentially connected as both are named in an inscription on Cortana's [[Wikipedia:Curtana|namesake]].
