April Orenski was born on [[Harvest]] to [[Roger Orenski|Roger]] and [[Madelyn Orenski]], two high-ranking officers in the UNSC.

Even by mid-[[2526]], Orenski was not aware that her homeworld had been [[glassing|glassed]] by the [[Covenant]] or the fact that a [[Harvest Campaign|campaign to reclaim it]] had begun due to the UNSC's still-extant blackout on the alien invasion. Thus, the [[Battle of Circinius IV|invasion of Circinius IV]] came as a complete surprise to her. Much of her squad was killed early on in the engagement, and along with [[Thomas Lasky]], [[Chyler Silva]], and [[Michael Sullivan]], she was one of the few people on the entire planet to survive the initial Covenant attack. Her confidence was severely shaken by the stress of combat, leading Lasky to become Hastati Squad's ''de facto'' leader. However, this did not prevent her from acquitting herself well in combat.<ref name="part4">'''Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn''', ''Part 4''</ref> | Even by mid-[[2526]], Orenski was not aware that her homeworld had been [[glassing|glassed]] by the [[Covenant]] or the fact that a [[Harvest Campaign|campaign to reclaim it]] had begun due to the UNSC's still-extant blackout on the alien invasion.
