"Gonna take a lot more than this to kill me, Commander."
— Hoya to Sarah Palmer after sustaining minor injuries from a Promethean Knight.[1]

Carlo Hoya (service number 90302-89202-CH)[2] is a SPARTAN-IV supersoldier who serves on Fireteam Majestic, part of the UNSC Infinity's Spartan contingent during the Second Battle of Requiem in early 2558.[2]

Biography

Early life

Born on Asmara, he and his family fled to Circumstance as refugees. Upon turning the eligible age he joined the UNSC Marine Corps and eventually became an ODST. During the Battle of New Jerusalem in 2552, Hoya was taken prisoner by the Covenant. However, he was able to escape and in the process managed to save a dozen Naval officers.[2]

At some point, Hoya joined the SPARTAN-IV program, and was assigned to Fireteam Majestic under squad leader Paul DeMarco. Majestic, with the exception of Gabriel Thorne was assigned to a mission in Rio de Janeiro. He and Majestic stopped a Sangheili from detonating a HAVOK nuke.

Second Battle of Requiem

Main article: Second Battle of Requiem

In 2558 Majestic was all assigned to the UNSC Infinity under the command of Sarah Palmer. The UNSC Infinity then began its second tour of Requiem.[3] At some point on their stay on Infinity, Hoya helped Thorne search for Halsey's presence on the ship. Hoya found a letter from Admiral Margaret Parangosky to Dr. Halsey (whose name was redacted on the document) and gave it to Thorne, who kept it in his UNSC Infinity Briefing Packet.[4]

Majestic and Fireteam Crimson were sent north of the UNSC's operational area to down Forerunner power generators. As they had similar objectives, Palmer turned the operation into a challenge between Majestic and Crimson. Despite having their long-range communications downed, the teams restored them and continued with the challenge. Though pulling ahead, Majestic was beat by Crimson, despite Crimson actually facing firmer resistance than Fireteam Majestic.[5]

Later on Requiem's surface, Fireteam Majestic had to face a swarm of Promethean Crawlers, translocating on the planets surface. Soon Promethean Knights began to attack, injuring Majestic member Tedra Grant. Enraged, Hoya broke cover to take on the Knight, and got injured. He was evacuated and brought in a stretcher back aboard the UNSC Infinity where he was met by Palmer. Hoya informed her that he would return to the field.[6]

True to his word, Hoya joined the rest of Majestic on retrieving the artifact known as the "Didact's Gift" from Galileo Base after most of the forces had been cleared out by Crimson. Retrieving the gift, they got pinned down by Banshees and Phantoms. However, Thorne managed to hijack a Banshee and destroy a Phantom, allowing Majestic to bring the gift back to the Infinity.[7]

Later, Hoya and the others from Majestic rescued Thorne and Dr. Glassman from Gek 'Lhar, and later on, attempted to rescue Dr. Halsey from Jul 'Mdama. Later, he, along with the rest of Majestic and Commander Palmer, located and deactivated one of the artifacts binding Infinity to Requiem. With the other artifact having been deactivated by Crimson, Infinity was able to escape Requiem before the shield world was destroyed.

Freighter rescue

Days after DeMarco's death, Hoya and the rest of Fireteam Majestic were deployed to rescue a damaged freighter and its crew.[8]

Equipment

Hoya wears the Operator variant of the MJOLNIR GEN2 armor, and carries an M45D shotgun.
