[[Master Chief Petty Officer]] "John" SPARTAN-117 has been trained since childhood to be an expert with any [[weapon]], the master of any [[vehicle]] he has been quite literally transformed into a living weapon (while encased in [[MJOLNIR Armor|MJOLNIR powered assault armor]] or not.)

The [[Monitor]] of [[Installation 04]] (or what humanity knows as the first [[Halo]] artifact) is an [[artificial intelligence]], a being of inscrutable purpose and one of the only surviving links to the long-vanished [[Forerunner]] civilization. Guilty Spark's dedication to the safety and operation of the Halo weapon makes him a dangerously unpredictable entity - a friend one moment and a deadly foe the next. 343 Guilty Spark was recovered from the wreckage of the destroyed Halo by Covenant forces, who regard him as an [[Oracle]] of their religion. They were wrong. | The [[Monitor]] of [[Installation 04]] (or what humanity knows as the first [[Halo]] artifact) is an [[artificial intelligence]], a being of inscrutable purpose and one of the only surviving links to the long-vanished [[Forerunner]] civilization.
