Lieutenant Commander Jameson Locke is a SPARTAN supersoldier and an Office of Naval Intelligence operative.[1]
Biography
At one point Locke was part of an Office of Naval Intelligence unit dispatched to the distant human colony Sedra to investigate terrorist activity.[2] During the investigation Locke and his unit discovered an ancient alien artifact.[3]
Sometime after 2553 Locke compiled a target profile report concerning the Arbiter Thel 'Vadam, detailing 'Vadam's personal history from the start of the Human-Covenant War to the glassing of Reach and beyond. This report was later accessed by John-117.[4]
Following the Didact's attack on Earth, Locke was evidently tasked with tracking down MCPO John-117. To this end, Locke met with Arbiter Thel 'Vadam and studied video recordings of the Master Chief's exploits to better learn about the legendary Spartan's history.[1]
Personality and traits
Locke is described as a competent soldier who takes a professional approach to combat situations and inspires loyalty in those under his command. However, he is troubled by some aspects of the organization he serves under.[5]
Armor
Locke wears what appears to be a modified version of the MJOLNIR (GEN2) Soldier variant. It is painted dark gray with yellow-orange highlights much like the Recruit-class armor worn by many Spartans on Template:UNSCship. On the back, the bodysuit bears a pattern of two light blue glowing lines which begin at the upper thighs and connect at the nape, a feature not observed in other GEN2 variants. Similar lines are also featured on the front side, specifically the upper arms and chest. An ONI emblem is painted on the chest piece's left breast, with the code number 00-8221-3 painted on both sides.
