==Biography==
===Post-War===
Following the end of the [[Human-Covenant War]] in [[2553|January 2553]], he and fellow ODST [[Vasily Beloi]] were hand-picked by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] Commander-in-Chief [[Admiral]] [[Margaret Orlenda Parangosky|Parangosky]] to serve under [[Serin Osman|Captain Serin Osman]] in a covert operations team designated [[Kilo-Five]]. The team was tasked with sowing discord amongst the now-disorganized [[Sangheili]] by a number of means, including providing arms to the [[Servants of Abiding Truth]], a faction opposed to the [[Covenant separatists|allies]] of [[Thel 'Vadam]].
As part of Kilo-Five, Geffen served aboard {{UNSCShip|Port Stanley}}, participating in several missions. These included the extraction of the ONI agent [[Mike Spenser]] from [[Reynes]], where Geffen and Beloi were involved in a brief firefight with several [[Kig-Yar]] who were attempting to claim the team's dropship for themselves. At one point, Kilo-Five seized the Covenant cargo ship ''[[Piety]]'' and successfully captured a [[Huragok]], [[Requires Adjustment]]. Geffen and Beloi were also present during several arms transactions between Kilo-Five and the Servants of Abiding Truth.
After ONI had established communications with the human survivors inside [[the Sharpened Shield]], Admiral Parangosky ordered Kilo-Five to arrest [[Catherine Elizabeth Halsey|Dr. Catherine Halsey]]. Geffen accompanied the party that entered the shield world via dropship, detained Halsey and brought her, along with the other survivors, aboard ''Port Stanley''.
