By [[2553]] Osman held the rank of [[Captain (Navy)|Captain]]. She was hand picked by Parangosky to lead up a black operations team known as [[Kilo-Five]], which was composed of [[smart AI]] [[Black Box]]; a civilian professor and [[Sangheili]] expert [[Evan Phillips]]; [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper|ODSTs]] [[Malcolm Geffen|Staff Sergeant "Mal" Geffen]], [[Lian Devereaux|Sergeant Lian Devereaux]], [[Vasily Beloi|Corporal "Vaz" Beloi]]; and SPARTAN-II [[Naomi-010]] to ensure Sangheili insurgency.<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''page 74''</ref> Using Phillips, Osman got a meeting in January with [[Avu Med 'Telcam]], a member of the [[Servants of the Abiding Truth]] on [[New Llanelli]].

However, she was approached by [[Tom Muir]], a colonist who had managed to survive on New Llanelli even with the colony's glassing.<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''page 133''</ref> Brought aboard the ship, Osman was angrily questioned by Muir about why she was meeting with the Sangheili.

She went on several missions aiding the [[Servants of the Abiding Truth]] and continuing the insurrection against [[Arbiter]] [[Thel 'Vadam]], and even taking [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Catherine Halsey]] into custody for "committing acts likely to aid the enemy" and meeting with [[Fred-104]], [[Kelly-087]] and [[Linda-058]] and the [[SPARTAN-III program|Spartan-IIIs]] [[Tom-B292]], [[Lucy-B091]], [[Ash-G099]], [[Mark]], [[Olivia]] and Chief Mendez in [[Trevelyan|Shield World 006]]. | She went on several missions aiding the [[Servants of the Abiding Truth]] and continuing the insurrection against [[Arbiter]] [[Thel 'Vadam]], and even taking [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Catherine Halsey]] into custody for "committing acts likely to aid the enemy" and meeting with [[Fred-104]], [[Kelly-087]] and [[Linda-058]] and the [[SPARTAN-III program|Spartan-IIIs]] [[Tom-B292]], [[Lucy-B091]], [[Ash-G099]], [[Mark]], [[Olivia]] and Chief Mendez in [[Trevelyan|Shield World 006]].<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''page 385''</ref> | ||
After 'Telcam began an [[Sangheili civil war|armed insurgency]] against 'Vadam, Parangosky ordered Osman to intervene during the [[Servants of the Abiding Truth]]'s attack on Thel 'Vadam's keep. While the Lord Hood and the UNSC ''Infinity'' openly aided 'Vadam and defeated the attackers, Osman secretly destroyed several of 'Vadam's ships, allowing the Abiding Truth's forces to escape. Her team also rescued Evan Phillips, who had been stranded on Sanghelios previously. She also rescued 'Telcam (much to his anger) from 'Vadam's forces. | After 'Telcam began an [[Sangheili civil war|armed insurgency]] against 'Vadam, Parangosky ordered Osman to intervene during the [[Servants of the Abiding Truth]]'s attack on Thel 'Vadam's keep.

During the later stages of the [[Second Battle of Requiem]], she was contacted by Captain [[Thomas Lasky]], informing her about [[Catherine Halsey|Doctor Halsey]]'s abduction by the [[Promethean]] [[Promethean Knight|Knights]]. She had been recommended to either keep Halsey in confinement or have her executed, but instead chose neither. Questioning the doctor's loyalties, Osman followed Parangosky's advice and ordered Lasky to execute Doctor Halsey after years of reluctance.<ref name="Expendable">'''[[Spartan Ops]]''', [[S1/Expendable|S1E8 ''Expendable'']]</ref> | By [[2558]], Osman has risen to the rank of [[Admiral]] and had taken [[Parangosky]]'s place as head of the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]].
