Serial Number

The last part of the article said: "the closest thing "resemlbing" 3 is 8", but it doesn't have to "resemble" the number. It could be the number right next to it, so his serial number might be: 024 or 044. --Uneven elephant 16:41, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

ive just finished reading FoR for like the 10th time. his serial no. is 34. this gets shown when keys is reviewing the notes on slipspace on the "iroquois", just before the battle of Sigma Octanus. the slipspace article/paper is written by one "Fhajad 34"Triggerhappymole 09:43, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Lieutenant Commander???

When did spartan-084 become a Lieutenant Commander? Was that when he was with ONI? I thought Kurt was the only spartan to recieve that rank. James-001 05:37, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

He didn't get promoted until after he washed out from Spartan-II. -ED 21:14, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

yep. he washed out but was still able to plan missions and the like. since he is a spartan he is good enough to be promoted quickly to Lt Cmdr. oh and his serial no is 34Triggerhappymole 09:44, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Parkinson's disease

The UNSC can cure cancer in an hour, and they can't cure Parkinson's disease? --Nup^(T) 11:36, August 9, 2010 (UTC)

Looks like it. There is no source on curing it, while the cure for cancer became Canon after Halo: ODST was released.--Chairman Jack the BlackFile:COGskull.jpg 11:48, August 9, 2010 (UTC)

Shaking

Why was Fhajad shaking at the funeral ceremony? Wouldn't he have been on medication, like dopamine? Tuckerscreator^(stalk) 14:05, 6 May 2011 (EDT)

Why would he have been high at the funeral? :/ No, but seriously, probably he wanted to be sober for the funeral of his best friends. And on another note, in ilovebees, it says that the SPARTANs were autopsied and their brains were taken for AI creation. But doesn't that contradict Halo: The Fall of Reach? Vegerot (talk) 16:04, 6 May 2011 (EDT)

Either it had no effect on him or he was too arrogant to take medication, wanting to prove that he was capable of becoming a SPARTAN. I don't recall ilb contradicting FoR in that part. Unless 343i managed to make more inconsistencies, of course. -- Forerunner 16:09, 6 May 2011 (EDT)

@Forerunner: It was in the original FoR. It mentions him shaking as he tried to salute.

@Vegerot: Dopamine is not the same as dope. Dopamine is a chemical that our bodies produce naturally every time we feel happy. "Dope" is more of that chemical, and all drugs are based on increasing its output, but "dopamine" is regularly used as an inhibitor for Parkinson's today. It's the same reason why Michael J. Fox was shaking during his meeting before the Senate in 1998 but seems fine other times, because he had chosen not to take his medication that day. Tuckerscreator^(stalk) 17:56, 6 May 2011 (EDT)

Dopamine, as used to treat Parkinson's disease, can cause drowsiness, hallucinations, nausea, and other unpleasant side effects; I'm sure that Fhajad wanted to be at his best during his friends' funeral, even if he had to fight through pain to do it. With regard to the autopsies, I don't recall ILB saying that the washouts from the class of 2525 had their brains removed, only that Yasmine's - a 2545 washout - was used to create Melissa. Even if it does, that part has been retconned. In her journal, Halsey talks about how the washouts' bodies were placed "on ice" in the hope that they may some day be resuscitated. Thus, the "burial" in space was a symbolic ruse; the SPARTANs assumed that their comrades' bodies were being jettisoned, though they were actually in ONI's custody. --"Government big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have." -Thomas Jefferson 19:04, 6 May 2011 (EDT)

Maybe, but those symptoms take time to develop. This was just after augmentations. Hm. Maybe the augmentations had some other effect that might them impractical at this time period? Tuckerscreator^(stalk) 19:12, 6 May 2011 (EDT)

That's certainly possible. Fhajad's metabolism likely would have been radically altered by the procedures, so giving him drugs right away could have had dire consequences. --"Government big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have." -Thomas Jefferson 19:15, 6 May 2011 (EDT)

Very true. Should it be noted on the page? Tuckerscreator^(stalk) 20:13, 6 May 2011 (EDT)
