Tom Uberti

"Poor Tom..."
"Poor Tom?! He almost got us killed!"

— Sadie Endesha and Mike Branley, after Tom's death.

Tom Uberti was a salesman in New Mombasa and was present during the First Battle of Earth.

He was first, and only, heard in a few of the audio logs found throughout the streets of New Mombasa. He hitched a ride in the Olifant that Sadie and Mike were using to move through Covenant-occupied New Mombasa. When he overheard that some of the Covenant species were friendly, he overreacted and opened the Olifant's top hatch and tried to 'negotiate' with a nearby Wraith. Sadie and Mike rushed out of the Olifant as the Wraith obliterated it, killing Tom instantly.

Trivia

• It is possible, however unlikely, that his last name is a reference to the word Über.
