Together, they are able to detect movement, light and color, and relay that information back to the brain. [12], The SPARTAN-IIs are capable of lifting three times their body weight, which is double the normal weight of an average human dueto the ceramic bone augmentations, in addition to their increased muscle density. Her independent conclusions predicted an even darker future than Carver's model, with UNSC inaction against the rebel leadership resulting in a minimum of thirty years of war and five billion dead; the maximum was a conflict of indeterminate length potentially leading to the downfall of human civilization. [25] Following the ceasefire, the surviving Spartan-IIs were offered the choice of integrating into the newly formed Spartan Operations branch along with the remaining Spartan-IIIs. [9] The report rationalized that the instability would continue to escalate, and unless drastic military measures were taken, would result in a massive war between the Inner and Outer Colonies. The pilot's body is rendered immobile to prevent self-injury and agony is inflicted in exchange for superior control of the ship. Rather than be buried or cremated their bodies were cryogenically preserved with the hopes of one day reviving these candidates. Alteration of bioeletrical nerve transduction to shielded electronic transduction. Spartan-I candidate James James (formerly James Lee) had a child named Janissary James who had some of the genetic augmentations her father had. [27], In 2557, after being missing in action for nearly five years, John-117 stopped the Ur-Didact's attack on Earth after linking up with the UNSC Infinity on Requiem. that the true name of the "Engineer" species is. After Reach fell, there weren't enough Spartans left. In the Halo Legends episode Odd One Out, SPARTAN-1337 was active and participated in combat at Cronkee. [5], The augmentation procedures themselves took place aboard Medical Facility Endurance in orbit over Reach and began on March 9, 2525.[7]. [3] However, he ended up trapped in space on the back half of the UNSC Forward Unto Dawn and was declared missing in action. [8][9], Only a few months after augmentation procedures, the SPARTAN-IIs were noted of being capable of running at speeds exceeding 55 km/h or 34.2mph. John subsequently reunited with Blue Team who faced the Didact again shortly afterward; after defeating the Promethean for the second time,[28] the team continued to serve in the field in a number of classified operations. In this episode: Are Spartan-II Augmentations Possible? So stop this non-sense about their augs being inferior when they were actually much more technologically advanced and safer. Are Spartan-II Augmentations Possible? 11% of subjects could face retinal rejection and detachment causing permanent blindness. All Spartans receive upgrades equally for Tier 1 and 3 but only in Tier 2 will each Spartan receive their personal weapon based on the Leader that the player picked. [6] [11] Following the augmentation procedures, recovery and subsequent training usually lasted several months. [20], The results of the augmentations on the successful candidates were unprecedented; the SPARTAN-IIs performed well beyond the projected capabilities. However, they did encourage the UNSC to continue research into human enhancement. Submergence and boosted blood vessel flow beneath the rods and cones of the subject's retina. Among those who survived was Nicole-458. And the Infinity wasn't even complete when the war ended, so the idea that the UNSC was suddenly going to pack millions of people into it and run away is similarly . [84] The Office of Naval Intelligence would ultimately cancel Class II due to the lack of sufficient candidates. The second goal was to minimize civilian casualties and avert civil war. [41] The 2547 CAA Factbook entry on the Spartans states that the supersoldiers are "recruited from all corners of UNSC governed space" and that "each of them is a highly decorated veteran with literal decades of combat experience", but omits the program's ethically problematic background. This narrowed the candidates down to children who would be raised and taught in the art of warfare and military values, from a young age. The Spartan-IIs attend the funeral for those killed in the augmentations. Can you be a Spartan? [88], In Halo Wars, Spartan-IIs are infantry units for the UNSC faction. [33][Note 5] During the Battle of Installation 04, a 41 year old MJOLNIR armored John-117 flipped a Warthog and later broke the skull of a Sangheili soldier with his fist, after it was weakened by a grenade. [35], In February 2559, after 28 years of drifting in space the UNSC Spirit of Fire found its way to the Forerunner Installation 00, also known as the Ark. Their reaction times are significantly faster in combat situations or with A.I. Human biochemical experiments and enhancement procedures have been a part of society dating back to the 20th century. The task of screening for such DNA structures was astronomical, and to properly screen for the correct genetic markers would require thirty-nine billion records. [62], The majority of the Spartan-IIs serve under Naval Special Weapons,[1][2] a division of the UNSC Special Forces with heavy ties to Section Three of the Office of Naval Intelligence, which initiated and operated the SPARTAN-II program. In. 300% increase in subject reflexes. Their hard training was complemented with high-level education, which included mathematics, science, history, reading, writing, and military tactics. [6], Despite the tremendous risk and the unethical means of creating new soldiers, ORION Generation II was greenlit by the top brass within the Office of Naval Intelligence, who concluded that the lives that could be saved far outweighed the risks involved. [5], The first major effort to create biochemically-augmented supersoldiers was known as Project ORION. Although the chemicals work on a molecular level, they do not work on a genetic level, as targeted mutagenesis is impossible using chemicals alone. 2% of subjects acquire elephantiasis. However, these augmentations would kill or cripple half of the Spartan II's, so only 33 out of the 75 were fit for duty afterwards. [8] Chemical augmentations have their own risks dependent upon the subject's genetic background and how they adjust to the alteration of cells and molecules and to a more physical point, tissue growth. [46] He was allowed to return to civilian life and joined the Marine Corps by the age of twenty. [26] Some Spartan-IIs are known to have taken part in the training of Spartan-IV personnel. Once completed, the natural bonding of the skeleton to the ceramic layer continues while other stabilising and therapeutic procedures are performed. Some effects like increased healing rate don't seem to be explained by the stated augs so the likelihood of aditional augmentaions is quite high, The subject could have experienced bleeding eyes, intense pain, constant headaches, and aches in the bones. The Spartan IIs were trained for 6 years with an extra year after augmentation, and were pushed to the limits of human ability but were intended to be capable of being Officers, and taught education as well as tactics. Determined to prevent the predicted carnage, Halsey agreed to work for ONI, specifically Section III's Special Projects Division, on creating a solution.[6]. [32], On September 1, 2558, Gray Team were awakened from cryo and found themselves in the middle of a battle between two Sangheili factions, a Jiralhanae faction and the citizens of Suraka on the planet Carrow. Technologically, however, the new augmentations represented a major improvement over the previous program, while being cheaper than before: much less surgery was required, with most of the enhancements administered via chemical means. The process consisted of many injections and surgeries. The result of these programs, however, has yet to be determined. [12][13], The San'Shyuum in the Covenant used genetic enhancement techniques to augment a number of San'Shyuum into elite supersoldiers known as Prelates. [22][29] SPARTAN-IIs are also known for their sharp eyesight, their occipital capillary reversal allowing them to virtually see in the dark. [67][68][69] However, with the original Spartan-II group dispersed across the battlefields of the Covenant War over the decades, certain team arrangements became more established than others. Following the Battle of Installation 04, the survivors returned to Reach and were able to rendezvous with the remaining Spartans. Linda-058. She followed up her maneuver by using the Mongoose as an improvised hammer, smashing three Grunts into the ground, pulverizing them into "explosions of purple blood", until the ATV's "..wheels had all bounced off, the chassis warped, and finally snapped". I see a number of people claim the S3's weren't augmented as well as the S2's. I also see claims that Noble Team had inferior armor to John and the other S2's, or that Jorge is an inferior S2 and is older than John. John-117 was outfitted with this upgrade due to his need to carry the AI Cortana on a mission to capture the Covenant leadership. It would seem likely that Chief would not be able to see the "pilot of the lead banshee slump" or a Blood stain large enough to be visible in the cockpit unless the banshees cowlings were open even before they were shot down by Linda. Every day the subject performs stretches, isometric exercises, light sparring drills and consumes five high-protein meals. At least some of the candidates who were crippled may have been physically rehabilitated in later years.[6]. [11], During the occipital capillary reversal, a neurosurgeon cuts out a small space in the skull, exposing the brain. Of these, Serin-019 and Ralph-103 were maimed by the procedures. 'Rdomnai had the two replaced with prostheses, despite robotic replacements being antithetical to Covenant tradition and principles. Later research proved difficult for other mental, adrenal and neural enhancement procedures to be used on the SPARTAN-IIs because of their unacceptable failure rates. The survivors then carried out a raid that resulted in the destruction of a Covenant fleet anchorage, stalling a Covenant plan to invade Earth. As the exploits of the Spartans were a major propaganda boon to the UNSC, Section II of the Office of Naval Intelligence issued Directive 930,[16] which stated that Spartans killed or wounded would be listed as "missing in action" (MIA) or "wounded in action" (WIA), thus maintaining the illusion of the Spartans' invincibility. . This specialized version of the neural interface is implanted into the skull of a Spartan-II. [40] Fostering this accomplishment, Spartan-IIs donning Mjolnir have in many instances been shown as capable of throwing armored Jiralhanae from their vehicles. In 2547,[15] the SPARTAN-II program was revealed to the public in an effort to boost morale among the UNSC. Due to their parents' augmentations, the Spartan 1.1s had to receive injections in order to ensure normal growth without defects. Illustration of the rods and cones of the human eye. Combined with the Spartans' intelligence, seamless teamwork and unyielding drive for success, the augmentations made them nearly unstoppable against any conventional combatant. After being kidnapped and sedated, the Spartan-II candidates were taken to the colony world Reach, where they began their training under Chief Petty Officer Franklin Mendez and the AI Dj, who also acted as an aide for Halsey on the program. The healing process takes anywhere from weeks to months, depending upon each individual subject's rate of recovery. To complement their biological augmentation, the SPARTAN-IIs were given state-of-the-art MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor which interfaces with the wearer's nervous system and greatly boosts their strength and speed. The rank of the aforementioned Sangheili is not known. A Spartan is equipped with energy shields, can wield different weapons, command friendly vehicles, hijack enemy ones, and gain up to 14 veterancy points while other units cap at 3. The effect of the muscles increasing in density is said to make the subject feel like their entire body is on fire, mixed with the feeling of "plated glass shattering" and being worked in the subject's body. The reaction time increase for example is closer to 1000% and that's even before Spartan time kicks in. Red Flag was also basically a hail mary even the Spartans weren't sure would work. He taught the Spartans how to kill, but at the same time he taught them the difference between right and wrong. They received the harshest and best augmentations, and the best quality of training. Specific risk for pre-and near-postpubescent adolescents: skeletal growth spurts may cause irreparable bone pulverization. [90] They count as hero units and therefore cannot be killed, only knocked out and slowly healing until they are revived. Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe, Halo: The Fall of Reach - The Animated Series, https://www.halopedia.org/index.php?title=Project_ASTER&oldid=1567023. The candidate's bones are exposed via surgery or procedurally sequential surgeries. These augmentations had a high rate of failure, and out of the 75 recruits who underwent them, only 33 passed through, unscathed, although ONI had secretly listed some Spartans as killed during augmentations, with them using the Spartans for different uses other than the mainstream ones, such as Black Team. There were too few candidates that were in sync with her age and genetic restriction protocols and a majority of her funding was going towards Mjolnir maintenance and construction; this left little room for continued training efforts. Blue Team being briefed on the mission to rescue Dr. Halsey in Halo Legends: The Package. Superconducting Fibrification of Neural Dendrites. However, the Spartans who did survive became the most effective soldiers to be ever fielded by humanity, with superhuman strength, reflexes and stamina as well as virtually unbreakable bones. Carver's findings. The SPARTAN-II program was the first major success of the SPARTAN programs, an effort to produce elite soldiers through mechanical and biological augmentation. The Class of 2537 has not been referenced in any official media barring the quasi-canonical, Last edited on February 8, 2023, at 23:00, Seal of the President of the United States, Halo: The Fall of Reach - The Animated Series, Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe, https://www.halopedia.org/index.php?title=SPARTAN-II_program&oldid=1569384, Class I: 75 before augmentation; 33+ after augmentation. [3][4], Since the dawn of widespread spaceflight, humans have sought to use biochemical, surgical and cybernetic means to augment their bodies. In the ensuing disaster, most of the Spartan-IIs were killed, although some took shelter in ONI's CASTLE Base. Protein complex is injected intramuscularly to increase tissue density and decrease lactase recovery time. Two escaped aboard the UNSC Pillar of Autumn, one of whom was place in cryostasis aboard the ship after sustaining life-threatening injuries during the battle on Gamma Station. As a result, they were not on the ship when it was attacked by the Banished and the Master Chief was thrown into space. [4], The side effects of completing the augmentations varied, as the subject's brain re-learned how to move their body with faster reflexes and stronger muscles. The new augmentation set encompassed enhancements derived from those given to the Spartan-IIs. The thirty-three SPARTAN-IIs that were able to accomplish all this are without any serious physiological or mental instabilities.[21]. The only known candidate who was not conscripted was Caleb Aagard, who would have been designated SPARTAN-095. Most of them do not hold grudges over their abduction and treatment, instead having come to embrace their lives as a Spartan as both a necessity and something they were born to do. The majority of these former candidates were later reassigned to the Office of Naval Intelligence. [4] Early analysis concluded that next-generation candidates must have "more malleable, robust DNA structure and repair enzymes," this being based on the fundamental flaw of the augmentation procedures performed on the ORION soldiers. [22], An illustration detailing the muscular augmentations performed on a Spartan-II's arm, A screen monitoring Carter-A259's CHRYSANTHEMUM augmentations, SPARTAN-IV Sarah Palmer undergoing her augmentations, An overview of the Spartan-IVs' augmentations, Prelate Tem'Bhetek, an augmented San'Shyuum, https://www.halopedia.org/index.php?title=Biological_augmentation&oldid=1531962. However, she died during the augmentation procedures. Ultimately John-117 would eliminate the Covenant leadership with the help of the Flood and Thel 'Vadam, effectively defeating the Covenant and ending the war. Although the subject is in a state of unconsciousness during the procedure, they may experience excruciating pain. The process of augmenting the SPARTAN-IIs was divided into two parts, surgical procedures and injection procedures. Candidates of prepubescent age were screened based on genetic markers/SNPs that are linked to positive fitness and decreased disease incidence. The early composition of Red Team: Douglas-042, Jerome-092 and Alice-130, spent most of the war in cryo-sleep and were not awakened until 2559, nearly six years after the war's end. The ORION augmentations included enhancements to muscle density, lung capacity, vision, hearing and balance. One of the essential and most dangerous aspects of the SPARTAN-II program was the biological augmentation procedures. [7], As time went on, the side effects for successful subjects diminished either completely or to the point where it was considered mild. The Forerunners used artificially-induced mutations consisting of a combination of genetic engineering, gene therapy and biochemical manipulation to custom-tailor an individual's body to a form considered suited for their social standing and field of work in a rate. Sixteen Spartan-IIs are known to have survived the Covenant War: John-117, Frederic-104, Kelly-087, Linda-058, Naomi-010, Jai-006, Adriana-111, Michael-120, Leon-011, Robert-025, August-099, Randall-037, Otto-031, Victor-101, Margaret-053, and Roma-143; the last five have since been killed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7Aj. Once the subject has been sedated, he or she is transported from the pre-op wing of the facility to another area where the surgical procedures are performed. INTRODUCTION Sangheili have drugs that are used not only for healing, but also for memory improvement and for dealing with anxiety. The subject may experience bleeding from the eyes, constant headaches, and aches in the bones. [29][30] Team Black was stationed on Installation 03,[31] until they were killed by the Didact, dwindling the known number of active Spartan-IIs at the moment, down to eight. Vannak-134. As the hormone is released into the body the pellet dissolves and is absorbed. At some point, the Spartans' memories of their past from before entering the program were sealed away by Dr. Catherine Halsey. [34], During Operation: FIRST STRIKE, John-117 fought a Jiralhanae in close-quarters combat and successfully killed it through the use of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and a grenade, despite being physically over-powered by it. The III's were war orphans who volunteered. Seeing as MJOLNIR has never been directly shown to automatically increase the sprint speed of a Spartan without the assistance of an. This new threat accelerated the Spartans' training to its final phase: Project MJOLNIR. Superconducting Fibrification of Neural Dendrites. [30] The Spartans joined forces with local militia and remnants of one of the Sangheili groups to protect civilians from the Jiralhanae invaders. This thread is archived During one of his missions, he lost his left arm and left mandibles. Mendez trained the Spartans until 2525 when, at the age of fourteen, they would go through the toughest part of their training: the biological augmentation procedures, which would kill 30 of the 75 conscripted children and cripple twelve others who would "wash out" of the SPARTAN-II program, going on to join the Office of Naval Intelligence. Spartan II Spartan II's were kidnapped at the age of 6/7 and trained to become super soldiers. [72] However, at least one of the candidates allegedly killed by the augmentation procedures actually lived and were pressed into ONI service, their survival kept secret from their peers. By the time the Human-Covenant War had ended, new techniques had been developed, allowing adults to be augmented without major risk. This allowed the creation of much larger numbers of supersoldiers than before, although the procedures still had to be performed at the onset of puberty. In order to maintain morale among the other forces of the UNSC, the Office of Naval Intelligence created Directive 930. [24][Note 2], The SPARTAN-IIs were capable of lifting at least three times their body weight without the aid of their MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor[Note 3] when they were 14 years old. The following is the list of all known Spartan-II subjects conscripted in 2517. She considered several other "bellicose" names, including Praetorians, Landsknecht, Immortals, Minutemen, Titans, Argonauts, Odysseus, Olympians, Zulu, Kronos, Promethean, Armor, Nemesis, Daedalus, Hercules, Viking, and Hyperion; the latter two were quickly excluded.[6]. The Spartan III project had multiple generations. [38] During Operation: JOVIAN WHISTLE, Fred-104 successfully struck an Aggressor Sentinel to the ground and physically stalemated the drone as it started to push him around. Illustration of augmented skeletal muscle. They can be built from a Barracks and are perhaps the most versatile units in the game. [7] Former ORION project member Avery Johnson remembers the experience as being agonizing filled with confusing, hormone-inducing rages. [48], However single-minded many outsiders view them as, the Spartan-IIs remain independent thinkers;[49] from early on, Dr. Halsey's intent was to mold the candidates into effective soldiers through "persuasion and acclimation" as opposed to the brainwashing suggested by some of her colleagues within ONI, believing that in order to be truly efficient the Spartans must be able to properly understand and embrace the significance of their mission. The Mjolnir armor was created in parallel to the SPARTAN-II project and is the most technologically advanced piece of hardware in human hands. Significant instances of Parkinson's Disease and Fletcher's Syndrome. A scan of John-117's brain during the augmentation procedures. A Spartan-II candidate who died during augmentations. [7], Initiated by Colonel James Ackerson, the SPARTAN-III program built upon Dr. Halsey's pioneering work on the preceding SPARTAN-II project. [41][42], Spartan-IIs require augmentation maintenance. [16] The Spartans' prowess was not lost on the Covenant, who came to fear, and in the case of the Sangheili, respect the Spartans as Demons. [6], Dr. Halsey's use of cloning, following the dissemination of information on the project to the rest of ONI, came to be regarded one of the most controversial decisions involved with the program. [5] The next was memory and cognitive enhancements; these were rejected based on the mental instabilities that could occur. The artificial intelligence construct Cortana, carried within John-117's Mark V Mjolnir armor, would serve as the strike force's hacker and technology specialist. [8][13], The carbide ceramic ossification is performed last due to the aforementioned complications with post-grafting bone growth.
