===Early life and training===

Roma was a genetically, intellectually, and physically gifted child chosen for the [[SPARTAN-II]] project. She was abducted by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] and replaced with a [[flash clone]] when she was around six years old. She and seventy-four other children were taken to [[Reach]] in the [[Epsilon Eridani system]]. There, she was trained by the [[dumb AI|"dumb" AI]], [[Déjà]] and [[Chief Petty Officer]] [[Franklin Mendez]], with the two serving as the Spartans' teacher and drill instructor, respectively. Roma was placed on [[Black Team]] along with [[Otto-031]], [[Margaret-053]], and [[Victor-101]]. In [[2519]], she was taken alongside her fellow trainees to a [[Military Wilderness Training Preserve]] for a mission that required each trainee to be left alone in the woods with a only a single piece of a map. It was up to them to find one another so that they could piece the map together and locate the designated extraction point. The mission was ultimately a success. At another point during training, Roma and the others traveled to [[Emerald Cove]] for an underwater mission. There, they abandoned Mendez and lived on their own on an island for a few days. By [[2523#July|July 14, 2523]], Roma and her fellow Spartan-IIs had begun facing the formidable and ruthless [[UNSC Marine Corps]]' [[Tango Company]] in simulated [[War Games|war games]].
