"Good luck sir, it's been an honor."
— Jerome-092 to John Forge.

Jerome-092 is a SPARTAN-II Commando of the UNSC Naval Special Warfare Command. He was a member of Red Team and fought alongside the crew of the Spirit of Fire in early 2531. He is thought to be one of the leaders of Red Team.[1]

Biography

Conscription

Jerome was born around 2511 and was of a genetic make-up that the Office of Naval Intelligence and Catherine Elizabeth Halsey were interested in. After being selected as a suitable candidate for the SPARTAN-II Program in 2517, he was abducted and sent to Reach, where he was specially trained to be a soldier by Chief Petty Officer Franklin Mendez. In 2525, he and the other candidates underwent a series of augmentations to improve their physical and mental abilities.[2] Jerome was among the ones that survived and were not crippled or killed by the procedure.

During his training, Jerome quickly proved himself to be one of the program's top candidates. Both Dr. Halsey and CPO Mendez identified him as one of the four emerging leaders of the group, along with Kurt-051, Frederic-104, and John-117.[3]

Battle of Arcadia

Jerome was a member of Red Team during the First Battle of Arcadia and was tasked with stopping the Covenant long enough to evacuate the civilians of Arcadia.[4] Afterward, he and Red Team linked up with forces from the Spirit of Fire and assisted in a counter-attack on a Covenant outpost.[5] Once the plan to infiltrate a large Covenant shield was passed down from Captain James Cutter, he and Red Team remained with the crew to assist with the assignment. He prevented the destruction of several prototype Rhinos while they ensured that the shield was destroyed.[6] After Sergeant John Forge's forces triumphed over a Scarab, the three searched for Covenant survivors in the jungles on a Warthog.[7] Upon hearing that Professor Ellen Anders had been abducted by the Arbiter, they went to the Spirit of Fire which jumped into Slipspace, following the Covenant ship carrying Anders.[8]

Shield World

Later, upon arriving to a Forerunner Shield World, Jerome assisted the Spirit of Fire's crew in neutralizing Covenant and Flood forces.[9] Once Jerome assisted in destroying a Proto-Gravemind[10] he and Red Team became stranded on the planet. With the Spirit of Fire being dragged inside the megastructure, Red Team was assisted by the forces of Sergeant John Forge and successfully withdrew to the ship.[11] Red Team then assisted the crew in scouring the Flood forces from the hull of the Spirit of Fire[12] and successfully repaired the power core when it was damaged.[13]

Once Anders was rescued, he was tasked with ensuring the Spirit of Fire's Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine arrived at the teleporter that would take it to The Apex's command center.[14] In the control center, Jerome, along with Alice-130 and Douglas-042, engaged a large force of Honor Guards while Forge engaged the Arbiter. Once the area was clear, Jerome volunteered to take the slightly-damaged drive in and ensure its destruction. Sergeant Forge, believing that Spartans would play a bigger part in the war than he ever could, took his place. Jerome (with the Spirit of Fire's crew) was then charged with opening the gate which allowed the Spirit of Fire to exit the Shield World.[15]

It is assumed that Jerome, as with the rest of the crew, entered cryo-sleep after the Spirit of Fire escaped the destruction of the Shield World.

Trivia

  • Though he uses a Spartan Laser, the game classifies him as a sniper. This may simply be due to the impressive range the Spartan Laser provides him with during gameplay, or its pinpoint accuracy.
  • Jerome-092's name was inspired by the Campaign Lead of Halo Wars, Jerome K. Jones.[16]
  • Jerome is voiced by voiceover artist and stage actor Crispin Freeman.
  • Jerome would have to be a Petty Officer Third Class for John Forge to outrank him. However, all SPARTAN-IIs became Petty Officers Second Class upon graduation in 2525.
  • McFarlane Toys released an acture figure of Jerome titled "Red Team Leader Mark IV." It was released on March 2nd, 2010 in a boxed set that also includes John-117, an MA5B assault rifle, and an M7057 flamethrower.
  • Jerome's tag number is a possible reference to the number seven, as 0+9-2=7.
  • A faint Legendary symbol can be seen on Jerome's left bicep. This can only be seen in the cutscene at the beginning of Anders' Signal.
