| ===Early life and career===
| |
| Not much is known of Halsey's early life in the Silver timeline, but she had worked on the planet [[Onyx]] in her early days as a UNSC scientist. She later entered a romantic relationship with [[Jacob Keyes/Silver|Jacob Keyes]], with whom she had a daughter, [[Miranda Keyes/Silver|Miranda]], but due to her focus on her work as a UNSC scientist, Halsey's relationships with both Jacob and Miranda soured.

| A brilliant but overly ambitious scientist, Catherine Halsey is devoted to the advancement of humanity, but will often use unethical means to achieve it, such as using and killing a live clone of herself to create [[Cortana/Silver|Cortana]], kidnapping and enlisting children against their will into the [[SPARTAN-II program/Silver|SPARTAN-II program]] before wiping their memories and subjecting them to horrific augmentations, and attempting to replace the human consciousness of the SPARTAN-II's with AI to make them "more controllable", as she attempted to do with [[John-117/Silver|John-117]] and Cortana. This eventually put her at odds with ONI, the UNSC, and even with her SPARTANs when they discovered the truth of their upbringing and her ultimate intentions.

|
| |
| Despite her seemingly cold and unfeeling exterior and tendency to see things through a purely scientific viewpoint, Halsey was not without affection, as she was devastated by Jacob Keyes' death on Reach and still cared deeply about the well-being of her daughter and the SPARTAN-II's.
