"'''Hocus'''" was the callsign for a [[UNSC Navy]] [[pilot]] who served on operations on [[Battle of Earth|Earth]] and on the [[Battle of Installation 00|Ark]]. She was rated as a dropship pilot, flying a [[D77H-TCI Pelican]] designated [[Kilo 023]].
'''Hocus''' was a [[Pelican]] [[pilot]] in the [[UNSC Navy]] during the [[Second Battle of Earth]]. She was stationed at the UNSC Crow's Nest base, before being stationed aboard the [[UNSC]] [[frigate]] ''[[ UNSC Forward Unto Dawn]]'', piloting Pelican [[Kilo 023]]. When flying from Crow's Nest, she rescued the Master Chief who was pinned down by a couple of phantoms after rescuing Sergeant Johnson and a squad of captured marines. Hocus participated in numerous ground insertions during the Battle of the [[Ark]], including a mission to deactivate the barriers of the Ark's control room.


==Biography==
It is unknown if she died or not, since the game did not mention her after the level, [[The Covenant (Level)|The Covenant]]. It is likely she survived and was returned to Earth along with the rest of the remaining humans and Elites stationed over [[Installation 00]].
She assisted in extracting [[SPARTAN-II Program|SPARTAN]] [[John-117]] and [[Sergeant Major]] [[Avery Junior Johnson|Avery Johnson]], along with a squad of liberated [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]], from the jungle near [[Mount Kilimanjaro]]. Following the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] attack on Crow's Nest, Hocus was instrumental in evacuating the rest of the survivors of the attack to the human frigate ''{{UNSCShip|Forward Unto Dawn}}''. She participated in numerous ground insertions during the [[Battle of Installation 00]], such as deactivating the [[barrier tower|shield barriers]] surrounding the [[Installation 00|Ark]]'s [[Control Room]].


==Trivia==
== Trivia ==
*Hocus is voiced by actor [[Wikipedia:Debra Wilson|Debra Wilson]], widely recognized for her work on the sketch comedy show [[Wikipedia:Mad TV|''Mad TV'']].<ref>'''''[[Halo 3]]''''', [[Halo 3 credits|Credits]]</ref>
*She is erroneously depicted throughout ''Halo 3'' with a randomized male UNSC Marine pilot character model.


==List of appearances==
*Hocus has a very similar role to that of [[Foehammer]], a Pelican pilot in the first Halo game.
*''[[Halo 3]]'' {{1st}}
*Using a glitch in the last level of Halo 3 will cause Johnson to sometimes yell "I did this for Hocus!"  This may suggest a relationship between the two.
*Viewing the level Sierra 117 through the theater you can enter the cockpit of the pelican (by going through the hatch and then through the door to the cockpit) to see that the bodies piloting the pelican are male despite Hocus being female.
