Keyes family

From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

Commander Miranda Keyes and her father Captain Jacob Keyes.

The Keyes family was composed of legendary family members who turned the tide of the Human-Covenant War and were remembered as war heroes,[1] with the exception of Dr. Catherine Elizabeth Halsey, who was labeled as a war criminal despite being instrumental in the creation of the Spartan-II Program and Cortana.[2]

History[edit]

Jacob Keyes was born on Earth and had a sister that lived on Dwarka.[3] As a young lieutenant he met with Catherine Halsey who developed the Spartan-II program.[4] The two of them had a child together, Miranda Keyes.[5] Jacob Keyes developed the Keyes Loop tactic and eventually became a renown captain after many years.[1] He died leading the Battle of Installation 04.[6] His daughter Miranda had become a commander and worked closely with the UNSC's leader, Fleet Admiral Lord Terrence Hood,[7] and led the final battle of the Human-Covenant War where she too died in combat.[8]
