[[File:Young Miranda.png|left|thumb|200px|Dr. Halsey's sketches of a young Miranda.]]
Miranda Halsey was born in [[2525]] to [[Catherine Elizabeth Halsey]] and [[Jacob Keyes]]. She lived with her mother until [[2531]], when she was sent to live with her father because her mother felt that she could not provide the care her daughter deserved. In the following years she changed her last name to Keyes.<ref name="change">'''Halo: Reach''', ''Dr. Halsey's personal journal'' ("April 6, 2550"; ''"Initially, she likely joined the military to impress her father; after all, she had her name legally changed."'')</ref> She would live on [[Luna]], where her father taught at the [[Academy at Mare Nubium]], or Luna Officer Candidate School.<ref name="journal"/> Miranda was accepted to the Academy's pre-enlistment training at age 16, being the second-youngest to ever have attended the school. After graduating with honors, she immediately requested assignment to active duty.<ref name="news">'''[[Halo: Reach Limited Edition]]''', ''[[Intersystem News]], LCDR Miranda Keyes Awarded Silver Star''</ref>
Miranda Halsey was born on [[2525#February|February 28, 2525]] on the planet [[Reach]] where her mother, [[Catherine Halsey|Doctor Catherine Elizabeth Halsey]], lived and worked.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=WaypointHalsey}}{{Ref/Reuse|Id=Enc22P91}}{{Ref/NoteReuse|Birthworld}} Though Miranda occupied Catherine's every non-working thought,{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS22|HSS|Chapter=22}} there were many periods during her first year of life where her mother was absent. Barely a month after giving birth the doctor had left the [[Epsilon Eridani system]], bound for [[Lambda Serpentis system|Lambda Serpentis]] by March 30. The ship she had departed aboard, the {{UNSCShip|Atlas}}, was still patrolling that system by April 22.{{Ref/Novel|Id=TFoR7|TFoR|Chapter=7}} And even after she finally did return to Reach, it was not long before Miranda's mother found herself leaving once more for [[Sargasso]], this time in pursuit of [[Daisy-023|a runaway]] [[Spartan]] trainee.{{Ref/Film|Id=Home|HLeg|Episode=Homecoming}} Another distraction pulled her away later that year and though as of September 11 she had only just returned, she left the planet again the very next morning and didn't come back until November 2. Catherine had only a few days during which she could see her daughter after that, because [[Human-Covenant War|emerging circumstances]] outside of her control took her offworld for a final time that year on November 6. For several months in early [[2526]], Catherine would join the Spartans of [[Blue Team|Blue]], [[Gold Team|Gold]], and [[Green Team]]s on [[Operation: SILENT STORM]], once again leaving Miranda in the care of others.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS5|HSS|Chapter=5}}{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS27|HSS|Chapter=27}}


She lived with her mother on [[Reach]] until [[2531]] at the age of six, when she was sent to live with her father because her mother felt that she could not provide the care her daughter deserved. In the following years she changed her last name to Keyes.{{Ref/Reuse|name}} She would live in an apartment at [[Mare Insularum]] on [[Luna]], where her father taught at the [[Academy at Mare Nubium]], or Luna Officer Candidate School.<ref name="journal">'''[[Halo: Reach]]''', ''[[Dr. Halsey's personal journal]]''</ref><ref>'''[[Halo: The Cole Protocol]]''', ''page 36''</ref> Dr. Halsey attempted to dissuade Miranda from joining the UNSC military, to no avail.<ref name="apr 6">'''Dr. Halsey's personal journal''', ''April 6, 2550''</ref> Miranda was accepted to the Academy's pre-enlistment training at age 16, being the second-youngest to ever have attended the school.

She was assigned to the {{UNSCShip|Hilbert}}, an older, unarmed science vessel. Despite this, the ship was used by Keyes to play a critical role in battle. In the following years, Keyes spent most of her time in the front lines, playing a crucial advisory role in the coordination of several major offensive strikes against Covenant targets. This proved invaluable to her as she quickly rose through the ranks of the UNSC. Throughout her career, she was forced to confront accusations of nepotism from those who ascribed her rapid rise in rank to the position and influence of her father, Jacob Keyes.<ref name="news"/>


[[File:Miranda with Father.png|thumb|200px|A sketch from Halsey's journal depicting Miranda with her father.]]
In [[2550#April|April 2550]], Miranda was promoted to the rank of [[Lieutenant Commander]] in a promotion ceremony at downtown [[Quezon]] on [[Reach]]. [[Fleet Admiral]] [[Terrence Hood]] also personally awarded her the [[Silver Star]], and it was announced that she would assume command of the [[UNSC frigate]] ''In Amber Clad''. Immediately following the ceremony, Keyes was deployed back to active duty, having been able to postpone a mandatory leave required for those receiving high-ranking promotions.<ref name="news"/>
She was assigned to the {{UNSCShip|Hilbert}}, an older, unarmed science vessel patrolling the outer reaches of UNSC-controlled space. This was due to her mother's influence, who wanted to keep Miranda out of harm's way.{{Ref/Reuse|apr 6}} Despite this, the ship was used by Keyes to play a critical role in the [[Battle of Gamma Pavonis VII]], ramming the ''Hilbert'' into a [[Covenant destroyer]]. Keyes was one of two of the ship's crew to make it to the escape pods. In the following years, Keyes spent most of her time in the front lines, playing a crucial advisory role in the coordination of several major offensive strikes against Covenant targets. This proved invaluable to her as she quickly rose through the ranks of the UNSC. Throughout her career, she was forced to confront accusations of nepotism from those who ascribed her rapid rise in rank to the position and influence of her father, Jacob Keyes.{{Ref/Reuse|news}}


Throughout her life, Miranda harbored a resentment for her estranged mother, and she stopped answering Halsey's letters at one point after having her name changed.{{Ref/Reuse|news}} At some point while she was a Midshipman, she sent her mother a message, stating that she was somewhat aware of what Dr. Halsey [[SPARTAN-II program|had done]]. She promised to keep who her mother was a secret, simply because she didn't want her father associated with what she had done. She ended the message promising to make sure she would take after him.<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''page 186''</ref> A rare exception to her silence was when she invited her mother to her promotion ceremony, although Halsey did not come.{{Ref/Reuse|apr 6}} According to AI [[Black-Box]], Miranda kept a journal [[Dr. Halsey's personal journal|like Halsey did]], and wondered how Dr. Halsey would feel if she read it.<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''page 148''</ref>
In [[2552]], she accepted her father's posthumous [[Colonial Cross]] on ''[[Cairo Station]]'' immediately before the [[Battle of Earth]].

In [[2552]], she accepted her father's posthumous [[Colonial Cross]] on ''[[Cairo Station (station)|Cairo Station]]'' immediately before the [[Battle of Earth]]. At this time, she was assigned to the Medii Battle Group of the [[UNSC Home Fleet]].{{Ref/Reuse|evg}} By this point she had achieved the rank of [[Commander]] at a young age.  
At the start of the Battle of Earth, Miranda's vessel was docked at Cairo Station, so that she could receive her father's honors.  During the awards ceremony, the station was attacked and boarded.  Miranda fought her way to her ship with the help of [[Sergeant Major]] [[Avery Johnson]], several [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] and the [[John-117|Master Chief]], the latter of whom, also repelled [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] boarders along the way. As the Covenant armada began the invasion of Earth, she took ''In Amber Clad'' down to [[New Mombasa]], where she dispatched multiple [[D77-TC|Pelican]] dropships with Marines to join the massive battle with the Covenant in progress there.

===Battle for Earth===
During the battle, ''In Amber Clad'' was one of the only vessels close enough to follow the High [[Prophet of Regret]] when his [[Assault Carrier]], ''[[Solemn Penance]]'' entered [[Slipspace]] inside the city. The resulting shockwave of the in-atmosphere Slipspace jump destroyed a large portion of the city.

The ''In Amber Clad'' "piggy-backed" the Prophet of Regret's Assault Carrier through Slipspace and ended up at [[Installation 05]]. There, she sent a [[platoon]] of [[ODST]]s to assist the Master Chief in his pursuit of the Prophet of Regret in order to capture or kill him. Once she learned of the Prophet of Regret's plan to activate Delta Halo, she ordered the Master Chief to assassinate him.


[[File:H2A - In Amber Clad bridge.jpg|300px|thumb|left|Commander Keyes commanding her ship.]]
Meanwhile, Keyes and Johnson went to the [[Library]] of Halo, accompanied by most of the standard Marines of the ship. They attempted to retrieve the [[Index]], and, although Keyes was successful, most of the Marines were killed or infected by the Flood. Once Keyes and Johnson had the Index, they were ambushed by [[Arbiter (character)|Thel 'Vadamee]]. Johnson was knocked out, but Keyes was able to take down Arbiter's shields with dual SMGs before also being knocked unconscious. Seconds later, Keyes and Johnson were taken from the Arbiter by [[Tartarus]] and his band of [[Jiralhanae|Brutes]] . The Brutes then took Keyes and Johnson to [[High Charity]], where they met the High [[San 'Shyuum|Prophet]]s of [[Truth]] and [[Mercy]]. They were then taken aboard separate [[Phantom]] dropships and were transported to Delta Halo's surface.
The ''In Amber Clad'' "piggy-backed" the Prophet of Regret's assault carrier through slipspace and ended up at [[Installation 05]] in the [[Coelest system]]. Unable to engage the assault carrier by herself, she sent a [[platoon]] of [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper]]s to assist the Master Chief in his pursuit of the Prophet of Regret in order to capture or kill him.<ref>'''Halo 2''', campaign level ''[[Delta Halo]]''</ref> Once she learned of the Prophet of Regret's plan to activate Delta Halo, she ordered the Master Chief to assassinate him. Miranda sent orders for Johnson and his Marines to get the [[Activation Index]] before the Covenant could.<ref>'''Halo 2''', campaign level ''[[Regret (Halo 2 level)|Regret]]''</ref>


[[File:H2A-Miranda.jpg|thumb|300px|Miranda reaching for the Activation Index.]]
Keyes was taken to the Control Room of [[Installation 05]] because she had been designated as a [[Reclaimer]] by [[343 Guilty Spark]]. Tartarus then used her to activate the Installation. Shortly afterward Thel 'Vadamee and Johnson arrived, and the three of them were able to kill Tartarus. At that moment, she retrieved the Index and stopped the Halo from firing. When she asked 343 Guilty Spark about the [[Halos]], 343 Guilty Spark told her about the [[Installation 00|Ark]]. <ref>'''[[Halo 2]]''', campaign level, ''[[The Great Journey]]''</ref>
Later, Keyes and Johnson went to the [[Library]] of the installation, accompanied by most of the standard Marines of the ship. They attempted to retrieve the Index, and, although Keyes was successful, most of the Marines were killed or infected by the [[Flood]] that were infecting the installation. Once Keyes and Johnson had the Index, they were ambushed by [[Arbiter]] [[Thel 'Vadamee]]. Johnson was knocked out, but Keyes was able to take down Arbiter's shields by wielding [[M7 SMG]] before also being knocked unconscious by [[Tartarus]]' [[Fist of Rukt]]. Seconds later, Keyes and Johnson were taken from the Arbiter by Tartarus and his band of [[Jiralhanae]]. The Jiralhanae then took Keyes and Johnson to ''[[High Charity]]'', where they met the remaining [[Hierarchs|High Prophet]]s of [[Prophet of Truth|Truth]] and [[Prophet of Mercy|Mercy]]. They were then taken aboard separate [[Kez'katu-pattern Phantom|Type-52 Phantom dropships]] and were transported to Delta Halo's surface to aid in the activation of the installation.<ref>'''Halo 2''', campaign level ''[[Sacred Icon]]''</ref>
 
Keyes was taken to the [[Control Room]] of [[Installation 05]] because she had been designated as a [[Reclaimer]] by [[343 Guilty Spark]]. Tartarus then used her to begin the Installation's activation sequence. Shortly afterward Thel 'Vadamee and Johnson arrived, and the three of them were able to kill Tartarus. At that moment, she retrieved the Index and stopped the Halo from firing. However, Spark revealed that the shutdown activated a failsafe system; the rest of the Halos were set to standby mode, and could only be activated remotely from what Spark informed them was [[Installation 00|"The Ark"]]. After the Arbiter asked him its location, Spark gave them coordinates to [[Earth]].<ref>'''Halo Encyclopedia: The Definitive Guide to the Halo Universe''', ''page 197''</ref><ref>'''Halo 2''', campaign level ''[[The Great Journey]]''</ref>
 
The release of the Flood from the ring, however, would put their plans to get to Earth on hold. The new allies would rendezvous with the Arbiter's comrade, [[Rtas 'Vadumee]], now shipmaster of the recently captured [[assault carrier]] ''[[Shadow of Intent]]'', flagship of the [[Covenant separatists|separatists']] fledgling [[Fleet of Retribution]].<ref name="universe">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/vehicles/shadow-of-intent '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Shadow of Intent'']</ref> Together, they formulated a plan for sterilization and quarantine. Spark remained with the fleet to coordinate containment efforts while Keyes, Johnson and the Arbiter raced back to Earth aboard one of the fleet's vessels to warn humanity and to locate the Ark.{{Ref/Marketing|Id=LongRoad|Halo Waypoint|The Long Road Home}}<ref name="lootcrate2">'''[[Halo Legendary Crate]]''', ''[[Halo Legendary Crate/Data Drops|Data Drop #2]]''</ref>


===Return to Earth===
===Return to Earth===
{{Main|Battle of Kenya}}
While most of the [[Covenant Separatists]]' [[Fleet of Retribution]] remained to maintain the quarantine of ''[[High Charity]]'', Commander Keyes, Johnson and the Arbiter returned to Earth on one of the fleet's vessels and arrived before the Forerunner Dreadnought with John-117 onboard. On Earth, she commanded the defense of Earth from the UNSC base [[Crow's Nest (Base)|Crow's Nest]].<ref>'''[[Halo Waypoint]]''', ''"The Long Road Home"''</ref>

[[File:Crow's Nest - Reunion.png|left|thumb|250px|Commander Keyes with Thel 'Vadam, Avery Johnson and the newly retrieved John-117.]]
Upon their return to Earth around November 15, 2552, Keyes took up command at the [[military base|base]] [[Crow's Nest (location)|Crow's Nest]] outside of the town of [[Voi]], near the location of the [[Portal at Voi|supposed Ark]], undergoing excavation.<ref name="lootcrate2"/><ref name="ReferenceA">'''Halo 3''', campaign level ''[[Crow's Nest]]''</ref> Truth's [[Forerunner Dreadnought]] arrived two days later, landing directly on the artifact while John-117, who had secretly stowed away during its departure from ''High Charity'', bailed out into the [[Tanzania]]n jungle. Johnson and the Arbiter [[Recovery of John-117|recovered]] the Chief and extracted him back to Crow's Nest, where Keyes detailed her plan to have the Spartan lead an effort to neutralize one of the [[Skar'wa-pattern Mantis|AA batteries]] defending the excavation site in order to allow [[Battle Group Victory|Lord Hood's ships]] to attack the Dreadnought. However, the base suddenly came under [[Attack on Crow's Nest|heavy Covenant attack]] and as it was overrun, Keyes and the command staff evacuated the wounded Marines and escaped on the last Pelican. A [[Improvised UNSC bomb|large explosive device]] that Keyes ordered left behind was detonated by the Master Chief, destroying a large portion of the attacking Covenant and most of the base itself.<ref name="ReferenceA"/><ref name="ReferenceB">'''Halo 3''', campaign level ''[[Tsavo Highway]]''</ref> Keyes supported the [[Assault on the Tsavo Highway|offensive towards]] [[Voi]] from Pelican [[Kilo 23]], from which she dropped off supplies for the Master Chief.<ref name="ReferenceB"/>
 
[[File:H3-KeyesCommanding.jpg|250px|thumb|Keyes leading the last of humanity's forces during the end of the war.]]
While [[Battle of Voi|pushing into]] the main town of Voi in an attempt to stop the [[Prophet of Truth]] from activating the now fully uncovered "Ark", Keyes spotted [[Indulgence of Conviction|a single Covenant battlecruiser]] coming towards Earth. However, Hood decided to ignore it, stating that they would not have another shot at stopping Truth. After Truth succeeded in opening and retreating through [[the Portal]] outside Voi, the battlecruiser that Keyes had spotted was revealed to be infected by the [[Flood]]. It crash-landed near the Portal and the Flood began to spread throughout Voi.<ref>'''Halo 3''', ''[[The Storm]]''</ref> Keyes came up with a plan to overload the battlecruiser's engine core to destroy the city and the Flood. Keyes was contacted by the Sangheili of the newly arrived [[Fleet of Retribution]] and informed that [[Cortana]] was seemingly aboard the cruiser. The Master Chief found the small data unit seemingly holding Cortana, but it was simply a damaged [[hologram|holographic]] message. As the Sangheili began to partially glass Voi to destroy the Flood, John-117, Keyes, Johnson, Hood, the Arbiter, [[Rtas 'Vadum]], and [[343 Guilty Spark]] met aboard the ''[[Shadow of Intent]]'' to discuss the current situation. After Guilty Spark repaired the [[Covenant storage device|Covenant storage unit]], Cortana's damaged message implied that the solution to the Flood was through the Portal. At Keyes' insistence, Hood allowed her to go through the Portal, donating his personal flagship, the {{UNSCShip|Forward Unto Dawn}}, to aid the Fleet of Retribution in the expedition.<ref>'''Halo 3''', campaign level ''[[Floodgate]]''</ref>
 
===Battle of Installation 00===
{{Main|Operation: BLIND FAITH}}
{{quote|We have priorities, too. Until we kill Truth, stop the Rings from firing... nothing else matters.|Miranda underlining the importance of their mission.}}
Keyes and the rest of the expedition force arrived at the real Ark--[[Installation 00]]—on [[2552#December|December 11]].{{Ref/Reuse|Fortitude}} Although the ''Dawn'' was unable to best [[Truth's fleet]] in direct combat, Miranda was able to fend them off long enough to reach the Ark. During the [[Battle of Installation 00]], she landed troops and large quantities of weaponry and armor on the Ark, largely to supplement John-117's search for the [[Cartographer]] facility. Throughout the battle, she worked with Guilty Spark and 'Vadum to fight off the Covenant forces. Although Guilty Spark wished to find terminals near the core of the installation to aid in the repair of Cortana's storage unit to find the solution to the Flood, Keyes and 'Vadam agreed to focus on eliminating the Prophet of Truth to prevent the firing of the [[Halo Array]].<ref>'''Halo 3''', campaign level ''[[The Ark (level)|The Ark]]''</ref>


When John-117 located Truth at the Ark's [[Installation 00 Citadel|control room]], she dispatched several Pelican dropships to deactivate the shield protecting the Citadel. During the process, Keyes lost contact with Johnson and his Marines due to their capture by Jiralhanae forces. Though the UNSC and the separatist forces were able to deactivate the shield, the battle was interrupted by the sudden appearance of the Flood-infested ''[[High Charity]]''. The ''Shadow of Intent'' suffered heavy damage upon the Flood's arrival, and was unable to open fire on the Citadel. Guilty Spark tried to convince the group to contain the Flood outbreak before it could spread, but Keyes insisted that stopping Truth was more important. Having no effective way to destroy the Citadel from above, Miranda ordered John-117 and the Arbiter to storm the tower and stop Truth.<ref name="covenant">'''Halo 3''', campaign level ''[[The Covenant (level)|The Covenant]]''</ref>
Shortly after Master Chief was recovered from the [[Africa]]n jungles, the base came under heavy Covenant attack. As the base was overrun with Loyalist forces, Keyes and the command staff evacuated the wounded Marines and escaped on the last Pelican. The large explosive device that Keyes ordered left behind was detonated by the Master Chief, destroying a large portion of the attacking Covenant. Miranda then took an active role as the commanding officer of the {{UNSCShip|Forward Unto Dawn}}, Lord Hood's personal flagship. After the [[Prophet of Truth]] succeeded in opening the [[Portal]] outside [[Voi]], Keyes was permitted by a reluctant [[Fleet Admiral]] [[Hood]] to follow the [[Covenant Loyalist]] forces through the portal.

===Battle of Installation 00 and death===
[[File:Keyes last stand.jpg|250px|thumb|left|Miranda Keyes moments before her death at the hands of the Prophet of Truth.]]
{{Main|Battle of Installation 00}}
Realizing that John and Thel 'Vadam would never get there in time to stop Truth, Keyes decided to stall Truth herself. She crashed her Pelican into Truth's position, intending to stop the Array's firing and rescue Sergeant Johnson, who had been captured by Truth's forces. She exited her Pelican with an [[M90 shotgun|M90A shotgun]] and an [[M6G magnum]]. She was able to kill two Jiralhanae, and wounded (some fatally) several others but ultimately found herself outnumbered. Johnson demanded that she kill them both in order to halt Truth's plans. Keyes, unwilling to harm Johnson, hesitated. As she paused, the Prophet of Truth shot her in the back with a [[Paegaas Workshop Spiker]], killing her.{{Ref/Reuse|covenant}}

Miranda Keyes, commanding ''Forward Unto Dawn'', then traveled with [[Ship Master]] [[Rtas 'Vadum]] and a [[Covenant separatists|Covenant separatist]] fleet to [[Installation 00]]; they arrived on [[2552#December|December 11]]<ref name="Fortitude"/> During the [[Battle of Installation 00]], she landed troops and large quantities of weaponry and armor on the Ark, largely to supplement John-117's search for the [[cartographer]] facility. When John-117 located Truth at The Ark's [[Citadel (Forerunner)|control room]], she dispatched several Pelican Dropships to deactivate the shield protecting the control room. When Sergeant Johnson was captured by Truth's forces in the course of this battle, Keyes asked the Chief how close he was to stopping Truth.


[[File:H3 Miranda Keyes Death.png|250px|thumb|Miranda Keyes surprised after being shot in her spine as her life quickly fades.]]
Realizing that he and Thel 'Vadam would never get there in time to stop Truth, Keyes decided to stall Truth herself. She crashed her Pelican at Truth's position, intending to rescue Johnson. She exited her Pelican with an [[M90 Close Assault Weapon System|M90A Shotgun]] and an [[M6G Pistol]]. She was able to kill two Brutes, and wounded (some fatally) several others but ultimately found herself outnumbered. Johnson demanded that she kill them both in order to halt Truth's plans. Keyes, unwilling to harm Johnson, hesitated. As she paused, the Prophet of Truth shot her in the back seven times with a [[Spiker]], killing her. Her death greatly disheartened and demoralized Johnson, who was subsequently used to activate the Ark. Truth commented on Keyes' unwillingness to kill Johnson, claiming that humans were weak which was why the Forerunners had left them behind.  
Her death greatly disheartened and demoralized Johnson and he didn't resist when Truth used him to activate the Ark. Truth viewed Miranda's unwillingness to kill Johnson as proof that humans were weak and unable to set aside their compassion, which was why the Forerunners had left them behind. After the Master Chief and the Arbiter stopped Truth, Keyes' body was subsequently rescued from Flood infection by Johnson, who carried her into the Pelican which he used to escape the Ark's control room.{{Ref/Reuse|covenant}} It is likely that her body was taken back to Earth, and buried there.


Her face is later seen in a photograph on the [[Voi Memorial|Memorial]] to the fallen on a hillside overlooking the Portal to the Ark, near the photograph of Avery Johnson and the service number of Master Chief John-117. Due to her actions during the final months of the [[Human-Covenant War]], she was posthumously awarded the [[UNSC Legion of Honor]].<ref>'''Halo 3''', ''[[Halo (Halo 3 Level)|Epilogue]]''</ref> Catherine Halsey, despite having been estranged from her daughter, mourned Miranda's death and often cried in her sleep, whispering Miranda's name to herself.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Thursday War]]''', ''page 267''</ref>

Like her father, Miranda Keyes was known for being one of the bravest officers in the UNSC. This was demonstrated by her decision to follow Regret's [[flagship]], ''[[Solemn Penance]]'', into slipspace during the Battle of Mombasa, when she crashed the {{UNSCShip|Hilbert}} into the Covenant destroyer over [[Gamma Pavonis VII]], and leading the [[Battle of Installation 00|final battle of the war]], when she crashed her Pelican through the Citadel's window in a last-ditch effort to rescue Avery Johnson moments before her death.


Due to her unexpected move to follow Regret's ship into slipspace, she was described by [[Commander (UNSC)|Commander]] [[Richard Lash]] as "the ballsiest officer in the Fleet". He further suggested that she may have been trying to live up to the reputation of her father or that she was simply "nuts".{{Ref/Reuse|follow}}
==Personality==
Like her father, Miranda Keyes was known for being one of the bravest officers in the UNSC. This was demonstrated in various cases, such as her decision to follow Regret's flagship into Slipspace during the Battle of Mombasa, or when she crashed the ''Hilbert'' into the Covenant destroyer over Gamma Pavonis-VII, or in the Battle of Installation 00 when she crashed her Pelican through the Citadel's wall in a last-ditch effort to rescue Johnson, moments before her death.


Although she and her [[Jacob Keyes|father]] were not particularly close, Miranda identified with him more than she did with her [[Catherine Halsey|mother]]. This is suggested by her decision to take up her father's surname after being raised by her mother. As a child, Miranda was often curious and excited about her father's assignments.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 23''</ref> While her father was serving in the [[Outer Colonies]], Miranda would often learn about naval tactics by herself for her own enjoyment. Even at a young age, she did not require much affection from Jacob, though she did enjoy walking down [[Armstrong Alley]] with him to admire the scenery.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 357''</ref>

In-game, Keyes appears as a [[non-playable character]] and is invulnerable to damage. When [[melee]]d, she will not bleed, instead only bleeding when shot at or when caught in a [[Anskum-pattern plasma grenade|grenade]] explosion. If either of the aforementioned is done for a period of time in the ''[[Halo 2]]'' level Cairo Station she will moan. If shot at for some time or meleed in ''[[Halo 3]]'' she will scream hysterically.

{{Linkbox|quote=yes|gallery=yes}}
*She has the number [[seven|7]] engraved on her cheek.
*Miranda Keyes was voiced by [[Julie Benz]] in ''Halo 2''. In ''Halo 3'', she was portrayed by [[Justis Bolding]] instead, allegedly because [[Bungie]] wanted Keyes to have a distinct accent.<ref>[http://www.tvguide.com/News-Views/Interviews-Features/Article/default.aspx?posting=%7B586AE81D-35CC-4DE1-AAD8-920B33FDDDFC%7D Dexter's No. 1 Gal — Julie Benz — Previews a Killer Finale] Friday, December 15, 2006 <br />'''''TVGuide.com:''' Are you all done with your voice work for the ''Halo 3'' video game?''
*In ''Halo 3'', she is portrayed by [[Justis Bolding]], instead of [[Julie Benz]], because [[Bungie]] wanted a person with an accent.<ref>[http://www.tvguide.com/News-Views/Interviews-Features/Article/default.aspx?posting=%7B586AE81D-35CC-4DE1-AAD8-920B33FDDDFC%7D Dexter's No. 1 Gal — Julie Benz — Previews a Killer Finale] Friday, December 15, 2006 <br />'''''TVGuide.com:''' Are you all done with your voice work for the ''Halo 3'' video game?''<br />
'''''Julie Benz:''' You know what? I am actually not a part of ''Halo 3''. I was informed a couple of weeks ago that they are actually changing the voice of Commander Miranda Keyes, and giving her an accent.''</ref> However, Keyes' voice in ''Halo 3'' has no discernible accent. In ''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]'', Keyes' facial appearance is modeled after actress {{Plain|[http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2298278/ Courtney Munch]}}, who also provides the motion capture for her remastered animations.<ref>'''[[Remaking the Legend]]'''</ref>
'''''Julie Benz:''' You know what? I am actually not a part of ''Halo 3''. I was informed a couple of weeks ago that they are actually changing the voice of Commander Miranda Keyes, and giving her an accent.''</ref> Despite this, Keyes' voice still has no discernible accent in ''Halo 3''.
*Keyes would have had a larger role and a full introduction in the deleted ''Halo 2'' level [[Covenant Ship]], in which Keyes and a group of [[ODST]]s would have been aboard a Covenant [[CAS-class assault carrier|assault carrier]] alongside [[John-117]]. Additionally, one of [[Jason Jones]]' original central ideas for ''Halo 2'' was that Miranda would betray the UNSC by forming a deal with the [[San'Shyuum]] of the Covenant, as she believed that the UNSC was responsible for [[Jacob Keyes|her father]]'s death. In order to get revenge against John, whom she believed [[Keyes|directly killed]] her father aboard ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]'', Keyes would have strapped a bomb to the Master Chief's armor.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBi_xx26ClM '''YouTube''': ''Halo 2: Developer Commentary Playthrough (2007)'']</ref> Although Jones was highly insistent about including this particular plot point, [[Joseph Staten]] was not fond of the idea and "just couldn't figure out how to make [it] work".<ref>[https://waypoint.vice.com/en_us/article/the-complete-untold-history-of-halo-an-oral-history '''Vice.com''': ''The Complete, Untold History of Halo'']</ref>
*Miranda's preferred sidearm is a Pistol, which is clipped to her side by magnetic plates woven into her standard-issue UNSC Navy fatigues.
*Notably, Keyes was born seventeen days after the Human-Covenant War began and died during its last major battle.
*In ''Halo 2'', Miranda has a silver oak leaf (meaning [[Commander (UNSC)|Commander]]), but in ''Halo 3'' she has a gold oak leaf (meaning [[Lieutenant Commander]]). Even more contradicting are the three full golden bars on her uniform's shoulderboards and sleeve-ends which indicate she's a Commander rather than the two full bars and one thinner bar of a LCDR. ''Halo: Reach'' bonus material takes note that she was promoted to Lieutenant Commander not long before the Battle of Earth.
*In both ''Halo 2'' and ''Halo 3'', she has the number [[seven]] engraved on her cheek.
*She is one of few non-Spartans that [[Dual Wielding|dual wields]] [[M7/Caseless Submachine Gun|M7 SMGs]]. Strangely, she has no problem with the recoil of the SMGs while shooting.
*In ''Halo 2'', Keyes' uniform collar bears the silver oak leaf of a commander and she is addressed as "Commander" in a formal setting. In ''Halo 3'', her uniform's collar has the golden oak leaf of a lieutenant commander, though its shoulder boards and sleeve ends bear the three full bars of a commander rather than the two full bars and one thinner bar of a lieutenant commander. ''[[Halo: The Essential Visual Guide]]'' confirms that she held the rank of commander at the time of her death.{{Ref/Reuse|evg}}
*One of the many flaws in the [[Halo Encyclopedia]] is the claim that she was shot and killed by a Brute [[Honor Guard Brute|honor guardsman]], though it is clear in the game that it was the Prophet of Truth who shot her.
*The ''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition)]]'' mistakenly claims that Keyes was killed by a Brute Honor Guardsman, though she was actually killed by the Prophet of Truth.<ref>'''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition)]]''', ''page 73''</ref>
