The '''spoofer''' (referred to as the "lockpick" in the game files) is used by the [[UNSC]] forces to force open doors and override certain pieces of equipment by sending in an electrical current that stabilizes the door that may be locked, damaged, or otherwise unable to function.

==Description==
They are standard equipment to [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marine]] [[fireteam]]s when deployed into ground engagements. They appear to be very advanced, as they are capable of even overriding the [[Forerunner]] locks on doors in Installation 04.

In [[2552]], [[Private]] [[Kappus]] used one to open the door to the [[Flood containment facility]] on Installation 04. He was ordered by [[Captain (Navy)|Captain]] [[Jacob Keyes]] to open the door that happened to be the only thing holding back the [[Flood]]. Unwillingly and unknowingly, Kappus unleashed the Flood on [[Installation 04]], dooming him and the rest of his squad,<ref>'''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''', campaign level, ''[[343 Guilty Spark (level)|343 Guilty Spark]]''</ref><ref>'''[[Halo: The Flood]]'''</ref> with only some few survivors, including [[Avery Junior Johnson|Sgt. Johnson]].

==Trivia==
*In the action horror film ''[[Wikipedia:Aliens (film)|Aliens]]'' and the video game ''[[Wikipedia:Aliens versus Predator 2|Aliens vs. Predator 2]]'', one of the marines uses a device similar or identical to the spoofer. In fact, considering how most of the game is based of the aspects of the movie, it could have been inspired by the device in the movie.
