Editing Talk:SPARTAN-B312

----

{{Archived}}
==Background==
This needs to be fixed, gender was just speculation:

SPARTAN-B312 is the main playable character in the upcoming game, ''[[Halo: Reach]]''. To integrate player relation with B312, players can pick what gender they wish Noble Six to be with separately recorded voices for each gender.
Of course, this is purely speculation based upon [http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=BWU_030510 Bungie Weekly Update 3.05.10]

<br />''"This next week, Lee Wilson joins us as we record all the mission and combat dialog for the main story Spartan ''characters and our male/female Noble Six voices."<br />
—Urk


It should also be noted that there is no intimation as to when or how often a player may change his/her gender.



In that new interview with Aisha Tyler, she says she did alot of deathscreams.. possibly another intimation of gender change? I feel this is good proof for multiplayer, but it doesn't nessecarily mean anything for campaggin.



He's a male. Per canon. Just like with other games like ''Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic I/II'', while the player may be able to choose his/her gender, there IS an official "canon gender" that is used. Per S-312 (Noble 6)'s Personnel Profile, he is a male.

Actually in KOTOR 2 you are canonically female--[[Image:Legendary.jpg|20px]][[User:Ender the Xenocide|<font color="Orange">Ender the Xenocide]]</font>[[Image:Legendary.jpg|20px]] 20:11, 3 November 2010 (EDT)



That Settles it Noble 6 is a Male, Because its Stated here http://www.bungie.net/news/content.aspx?cid=24530 and The version Bungie uses for Advertisements is Male.

Think of it as the Mass Effect Senario, You can chose the Gender of your Shepard, but the Canon version is the Male, because thats the one Made by the Studio, and is the one in all of the Advertisements

== spartan tags ==

i think we should remove the company tags from the spartans of noble because, even tho they are spartan IIIs, they do not belong to a company, 312 and kat were taken out of beta company, therefore they do not warrant company tags. as with carter, emile and jun they were from alpha company, which no longer exists, they are now noble team. besides, since the fact that they are spartans IIIs is no longer a debated fact and has been confirmed by multiple sources, bungie would come righ out with it and put spartan tags on their pages, right. so i vote we remove the company tags cuz there have been no sources that give company tags. befere i make the change, you can vote, i will decide to make the edit at the end of march if the majority of the people support it [[User talk:Ghost mactavish|Ghost mactavish]] 05:28, March 7, 2010 (UTC)
:I find myself agreeing with this. So far, there's been no official source that refers to the Noble team Spartans with company tags. Whatever the reasons for this are, for me at least it seems pretty clear they don't have them. Not anymore at least. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] ([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]]) 13:03, March 7, 2010 (UTC)

:::So they did. But I don't think they're relevant in the discussion of the members of NOBLE still having their tags. For the first thing, Noble Team is a team of elite operatives, almost entirely separate from the rest of the Spartans. Second, I've said it before and I'll say it again: If the Spartans of Noble Team still had their company tags, why doesn't any, and I mean any, official source make a single mention of them? Not even the official B.net "personnel reports" that seem to contain every other bit of information about them. I've never questioned that whether they originally belonged to those companies, nor if they originally had their company tags. I'm only drawing conclusions from everything we've seen so far. I just like sticking to official material, that's all. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] ([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]]) 13:24, March 7, 2010 (UTC)

== Navy vs Army? ==

The page says that Noble Six is affiliated with the UNSC Navy, however, S-IIIs are Army, and I thought that Noble Team was also confirmed Army by the NOBLE Team Performance Report?

:Possible oversight by the devs maybe?[[User talk:Someguy789|Someguy789]] 00:15, March 8, 2010 (UTC)

::The Spartans of Noble team (along with all Spartans) are orginally affiliated with the Navy. In the case of Noble Team, they work closer with the army, but are still Naval personel. Just look at their ranks, if you are unsure. Nowhere but the Navy does there exist a Commander Rank.

:::The S-IIIs have numerous contradictions. Gamma Company's SPARTANs were all Privates, for instance.-- '''[[User:Forerunner|<font color="blue">Fore</font>]]''[[User talk:Forerunner|<font color="green">run</font>]]''[[Special:Contributions/Forerunner|<font color="red">ner</font>]]''' 21:41, March 8, 2010 (UTC)

::::It's originally an ONI-funded and controlled project, so the actual Spartans have a connection to the Navy. Many officers in charge were from other branches though. Possibly after the initial generations, more and more control was given to the Army that originally kickstarted the project. Perhaps Beta Company was the first to use Army ranks thanks to a withdrawl of ONI's presence in the program. Nobel Team may be an anomaly for now.--[[User talk:Nerfherder1428|Nerfherder1428]] 11:56, March 10, 2010 (UTC)

That's because he is from beta company of the spartan III's. The "s" stands for spartan. [[User talk:FatalSnipe117|FatalSnipe117]] 01:28, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

Three members, B312 included, from Noble Team all have the same birthdays? Highly unlikely.

==LOL==
Has anyone else noticed that in the article it talk about Noble 6's previous superior saying that her gender is unknown then pulls out some quote calling it a he. I thought this was funny cause the sentenses are literally next to each other.

{{Quote|Additionally, S-B312 seems to have been assigned to Noble Team despite the wishes of his/her former superior who is said to have used S-B312 as "his own private grim reaper".|The quote in question?}}
If that is the case, you misread. B312 is either a male or female depending on player choice, but his/her former superior was a male, probably Ackerson. [[User talk:Spartan 112|112]] 01:35, April 16, 2010 (UTC)

: That would actually be really awesome if Ackerson had an in-game role. And it makes damn good sense that that would be the way Ackerson would use use Noble-Six. [[User talk:Flayer92|Flayer92]] 22:29, May 8, 2010 (UTC)

New Waypoint intel is out on Noble Team, with individual bios on each member. I believe they are all identical to the Game Informer bios, with the exception of Noble Six, who's birthdate is redacted like the rest of his information. I think it's safe to say that Game Informer just slipped and gave N6 kat's birthday too. I've gone ahead and changed the article.

::The sir above who didn't press the signature button, I salute you for awesome timing! But, still, Reach was annihilated, the Pillar of Autumn is the only human vessel that managed to escape we know so far, but since Bungie retconned, I dunno. It would be a different ending to a Halo game, seeing a planet glassed while actually on it. Though it will leave a sour note, Halo: Reach being the last Halo made by Bungie, or so they say. Now that I think about it, didn't they confirm it indirectly in a ViDoc or something? It went along the lines of "Even though it's a lost fight, we (Bungie) want to make you feel like you're fighting the good fight." It didn't go exactly as written, but it was similar. Can't wait for 9/14! [[Special:Contributions/80.222.44.24|80.222.44.24]] 16:55, June 22, 2010 (UTC)

:::The Autumn WASN'T the only ship to escape. I believe there was an ONI person who escaped, like 7 SPARTANs escaped on a ship, etc. So it is possible they escaped, but they most likely died when the planet was being glassed.Thank you taking time to listen to my post! 19:17, June 22, 2010 (UTC)!!

::::Thanks for the additional info. I apologize for the lack of info, perhaps my older post was a bit "know-it-all." But still, two ships and their crew, some soldiers, an ONI spook and a handful of spartans still fall into the category of annihilated, considering Reach was one of the UNSC's main producers of military hardware and ships. Hafta buy the new Halo books, once they become available to me. About the question at hand, yes, that is a good point and once you think about it, it seems unlikely that the entire Noble team will go M.I.A, but we'll just have to wait and see what Bungie's come up!

:::::Correcting the poster above you, nine in ten ships were destroyed during the battle. One tenth of the Reach fleet managed to escape to Earth. That means at least fifteen warships - I don't know how many passenger liners, freighters, private vessels etc. would have escaped, but its a pitiful amount of military vessels. The Spartans who escaped Reach that he was talking about were rescued by a time travelling Master Chief in a Covenant ship, and are now either dead or on Onyx - the rest of the "regular" Spartans died on Reach. That probably doesn't count Noble Team, since they weren't on any official Spartan rosters or tallies. -- [[User:Specops306|<b><font color=indigo>Specops306</font></b>]] [[w:c:halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>Qur'a 'Morhek</sup></font></i></u>]] 10:43, June 26, 2010 (UTC)

== Canon armour ==

Due to the customisation of B312's armour, all images if this SPARTAN will be different. In the Beta, Mark V[B] came as the only armour available at the beginning - leaving the others to be unlocked later. This system will likely be the same in the release version. If so, we may have to keep images consistant with this, and take images of (for example) B312 in Recon as non-canon and to be removed from the biographical section and infobox (though allowed in the gallery). -- [[User talk:Forerunner|Forerunner]] 18:08, August 16, 2010 (UTC)

:I'd say we should allow pics of B312 in default armor only, even in the gallery. That is, no images of B312 in custom armor allowed at all. Mainly for the sake of consistency, but also because Bungie has used the default armor in most of their official screenshots and thus, it's the most "canon" one we can have. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 18:23, August 16, 2010 (UTC)

::I agree, though we should allow both male and female variations on the page, as long as they retain the default armor.

So, just to make sure it's clear for everyone who's going to ask about this later, that means that, for the sake of this article, Noble 6 is all default armour in black, but can be male or female. That sound right? [[User talk:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 15:20, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

:Yeah. Gender doesn't appear to have a default setting. The colour is definitely black, yes. Pink-Flaming Recon with a flower design on the shoulder pad would just look terrible as an infobox image.

:::::In the Reach Beta, some players would suddenly have their armor change (either after they die or when they respawned) and they would have armor characteristics that couldn't be unlocked in the Beta. On one of them that I saw, on a legitimate video of the Beta, there was a Spartan who had a prosthetic arm (among other things) on the wrong arm. There wouldn't be a design for the prosthetic limb on the other arm if it wasn't a permutation. Another notable example i can find is [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xv8dPewClTE here].

I know we just got through agreeing on an armor standard, but should we again consider the HUL helmet attachment that Noble 6 has been consistantly been shown to use? We have almost as many sources ''with'' the attachments than we do without, so this is difficult decision. It's in the VGA trailer (our first look at Nobel 6), and at least part of "The Battle Begins" TV spot. The trivia section on this page (erroneously) says that official material since the VGA has been devoid of this attachment. However, that is simply NOT the case. 

Recent evidence shows that the official action figure has an equipped HUL and 312 is shown with it in the very recent live-action "Deliver Hope" cinematic as well. These alone are huge hints that we should at least reconsider our previous agreement. The fact that Bungie is still using the attachment in advertising media is enough in itself to warrant a discussion. --[[User talk:Nerfherder1428|Nerfherder1428]] 15:28, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

:That's not B312; that's the previous Noble 6 - Thom. Take note Kat's lack of her distinguished prosphetic arm, and the SPARTAN's orange paint on the back of his torso. This looks like the telling if how Thom died.

We've been basing our assumption that 312 is a Beta Company Spartan off of Jorge's comment in the trailer introducing Noble Team, but that line apparently doesn't exist in the final game, and without it we seem to have little other evidence pointing to 312 as a Beta Company Spartan - he certainly seems much younger than Kat. His official dossier doesn't state class, or even age. He may be a Gamma Company Spartan. mY point is that we don't know, and until we do, we should move the article to simply SPARTAN-312 and alter references to the character. -- [[User:Specops306|<b><font color=indigo>Specops306</font></b>]] [[w:c:halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>Qur'a 'Morhek</sup></font></i></u>]] 11:22, August 23, 2010 (UTC)

== FJ/PARA ==
This is not really a "I think canon is" issue, but has anyone else noticed that in all the non in-game media about 312, even current stuff, he is wearing FJ/PARA knees? The action-figurey one by McFarlane, the xbox avatar Noble 6 suit, and a whole bunch of pictures and wallpapers of him - including at least one by Bungie - , they're always FJ/PARA. That and every other member of Noble wears them too, except Jorge, cause he's huge and a S-II, and Kat, cause she's female. That's not meant to be sexist or anything, but the default ones do make her more female. It seems like standard (male at least) S-III knees are meant to FJ/PARA. And before anyone says anything, yes, I know S-312 is whatever you want him to be, no matter how nonsensical it may be, that's what canon is, just thought this was interesting. [[User talk:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 04:14, 25 October 2010 (EDT)
:I noticed this too. I was wondering if the FJ/PARA knees and default Mk V knees are actually switched. It would make sense. As you said, all members of Noble except Jorge and Kat are seen with FJ/PARA knees. Kat uses the Air Assault helmet and FJ/PARA shoulders, but default knees. Wouldn't it make more sense if her knees where actually the FJ/PARA? The so called "default" knees are smaller and don't look like they fit Mk V's theme. Also, the FJ/PARA's description states that it is designed to be smaller. Yet, they're bigger than the default knees? The FJ/PARA shoulders are smaller than the Mk V shoulders, why not the knees? Basically, I'm suggesting that Bungie switched the names around. The "default" should be called "FJ/PARA", and vice versa.--[[Image:PENGUIN4.gif|15px]]''[[User:FluffyEmoPenguin|<span style="color:black; font-family:Verdana">Fluffy</span><span style="color:gray; font-family:Verdana">Emo</span><span style="color:black; font-family:Verdana">Penguin</span>]]<sup><small>([[User talk:FluffyEmoPenguin|<span style="color:gray">ice quack!</span>]])''</small></sup> 14:40, 28 December 2010 (EST)

And same for the rest of Noble Team, (including the original Six) not default knees as standard? Also, FJ/Para knees look a lot like the Mark IV and VI knees, so it'd make sense for that too, they fit the standard MJOLNIR style, the others don't.

:I'm sure that's because Six was always depicted as male in pre-release gameplay footage, trailers, ''et cetera''. I suppose [[:File:Noble Surveillance.jpg|this image]] may lead some to believe that 312 was canonically male, - and wore the default gray armor - as it is ostensibly a still shot of surveillance footage from Sword Base on July 26, 2552. However, neither the journal nor the picture claim that the picture was taken inside Sword Base or even at the Visegrad relay two days prior. In the journal, Halsey mentions that she has scrounged as much data about Noble Team as she could, and presumably came across this image. It could just as easily be from one of Noble Team's operations prior to April 22, 2552; thus, the Six featured in the picture would be Thom-293, as he wore a gray set of the default in-game armor. --[[User talk:Braidenvl|&quot;Government big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have.&quot; -Thomas Jefferson]] 10:36, 26 February 2011 (EST)

== Canon Armour (Again) ==
In the Chess game type the pieces are Noble team, with the Pawns being 6 (haha ;) ) S312s. This version of Six has FJ/Para knees, same as just about EVERY other offical Six, and a silver visor. Six also has a silver visor on the back of the game's case, and quite a few other places too. Not sure what we should do with this, but in-game Six (and back-cover Six) seems like the closest thing to "official" we'll get. Oh, and I guess because they couldn't put Jorge in chess, the Bishops are fully white, fully default female Spartans with Air Assault helmets. I'm not sure who they're supposed to be, any ideas? As another note of intrest, as one of the glitches in Chess, as soon as you take control of a character, they become all white and have a silver visor. I've always thought FJ/Para were supposed to be default, but maybe silver visor was too? It seems that way, so if Six has FJ/Para knees and a silver visor, it would make him the original default, which would make sense. I dunno, someone will make this sound stupid pretty fast I bet...

+This needs to be fixed, gender was just speculation:
-I was just wondering if someone could clarify something for me. It says that most likely S-B312's superior was Ackerson because Ackerson had requested Tom-B292 to head his special warfare team but that request was denied and Tom went with Lucy to train Gamma. So according to speculation Ackerson may have received S-312 instead. However, isn't this highly unlikely due to the fact that Ackerson thought the only Beta company survivors were Lucy and Tom because he had been kept in the dark about Spartan-IIIs being pulled from Alpha and Beta and given MJOLNIR? So he couldn't have been given S-312 because he didn't even know S-312 existed right? Or did he just think he had been previously assigned to a non-combat role like it said in the Mendez-Ambrose transmission? Oh and by the way one other question when it talks about "cat 2s" in the transcript does that mean Spartan-IIIs with Spartan-II genetic standards? --[[User talk:Ace of Spades|Ace of Spades]]

The current quote would fit nicely in the "Death" section whereas the previous section fits nicely with his overall personality (or what's left of it to the player's imagination). The introduction should be the most condensed paragraph about the subject and its job should be to introduce the subject to readers.

Conversely, in ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', there are clearly two Spartans visible in cooperative play, and yet you wouldn't say that there were two Spartans present on Alpha Halo. But in ''Halo: Reach'', the fact that Noble Six's role to the plot is actually the pivotal point of the campaign, then you can't say that he/she is non-canon. Because if you're going to confuse gameplay mechanics and non-canon, then you could very well say that no one actually delivered Cortana to Captain Keyes at the end of ''Halo: Reach'', therefore the events of all games that came after (chronologically) did not happen.

-DC, you need to provide a source for your claim that "Bungie said there is no canon form of Noble Six." Until you can provide that, the Essential Visual Guide is our best source, and to be taken as correct. I have to ask though, what is your the alternative to having Six have an identity, either male or female, '''in-universe'''? That Spartan-B312 is intersex, and has both genders or no gender? That Noble-Six is a gender-neutral robot? Yes, in-game Six can be either gender, but campaign gameplay can be non-canon. You can take vacations and skip areas that canonically, the Master Chief had to fight through. Hell, the Master Chief can die... repeatedly.

-:::DC Ambrose, I answered your query to me in your message board, but for the benefit of folks here, I'll reiterate some of what I said. The Bungie link above is one of the oldest pieces of information on Noble Team. It has been expanded upon since even the game shipped (and mostly by 343i now). When reviewing the Visual Guide, 343i's stance was that Six was fictionally male. The height and weight in the Guide was deliberate, as was the masculine pronoun use in his entry. I'm not sure his gender is "classified in-universe" though. Since he's considered male in the fiction, any interaction he'd had with troopers, civilians, and Noble Team would not throw his gender into doubt because of his build, voice, etc. What I think would be fine to mention in an article (perhaps one on Halo: Reach, the game, is to mention that a gameplay choice was for players to be able to choose the gender for Six when they played the game.

-:Speaking for the [[Halopedia]] staff here. We appreciate that you have reached out, and we ultimately agree that it ''appears'' 343 Industries' current stance is likely that Noble Six's gender is not canonically set. However, this has not been officially stated and we cannot ignore official canon in which Noble Six is directly stated to be male. We do not believe that sources in which Noble Six's gender is omitted supersede the authority of the sources in which Noble Six's gender is explicitly identified. Simply put, we do not believe that an omission is the same as a retcon. For reference, our canon policy can be found [https://www.halopedia.org/Halopedia:Canon_policy here].

-:Alex Wakeford's tweet, which you mention, does convince us that 343 Industries has likely revised their stance on Noble Six's gender in recent years, but we don't find it to be quite authoritative enough to override much more definitive lore. Still, an alternative but equally valid way to view Alex's tweet is that they won't say Noble Six's gender going forward, but they also won't necessarily retcon what was said previously.
+I know we just got through agreeing on an armor standard, but should we again consider the HUL helmet attachment that Noble 6 has been consistantly been shown to use? We have almost as many sources ''with'' the attachments than we do without, so this is difficult decision. It's in the VGA trailer (our first look at Nobel 6), and at least part of "The Battle Begins" TV spot. The trivia section on this page (erroneously) says that official material since the VGA has been devoid of this attachment. However, that is simply NOT the case.
-:If 343 Industries makes a more authoritative statement on the matter, we'd be excited to change our documentation of Noble Six to reflect this. To this end, we will be reaching out to some of our contacts to see if we can get a definitive public statement. A member of our community has also already prepared an updated draft of Noble Six's article in the event that 343 Industries does make a statement. - [[User:TheArb1ter117|<span style="color:purple;">TheArb1ter117</span>]] <span style="font-size:90%">([[User:TheArb1ter117|talk]])</span> 22:44, February 16, 2023 (EST)
+Recent evidence shows that the official action figure has an equipped HUL and 312 is shown with it in the very recent live-action "Deliver Hope" cinematic as well. These alone are huge hints that we should at least reconsider our previous agreement. The fact that Bungie is still using the attachment in advertising media is enough in itself to warrant a discussion. --[[User talk:Nerfherder1428|Nerfherder1428]] 15:28, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

That and every other member of Noble wears them too, except Jorge, cause he's huge and a S-II, and Kat, cause she's female. That's not meant to be sexist or anything, but the default ones do make her more female. It seems like standard (male at least) S-III knees are meant to FJ/PARA.

+==Arbiter at death?==
+One of the elites, right before the final blow, activates his energy sword, and the energy sword is in his '''LEFT''' hand. Wasn't the Arbiter (during that time) the only right- handed elite? -[[User:Spedster777|Spedster777]], Administrator of the Saints Row wiki. 17:29, 27 December 2010 (EST)
+:Your sword hand is the same as your writing hand... so what you just said was so obvious that it makes you look like an idiot. Hopefully, you means that "right" to be a "left". Even then, it was probably a coincidence, and I doubt only one person out of an entire species could be left-handed. Remember - "Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence".-- [[User talk:Forerunner|Forerunner]] 17:36, 27 December 2010 (EST)
+::Also, the cruiser that Six destroyed was part of the Arbiter's armada, and it chased the POA as soon as it left, so the Thel wouldn't have even been at Reach anymore.

+:On the contrary, I think it's a very smart move. Removal of all images of a female Six would be biased toward the male "canon". I'd much rather alternate male/female images, to emphasise the point that Six has no canon gender. -- [[User:Specops306|<b><font color=indigo>Specops306</font></b>]] [[w:c:halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>Qur'a 'Morhek</sup></font></i></u>]] 22:12, 13 January 2011 (EST)

+This has probably been brought up before, but I have it in my head that Six's canonical gender is male. Am I right, or does he/she simply have no gender at all?--[[User talk:The All-knowing Sith&#39;ari|The All-knowing Sith&#39;ari]] 09:48, 26 February 2011 (EST)
+:I'm sure that's because Six was always depicted as male in pre-release gameplay footage, trailers, ''et cetera''. I suppose [[:File:Noble Surveillance.jpg|this image]] may lead some to believe that 312 was canonically male, - and wore the default gray armor - as it is ostensibly a still shot of surveillance footage from Sword Base on July 26, 2552. However, neither the journal nor the picture claim that the picture was taken inside Sword Base or even at the Visegrad relay two days prior. In the journal, Halsey mentions that she has scrounged as much data about Noble Team as she could, and presumably came across this image. It could just as easily be from one of Noble Team's operations prior to April 22, 2552; thus, the Six featured in the picture would be Thom-293, as he wore a gray set of the default in-game armor. --[[User talk:Braidenvl|&quot;Government big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have.&quot; -Thomas Jefferson]] 10:36, 26 February 2011 (EST)
+::Thom wore default with FJ/Para knees and the up-armor helmet attachment, but it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to say it could be him. [[User talk:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 02:50, 27 February 2011 (EST)
+== Canon Armour (Again) ==
+In the Chess game type the pieces are Noble team, with the Pawns being 6 (haha ;) ) S312s. This version of Six has FJ/Para knees, same as just about EVERY other offical Six, and a silver visor. Six also has a silver visor on the back of the game's case, and quite a few other places too. Not sure what we should do with this, but in-game Six (and back-cover Six) seems like the closest thing to "official" we'll get. Oh, and I guess because they couldn't put Jorge in chess, the Bishops are fully white, fully default female Spartans with Air Assault helmets. I'm not sure who they're supposed to be, any ideas? As another note of intrest, as one of the glitches in Chess, as soon as you take control of a character, they become all white and have a silver visor. I've always thought FJ/Para were supposed to be default, but maybe silver visor was too? It seems that way, so if Six has FJ/Para knees and a silver visor, it would make him the original default, which would make sense. I dunno, someone will make this sound stupid pretty fast I bet...
