| ==Biography==
| |
| Thom, along with Tech Officer [[Samuel Marcus]], unsealed [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartan]] [[John-117]] from his [[cryo-chamber]] before the [[Battle of Installation 04]]. He ran him through several diagnostics and tests for his [[MJOLNIR Mark V]] armor. Soon after, [[Captain]] [[Jacob Keyes]] called the Chief to the [[bridge]] of the ship as a boarding party of [[Covenant]] arrived. A single [[Sangheili]] entered the control center of Cryo-B, killing Marcus. Shephard then told the [[Master Chief Petty Officer|Master Chief]] to follow him to the bridge and rushed out the door, where he was killed by a conduit explosion in the wall.<ref>'''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''', campaign level ''[[The Pillar of Autumn (Halo: Combat Evolved level)|The Pillar of Autumn]]''</ref>

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *In the original ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' Shephard's appearance will vary slightly from each playthrough, appearing as generic crewman models. In ''Anniversary'' Shephard has his own unique character model based on Mathieu, a Make-a-Wish kid who wanted to live forever in ''Halo''.<ref>'''[[Halo Waypoint]]''', ''The Halo Bulletin: 3.19.14''</ref>
