==Biography==
==Biography==
===Early life===
Born Vannak Amadi, he grew up on [[Tribute]] with a large family. Vannak met and was kidnapped by Dr. [[Catherine Halsey/Silver|Catherine Halsey]] when he was six. According to Halsey, even as a young boy, Vannak had honor.{{Ref/Reuse|Aleria}}

===Death===
During the [[Fall of Reach/Silver|Fall of Reach]], Vannak leapt to [[John-117/Silver|John-117]]'s defense against [[Arbiter]] [[Var 'Gatanai]], but the Arbiter impaled Vannak in the chest with a Needler round which detonated moments later, blowing a hole in Vannak's chest, killing him instantly.{{Ref/Reuse|Reach}} When [[Laera]] and [[Kwan Ha]] arrived to rescue the others, [[Riz-028/Silver|Riz]] risked her own life to recover Vannak's body, dragging it onto [[Soren's ship]] at the cost of taking a severe wound in the process.{{Ref/Reuse|Aleria}}
 
===Funeral===
{{Quote|no=two|q1=[[Reach/Silver|Reach]] was more than a place. It was a symbol. It was a monument to the human spirit... and to those who sacrificed everything to defend it. Those like... Admiral [[Jacob Keyes/Silver|Jacob Keyes]]. And this Spartan, Vannak Amadi. He was born on [[Tribute]]. I met him when he was six. I could see he had honor. He had a large family. They would be proud of his service.|Dr. Halsey|q2=His family buried him when he was six. They never knew him. But I did. His name was Vannak-134. He was a Spartan. He was our brother. And the only family that he ever knew. This... this was not an ordinary man. Everything that he was, everything that he gave... it never dies. Your fight is not done. I will be your weapon now. I will find the ones who caused your death, and I will end them.|John-117|Dr. [[Catherine Halsey/Silver|Catherine Halsey]] and [[John-117/Silver|John]] at Vannak's funeral.{{Ref/Reuse|Aleria}}}}
After arriving on [[Aleria/Silver|Aleria]], [[Kwan Ha]] insisted upon burying Vannak despite John's attempts to dissuade her. Kwan privately admitted to Vannak's body that, having been unable to bury anyone that she had lost, she needed Vannak to take their place. The locals intervened, insisting upon cremating Vannak per their traditions. In the process, the sheet covering Vannak's body slipped down, forcing John to finally face the pain of his loss. John, Riz, Dr. [[Catherine Halsey/Silver|Halsey]], Kwan and the locals held a funeral for Vannak where both Halsey and John eulogized him, Halsey describing the boy that she had met and recruited and John the man whom Vannak had become. John vowed to Vannak that he would hunt down the ones responsible for his death and end them.{{Ref/Reuse|Aleria}}

Considered the "perfect Spartan", Vannak was obedient, loyal, tough, and emotionally suppressed. He had a strong loyalty to Master Chief and admiration for him, all of which changed the second Halsey said John was compromised. However, Vannak also had a dry sense of humor, blunt attitude, and sharp retort, and enjoyed smack-talking his teammates and other Spartans.{{Ref/Reuse|Sword}} After removing his [[Emotional regulator|emotional regulator pellet]], Vannak's personality did not change for the most part, but he began showing interest in wildlife, watching "programs" about animals and even going on to feed pigeons as a secret hobby.{{Ref/Reuse|Sancturary}}{{Ref/Film|Id=Reach episode|TV|Episode=[[Reach (TV Series)|Reach]]}} He also craved combat missions and was annoyed when Silver Team was deployed for non-combat purposes or grounded from military action.{{Ref/Reuse|Sword}}
