===Conscription===
Victor was born around [[2511]] and was one of a genetic make-up that the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] and Dr. [[Catherine Halsey|Halsey]] were interested in. After being selected as a suitable candidate for the [[SPARTAN-II program]] in [[2517]], he was abducted and sent to [[Reach]], and trained by the [[Artificial Intelligence|AI]] [[Déjà]] and [[Chief Petty Officer]] [[Franklin Mendez|Mendez]], along with the rest of the Spartan children. He was assigned to Team Black, and trained with the other teams such as the [[Red Team]].{{Ref/Reuse|issue2}}

Victor was among the ones who survived and were not crippled by the procedure. As far as the majority of her fellow Spartans were aware, Victor was killed during the surgeries. In actuality, she and the three other members of Black Team survived and were placed under the direct authority of the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]], unlike the rest, who reported to [[Naval Special Weapons]].

===Training===
While being trained by [[Senior Chief Petty Officer|SCPO]] [[Franklin Mendez]], [[Margaret-053]] and [[Otto-031]] secretly had a romantic relationship. Victor was jealous of them and reported them to Mendez, who sent both to the brig. [[Red Team]] then heard of this and tracked down Margaret. In the ensuing struggle, Margaret lost her left eye to send the message that her team should take their training seriously. Soon, Black Team gave Red Team a beating in return and were given a ten-day stint in the brig as a result. The team never spoke of the incident again.<ref>'''Halo: Blood Line''', ''[[Halo: Blood Line Issue 3|Issue 3]]''</ref> However, Victor was so jealous of Otto and One that he developed a false memory that it was he who'd had the relationship with Margaret.<ref name="issue4">'''Halo: Blood Line''', ''[[Halo: Blood Line Issue 4|Issue 4]]''</ref><ref name="issue5">'''Halo: Blood Line''', ''[[Halo: Blood Line Issue 5|Issue 5]]''</ref>

In [[2525#March|March 2525]], Victor and the other candidates underwent [[Project ASTER|a series of augmentations]] to improve their combat prowess.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HFoR6|HFoR|Chapter=6}} Victor and the rest of Black Team washed-out, their bodies initially rejecting the augmentations. They were presumably retrained and successfully re-augmented along with some of the other washouts. Following this, Black Team was recruited by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] for operations that were strictly off the record.{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22P69|Enc22|Page=69}}

During the [[Human-Covenant War]], Team Black fought the [[Covenant]] in various battles. During one mission, they boarded a [[Covenant cruiser]] using [[C-12 shaped charge]]s<ref>'''Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe''', "Blunt Instruments", ''page 202''</ref> and one where they destroyed a [[Citadel (Covenant)|Covenant base facility]].{{Ref/Reuse|issue5}} Another mission for ONI saw them sent to [[Mamore]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22P69}}

In [[2552|mid-2552]], they were sent to destroy a Covenant [[Beacon]] on the Covenant-occupied human colony of [[Verge]]. After landing, the team made their way past fortified anti-aircraft emplacements to [[Ciudad de Arias]], the city where the Beacon was situated. Once there, they assessed the Beacon's defenses from a skyscraper, observing a large swarm of [[Yanme'e]], guarded by [[Kig-yar]] and some [[Mgalekgolo]]. [[Roma-143]] then found an injured, apparently non-hostile Yanme'e. Nicknamed "[[Hopalong]]", it told them of an alternate, hidden route to the Beacon. The rest of the team decided to trust the Yanme'e despite their suspicions.

In the next morning, the team proceeded to move to the Beacon through the tunnels, led by Hopalong. Each of them would go separate ways and plant C-12 shaped charges on each of the Beacon's four [[Anti-gravity technology|anti-gravity pylons]]. After a ten-minute countdown, the team was ordered to place their charges on the pylons. Meanwhile, Hopalong acquired a Covenant computer device from one of the Kig-yar guards and proceeded to free the Yanme'e, who then started attacking the Spartans and the Covenant. Instead of [[Slavery|slaves]], as Hopalong had led the Spartans to believe, they were actually [[Unmutuals|psychopathic prisoners]].

One ordered the team to return to the rally point at the tunnel entrance, but Two discovered an intact underground train they could use to escape. While Victor and Margaret headed for the train, Two went to rescue Otto who was injured. On her way back, Two also detonated the charges on the Beacon, brining it crashing down. They managed to get onboard and they escaped the city as the tunnels caved in under the collapsing Beacon, and headed to a [[D77-TC Pelican|Pelican dropship]] for exfiltration.{{Ref/Reuse|evo}}

Some time after the mission on Verge, Victor and the team were assigned to [[Operation: BLOWBACK]] onboard the ONI vessel ''[[Long Time Coming]]''. After the ship crashed on an [[Unidentified moon|uncharted moon]], Victor was assigned to carry the [[Artificial Intelligence|AI]] [[Iona]] within his MJOLNIR suit. When Margaret was captured by mechanical [[Gatherer]]s, Victor and Otto reluctantly allied with the Covenant forces also on the moon in order to rescue their captured comrades.{{Ref/Reuse|issue1}}{{Ref/Reuse|issue2}} However, the [[Forerunner]] [[monitor]] of the Installation, [[686 Ebullient Prism]], hacked into Victor's MJOLNIR HUD, tricking him into attacking his allies, wounding Roma-143.

Line 58: Line 50:
In late [[2557#July|July 2557]], Victor, along with the rest of Black Team, were serving as a security detail for a UNSC science team in a desert on the surface of [[Installation 03]]. On July 25, they lost contact with the nearby ''[[Ivanoff Station]]'' due to the [[Ur-Didact]]'s [[Raid on Ivanoff Station|attack]]. Subsequently, numerous inbound [[slipspace]] signatures began to appear in the sky, one of them landing near Black Team's location. Victor and the others made their way to the impact crater, where they discovered an unconscious Ur-Didact, who had been knocked into a slipspace rupture by [[John-117]] during the [[New Phoenix Incident]], although they remained unaware of who the Didact was. While the Spartans speculated on the possibility that the slipspace signatures may mark the arrival of an invasion force, the Didact suddenly awoke. Furious, the Promethean declared the humans' presence unacceptable and savagely killed Victor and the rest of Spartan Black along with the nearby scientists.<ref>'''Halo: Escalation''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 9|Issue 9]]''</ref> One of the team's male members, either Victor or [[Otto-031]], was decapitated by the Didact.<ref name="HE8">'''Halo: Escalation''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 8|Issue 8]]''</ref>

After the UNSC lost contact with Black Team and the science outpost, [[Terrence Hood|Admiral Terrence Hood]] dispatched [[Blue Team]] to investigate the disturbance. Upon their arrival at the camp the following day, the Spartans of Blue Team found the bodies Black Team and the scientists. Shortly afterward, Blue Team was ambushed by [[Promethean]] constructs.{{Ref/Reuse|HE8}}

==Personality and traits==
==Personality and traits==
Victor was generally quiet, reserved and exceptionally calm; no matter the situation, Roma noted that Victor's voice never as much as wavered, something she found both loveable and extremely disturbing.<ref>'''Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe''', "Blunt Instruments", ''page 21''</ref> This made him appear near-emotionless to the outside, and particularly hard to read. Despite this however, he appeared to only contain his emotions, as he suffered an emotional outburst during the battle at the Line Installation when reflecting upon an incident in the team's training days. This, coupled with the fact he developed a false memory he genuinely believed in about the relationship incident would suggest he may have been somewhat emotionally unstable.
