Biography

Creation and work on the Ark

Isabel was created in March 2556 by scanning and replicating the neural pathways of Anarosa Carmelo, a test pilot who was killed in an accident on Mars.[5][6] Isabel did not begin her first assignment until early 2558,[7] however, having first been relocated to Earth for training. When that was completed, she was tasked with managing logistics at the Henry Lamb Research Outpost on the Forerunner Installation 00, where she was in charge of food supplies, life systems, and power management. Isablel was also given the responsibility of guiding the activation and direction of the installation's massive retriever sentinels being used to conduct repairs on the Ark.[8] Before long, those retrieval sentinels were able to work unsupervised and Isabel and the team set to the immense task of researching and cataloging the Ark.[8] Isabel's excitement for discovery and investigation was infectious among the team of researchers. Even Brewer, thought by Nathaniel Palmer to be the most jaded of the scientists there, was caught swapping jokes with her.[7] The work was tragically cut short by the unexpected closure of the portal linking the Ark to Earth on October 28, 2558 and the arrival of the Banished on November 25.[8] The [[Jiralhanae],] Decimus, led an attack on the outpost that resulted in the deaths of all of its personnel. Isabel remained hidden during the violence and began broadcasting on a secure UNSC channel in the hopes that assistance would come.[4]

The Spirit of Fire

Isabel's distress beacon which was eventually encountered by UNSC Spirit of Fire, which had arrived over the Ark through unknown means in 2559. Spartan Red Team was deployed to the Ark to investigate the beacon, where they came across Isabel.[4] They extracted her from the outpost and took her with them back to Spirit of Fire, where she informed Captain James Cutter and his crew about the state of the galaxy. While she initially urged Captain Cutter and his crew to flee the Banished, Isabel was ultimately convinced to stand along alongside them and fight Atriox's forces on the Ark.[9] Now stationed aboard the Spirit of Fire, Isabel used her logistical background to make many improvements to the ship's security and safety protocols, as well as to its various systems.[10]

Personality and traits

As a smart artificial intelligence, Isabel has vast computational power and a fully independent creative mind. Isabel considered the research team at the outpost she managed to be her friends and was greatly distraught when they were killed by the Banished in a surprise attack.[1] Having no combat experience, she became afraid and sought to escape the facility.[2] She would come to hold a grudge against the chief of the Banished, Atriox. Isabel agreed to help the crew of UNSC Spirit of Fire defeat the Banished, as she fought for retribution and desired to find a new family among the ship's crew.[1]

Behind the scenes

Isabel is portrayed Halo Wars 2 by the actress Erika Soto, who provides her voice, likeness and motion capture performance.[11] Her clothing and appearance were designed to reflect her more down-to-earth role as a logistics AI compared to more high-end military AIs such as Serina or Cortana.[12]
