"Don't be spoiled, don't start a fight. Always be careful, here at night. Because the Spartans might come, in suits that weigh half a ton. And they'll steal from you all you gots, just like they did from Colonel Watts."
— Insurrectionist children's rhyme[1]

Colonel Robert Watts, known as "that bastard" by most UNSC personnel,[2] was a human insurrectionist. He was the original leader of the United Rebel Front, chiefly its cell in the Eridanus system.[3]

Biography

Watts in 2513.

Formerly an officer of the UNSC Marine Corps, Colonel Watts became a turncoat and a traitor some time before 2513, abandoning the military and joining the Eridanus Rebels. He led an insurrection in the Eridanus system, which lasted for a number of years. Soon, though, he and his forces were put down during Operation: TREBUCHET, a UNSC counter-insurrectionist offensive.

He eventually became the leader of the rebels and governor of the rebel stronghold of Eridanus Secundus. He ensured that his operation ran smoothly and that it remained relatively hidden from the UNSC. This all changed when one of his spies was discovered. In 2525, he was captured by a team of SPARTAN-IIs led by John-117, who sedated him using polypseudomorphine. They then brought Watts to the Office of Naval Intelligence for interrogation.

Colonel Watts enjoyed luxury items, such as Sweet William cigars, high-quality steaks, Beta Centauri vintage champagne, and Swiss chocolates. This vanity helped the SPARTAN-II team quickly locate and secure him by tagging the incoming delivery crates containing these items.[4]

Trivia

Colonial Military Administration personnel, whom by 2525 often had their loyalty called into question, commonly pointed out that Watts was a former UNSC Marine, which resulted in many bar fights between CMA and UNSC Marines.[5]
