'''Lieutenant Commander Fhajad-084''' was selected as one of the [[Spartan-II|Spartan-II candidates]]. He had all the qualities a [[Spartan]] would need. Unfortunately, he never became one.<ref>[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]], Pages 61-62</ref>

Fhajad was a dark skinned boy with good eyes and ears. As the Spartan children trained, Fhajad often acted as a scout. He fell into a close friendship with [[John-117]] and [[Samuel-034]] early on. Fhajad would likely have become the best tracking and scouting Spartan, but after he failed to make it through augmentations, he developed Parkinson's disease. He shook without control and was unable to walk, yet his mind was seemingly undamaged.  His tracking role would later be replaced by other Spartans like [[Anton-044]].<ref>[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]], Pages 61-62</ref> He may be of Arab or Indian descent, judging by his name and dark skin.

Fhajad published a paper on [[Slipspace]] physics in [[2540]]. It later appeared in the [[UNSC Astrophysics Journal]]. [[Captain Keyes|Commander Jacob Keyes]], having remembered studying Fhajad with Dr. Halsey, saved this paper. When he commanded the {{UNSCShip|Iroquois}} on patrol near [[Sigma Octanus IV]], he reread this paper after noticing a Slipspace anomaly in the hourly report from [[Ensign William Lovell]] of the [[Remote Scanning Outpost]] ''[[Archimedes]]''. This paper effectively gave the [[UNSC]] warning of the approaching [[Covenant]] forces, allowing Keyes time to conjure the [[Keyes Loop]] and gain the upper hand, during the [[Battle of Sigma Octanus IV]].<ref>[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]], Pages 141-142</ref>

His current whereabouts are unknown. He may have been assigned to [[CASTLE Base]] or some other ONI facility on [[Reach]], and may be dead after the [[Battle of Reach]]. Then again, he could also be posted on [[Earth]] at a facility such as [[HighCom Facility Bravo-6]].

On the title of the paper, Fhajad is referred to as "Fhajad-034". However, this is impossible because at this point on the book, SPARTAN-034 has been clearly defined as [[Samuel-034]]. Therefore, we must assume that this is a typo on the account of the author or the editor. The number closest resembling the incorrect 3 is 8, so it has been widely accepted that Fhajad is in fact, Spartan-084. This has not been confirmed.

Lieutenant Commander Fhajad-084[1] is an Office of Naval Intelligence data analyst and a former SPARTAN-II candidate. He was reassigned to ONI after being crippled by the SPARTAN-II augmentation procedures in 2525.[2]

Biography[edit]

Fhajad was abducted by ONI at the age of six in September 2517, after Doctor Catherine Halsey identified him as a flawless genetic match for the SPARTAN-II Program. He was replaced with a flash clone and was taken to Reach, where his surname was replaced with the numeric tag "-084". He was then trained with the other Spartan children by Chief Petty Officer Franklin Mendez and the AI Déjà.[3]

Along with the other Spartan candidates, Fhajad participated in several training missions at Military Reservation 01478-B, the Military Wilderness Training Preserve, and the surrounding Highland Mountains.[4] He often acted as a scout due to his superior vision and hearing. Throughout the training he developed a close friendship with John-117 and Samuel-034.[2]

During the candidates' augmentation procedures in 2525, Fhajad suffered from complications with the fifth augmentation: superconducting fabrication of neural dendrites. This caused him to develop severe Parkinson's disease. His body shook without control and was unable to walk, but his mind was undamaged. No longer physically fit to serve as a Spartan, Fhajad was discharged from the program and was relegated to a desk job with the Office of Naval Intelligence.[2]

In May 2540 he published a paper on slipspace physics that later appeared in UNSC Astrophysics Journal 034-23-01. Commander Jacob Keyes, who had aided Dr. Halsey in her study of the Spartan candidates, later used this article to predict the approach of Covenant forces to Sigma Octanus IV in July 2552; this allowed the UNSC to turn the tide of the ensuing space battle.[5]

Trivia[edit]

  • Fhajad's service number 84 is a multiple of seven: 84/12=7. He is one of only two known Spartan-IIs (the other being Douglas) that have 7 as a factor of their number.
  • Fhajad is one of two Spartans-IIs to achieve the rank of Lieutenant Commander, the other being Kurt Ambrose.
