Template:Character Infobox N'tho 'Sraom is a Special Operations Sangheili of the Fleet of Retribution's Special Warfare Group.[1] During the Great Schism, he assisted Thel 'Vadam's Covenant faction in their war against the Prophet of Truth and the Jiralhanae.
Biography
'Sraom is the youngest member of his Special Operations unit and is one of a growing number of human sympathizers amongst the Sangheili youth. He was born into the Sraom lineage, and lived in the state of Sraom. He is a fairly typical young male adult Sangheili, he began compulsory military service at the end of adolescence, and remains unmarried with no close, non-familial relationships outside of his martial order. N'tho 'Sraom refused to stand indolently by while the San 'Shyuum replaced Sangheili units with Jiralhanae packs, and now bears deep resentment toward those politicians who landed his kind in their current predicament.
'Sraom and Usze 'Taham continued to be active following the end of the Human-Covenant War.[2]
Personality and traits
Although N'tho 'Sraom's romanticized nationalism is emblematic of all Sangheili, he has developed a healthy respect for humanity, not for their physical abilities or martial prowess, but for their audacity and resolve.
Like most other Sangheili in service to the Covenant military, 'Sraom removed the "-ee" suffix from his name following the disbandment of the Covenant.
Equipment
Although N'tho appears to be equipped with a regular Sangheili combat harness as opposed to the standard Assault harness given to all Special Operations operators, he is still considered as a member of the Special Operations unit. However, given of the color of his armor, it could be inferred that he recently joined the Special Operations unit and perhaps the newest member of the special operations unit. This is supported by the fact that he is also the youngest member of the unit.
Trivia
- N'tho 'Sraom is a playable character in Halo 3 as the third player character over either Xbox Live or System Link and Campaign Co-op mode.[1]
- The character's name first appears in the Bungie.net article describing the Brute Chopper, even before the announcement of four-player co-operative play, though then he was called 'N'thro 'Sraom.[3]
- N'tho has apparently been a vital source of information for the UNSC, detailing Jiralhanae rank structure and, in particular, the specific role the Choppers play within the Jiralhanae ranks.[3]
- When he activates his flashlight, the light is simply projected with no point of origin, as no visible flashlight is on his shoulder. This also applies to 4th player's character, Usze 'Taham.
- Both N'tho 'Sroam and Usze 'Taham have their leg holstered weapons appear backwards. This is most apparent with the Needler, with the side that has the protruding needles opposite the direction of other Elite models.
- Occasionally, N'tho 'Sroam will spawn without a helmet.
