Biography

While his team was searching for SPARTAN John-117, he alerted Sergeant Major Avery Johnson to the fact that was Covenant Loyalist activity nearby. However, doing so gave away his position and he and his squad immediately came under attack by a Type-52 "Phantom" Troop Carrier and all of Bravo, save for him, were killed.

A Brute Captain soon confronted Reynolds atop a log bridge and began to interrogate him on the location of the "Demon", but Reynolds refused to divulge any information on the whereabouts of the Demon. Just then, Master Chief's squad intervened and saved Reynolds from certain death. Reynolds then jumped off the bridge, grabbed an MA5C ICWS Assault Rifle from one of his fallen Marines, and informed the Spartan of his situation before joining him in his mission to rendezvous with Johnson at a nearby UNSC Outpost.

Reynolds, on Tsavo Highway, heads first into the enemy.

During the Second Battle of Earth in Kenya, Reynolds aided SPARTAN John-117 in his attempts to eliminate Covenant Loyalist forces in Crow's Nest with the aid of Marine Infantryman. They were later successful, though the underground base was later destroyed.

After the Battle of the Crow's Nest, Reynolds with the help of Gunnery Sergeant Pete Stacker rallied up some Marines, and found SPARTAN John-117 in an elevator, that he escaped from Crow's Nest in. They took the Warthogs from the base's motorpool and engaged Loyalist infantry and armored forces in and around the Tsavo Highway connecting Voi, Mombasa, and Arusha.

Later, his platoon pushed forward and made an assault on Traxus Factory Complex 09 in South Voi. There, they eliminated Loyalist armor and anti-air batteries, paving the way for Fleet Admiral Hood's Home Fleet to engage the Prophet of Truth's Forerunner Dreadnought. He also aided in cleansing the area during the Flood infection.

After cleansing the surrounding area, UNSC forces regrouped up on the Separatist Carrier, Shadow of Intent where Admiral Hood and Shipmaster Rtas 'Vadum talked about an assault on Loyalist forces through the Portal.

Battle of Installation 00

Reynolds in Traxus Factory Complex 09 in Voi.

During the Battle of Installation 00, Reynolds, Stacker and Johnson organized a makeshift UNSC Marine armored unit from the UNSC Forward Unto Dawn for an assault on the Ark. He helped Sergent Stacker and Spartan-117 lead a platoon of M808 Scorpion MBTs against a battalion-sized Loyalist armored force outside of the complex, and later a lurking Type-47 UHAP "Scarab".

Later in the battle, he was part of an assault to destroy infantry and armored forces on the outskirts and beachhead of the Citadel, which the Prophet of Truth was located in.He also helped in deactivating the first shield control structure with SPARTAN John-117.

Current Status

After the war, he escaped back to Earth aboard the Sangheilian Assault Carrier Shadow of Intent along with Gunnery Sergeant Stacker and the rest of the Forward Unto Dawn's surviving crew.

Trivia

  • It is possible for the player to just let the Brute kill Reynolds and not intervene. The Brute will punch him in the face and crack Reynold's spine and throw him off the bridge and into the ground below. However, he will appear in the following levels regardless.
  • After Reynolds is rescued, he runs unarmed over to a rock where a MA5C conveniently lies on and arms himself. It is possible (if you have a different weapon) run over, swap the MA5C leaning on the rock for something else, and watch Reynolds take a MA5C out of nowhere.
  • Reynolds is voiced by Hollywood actor Nathan Fillion, best known for his role in the canceled Fox TV series Firefly and its spin-off feature film Serenity. Both Adam Baldwin and Alan Tudyk, who also starred in Firefly and Serenity, voice UNSC Marine Infantryman personnel in Halo 3. Incidentally, his Firefly/Serenity character's last name was also Reynolds. The same character was also a Sergeant in the Unification War.
