A civilian, according to international humanitarian law, is a person who is not a member of his or her country's armed forces. The term is also often used colloquially to refer to people who are not members of a particular profession or occupation, especially by law enforcement agencies, which often use rank structures similar to those of military units. Often, the military's main purpose and occupation is to defend the civilians from invaders. However, many civilians, such as Dr. Catherine Halsey are involved with the military.
Civilian identification number
Several civilians are known to possess civilian identification numbers which functions similar to a UNSC Service Number. It is unknown whether all civilians are supplied such a number, or just those affiliated with certain industries or groups.
Known Civilian ID numbers
- Inna Volkov: 9081-613-7122-P[1]
- Frank O. Welker: 8813-316-0955-G[2]
- Caleb F. Aagard: 78104-985-RBA8774
- Carris R. Pernault: 65841-100-LR0200
- Kurt M. Trevelyan: 56522-026-LDR5685
- Catherine E. Halsey: 10141-026-SRB4695
In the Halo games
Civilians only play a side role in the Halo games. Examples include the Voi factory workers in Halo 3, the civilians on Arcadia in Halo Wars, and the civilians in New Alexandria, Reach in Halo: Reach. Another example is the meta-game Sadie's Story in Halo 3: ODST. However, civilian characters appear more frequently in materials outside the games.[3][4][5][6]
Both civilians and civilian vehicles have an increased role and appearance in Halo: Reach. For example, in the level Exodus, the player can save civilians that are being slaughtered by Jiralhanae. Killing a civilian in Halo: Reach results in the immediate death of the player with the message, "You killed a civilian!" Alternatively on co-op, if the player kills two civilians after respawning, Noble Team will turn on the player and kill them instantly with one shot like the Arbiter and Sgt. Johnson from Halo 3.
Civilians have a more prominent role in Halo 5: Guardians, during the Meridian story arc. The player can interact with them, gather intel in their camp, fight on their side, and discover more information on their lives.[7]
