Biography

Conscription

Jorge was born in Pálháza on Reach on March 5, 2511,[3] and was abducted and conscripted into the SPARTAN-II program by Dr. Catherine Halsey in 2517 when he was six years old. While on Reach, he was trained by the AI Déjà and Chief Petty Officer Mendez along with the rest of the Spartan children. In 2525, he and the other candidates underwent a series of augmentations to improve their overall combat prowess in several different fields.[4] Jorge was among the candidates who were not disabled or killed by the procedure.

Fall of Reach

Main article: Fall of Reach

"Jorge. Noble Five. It's good to see him home again. But the Fall of Reach will weigh heavily upon him, and this mission will test every last ounce of his strength."
Catherine Halsey.[5]

He served with Noble Team as Noble Five during the Fall of Reach in 2552, being the team's heavy weapons specialist and the only SPARTAN-II on the team.[3] At some point during the battle, Noble Team assisted UNSC forces in a besieged base, and Jorge was sent into space with SPARTAN-B312 onboard a Sabre to help the Epsilon Eridani Defense Fleet fend off the Covenant invasion force and to assist the UNSC Savannah, a UNSC frigate, in attacking a Covenant corvette.[6] It is later revealed that Jorge and Noble 6 are planning on using a FTL drive as a substitute nuke and detonating it in the corvette which is on a refuelling course heading towards a Covenant Supercarrier. Unfortunately during the ensuing battle the bomb is damaged and its auto-fire function is disabled. Jorge takes off his helmet before telling Noble 6 to "make it count" and throwing him outside the corvette. Moments later the FTL drive detonates killing Jorge in the process.

Traits and personality

Described as being very difficult to read, he is free with his opinions, vocal in his support of provincial self-rule, and just as vocal in his condemnation of the separatist and insurrectionist movements. He is the only member of Noble Team that has seen as much action, if not more, against human militants as Covenant forces.[7]

Like all SPARTAN-IIs, Jorge has seen almost thirty years of action and shows no signs of breaking or slowing. In a performance report, he is noted as "inspiring confidence in those around him" and being "rock solid" despite his long military career; this is credited to the fact he is a SPARTAN-II, and is thus considered superior to conventional soldiers in every respect.[7]
