"Ray was one of the most selfless human beings I had ever had the pleasure to know. He went way out of his comfort zone time and again. Bravely sacrificing over and over. I don't think I can ever truly make him understand how much that meant to me."
Benjamin Giraud

Raymond "Ray" Kurzig is a civilian analyst circa 2558. He is a friend of both Benjamin Giraud and Petra Janecek.[1]

Biography

John-117 Conspiracy

Ray was called in by Benjamin Giraud during the latter's investigation of John-117 to debunk conflicting information found on both the Master Chief's parents and his death. In the area on business, Ray meets with Ben to show him financial records indicating that the Master Chief's parents were still alive after 2524 and further conflicting with all of the other information Ben had been given previously.[2]

Personality and traits

According to Giraud, Ray was emotionless, treating astonishing discoveries with surprising calm.[3] While he frequently met with Giraud in person, he was not the kind to suggest a friendly hangout unless he were unusually happy.[4] Partly due to this, though, Ray was an extremely efficient analyst skilled at tediously challenging work like combing through "the slush", the enormous dump of unprotected data from interplanetary network. He was connected to various data scavengers in the colonies, whose findings put together that ONI's claims about the Master Chief were false. Ray could be meek and have a low temper, which sometimes let Giraud walk over him when he was in an emotional high. Fortunately, Ray was also patient with him and thus was soon to forgive him when Giraud apologized. The only time he asked Giraud for a favor was when it concerned his family, when he feared they might be in danger due to the recent chaos in the Outer Colonies.[5]

Production note

Ray is portrayed by American actor Phil LaMarr in Hunt the Truth.[6]
