Brilliant and fearless scientist.

Professor Ellen Anders is one of the Spirit of Fire's most valuable weapons. A

brilliant scientist with expertise in fields as far ranging as theoretical xeno-

biopsychology and high-energy physics. She has also proven to have an

exceptional grasp of Forerunner technology and has displayed a command of

Forerunner control systems which impresses even Isabel.

Although her official designation remains 'civilian consultant', Professor Anders

has become the de-facto right hand and advisor of Captain Cutter on the Spirit

of Fire and has also earned the respect and trust of the troops she works with

in the field.

Anders is able to theorize the function and determine the use of almost any

alien technology. She has a displayed a particular affinity for controlling

Forerunner constructs, and can redirect the Ark's own drones for her own use

as well as manipulate their actions with specialized instruments of her own

design.
