Personality and traitsEdit

Ackerson is a formidable intel operative.

Despite his hard exterior, Ackerson has shown moments of vulnerability. Ackerson was shown to care deeply about his father and to be devastated by the loss of his sister Julia. While arguing with Jacob Keyes over abandoning Reach, there was clear anguish in his voice as Ackerson stated that Reach was his home too and he would be losing everything by abandoning it. Ackerson chose to euthanize his father to keep him from the Covenant and provided the man with a clone of Julia to comfort their father in his final moments.[1]

After discovering what Admiral Parangosky planned to do with his Spartan-III's, Ackerson defected to the Master Chief's side, unwilling to sacrifice so many Spartans on a suicide mission that would destroy both the Covenant and UNSC fleets involved in the battle. Ackerson agreed to help expose what Parangosky did to Reach even though it would mean the cost of destroying himself too in the process.[5]

Production notesEdit

James Ackerson is portrayed by Joseph Morgan in Season Two of Halo: The Television Series.[2]
