Template:Character Infobox Professor Evan W. Phillips is a human cultural xenoanthropologist distinguished as being a highly fluent speaker of the Sangheili language.
Biography
Phillips served as a xenoanthropology professor in Wheatley University,[1] before he was recruited by the Office of Naval Intelligence to serve as a Sangheili expert in the clandestine unconventional warfare unit Kilo-Five, which was tasked with sowing dissent among the Sangheili in the aftermath of the Human-Covenant War.
In February 2553, Phillips along with Captain Serin Osman, Corporal Vaz Beloi and Admiral Lord Terrence Hood, were the first humans to visit Sangheilios. There, 'Vadam and Lord Hood discussed about peace and the fragile state of both their species. 'Vadam took great interest in Phillips and invited him to return and study Sangheili history and culture on their homeworld.[2]
During a mission on Sanghelios, Phillips was shown to be adept at figuring out the Sangheili toy and puzzle, the arum, a skill which earned him respect from the Sangheili.

Personality and traits
It was noted that though Phillips may appear to be naive at first, having an almost child-like academic curiosity especially in regards to the Sangheili. Despite this, he was remarked as being surprisingly competent, even devious, by Captain Serin Osman.[3][4]
Phillips is a small man, mentioned as being slightly fitter than the average civilian. He has reddish-brown "scrubby" hair and a beard.[5] He is roughly in his thirties as of 2553.[6]
