A good character sheet, but I do have one concern; Spartans III's are conscripted at a young age (Between 8-11, I believe), without consent. I don't think your character sheet goes with this. You could always have them as a highly trained Marine 'War Machine', with ODST type armour, but not a Spartan as your current character stands.

Character Name: Joseph Hicks 'Hicks'
Military Rank: Lieutenant
Gender: Male
Age: 30
Role: Marine, second in command(If that's ok, Lieutenant is one under Captain so I thought it was necessary. I understand if you want me to change)
Appearance:

History: Hicks grew up in Edinburgh, Scotland on a farm. His father often took Hicks out into the wide open field and taught him how to shoot using his shotgun mostly for fun but also for hunting any foxes that ate their chickens. As he grew up the farmers life took less and less appeal from him. The military life that he saw on TV all the time was the most appealing thing to him. He loved using the shotgun so what could be better than using it all the time? Around his 19th birthday his dream came true. He was accepted to join the military and his father, although he wanted him to be a farmer gladly helped him by giving him his shotgun.

Hicks' second mission was one he'd never forget. They were doing recon one night when the unexpected happened. They were ambushed by guerrilla forces who captured them and held them captive for ransom. The captors tortured them every night until finally the UNSC paid for their release. By the time they were released most of his squad were dead. Hicks' was barely alive but he was fine. The UNSC demanded he go home with a purple heart but Hicks' wouldn't have it. He remained in the UNSC for 11 years gradually rising through the ranks until he got to where he is now.
Personality: Hicks is the one to keep a level head and stay calm throughout a crisis, even when the odds continued to pile up against him he still values keeping everyone safe than risking deaths. He prefers to keep morale up when not in crises and so he makes jokes and cracks wise a lot.
Skills: He is more of an up close fighter and as such he has a great deal of experience with shotguns. He also knows how to fight with a knife very well, his hand to hand skills are a teensey bit above the average soldiers. He can think under pressure very well and can improvise in just about any situation.
Equipment: He has his Armor that is different from the UNSC regulated one. Nothing is really different other than it letting him move a bit more freely. He carries an Ithaca M37 that his father owned along with a battle rifle and a knife.

Character Name: Jason Kelly Deyario
Military Rank: Sergeant
Gender: Male
Age: 27
Role: ODST Sergeant
Appearance:
History: Jason was what may be referred to as a "Military brat" growing up. Because of this, he learned to cherish his friends while he had them. He was a social young man, but had a strange demeanor of innocence. He was constantly trying to make friends, but always showed reluactance to fight other people.

This all changed when Jason was sent to Prep School. Here, he learned aggresiveness, and he found it was rather fun. Because of this, Jason quickly began to join various sports and clubs. Kick-boxing, Track, if you could name it Jason tried it. Through it all, he had only two friends who were always around, a girl his age named Dalia and a guy named Jeff.

Jason's current shy demeanor emerged in his senior year. He and Dalia had begun dating recently, as it seemed only natural as a progression. However, one day Jason was parting around town with some of his "on again off again" friends, and he noticed something. Sittin in a restauraunt booth was Dalia with Jeff, and he saw them kissing. After that day, he never spoke to either of them again, and became much more reserved. He almost never spoke, and right out of prep school he joined the Marines. Fresh from boot, Jason was assigned to the Marine 122nd Infantry. Serving in the 122nd, Jason quickly earned a reputation as a reliable soldier, helping his squadmates at every juncture. He was given a position as the Squad's Corporal, and served in several battles with the Covies. He became an expert runner, so to speak, able to move quickly around the battle-field.

Jason's level of skill was noted by the Company's CO, and Jason's squad frequently served in fast-attack missions. He served in several battles in this function, before Jason was re-assigned. He was made a candidate in the ODST program and graduated near the top of his class. After graduating, his squad fought in many battles against the covenant. Slowly, he worked his way up to the rank of Sergeant, by being a reliable second in command for his squad-leader. When he was made Squad-Leader, however, his team was split apart. His troopers were scattered and he was re-assigned to the Abandon All Hope.
Personality: Due to his past, Jason is very shy when off-duty. Because of the insulation from the world it provides, Jason rarely removes his ODST armor. He is very dedicated to protecting his men, giving his all to defend his men. When forced into social situations, Jason tries to act funny, while maneuvering himself out of the situation. However, if you manage to get him to trust you, he'll usually talk to you as much as you want, and he'll do almost anything for you.
Skills: Jason is very good with both the Assault and Battle rifle, along with the M7 SMG, and it's Spec-ops variant the M7S. He is skilled at driving most military vehicles as well. He is a skilled sniper, although he isn't as good as a dedicated sniper. While he can hold his own in CQC, he is certainly far from being an expert.
Equipment: http://browse.deviantart.com/art/ODST-Sniper-140341957 His Armor, His weaponry is an M7S SMG, and SRS99C Sniper Rifle, with the sniper rifle being exchanged with an MA5C when he doesn't wish to snipe.
Other: N/A

Here is my character. (Note: I will also control the Captain of the ship in an NPC role, just to move the plot forward. Anyone is free to use him in your posts, however).

Character Name: Markus Thompson.

Military Rank: Lieutenant.

Gender: Male.

Age: Twenty Three.

Role: Spartan, Second in command of Sierra Team.

Appearance: Even for a Spartan, Markus is relatively tall, standing half a foot taller than the rest of his fellow Sierra Team Squad members, yet holding the same strong, athletic build as the rest of them. With his buzz cut chestnut hair, and deeply blue eyes, he is rarely seen without his armour, if ever; he takes comfort in wearing it, separating him emotionally from the rest of the UNSC. Due to the amount of time spent within his standard Mark IV Mjolnir, he has unnaturally, almost hauntingly pale skin.

History: Markus was raised within the UNSC from the age of nine, being placed in the Spartan III program like so many his age. Like his fellow Spartan's, he was trained to be the best the UNSC had to offer; the war with the Covenant was costly and destructive, and the UNSC needed the fighting potential of the legendary Spartan II's, but much faster, and more importantly, cheaper. During his years of military training, Markus was quickly recognised to be extremely skilled at improvising in combat situations; they would leave him for weeks behind enemy lines during the combat simulations, and surely, Markus would survive. Testing this, he was placed in rebel territory with two other Spartan's at the age of twelve. He was given the location of his evac, given no weapons or armour, and told they had three days to reach it, or they would be left behind. During this time, he made his way through rebel territory, capturing weapons and supplies. Only two of the three made it out of the rebel territory, with the third volunteering to stay behind as a distraction after receiving an injury. Since, he has been in many engagements against the Government, seeing up close the true damage the Covenant can do. Then he was placed in Sierra Team, being second in command. Now, he is in cryo sleep on-board the UNSC Destroy Class Ship, 'Abandon All Hope'.

Personality: Markus tries to keep a safe, emotional distance from the rest of the UNSC; it isn't from being cold or withdrawn, but rather, helping him keep a level head in the heat of combat. However, he disregards this when working with his fellow Spartans, keeping an almost sibling type bond with them as their second in command.

Skills: Markus' skills fall into two categories; close, hand to hand combat, and surviving without supplies or back-up. He is intelligent and quick thinking, but often lacks the ability to make the cold, calculating decisions that often need to be made.

Equipment: Markus wears the standard variant of the Mark IV Mjolnir armour, black tinted and faded from almost endless combat. His Battle Rifle is his weapon of choice, complemented by his standard UNSC M6D High Powered Pistol. Other than that, he finds what he needs in the field.
