Personality:
Jace is generally upbeat and joyous. He tries to find the best out of every situation and likes to give quirky comments during most situations especially if they're bad ones. Despite his seemingly open nature, Jace doesn't often talk about himself much. He prefers to keep the topic of conversation away from himself and his past especially. He never dwells on anything that he does and always strives to do something better. He shows great pride in himself for his chosen profession and is honoured to be fighting for the UNSC.

Biography:
Jace was born on the 3rd of April 2525 on the planet Victoria. His childhood was a mixture of constant Insurrectionist Propaganda and the threat of Covenant attack. At age 10, Jason was left orphaned when a munitions truck of an Insurrectionist Recruitment Convoy suddenly exploded, immediately killing both of his parents and injuring his older brother, who had planned to join their cause since he was 17 at the time. Broken and alone, with an injured older brother whose only care was joining the Rebels, Jason ended up in an orphanage. He very much kept to himself during his stay there, including the fact that he despised the Innies for their part in the deaths of his parents. At the age of 16 he signed up for the UNSC Army. He was immediately shipped off planet and spent the following months on board the UNSC Dauntless in Cryo Sleep as he was transported to Earth. He landed in Africa, where he was taken to UNSC B Training Facility to begin his military career.

2545: Reassigned to the UNSC Marine Special Operations 37th Tactical Deep Ground Surveillance Unit of the ODSTs.
2546: Returned to Victoria as part of a Long Range Reconnaissance Patrol.

Additional Notes
Jason has been under the watchful eye of ONI ever since his enlistment in 2541. This is because he was born on Victoria, known to host the main base of operations for the URF, Camp New Hope. After his exemplary service in the 53rd Armoured Division, ONI ordered his transfer to the Marine Corps and immediate assignment to the ODSTs. This is because his brother, Jonathan Anders, was to be the target of a Mole Operation against the URF due to his high status within the Rebel Hierarchy. Details of Operation: HUMMINGBIRD are still highly classified.

Personality/Biography: Mark by most of his family and friends is known as a fun, crazy and outgoing individual, and also one who cares a lot for his younger siblings. But a lot of that changed when he was 19 and his parents died from a Covenant attack while on vacation. Mark and his siblings survived by mere luck, with Mark having been able to grab his siblings and hide under some debris until the covenant were all gone. This situation not only shook him, making me a far more quite and reserved individual (the only side of him seen by his ODST and Marine friends) but was also what motivated him to join the UNSC, hoping he could help prevent what had happened to his own family.

Before joining the UNSC he was in college learning how to become a computer programmer, so he had some basic understanding on computer code when he joined. His life was very typical and relaxed where he mainly spent his childhood hanging out with friends, getting part time work where he could for some extra spending money and looking after his brother and sister on the days his parents were held up late at work. At UNSC all that his squadmate's know about him his the fact he has two little siblings waiting at home for him, and that he fancies a lot of time in his quarters on his computer, seemingly cut-off from the happenings of other's around him. Though he does score top grades in marksmanship and above average in military tactics.

Timeline of historical events:
2529: Born
2540: Sister was born
2542: Brother was born
2547: Graduated High School, Got into College for Computer Programming
2548: Parents died, joined the UNSC
2550: Promoted to Corporal and Assigned to the ODSTs

Field Equipment
Primary weapon: MA5C Individual Combat Weapon System
Secondary weapon: M395 Designated Marksman Rifle
Specialized Equipment: Removable Silencer's and scopes for his primary and secondary weapons.
Additional Items: Flash bangs, Sonic and Frag grenades.

Additional Notes
During the invasion that killed his parents an explosion went off that damaged the left side of his rib cage, causing scaring and sensitivity in that area. Also making it so if he's forced to run for a long period of time (10-15 minutes straight) he will start to experience mass amounts of pain and have to stop moving for a while.

Magic accepted. :)

Weapons that were used during the events of Halo 4, while listed as "Post-War" in era, likely saw use prior to the end of the Human-Covenant war. The development of a new weapon can last a decade or more sometimes, so it isn't crazy to think that these weapons would be available on a limited basis, especially to members of a Special Operations Detachment of Marines, who mostly will be involved with mission assigned by the Office of Naval Intelligence. That's why I am willing to accept Halo 4 weaponry, at least in terms of the weapons that are simply re-dresses or updates to already existing weaponry; IE, the Asault Rifle, the Pistol, the Battle Rifle etc. etc. etc. The only weapon I didn't include as an option was the Rail Gun from Halo 4, as I see that as a brand new tech of weapon. It hasn't appeared in any previous Halo games, therefore it is probably a Post-War weapon exclusively.

As far as the terminology of Fireteam, indeed it is a term used for a small 4-5 man group. I will probably adjust that, seeing as each squad is roughly three times that in size.

Additonally, the use of the E-6, and higher ranks might be high in a normal unit, or squad; but as this is not standard unit or squad, operating out of any Company, of any Battalion, of any Regiment, or Division; but rather a specially selected group of Marines who've proven their merit, and been brought together, it really isn't. This isn't a traditional military unit by any means.

I'll put up my CS tomorrow i'm like fighting to stay awake been up since 5AM lol.

Not a problem. I'm still reviewing and converting the files that I have. It's taking me some time, but I'll have at least a portion of the update done at some point late tonight.

Also, I'm not expecting both squads to be filled with Player Characters, and I'm also not requiring that the First Squad be full before filling the Second. By leaving spots open, I have room for NPCs, which can serve, putting it blatantly, as potential casualties. This is war, and in war, people die. Now, unless everyone wants to see their characters killed, then I need some NPCs to dying.

Primary Post has been updated, Database update coming momentarily as I add in all of the accepted characters thus far.

My character needs a job...

The more this is updated the more excited I get to start playing :D

I'm about half way done with the database updates; I'll probably post what I have in a moment for people to go over if the want while I continue.

I thought your character was a Corpsman/Medic?

Just updated a portion of the Database, I still need to incorporate Quadrophenia, Magic Magnum, and Stitchblade's characters. I'll get back to in a bit, right now my eyes have gone dry from staring at a monitor for the last four hours.

Oh, and I hope you don't mind my touching of your character photos. For McCoy I just want to militarize his t-shirt. For Acosta, I wanted to find a less glamorous photo, as she's a Marine. Hope you don't mind Jennifer Lawrence's look from The Hunger Games, if so, I'll work with you to find a better photo.

Also, as far as tattoo images go, I'll be adding them to your character bios later on, once I've gotten everyone else into the database.
