[/armor]



>Personality:Thomas is a kind-hearted soul. In fact, if you ask the ONI, they’d say he’s too soft. Thomas couldn’t hurt a human if he tried, and he doesn’t revel in the killing of ailens. He’s generally likeable, though his incessant chatter drove Rich-A196 up the wall. He makes friends easily, but he’s often considered childish. He sincerely cares about his teamates, and to a greater extent, everyone. He’s devastated over the almost complete destruction of his fireteam. As a result of Prosperity’s status, he’s grown protective of Amber, his only surviving teammate. As it stands, Tommy’s only goal is to make an awful situation better, difficult as that may be.

>Armour Enhancements: Mend: A medicinal aerosol spray (contained in a small tube on the underside of the left arm) is spray on any wound. The spray contains stem cells that aid healing, as well as a painkiller and disinfectant. (Should this not be accepted, I’ll just take Armor Lock)

>A.I: Chauncey (Shawn-see): A AI with a sharp tongue and a pessimistic attitude. His logical outlook on situations provides an antithesis to Thomas’s naively optimistic attitude.
 Imagine this, but more hologramy, I suppose

>General Background: Born on Eridanus II in 2529, Thomas’s childhood was mostly happy. The single defining moment of his pre spartan years came about when he was four. While his parents were away, the house caught fire. Thomas managed to drag his twelve year old brother out of the house, saving his life. He then helped his sixteen-year-old brother control the fire. Eventually, his oldest brother sustained severe burns and Thomas was left to fight the blaze alone. By the time help arrived, Tommy had gotten the fire under control. He was not able to save the life of his oldest brother, and developed an aversion (perhaps irrational fear) to fire.
	This incident, combined with his intelligence, drew the attention of the Spartan program. He was taken from his home and enrolled when he was six. He was trained and augmented without incident, making friends with Amir-CA22 (currently MIA,status unknown). He proved to be a fairly average soldier in terms of skill, but he excelled in boosting the morale of his teammates. After the completion of their training, Amir and Thomas replaced two fallen members of Fireteam Prosperity, later joined by rookies Amber and Adam. They served competently through multiple operations, eventually being selected as part of the force for the Oman operation. The Fireteam’s pelican was shot down by Covenant forces. Amir, Adam, and Jane were nowhere to be found (though evidence suggests that Adam and Jane were likely killed) and Rich died while defending against Covenant forces after the crash. Tommy healed a wounded Amber and fled from the crash site.   

>Notable Training Records:
Induction phase

Subject: My Spartan Group
Dr. (REDACTED), I was made aware that you asked for a report on my Spartan group. Most of them are acting exactly as expected, lots of crying. I have noticed that two of them, Amir and Thomas have already begun to converse. They dealt with the shock through companionship. I just hope to God they know they can't rely on that.

Early testing

Subject: Testing Report
Early testing has eliminated six of the original thirty-two. Most of them were are at about the level we expected. Amir proved to be extremely agile, and a crack shot at that. Thomas appears to be fairly average in most categories, but he displays remarkable intelligence and people skills. He also has a high affinity towards medical skills. It's a damn shame that he's a Spartan, he'd make a great doctor. A good politician perhaps. Either way, those are the only two that stuck out to me.

Augmentation process

Subject: Augmentation Report
I used to wonder if what we were doing to these kids was wrong. Now, I don't wonder. I know. If there's a hell, we're well on our way. Granted, we'll likely have saved the human race, but still. Of the twenty-six, twelve rejected the augmentations. 8 of those twelve died, the rest are deformed beyond use for the program. My two star pupils took to the augmentations perfectly. Amir is blindingly fast, I'm willing to bet that he'll give (REDACTED) a run for her money. Thomas has continued to show high intelligence and mediation.

Final Testing

Subject:Deployment.
The Spartans are ready, as you so kindly demanded, Admiral. We've determined that all of the remaining 14 are fit for duty. I request that you deploy Amir and Tommy into the same Fireteam (Prosperity has two open spots?) as they work wonderfully together. That, and I fear that their performance will decline should they be separated. Thomas would probably best fill the role of a medic or an advance scout. Amir is exceptionally skilled and would make a fine general infantryman.
