If you were looking for the trope, see Holy Halo.Halo is a Space Opera and Military Science Fiction franchise that began life as an Xbox exclusive First-Person Shooter created by Bungie Studios and published by Xbox Game Studios. It has since blossomed into multiple sequels, Gaiden Games, a substantial Expanded Universe, and the centerpiece of Xbox Game Studios.In the 26th century, Earth and its colonies are at war with an alien theocracy known as the Covenant, whose leaders have declared humanity an affront to their gods. While the United Nations Space Command is vastly outmatched by the Covenant's superior numbers and Forerunner-based technology, mankind has one advantage: the SPARTAN-II Super-Soldier program.The Spartans, clad in Powered Armor and led by Master Chief Petty Officer John-117, are unmatched as warriors, but even they are not invincible, and by the start of the first game the Chief is among The Last of His Kind. Over the course of the series, he and Cortana, his A.I. sidekick, battle the Covenant and discover the "Halos": massive Forerunner Ring Worlds hiding immense power.The core of Halo gameplay revolves around the wrinkles it presents in the First-Person Shooter formula.

Aliens Speaking English
 Halo (Franchise) / int_1049848f
comment
Aliens Speaking English: In most of the games, you can hear the cowardly Grunts shout things like "he's everywhere!" and "run for your lives!" when you attack them, along with many other goofy bits of dialogue. They're the only Covenant who speak English in the first game, with the official explanation being that the UNSC hadn't quite finished translating the other Covenant languages yet. In the subsequent games (with the exception of Reach and 4), the Brutes and Elites will also shout at you in English, presumably because MJOLNIR models from the Mark VI onward have updated translation software, due to Cortana accessing a Covenant lexicon aboard the Ascendent Justice in First Strike. There are also scenes of the Covenant speaking English among themselves, which is obviously Translation Convention at work. Averted in Reach and Halo 4, where the Covenant - even Grunts - do not speak English. Reach is justified by Noble Six not having the necessarily translation software, but there's no real explanation for 4, since Master Chief's and Fireteam Crimson's translation software should be up-to-date; this could be because the Covenant remnant spoke in a then-untranslated dialect. The Covenant in Halo 4 deliberately do not speak English due to an edict by their leader Jul 'Mdama. It still doesn't explain why the various languages are not translated by your armour however. Not only do the Elites and Grunts return to speaking English in Halo 5: Guardians, but the Jackals now speak it too. The expanded universe features this trope too, with all of it justified by translation software, said aliens being trained in English, or simple translation convention.

Abusive Precursors
 Halo (Franchise) / int_109b036e
comment
The Forerunners genuinely wished to protect the galaxy and its inhabitants, but they grew arrogant and complacent because of their extremely advanced technology, to the point where they eventually became imperialists who prioritized their own self-aggrandizement at least as much as the rest of the galaxy's well-being. When the Flood came knocking, they realized that they had left their charges weak and dependent, and could only defeat the Flood through a desperate last resort plan - killing all remaining sentient life in the Milky Way, including most of the surviving Forerunners, in order to starve out the parasite. Ultimately, the end of their ecumene could be interpreted as a Heroic Sacrifice or the cost of their foolishness/sins, depending on how idealistic/cynical one is. (and that's not counting the Forerunner remnants fought in Halo 4, whose leader, The Didact, wants to enslave if not exterminate mankind, and was downright exiled for extremism)

Anyone Can Die
 Halo (Franchise) / int_1237828f
comment
Anyone Can Die: Very much so. Indeed, despite 343i's claim that the franchise was not going to be like Game of Thrones, they themselves have killed off a number of established characters, most notably Cortana in Halo 4, and the Rookie in New Blood, with the latter death being particularly noteworthy because a playable protagonist got unceremoniously killed off in a short novel.

Abnormal Ammo: The Needler, Needle rifle, and related weapons shoot pink/purple crystals (made of a material called "blamite") that detonate a few seconds after impact. Additionally, the Covenant Carbine fires ammo made from a poisonous and radioactive compound. The weaponry wielded by Promethean constructs utilize hard-light ammunition. Some of it can completely disintegrate even MJOLNIR armor.

Rape as Drama
 Halo (Franchise) / int_12dd1d4c
comment
Rape as Drama: Strongly implied in the third game with the interactions between Cortana and Gravemind. This was confirmed in the story Human Weakness in Halo Evolutions, which shows that the Gravemind was also making Cortana live the experiences of individuals who were consumed by the Flood, with its constant breaking speeches questioning not only her actions, but her very existence, driving Cortana to a tragically broken state by the time the Master Chief saves her. On the level "Cortana", a message plays on the crashed Pelican which draws about as close a parallel as possible, given that the victim isn't corporeal.

comment
Heroic Mime: The Rookie, which is repeatedly lampshaded. Subverted in Halo 1 through 3 as neither the Arbiter or Master Chief speak when playing as them in First Person, but do say a few words in third person cutscenes. The other troopers in the ODST squad completely avert this trope, often speaking out both in and out of cutscenes while you're inside their head. Master Chief averts this in Halo 4, though mostly conversing with Cortana outside of cutscenes. Averted in Halo 5: Guardians with Blue Team and Fireteam Osiris, more so with the latter actively sharing banter outside of cutscenes.

Unexpected Gameplay Change: Combat Evolved ends with a timed driving mission through an obstacle course. Halo 3 repeats that, but is has become undeniably more perilous in nature since its Halo 1 days. The Banshee and Hornet flying sequences may fit this too.

Crosses the Line Twice
 Halo (Franchise) / int_148e222c
comment
The effect of the "Grunt Birthday Party" skull, which causes confetti to pop out of a Grunt's head upon scoring a headshot, accompanied by the sound of small children shouting "Hooray!" Bungie confirmed it to be a shout out to Viva Piñata, even mentioning that the Viva Piñata team sent them the actual audio file used in the game. The Master Chief Collection takes it even further with the "Grunt Funeral" skull (available only in Halo 1 & 2), which makes dead Grunts explode like grenades shortly after the body stops moving. This basically turns the poor Grunts into walking explosive barrels. Unlike grenades, other enemies won't move away from Grunt corpses, either. And Grunt corpse explosions are also doubled in size and power by the "Boom" skull. Combine with "Grunt Birthday Party" for maximum hiliarity. Just try to avoid blowing yourself up in the process.

Darker and Edgier: Halo 3 is the darkest of the original trilogy, the first two games largely avoided the implications of just how many had died/were dying in the Covenant War, but this game has Earth After the End and takes an Anyone Can Die approach to the main characters. Halo Reach feels more like a war movie, with Reach falling and almost all of Noble Team dying.

Hero Antagonist: Sesa 'Refumee's Heretics are disillusioned Grunts and Elites that found out the truth about Halo and formed a independent resistance movement against the Covenant, and are attempting to sway more defectors to their cause. The better sorts of Insurrectionists are this as well, though even their methods of combating the UNSC aren't as noble as their motives for wanting out of it.

Evil Versus Evil: Given there is a Big Bad Ensemble, one can witness in the original trilogy the Covenant against itself, the Flood (in 3, they downright have a brief truce with Master Chief lest the Prophets activate the Halo and kill everything) and the Sentinels, and in 4, the Covenant against the Forerunners.

No Biochemical Barriers: Averts "All Atmospheres are Breathable" with the Grunts having to wear SCUBA gear since they breathe methane. Plays "Multispecies Plague" straight with the Flood, since they can infect any creature that's A) sapient, and B) large enough to carry the basketball-sized Infection Form in its chest. This excludes Hunter worms and Drones, since they lack the complex neural systems needed for direct infection (though they can still be easily converted into Flood biomass).

comment
Not-So-Harmless Villain: A gameplay example is basic Grunts. Somewhat comedic on their own, irritating in small groups and only dangerous in numbers, the game doesn't even count them as enemies for the purposes of plot advancement (in Reach, for instance, dialogue triggered by killing all the enemies in the area will be audible even if grunts are still there). Then you kill their leader, and half of them flee, whilst the other half activate two plasma grenades in their hands and suicide bomb you.

Remember When You Blew Up a Sun?: Or in the case of Admiral Cole, remember when you turned a gas giant into a sun and then it wiped out a hundreds-stong Covenant armada in a giant supernova? As a real-life Out-of-Universe inversion of the trope, there is a painting inside an ONI base in Australia called Admiral Cole's Last Stand, described in Halo: First Strike. The book was published nearly five years prior to Halo Evolutions, but in-universe, it was ten years before the end of the war.

Gravity Barrier: Notoriously overused in the second game, where falling only a few meters in the wrong place is fatal. Hell, on the last level of Halo 2, if you go to the bottom (during the final fight) and even CROUCH, you'll die.

Where's My Gun?: For being a cybernetic super soldier, the Master Chief seems to never have an available weapon on hand whenever trouble starts at the beginning of most of his games. He usually gets one within about five minutes of the player being handed control, but still, hasn't anyone thought to have at least a set of emergency pistols in the cryo rooms?

Necessary Drawback
 Halo (Franchise) / int_1c0d4155
comment
Necessary Drawback: The Spartan I training program was a mixture of Training from Hell and chemical enhancements but didn't result in a significant battlefield improvement. The Spartan II's had Training from Hell, chemical enhancements, cybernetic augmentation, and a custom-built Powered Armor but because of the high risk of deformities and death from the implants (low "graduation" numbers) it was deemed to not be cost efficient. Spartan III's (the subjects of Halo: Reach) were a balance between the previous programs to get higher numbers of Super Soldiers that could affect the tide of battle.

On the other hand, co-op mode usually makes the battle against Regret into a Curbstomp Battle that lasts all of very quick. One guy on door duty and the other on face-punching. If you both have a heavy weapon (and you should, as they come by the dozens in the area), it usually breezes past, except on Legendary.

Law of Chromatic Superiority
 Halo (Franchise) / int_1f7b2d59
comment
Law of Chromatic Superiority: Following in the tradition of Bungie's Marathon and Oni, enemies in Halo are color coded to denote rank; orange or blue for rookies, red for veterans, black for spec ops, and silver or gold for the super-tough Boss in Mook Clothing types. This is somewhat subverted by the Brutes in Halo 3... of the dozen or so Brute variants, 6 are all armored in almost the exact same shade of blue (with only a very minor variance in shade to denote different ranks). That blue-armored Brute with the horned helmet could be either a low-level Brute Captain Minor, an extra-hard Brute Captain Ultra, or a Brute Bodyguard, and you have absolutely no way of knowing exactly which unless you've got an HD TV, are really good at telling the difference between very close off-shades of blue, and for some reason he's standing still long enough for you to examine his armor. Reach subverts it again. The old ranks are the same, but the new highest ranks...cycle back to red.

Chief Petty Officer Mendez's own cigar chomping in the books probably counts, too.

Crapsack World: "Welcome to the galaxy, mankind! Incidentally, our religion has decreed you to be a race of demons and we're going to genocide you now, no offense or anything. Oh, and don't mind the Gravemind over there, it hardly ever Mind Rapes anyone." Oh by the way, think that before the Covies and Flood, it was nice? Nope! You live in a semi-authoritarian government with rebellion just about everywhere in the outer and inner colonies, and both sides are willing to use nukes should it be effective. The Covenant sucks too. Imagine being a Unggoy (Grunt), the frontline fodder destined to be the first to have their face booted in by the Chief so the Sangheili (Elites) and Jiralhanae (Brutes) might have a slightly easier time with him, all because that's your caste in the religion you were forced into (a religion built on a false pretense, no less). However, things have a chance to improve significantly now that the Prophets have been overthrown and the war is finally over. But first, everyone will need to defeat a whole smorgasbord of new foes, ranging from a resurgent Insurrection and Covenant splinter groups, to brigands and slavers, to ONI becoming a dictatorial shadow government, to (last but not least) Forerunner machines seeking to destroy/conquer everyone else in the galaxy.

Ironic Name: Most of the Prophets' titles are hypocritical in some way: The Prophet of Truth is in charge of spreading the lies of the Scam Religion. He at least knows it, and took the name on purpose to remind himself of the truths he had to keep secret. The Prophet of Mercy is a bloodthirsty zealot. The Prophet of Regret was never really shown regretting anything in his life. The Prophet of Temperance was guilty of repeated sexual misconduct. The Prophet of Inner Conviction is full of self-doubt and humorously berates himself for this.

Extremely Short Timespan: Halo: Reach begins on July 24th, 2552. In Halo 3, the last battle is on December 11, 2552, with the war officially ending on March 3rd, 2553. The first five first-person-shooter games in the series take place during those five months. Additionally, Halo 4 takes place over the course of a few days, as does Halo 5. The Lower-Deck Episode nature of Halo 3: ODST means its timeframe is less than 24 hours.

Beauty Equals Goodness: Just how bestial certain races such as the Elites appear often varies from game to game, seemingly dependent on whether they are villains in that particular one or not. In Halo 3, where the Elites are on your side, they have smoother features, while in Halo 4 and Halo Wars, where they play a solely antagonistic role, they are far more monstrous, looking closer to orcs. Averted in Halo 5, where both allied and enemy Elites and Grunts look physically alike.

Faster-Than-Light Travel
 Halo (Franchise) / int_2af7961
comment
Faster-Than-Light Travel: slipstream space, which is more-or-less shortcutting through another dimension. One of the reasons for Covenant space superiority was their greater ability to emerge from slipspace at pinpoint locations, whereas UNSC exit points might be inaccurate by as many as 100,000 kilometers. Not only was the location more accurate, so was the timeframe. Travel time between stars didn't remain constant, and UNSC ships that departed at roughly the same time could arrive at their destination hours or even days apart, reason of which was not clear to the scientists but attributed to "eddies" in slipstream currents.

Artifact Title
 Halo (Franchise) / int_2b7d29e1
comment
Artifact Title: Several of the games and most of the Expanded Universe don't actually feature the Halos. A Halo installation is present in Reach, but only in multiplayer and the Shot-for-Shot Remake of the first game's opening shown at the end. In 4 and 5's campaigns, a Halo only shows up briefly in the former, and the latter features zero Halos until the very last scene of the Legendary ending. The animated film of The Fall of Reach doesn't feature the fall of Reach- while it is an adaptation of the book of the same title, it omits the final act which covers the eponymous battle. The Master Chief Collection was originally a collection of all the Halo games that featured Master Chief as a main character. However, 343 later added Halo 3: ODST and Halo: Reach to the collection, which are side stories and don't feature Chief as a player character.

Autobots, Rock Out!
 Halo (Franchise) / int_2d395ee9
comment
Autobots, Rock Out!: It has the literal Rock Anthem for Saving the World that would play during more intense parts of the game. And Ominous Latin Chanting aplenty. In the second game, an instrumental version of "Blow Me Away" plays when the Master Chief enters the Mausoleum of the Arbiter, where the Enemy Civil War is at its most epic. Cue the urge to kick ass and Chew Bubblegum. Cortana even tells you it'd be better to sit this one out and wait for the enemies to kill each other. But with this music it's just impossible to do. And not to mention that the second and third games had Steve Vai shredding over the more intense themes. The Mjolnir Mix of the main theme yet. And then ODST pretty much blows everything that has come before away with a little thing called Air Traffic Control: imagine that playing while fighting against hordes of Covenant air support hundreds of feet in the air on the edge of a skyscraper.

Ax-Crazy: Kinsler, the New Mombasa police commissioner featured in Sadie's Story, is a rephrehensible jackass, who is willing to sacrifice the safety of the citizens in his bid for payback as the city falls apart. According to his profile, Noble Team member Emile-239 seem to fit this rather well, apparently so brutal that his superiors are reluctant to field him against anything but aliens, for fear of his brutality giving the media real "excess" to comment on. In at least one section of the game, we're told "He says he wants to win the war, but he really just wants the enemy to die." The Arbiter from Halo Wars. The guy unsheathed his Energy Swords while speaking to the Prophet of Regret, an act which is a complete violation of both Covenant doctrine*Weapons are never to be drawn in the presence of a Prophet and Sangheili culture**Any weapon drawn must shed blood before being put away. The only reason he wasn't killed on the spot was the fact that 'Moramee wouldn't hesitate to use his swords on the Honor Guards.

Glass Cannon: The Reach version of the Scorpion. Its cannon will make mulch out of any vehicle with one hit and its large damage radius means that you have to miss by a fair margin to not kill someone you're shooting at. Downside? An enemy with just his grenade can kill it in an instant while boarding. With the addition of Armor abilities like Sprint, Evade, Jetpacks, the Plasma pistols charged EMP make getting boarded a very common occurrence. Reach's Revenant is another example. It's powerful but leaves its operators exposed.

Stuff Blowing Up: The games love their random explosions. Vehicles blow up, random types of scenery blow up, disposable equipment blows up, rocket launchers, fuel rod guns, wraith mortars, brute shots, not to mention that grenades dropped by enemies also explode if anything blows up near them, often resulting in sudden chain reactions in an area where you've just killed a bunch of enemies. Whenever you die, expect a bunch of random things to explode all around you for no reason.

Shotgun Wedding: Admiral Cole, twice.

His second wife, Lyrra, is also pregnant when they get married which is too bad because she turns out to be a high-level Insurrection operative and the captain of the frigate that Cole has been hunting for years.

Eccentric A.I.: UNSC Smart A.I.s suffer from "Rampancy" after seven years of operation: their neural networks overload as they steadily "think themselves to death", leading to emotional instability and erratic behaviour. This befalls Cortana in Halo 4. 343 Guilty Spark is the Monitor of Installation 04 who's gone more than a little loopy after being left by himself for tens of thousands of years. He's in the habit of babbling nonsensically to himself, and encourages the Master Chief to fire the Halo ring, even though this would wipe out all life in the galaxy, with no way of restoring it this time. Later, near the end of Halo 3, he fully snaps when Cortana proposes to fire and destroy Installation 04's replacement to take out the Flood, killing Sergeant Johnson and forcing Chief to destroy the Monitor.

Not the Fall That Kills You…: The first game has falling damage. In the latter two games, which lack falling damage, you still die instantly after falling a certain height (determined by a "fall timer") or through one of the anti-shortcut invsible death barriers. This contradicts the cutscenes in Halo 2 and 3 where MC falls from orbit, or at least the stratosphere.

Magnetic Weapons
 Halo (Franchise) / int_38449aae
comment
Magnetic Weapons: You've got the M99 Stanchion, a coilgun sniper rifle that fires a .21-caliber round at 15 km/sec, capable of reducing anyone the round hits to Ludicrous Gibs from over 4 kilometers out. Originally expanded universe only, until Halo Wars 2. You've the ARC-920 Railgun for infantry, which is powerful and accurate against enemies but poor against vehicles. Essentially a weaker Spartan Laser with no zoom (until 5). You've got the M68/M555 Gauss Cannon, mounted as turrets and on some Warthogs, firing a 25 by 130 mm slug at around 13.5 km/sec, useful for punching through tanks (or one-shotting infantry). Then you've got the Magnetic Accelerator Cannon (MAC), the main weapon on UNSC ships. The standard one on a frigate or destroyer fires a round ranging from "several tons" (per Warfleet) to 600 tons (per a round seen in First Strike) at speeds ranging from "supersonic" i.e. <1.7 km/s (per the same scene in First Strike) to ~5 km/s (most visual depictions, including The Fall of Reach: The Animated Series, Halo 2, and Halo Reach) to 18 km/s (Conversations From The Universe). Packing triple digit tons to low kilotons of kinetic energy, it is capable of taking out the shields of a much larger Covenant destroyer or battlecruiser in just one or two hits,note This happens multiple times in The Fall of Reach, with one of the clearer scenes having three MAC shots at Sigma Octanus IV gut a mile-long Covenant destroyer that had explicitly been undamaged up to that point: the first two knock out the shields and the third annihilates the ship. Keyes later states in the same book that it takes "one, maybe two" MAC rounds in general to annihilate most shields. and it's the only weapon on UNSC ships that really makes them competitive with the Covenant besides their scant (and interceptable) nukes. The downside is a long charge time: the reactors of a UNSC ships only output "gigawatts" (per First Strike), and there are only a few reactors per ship. As a result it takes from a little over thirty secondsnote In The Fall of Reach, the UNSC ships at the Battle of Sigma Octanus IV fire their rounds, charge all the 22 seconds it takes for the enemy's retaliatory fire to arrive, keep charging for an undisclosed extra period, and then Hikowa informs Keyes that they'll be ready in 3 more seconds. The dialogue exchanged in between these two events alone should have taken over five seconds to be spoken. to a dozen minutesnote At the beginning of the same battle, Hikowa says that the MAC guns are charging at a rate of 2% per minute, for both guns, while the ship was explicitly operating at 50% of its normal power output. depending on how much energy they choose to divert from other systems. Obtaining the fastest charge rate (which is still fairly slow) renders UNSC ships static targets.note In fact, Keyes compares them to 18th century line infantry in the aforementioned battle, and notes that he's not sure whether the admiral's tactic of having all his ships do this is brilliant or suicidal. Lastly you've got the Super MAC, found only as part of space stations in geosynchronous orbit over key worlds. The ones around Earth fire slugs weighing hundreds of tonsnote You actually see the rounds being loaded in the first combat level of Halo 2. They're cylindrical shapes roughly 10 meters in length and 1.5 meters in diameter, which at tungsten density would put them at 341 tons. at "several kilometers per second" (per Warfleet, and as seen in Halo 2: Anniversary's terminals), and unlike the guns mounted on ships, their groundside reactors are powerful enough to let them fire once every few seconds (as seen in Halo 2). Then there are the unique ones around Reach: suckers fire a 3000-ton slug at "point four-tenths" of light speed; they're strong enough to punch clean through virtually any Covenant vessel (even capital ones), shields and all, blow a big-ass hole through the ship (often obliterating it into a million fragments), and keep going with enough force left over to punch through (or at least deal extreme damage to) another ship.

Our Clones Are Different: A process called "flash cloning" can be used to replicate human tissue at a dramatically increased rate of growth, normally used for replacing lost or damaged organs. It is possible to clone an entire human, but incurable physiological problems caused by the accelerated growth mean that the resulting clone's life expectancy is measured in weeks, with few exceptions. Human cloning is, as a result, illegal and deeply unethical, but that didn't stop Catherine Halsey and ONI from creating flash-clone replacements for the 75 children they abducted as part of the SPARTAN-II Program.

Further deconstructed in Ghosts of Onyx. The SPARTAN III's are prepubescent Laser Guided Tykebombs assembled from thousands of orphans of Earth's lost colonies, and trained to assault and hopefully destroy Covenant installations en masse as mostly cannon fodder to slow the Covenant's advance. The first chapter of said novel details the carnage of one such mission, one that leaves only two survivors out of hundreds, and renders one of them forever mute from Post Traumatic Stress. The worst part? If it hadn't been done, humanity wouldn't have lasted long enough to become nearly extinct in Halo 3.

Aliens Are Bastards
 Halo (Franchise) / int_3a90dc63
comment
Aliens Are Bastards: Zigzagged with most factions. The Covenant. Though many of its members are shown to be absolute bastards to both humanity and each other, most of the Covenant isn't evil, they're just being manipulated, coerced, or enslaved by the Prophets (and even they're not completely evil). Even the Brutes, the most brutal and violent of the races, have some decent people. The Flood are evil, but there's an implication that the Gravemind genuinely thinks that it's doing the right thing by assimilating everyone (though The Forerunner Saga implies its true purpose may be far more malevolent). By the time of the second game, a combination of the Prophets' backstabbing of the Elites and revelations about the Halos' true purpose causes many members of the Covenant to rebel and join with humanity. Even Jul 'Mdama's Covenant remnant, which still seek to wipe out humanity, somewhat avoids this; they're motivated by a mix of misguided religiosity and genuine concern about humanity's intent towards the rest of the galaxy, with the organization's lesser members likely coerced into the whole venture. The Banished are shown to be much more egalitarian than the original Covenant, with people of any species able to climb the ranks if they prove themselves, and Atriox was even willing to permit humans to join the Banished, a first for any of the series' villains (though very, very few humans seem to have done so). And their motivation is a simple case of Never Be Hurt Again. They're harsh and brutal, but they're motivated by fear of being oppressed rather than lust for power.

Undead Counterpart

comment
Undead Counterpart: The Flood (basically space zombies) develop distinct forms based on the lifeforms they infect, and after Halo 1 they infect enemies to get Sangheili combat forms (which tend to have energy shields and plasma swords) and Brute combat forms (the strongest combat variant). Some species lack Flood forms, due to either being too weak to be useful beyond providing bio-mass (Grunts and Jackals), or being too alien in biology to properly infect (Hunters and Engineers). Though flood-infected humans are in almost every Halo game, normal people don't show up as enemies in most Halo games. Halo Wars is an exception and has both human enemies and flood-infected human enemies, fulfilling this trope.

In Halo: Evolutions, Admiral Cole fires a hundred nuclear warheads into the gas giant Viperidae's core, turning it into a momentary star and decimating the Covenant fleet. Also a case of No Kill like Overkill and a possible Heroic Sacrifice.

Sgt. Forge, who fights The Arbiter with a knife and wins. According to the Halo Wars timeline, he also gets into a brawl with one of the Spirit of Fire's Spartan-IIs and appears to have held his own. One of the same Spartan-IIs who were able to defeat multiple Helljumpers unarmored. At the tender age of 14.

All There in the Stinger: All of the first three games: Halo: Combat Evolved's stinger shows Guilty Spark escaping Halo's destruction and fleeing into space. Halo 2's stinger shows The Gravemind approaching Cortana, who agrees to answer its questions. Halo 3 ends with everyone believing that Master Chief is dead, but the stinger reveals that he and Cortana survived in the aft end of the frigate Forward Unto Dawn, and ends with his going back into stasis. Then the ship's hulk is seen drifting towards a planet.

Bittersweet Ending: To the original trilogy; both humanity and the Covenant races have been badly mauled by their war, with most human colonies destroyed and billions of its people dead. Earth's defenses were badly mauled and many of its cities razed. The upside is that the war ends with the Covenant races freed from the Prophets' rule and humanity avoiding extinction and making peace with their former adversaries (with hope for future friendship), not to mention our heroes stopping the Flood from retaking the galaxy. The Chief and Cortana are presumed dead, but are actually floating in space in the back half of the Dawn, with no way to get home.

Flunky Boss: Regret and Tartarus. Tartarus isn't so bad as the Brute reinforcements only show up at two or three pre-scripted points in the fight, and every time they do you usually get a fresh squad of Elite reinforcements to help you. Regret, on the other hand, can reach That One Boss status due to the endless waves of respawning Honor Guard Elites and Grunts coupled with the lack of good cover and necessity to charge right out into the open to melee damage the boss. On the other hand, co-op mode usually makes the battle against Regret into a Curbstomp Battle that lasts all of very quick. One guy on door duty and the other on face-punching. If you both have a heavy weapon (and you should, as they come by the dozens in the area), it usually breezes past, except on Legendary.

With the exception of the Halo Wars sub-series, all terrestrial/atmosphere-based UNSC vehicles in the games are named after animals, while Covenant vehicles are named after supernatural creatures. However, space-capable human aircraft tend to be named after types of swords. And even Halo Wars only broke the pattern with the Shout-Out Cyclops and the appropriately named Gremlin.

In particular, the original game had 343 Guilty Spark flying through space, showing he survived the Halo's destruction, and Halo 5 had one of Cortana's Guardians coming across an as-yet-undiscovered Halo ring.

Game Changer: In Halo: Combat Evolved, the war on the ring progresses in a military fashion, with humans beating back the Covenant. Then the ring turns out to have been carrying an Eldritch Abomination, which is set free and proceeds to start infecting anyone it encounters. A later game changer is when the ring turns out to be a super weapon, which its insane curator is trying to fire to contain the infection. A meta one in Halo 2. The game opens with Master Chief's bold defense of Earth. But the Covenant carrier flees and the second half of the game turns into a political plot playing as the Arbiter. 2 also plays it straight with the Covenant falling into an Enemy Civil War (and inadvertently providing humanity with its best chance of survival), and the Flood escaping from Delta Halo and preparing to invade the rest of the galaxy. Halo 3: Master Chief and the UNSC break a hole through the Covenant's defenses so that they can deactivate the Ark artifact on Earth. The artifact turns out to not be the Ark, but a portal leading to the Ark, which is outside the Milky Way galaxy. Halo 4: Master Chief and Cortana hurry to activate a satellite so that they can escape the abandoned planet they're trapped on and be rescued. The satellite turns out to be actually the containment pod of the Ur-Didact, who breaks free and resumes his genocidal campaign on humanity. Halo: Reach: Dr. Halsey explains to NOBLE Team that on its current course humanity is doomed to extinction. The only solution lays in the Forerunner information she and Cortana have managed to decipher, explicitly calling it a Game Changer. This info reveals the location of Halo, and leads into the main trilogy, where the Covenant's resolve was broken when the Halo's true purpose was revealed. Inverted with the previous events of the campaign. No matter what the UNSC tries to stop the Covenant on Reach, some new complication is revealed that just escalates the conflict. Destroyed their corvette attacking their base? Covenant Zealots still got the data they were looking for. Infiltrated their radar dark zone? It turns out to be hiding an entire Covenant army. Destroyed their spire bases? Those turn out to be cloaking a Covenant super carrier. Destroy the super carrier? A fleet of hundreds more ships immediately arrive to take its place. In Halo 5: Guardians, we find out that the activation of the Guardians is part of Cortana's plans to conquer the galaxy with an army of Forerunner robots and rogue AIs.

Halo: The Master Chief Collection (2014): An Xbox One Compilation Rerelease of the first four main series Halo games (plus the "Anniversary" remakes of Combat Evolved and 2) that has all their multiplayer modes with online play added (including a new multiplayer mode for Halo 2's anniversary update), plus several more bonus features. A later update also adds the campaign from Halo 3: ODST. In 2019, Microsoft announced that the collection would be released on PC that year, with a staggered release for each game in the collection (in internal chronological order), starting with the newly remastered version of Halo: Reach. In 2020, the game is set to be released on the Xbox Series X|S one week after the launch of both consoles.

A big one is offhandedly mentioning that humanity and the Forerunners were at war at one point, after which the Forerunner victors de-evolved us and confined us to earth. About every time we learn something new about the Precursors, it turns out to be this.

Hit-and-Run Tactics: You'll need these for dealing with Halo 2's final boss, even on Easy. Just take a look at what happens to your allies and decide if you want to repeat their performance. In Halo in general, it's best to use your rechargeable shields to pick off enemies one by one, retreating when under too much fire. This allows you to wittle down their numbers slowly rather than taking the whole squad on at once. Particularly important in the first Halo and Reach, where your health doesn't recharge like your shields do.

 Halo (Franchise) / int_4f4372e9
comment
Early-Installment Weirdness: The Cortana Letters are this for the franchise as a whole, to the point that only the parts directly referenced by material considered canon are themselves canon. (For example, those parts directly referenced by Cortana in the announcement trailer for Halo 3.) There's some interesting things to note about the letters. Overall, the letters imply that Halo had a much closer link to the Marathon series. Not only does Cortana act a lot like the snarky AI Durandal from that series, he might even be the "he" Cortana refers to when saying "I am still not sure what he ever saw in you," given that Durandal was known for his disdainful-yet-protective attitude toward humanity once he reached the metastable phase of Rampancy. In fact, in December 2021 Bungie alums Martin O'Donnell and Paul Russell confirmed that Halo was originally set within Marathon's universe, and it was going to be a plot point that Cortana's base code is based on Durandal's. Which would have made her name a Meaningful Name, given the sword that is her namesake is said to bear the inscription "My name is Cortana, of the same steel and temper as Joyeuse and Durendal." The W'rkncacnter (AKA the Dreaming God of Pathways into Darkness) is referenced as "a Demon folded in black clouds" as well as creatures inching along the fiery tracks of a black sun, who also guard something Cortana wants—much to the ire of the Covenant. In the Letters, Cortana doesn't appear to have been the shipboard AI for the Pillar of Autumn. Rather, some "BW - AI Class III" that Cortana refers to as "the family hound" appears to fill that role, although it's left ambiguous because its messages are referred to as coming from "BW-AI aboard(?) PoA." Speaking of the Master Chief, Cortana seems to have a much less amicable relationship with him in the Letters. After the Pillar of Autumn's shipboard AI corners her, it appears she gets confined to the Chief's systems not unlike how she's often uploaded into his armor in canon. However, Cortana refers to the Chief as a "hybrid war machine" "complicated by such useless clutter as a conscience," implying it's not so much his armor she's been forced to inhabit but his mind. That brings to mind Marathon's MJOLNIR Mk. IV Battleroids. (And, recall that in Combat Evolved, the Chief wore the Mark IV version of the MJOLNIR armor ... ) Master Chief having originally been intended to be a cyborg rather than super soldier seems to be corroborated by the earliest trailers for Halo, before he acquired his trademark voice actor—in which he sounds robotic and emotionless, complete with a mechanical echo. The Cortana Letters have some parallels to the Halo 2 ARG I Love Bees, particularly in how Cortana enjoyed trolling Marathon fans with her means of contacting them (including from a NASA JPL e-mail address!) much like how The Operator/Durga/Melissa made free use of anything connected to a network. Like her, Cortana is overtly disdainful of computer technology from the late 90's/early 00's—Cortana called it (among other things) an "antiquated excuse for a network," while Melissa considered it "little better than an abacus."

Beneath the Mask: Every AI that is still hiding their rampancy, with Cortana herself gradually falling into this. Additionally, the Prophet of Truth's calm mask comes off in Halo 3, although his newfound zealotry indicates that he might, to some degree, have actually become the mask.

Jorge-052, Noble Teams Heavy weapons specialist carries a massive Heavy Machine gun which would require an entire crew of regular humans to man and would probably be cumbersome in the hands of even the other Spartans. Jorge however doesn't seem to be slowed down by it in the slightest.

Broad Strokes: Initially, the games themselves were internally consistent, but the Expanded Universe has done a great deal of rearrangement of facts and details over the years. Nowadays, even the games aren't completely consistent with each other. Current official canon policy is that when new material and old material conflict, the new material wins unless otherwise stated.

comment
The UNSC is a totalitarian military dictatorship that runs Child Super-Soldier programs that kill the bulk of their recruits, gives cloned kids cancer in order to cover it up, backstabs their own allies in order to maintain the Balance of Power, nukes civilian populations off the face of the planet in response to rebellion, etc. Its semi-shadow government, the Office of Naval Intelligence, veers much closer to the black side of things, with its willingness to do things even the rest of the UNSC doesn't approve of. It borders on Stupid Evil when they nearly start a war between the Elites and humanity after 4 by supporting the Servants of Abiding Truth against the Swords of Sanghelios, the latter of which is led by the Arbiter, who saved humanity from extinction. The UNSC would be the Big Bad in most other works, but against the Covenant and Flood, they come off as the lesser of the evils. Forward Unto Dawn fully reveals the level of the UNSC's indoctrination of its own citizens, as well. They named their top military academy after a Roman general who committed suicide because his emperor ordered him to, purely because said emperor saw him as a threat to Imperial power. The UNSC glorifies said general as an example of what all UNSC officers should be, and even makes the Final Speech that he used to justify his suicide the official motto of the academy. Additionally, Forward Unto Dawn confirms that the UNSC's population on Earth was largely not even aware of how the war was going in space, even as they were losing horribly and about to be invaded, indicating an absurd level of state censorship and information control.

Fantastic Racism
 Halo (Franchise) / int_57b80b45
comment
Fantastic Racism: All over the place; the Covenant in particular seems to have been deliberately designed so that each of its various species would be at each others' throats instead of the Prophets', with the hatreds lasting even after the collapse of the Covenant (the Elites and Brutes in particular still waging massively destructive conflicts against each other). The Forerunners themselves, despite their ideology of being galactic guardians, treated other species in ways that were overly paternalistic at best, such as suppressing their client species' native technological development and showing absolutely no mercy to anyone who challenged their rule. Additionally, the Human-Covenant War had plenty of racial hatred in it, even outside of the whole "kill all humans" thing, with the slurs to match. Indeed, even after the Elites turn against the Covenant and end up allying with humanity, there are still a lot of bad feelings on both sides, with ONI actively attempting to sabotage the Elite leader most favorably disposed to humanity, and various Elite-led groups who are still trying to finish what the Covenant started.However, a central theme of the Reclaimer Saga is the ability to, while not forgive or forget per se, ultimately end hostilities and even form alliances with people you'd otherwise detest, which fits the Librarian's plans for humanity to become galactic caretakers who would actually be worthy of the title. By the post-war period in Halo 4, we're seeing much more cooperation and tolerance than before. Spartan Ops mentions several ex-Covenant refugees have been granted asylum on Earth, a new generation of reasonably thriving worlds have mixed human and Covenant populations, and Escalation shows that the UNSC and the Arbiter's faction are still working quite closely together, with humanity even sending the Infinity to escort the latter during his peace negotiations with the Brutes (itself a step up from the absolute hatred his faction held for them five years earlier, despite the absolute failure of said negotiations). We further see this in action in Halo: Hunters in the Dark, where a joint Elite-human team saves the galaxy once again, and in Halo 5: Guardians, where the Arbiter and his Elites help Fireteam Osiris track down the Chief in exchange for their help in taking out the last of the Covenant on Sanghelios, with the two sides coming to mutually respect each other in both cases.

Charged Attack
 Halo (Franchise) / int_589e54d3
comment
Charged Attack: The Plasma Pistol, which doesn't do much more damage, but instantly drains the shields of Spartans and Elites, and temporarily disables vehicles The Needler also counts. It would be virtually useless, despite the homing feature of the needles, except for the fact that once a target has enough needles in them, they simultaneously explode. So the needler can be useful, assuming a player can get enough needles in an opponent to cause the explosion. Also, the Spartan Laser. Reach adds the Plasma Launcher, which charges to fire more grenades, as well as an artillery target painter. Halo 4 adds the Boltshot, a Prometheon pistol, which charges to fire a shotgun-like burst. And introduced in Halo 5: Guardians, the Plasma Caster, which charges to fire a single large grenade at a higher velocity, relative to an uncharged shot firing two grenades at a lower velocity. Additionally, a charged attack was added to the Incineration Cannon for a bigger shot with more Splash Damage.

Sighted Guns Are Low-Tech: Many human weapons have them, but only a handful of Covenant ones do. It's surprisingly averted with a few of the Forerunner weapons; for example, their two shotgun-esque guns, the Scattershot and Boltshot, both seem to have them. Averted in Halo 5, where virtually every weapon can activate a sight of some sort, even the Plasma Pistol (which has a very rudimentary holographic one).

Aliens in Cardiff
 Halo (Franchise) / int_5c446b43
comment
Aliens in Cardiff: When the Covenant attack Earth, little to no mention is given to them invading New York, Tokyo, L.A, or any of the other usual cities. They did hit Cleveland and the Kenyan city of New Mombasa, however, as they were looking for Forerunner relics there. Why waste time invading a city with no Forerunner artifacts? Let it burn, let it burn, let it burn... However, New Mombasa is treated as one of the most economically important cities on Earth (complete with its own space elevator), not nearly as obscure as Mombasa is today. Similarly, future Cleveland has become a prosperous resort city, though unlike the area around Mombasa, it doesn't actually have any Forerunner artifacts; Colonel Ackerson simply tricked the Covenant into thinking there was, so they wouldn't just destroy it from orbit, giving its residents (including his brother) a chance to escape.

Super Prototype: Inverted with the Arbiter armour, which has a cloaking system inferior to modern Elite armour. Master Chief and the Spartan-IIs are this compared to the IIIs and IVs, though in different ways; the IIs are more highly selected than both their successors, and have superior augmentations to the IVs and superior equipment to most IIIs. Averted with the true prototypes, the Spartan-Is of the ORION Project. Even the "successful" Is were nowhere near as powerful as the IIs, IIIs, and IVs, and many suffered severe side effects or even death. Sergeant Johnson is the only Spartan-I encountered officially in the games, and while certainly a badass who's survived at least fifty years of combat, he's certainly not quite as badass as any of the later Spartans.

Limited Loadout: Trope Codifier for the modern First-Person Shooter. Because of Halo, "two guns, plus some accessories" became incredibly popular. The exact amount of firepower has changed throughout the series, with duel wielding premiering in Halo 2, equipment and armor abilities debuting in Halo 3 and Halo: Reach respectively, and the amount of grenades available to the player always in flux from one title to the next. Later games have gone in the direction of paring things down, with Reach removing duel-wielding, and 5 replacing equipment and armor abilities with more general "Spartan abilities".

Badass Normal: This may be a franchise starring Super Soldiers, but normal humans do plenty of asskicking themselves. Sgt. Johnson seems to be this. But he's actually a Spartan-I. Marvin Mobuto: In the book The Flood, halfway through the Library, Master Chief is almost overwhelmed by the huge numbers of Flood as he fights his way to the Index Room. Then, he finds the corpse of Sgt .Mobuto, a very normal Marine who, in spite of his lack of Spartan training, energy shielding, and so on used by the Master Chief, still managed to get within a few rooms of retrieving the Index. What he did was so badass, the Master Chief himself says "I didn't know you, Sarge, but I sure as hell wish I had. You must have been one hard-core son of a bitch." Sgt. Forge, who fights The Arbiter with a knife and wins. According to the Halo Wars timeline, he also gets into a brawl with one of the Spirit of Fire's Spartan-IIs and appears to have held his own. One of the same Spartan-IIs who were able to defeat multiple Helljumpers unarmored. At the tender age of 14. Orbital Drop Shock Troopers (ODSTs) are the poster children for this trope in the entire franchise, being as a whole the most badass non-Spartan humans in the entire verse. The squad Alpha-Nine from ODST are particular exemplars, especially Gunnery Sergeant Edward "If he were any better, he'd be a Spartan" Buck. Sadie Endesha and Mike Branley from "Sadie's Story", in an Action Survivor kind of way.

Heroic Sacrifice
 Halo (Franchise) / int_6439de78
comment
Heroic Sacrifice: The correct procedure for a heroic sacrifice seems to be a fundamental a part of SPARTAN basic training. Most SPARTANs who die on-screen do so to destroy a vital enemy target or as part of a last ditch vanguard to allow an escape. It could even be said that this is their defined role within the UNSC prior to the end of the Human-Covenant War, due to their incredibly high skill being matched only by the overwhelming odds their missions regularly involve. Sergeant John Forge stays behind to detonate the Spirit of Fire's slipspace drive in Halo Wars. The Arbiter tries to do this early in Halo 2, until Tartarus rescues him at the last minute. Whoever holds the title is typically sent on suicide missions anyway, so it's to be expected. Spartan Kurt-051 does this in Ghosts of Onyx, setting off a FENRIS nuke to prevent the Covenant from accessing the Shield World. In Halo 3, CDR. Keyes almost sacrifices herself and Johnson to prevent activation of the rings, but Truth guns her down himself. In First Strike, Vice Admiral Danforth Whitcomb and LT. Haverson lure an entire Covenant fleet to the doomed Covenant station Unyielding Hierophant. When it explodes, it destroys almost five hundred vessels, achieving one of the greatest UNSC military victories in the war, and delaying the invasion of Earth. Thom-A293, best known for the Deliver Hope trailer, who saved Kat's life (and the entire mission) by delivering the tac-nuke to the Covenant ship himself. Noble Six, the protagonist of Halo: Reach, has to replace him afterwards. In Halo: Reach, Jorge has a sacrifice when he manually detonates a "slipspace bomb" to destroy a Covenant supercarrier. Carter has a sacrifice when he flies a Pelican into a Scarab to save Emile and Six. The player has a sacrifice when s/he stays behind on Reach to cover the Pillar of Autumn's escape, which s/he only has to do in the first place because Emile is killed just before attempting to do the same thing. Reach is basically made of Heroic Sacrifice. Averted in Halo 4 when Master Chief is wholly ready to detonate the nuke inside the Composer, an act which would definitely kill him, and would have, if the sacrifice wasn't made by Cortana instead.

Sacrificial Planet: Most of the story takes place in late 2552, after the Covenant destroyed the planet Reach during their war against humanity. The Covenant had already burned 800 human colonies in the twenty-seven years of war before, but Reach, being humanity's second most important military stronghold after Earth, is viewed to be the point-of-no-return, the point where humanity has been dealt a crippling blow and needs to land a killing strike on the Covenant right away before they destroy Earth. The Fall of Reach is described in the first Halo book and playable in the prequel Halo: Reach, where you are Doomed by Canon.

 Halo (Franchise) / int_68f6e811
comment
Made of Plasticine: A vehicular example is seen courtesy of the many starships in the series, especially the UNSC's vessels when confronted with the Covenant's plasma weapons. It is basically unheard of for a ship to come out of an engagement without being gutted within an inch of its life and/or requiring several months' stay in drydock to fix the myriad of meltdowns and decompressions. Apparently, all that armour and structure is like so much tissue paper. Averted for the Pillar of Autumn; even in-universe it was described as basically being a Lethal Joke Lightning Bruiser Cool Ship. It and its entire class were reputed as being Made of Iron, even if they sucked in the offensive department. The Covenant ships subvert this trope: while their shields are up, they are basically Made of Iron, and only MAC cannon rounds generally make a dent. Knock down the shields, though, and they can get blown apart with otherwise-useless Archer missiles. A more straight example comes from the descriptions of the effects of Covenant weaponry and Flood attacks on human UNSC Marines. And also averted for the Spartans — they repeatedly come back from injuries that would cripple or kill an ordinary human. Linda, in particular, came back to full fighting readiness after being clinically dead.

Meaningful Name

Meaningful Name / Ironic Nickname: The Prophet of Truch is a habitual liar and blackmailed the Prophet of Regret, The Prophet of Regret is impetuious and doesn't seem to regret his actions (except the ones the Prophet of Truth is blackmailing him for), and The Prophet of Mercy is completely merciless, to the point of psychopathy. According to Contact Harvest, Regret used to be the Vice Minister of Tranquility and was known for his confrontational attitude, and Truth got his later position after blackmailing the Prophet of Restraint over his illegitimate children. This sort of thing seems to be a Running Gag throughout the Halo universe. Truth at least is intentional. He chose it to remind himself of his own lies and hypocrisy. Lampshaded in Halo: Broken Circle by Mken 'Scre'ah'ben, known as the "Prophet of Inner Conviction" because of the purity he displayed in his youth. By the time the Covenant is established, he's already begun to have private doubts that the Halo Array is a means of divinity, thinking the texts he's read sound more like weapons, showing he lacks inner conviction. Unlike most Prophets, Mken is self-aware enough to recognize this and chastise himself for it. The name "John-117" also may have meaning; from biblical references (various passages in the Book of John or in Revelations with the numbers "1" and "7" could be read as relating to Halo's plot) to a Shout-Out to Demolition Man. It's also often pronounced one-seventeen, 1:17 is 77 seconds and 7 is Bungie's Arc Number.

Base on Wheels
 Halo (Franchise) / int_6c604f6d
comment
Base on Wheels: Both the UNSC and Covenant are known to utilize absolutely gigantic ground vehicles. For the Covenant side, theirs will cross into Humongous Mecha territory too. For the UNSC they have: The Elephant, the smallest Base on Wheels in Halo but nevertheless, still remains the largest drivable vehicle in Halo to date. The Elephant is a giant heavy troop transport/command center hybrid the size of a two-story building. Don't expect it to move any faster than a snail though. The Mammoth one-ups the Elephant by being twice the length, at nearly 70 meters long, the Mammoth, like the Elephant, is a mobile command and control firebase, but with the added benefit of also being a anti-ship weapons platform. For the Covenant they have: The Scarab, you know'em you love'em. Scarabs are giant quadrupedal mechs designed to act as heavy siege engines. Despite this, they have a dual-use purpose as Scarabs were originally civilian mining vehicles. Nonetheless, the Scarab can just as easily bore through UNSC armor just as easily as mountains. The Super Scarab is a even bigger version of the regular Scarab that is only encountered in one mission in Halo Wars. They are rarely seen and are only utilized to mine the more sacred of Forerunner artefacts. The Draugr is a Covenant Bolo. No serious. These land battleships are one of the most powerful Covenant ground vehicles. At 168 meters long, 100 meters wide and 58 meters tall with a mass of 71,000 metric tons, these monsters are armed with five focus cannons and use Scarabs as support vehicles. Yes, it is a Base on Wheels that uses other Base on Wheels as support platforms. The Harvester is the king of all Covenant walkers save for the Kraken. These gigantic mining platforms is a giant walking landship may be armed with just one ultra-heavy focus cannon, but it is 219 meters long, 148 meters wide, 133 meters tall and weigh at around 211,660 metric tons. To give you some perspective, this is twice the weight of the real world Gerald R. Ford supercarriers. The Kraken is the largest Covenant ground vehicle ever known. These are seige engines that are big enough that even mountain-sized boulders can be thrown like frisbees. They are 527 meters tall, 177 meters long, 179 meters wide and weigh at a colossal 800,000 metric tons.

You Can't Kill What's Already Dead: Subverted. Flood Combat Forms can be eliminated with a precise shot to the Infection Form "piloting" the body. When this happens, the Combat Form will fall over as if dead, and a gaping hole will be seen where the Infection Form once was. However, from Halo 2 onward, another Infection Form may wander over at any time and take control of the Combat Form again, with the Combat Form having the same amount of health it had before it was "killed." This means that in order to prevent dead Combat Forms from coming back to life in this manner, the player either has to either kill every Infection Form in the room or manually dismember each Combat Form killed by a "headshot" after it hits the ground.

Big Bad Ensemble: In the first trilogy, your top enemies are: The Covenant, lead by the Prophet of Truth, is a religious, genocidal coalition of Scary Dogmatic Aliens bent on (unknowingly) causing intergalactic extermination by activating the Halo Array, as a means to "begin the Great Journey". The Flood are a parasitic and mutated virus, represented and led by the Gravemind, that seek to literally feed on every organic species in the universe. The Sentinels, spearheaded by their Monitors (i.e. 343 Guilty Spark), were created to contain the Flood, as well as anyone else who presented a potential threat to the Halo rings (which was often interpreted to include those who simply wanted to prevent the firing of the rings). In the second trilogy, there is still the Covenant, along with the ones who built the Sentinels (Forerunners) and a rebellion of AI (Created).

Gameplay Ally Immortality: Averted in the 1st game, by simply ignoring it if a plot-critical character (ie. Sgt. Johnson) should happen to buy the farm. Played straight in all other members of the trilogy, as well as in ODST and Reach. In the first game, if you look closely, Johnson is in every level with human NPCs. Combine that with the cutscene in the Library, he IS immortal. He just never gets up when you see him "die". Only when you get the next checkpoint does his dead body disappear. Zigzagged in Halo 5: Guardians with members of Blue Team and Fireteam Osiris as NPCs still being treated as Player Characters, where they can be downed, needing to be revived before bleeding out, and by then respawning only after the area is clear of a fight.

George Lucas Altered Version: The Master Chief Collection was originally just a compilation of mainline games to that point as an Updated Re-release with newer graphics and a few superficial changes to the levels themselves. Once all games were included and a seasonal content model was implemented, the collection started offering brand new gametypes and character customization options to unlock that were not available in the original release. This turned out to be very well respected by the community, as no one expected them to give such attention to the older games like this.

Cosmetically Different Sides: Elites and Spartans (though quite possible on the same team) are the same aside from visually in the multiplayer. Reach is supposed to be avert the trope, making the Elites take more damage and have an ability to roll, while the Spartans have the ability to sprint and are smaller targets. Although the different body shapes between humans and Sangheili mean that scoring headshots on each is different, and there are some other profile-related differences.

Challenge Run: In most games, you have the option to turn on various "skulls" for the campaign mode (in some games you have to find them before you can use them, in some games not) which affect the gameplay in various ways. There's one that causes your shields to recharge only upon meleeing an enemy, one that causes every enemy's health to double, one that removes your entire first-person HUD and arms, leaving you with no way to tell what gun you're currently using unless you fire it or tediously look at its shape with your own shadow, one that causes you to restart the whole level if you die on solo or revert to the last checkpoint if ANY player dies on co-op, and those are just a few. Some skulls are actually helpful (though those are mostly just in Halo 2 and Combat Evolved Anniversary), but in most cases, they greatly increase the games' difficulty in many unique ways.

The Faceless
 Halo (Franchise) / int_7abba202
comment
The Faceless: Master Chief again. Same goes for the Rookie and Noble Six. In The Flood, the Chief is described as having graying hair, and ghostly skin from wearing the armor all the time. Somehow, knowing that only makes him look more badass in-game. A face is visible under just the right conditions in Halo 3. But it's actually the face of Marcus Lehto, the Creative Art Director at Bungie. The inclusion of his face in the Halo 3 beta was an easter egg, as he's known for many within the series. Ultimately, the only image that Bungie ever released of an adult Master Chief without a helmet was their 2010 Christmas Card... which shows the back of his head. However, we do have several images of John's face as a child and teen; the comic book and animated adaptations of The Fall of Reach, the Halo 3 trailer Starry Night (although his face is darkened by the night), and Halo 4's "Scanned" trailer, where the Chief is shown as a child and as a teenager up until the point when he first dons his MJOLNIR armor. The opening sequence of Halo 4 shows the young Master Chief, presumably shortly after he "joined" the SPARTAN training. The freckled boy is sitting on his bed, arms wrapped around his knees, but you can still make out that the front of his shirt reads JOHN. The Legendary ending actually goes so far as to show the area around his eyes.

Colonized Solar System: Taking place in the 26th century, humanity has had plenty of time to branch out into the rest of our home system: Mercury is used for antimatter production and solar research; Venus is the site of a failed terraforming project (no surprise there); the Moon has a sizable population and an OCS Academy; Mars has been terraformed, heavily populated, and is one of the UNSC's main industrial centers; Jupiter's moons have colonies and bases while the planet itself is mined for gases; Saturn is mostly a tourist trap; Uranus is a mostly-ignored backwater; Neptune is used as a gravity slingshot; and Pluto has an early-warning detection station keeping an eye out for extrasolar activity.

El Cid Ploy: Given the huge morale boost the Spartans provided to the UNSC, ONI developed the "Spartans never die" policy. In the event one is actually killed, which happened with increasing frequency as the war with the Covenant dragged on, they were listed in official records as "Wounded in Action" or "Missing in Action" to preserve the myth of Spartan invincibility.

In the sequels, they become a Boss in Mook Clothing. They can no longer be one-hit killed except with the sniper rifle, their armor completely deflects projectiles instead of simply reducing their damage (so you can only hurt them by shooting their weak point), their weak points are much harder to target (nearly impossible to get behind them now), and both their cannon and melee attacks can One-Hit Kill you.

Villain Decay
 Halo (Franchise) / int_7bb844ec

Villain Decay: The Brutes get weaker in every game. In Halo 2 they had no shields, yet could shrug off tons of damage and attempting to melee them was pretty much suicide. In Halo 3 they have shields, yet once those are gone they are pretty weak (outside of Elite Mook versions) and they can be beat around in melee combat. In Reach they rarely have shields yet aren't much tougher than unshielded Halo 3 Brutes (and can be beat around just as easily), and even the elite versions go down in a few headshots (bar the few that do have shields). This is an intentional move on Bungie's part, since they believed it would have been just too painful to fight a Brute that had a shield on top of the high health they had in Halo 2, but it also coincides with them having less influence on the plot; they start off very important, but by Reach are just another type of Mook.

Earth-Shattering Kaboom

comment
Earth-Shattering Kaboom: What happened to Alpha Halo. And Alpha Halo's replacement. And the titular planet in Ghosts of Onyx: after nuclear warheads were set off in its core, it was revealed to be made of trillions of Sentinels. Really, Forerunner worlds have a thing for getting blown up directly, or indirectly, by Spartans. Also from Ghost Of Onyx, the so-called "Nova Bomb" (also a Chekhov's Gun from First Strike). The bomb was accidentally set off aboard an Elite ship orbiting one of their outpost planets, and it proceeded to instantly vaporize much (if not most) of an Elite fleet of hundreds of ships (which had been preparing to totally crush the Brutes), shatter a nearby moon to pieces, and vaporize an entire quarter of the planet below it (also producing winds that flattened entire cities and formed immense tidal waves). The weapon in question was perhaps the size of a mini van... and Halopedia's calculations put the thing's likely megaton yield at 1.2 billion. In Halo Wars, the crew of the UNSC Spirit of Fire destroys a Forerunner Shield World by overloading the ship's fusion core and sending it into the planet's artificial sun. The result is a Death Star-like explosion. In Halo: Evolutions, Admiral Cole fires a hundred nuclear warheads into the gas giant Viperidae's core, turning it into a momentary star and decimating the Covenant fleet. Also a case of No Kill like Overkill and a possible Heroic Sacrifice. At the end of Spartan Ops, Jul 'Mdama sends Requiem into its sun, which then goes supernova as part of its Flood containment protocols. While the glassing of the most human colonies doesn't technically count, it does render those planets uninhabitable.

And Reach is playing this to the hilt, with an impressive number of unlockable items, which carry over to campaign (and vice versa). And how!

Body Armor as Hit Points: The games have the overshield pickups. Depending on the game, the pickup will give one or two layers of overshields that will multiply the player's effective health by a factor of 2-4. In the single-player campaign, overshields last until depleted by damage, but they also decay over time in multiplayer matches.

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: During the fall of Reach, Admiral Whitcomb re-purposes one of the UNSC's new experimental NOVA Bombs and leaves it booby trapped so that if the Covenant took it back to one of their planets, it'd induce massive casualties. By the time the bomb detonates however, the Covenant is fractured under civil war and ending up annihilating a major reorganizing fleet of the faction that ended up siding with Humanity. Though it is possible that if the fleet remained, they wouldn't have been desperate enough to side with the humans at all. Also note that those Elites hadn't sided humanity, and were still hell bent on annihilating us. If you consider O.N.I. heroes, their plot of fracturing the Elite society only created more forces who would take up The Didacts mission against humanity. And for causing Dr Halsey to side with them. Taking one of the Spartans to train to fight the Insurrection actually causes some of the suspicious parents to become part of the Insurrection. Although that may be more of a source of irony...

Super-Soldier: The Spartans. You've been kidnapped by the army, kid, will never see your family again, and have been replaced by a clone that will die soon. You will have to go through grueling training and risky augmentation, then get stuffed into a suit of armour that makes people wonder if you're actually a robot, and have difficulty bonding with anyone not a SPARTAN II. Oh, and no one will ever know your real name, if you die you're listed as "MIA" or "WIA", and you no longer have any sex drive whatsoever. Who wants to volunteer? Further deconstructed in Ghosts of Onyx. The SPARTAN III's are prepubescent Laser Guided Tykebombs assembled from thousands of orphans of Earth's lost colonies, and trained to assault and hopefully destroy Covenant installations en masse as mostly cannon fodder to slow the Covenant's advance. The first chapter of said novel details the carnage of one such mission, one that leaves only two survivors out of hundreds, and renders one of them forever mute from Post Traumatic Stress. The worst part? If it hadn't been done, humanity wouldn't have lasted long enough to become nearly extinct in Halo 3.

SPARTAN-1337 from the non-canon Odd One Out manages to chew the scenery with a helmet on.

Black-and-Gray Morality: The UNSC is a totalitarian military dictatorship that runs Child Super-Soldier programs that kill the bulk of their recruits, gives cloned kids cancer in order to cover it up, backstabs their own allies in order to maintain the Balance of Power, nukes civilian populations off the face of the planet in response to rebellion, etc. Its semi-shadow government, the Office of Naval Intelligence, veers much closer to the black side of things, with its willingness to do things even the rest of the UNSC doesn't approve of. It borders on Stupid Evil when they nearly start a war between the Elites and humanity after 4 by supporting the Servants of Abiding Truth against the Swords of Sanghelios, the latter of which is led by the Arbiter, who saved humanity from extinction. The UNSC would be the Big Bad in most other works, but against the Covenant and Flood, they come off as the lesser of the evils. Forward Unto Dawn fully reveals the level of the UNSC's indoctrination of its own citizens, as well. They named their top military academy after a Roman general who committed suicide because his emperor ordered him to, purely because said emperor saw him as a threat to Imperial power. The UNSC glorifies said general as an example of what all UNSC officers should be, and even makes the Final Speech that he used to justify his suicide the official motto of the academy. Additionally, Forward Unto Dawn confirms that the UNSC's population on Earth was largely not even aware of how the war was going in space, even as they were losing horribly and about to be invaded, indicating an absurd level of state censorship and information control. The Insurrectionists have legitimate grievances with the UNSC's aforementioned heavy-handedness, but extremist elements pushed them towards full-out terrorism. It should be noted, though, that they only resorted to weapons of mass destruction after the UNSC had already done so, and their decentralized structure ("Insurrectionists" is just a convenient name given to a bunch of separate movements) means they can't really be lumped together. The Covenant's ruling caste is highly corrupt (and in some cases, possibly borderline insane), but the rest are either misguided by religious fervor, expendable slaves for all intents and purposes, just tagging along to fix stuff, otherwise coerced into serving the Covenant, or simply mercenaries with no real grudge against anyone. Even the Brutes, who are aggressive and violent by nature, have admirable traits and are capable of existing with other species in good faith under the right circumstances. They are, however, actively and (for the Brutes and Elites at least) willingly engaging in a mass genocide of tens of billions, marking them as a clear black.The Prophet of Truth, on the other hand, seems like a definite Omnicidal Maniac in the games. However, in the books, his conversations and inner monologue make it clear that he believes that the truth about the Forerunners and the Halos would destroy the Covenant and bring about a deadly civil war. He wasn't completely wrong, even though the actual civil war that breaks out was almost entirely his fault. That said, even the novels make it clear that he's still a power-hungry sociopath at heart. The Forerunners genuinely wished to protect the galaxy and its inhabitants, but they grew arrogant and complacent because of their extremely advanced technology, to the point where they eventually became imperialists who prioritized their own self-aggrandizement at least as much as the rest of the galaxy's well-being. When the Flood came knocking, they realized that they had left their charges weak and dependent, and could only defeat the Flood through a desperate last resort plan - killing all remaining sentient life in the Milky Way, including most of the surviving Forerunners, in order to starve out the parasite. Ultimately, the end of their ecumene could be interpreted as a Heroic Sacrifice or the cost of their foolishness/sins, depending on how idealistic/cynical one is. (and that's not counting the Forerunner remnants fought in Halo 4, whose leader, The Didact, wants to enslave if not exterminate mankind, and was downright exiled for extremism) The Flood have killed and infected trillions upon trillions of people, but their hive mind, the Gravemind, sincerely believes that it simply bring peace and prosperity to a galaxy which simply doesn't understand the Flood due to ignorance and fear (The Forerunner Saga hints that its true intentions might be far more malevolent, though). While its seemingly utopian goals are never explicitly stated, there are many allusions to it, particularly after it becomes clear to the Gravemind that it has lost:

Holding Back the Phlebotinum
 Halo (Franchise) / int_87f943a7
comment
Holding Back the Phlebotinum: Why the UNSC did not field their emerging shield technology more widely during the war. According to Dr. Halsey's diary that accompanies the Special Edition of Halo: Reach, humans have a very good understanding of shield technology now, but it is limited by two major related factors: size and power. As the volume of area to be shielded grows, the power requirements to maintain the shield increase exponentially. Shielding an entire starship would require several times more power than that ship can generate. However, shielding an infantryman or small vehicle has more modest power requirements, albeit still much more than an infantryman or small vehicle would typically have a power plant capable of producing. Humanity can make small enough power generators in the form of micro-fusion cells, but they are rarely cost-effective to produce, making each one almost the cost of a small starship. However, the Spartan-IIs already incorporate such a device into their Powered Armor by necessity, making adding shields to their existing systems relatively trivial. As for the Covenant technology they reverse-engineered their shields from? Humanity still has no idea how those things are powered, and from all appearances lack an obvious power source altogether. In the post-war era, however, humanity's understanding of shielding technology has grown to the point where they can now both mass-produce shielded Power Armor and provide energy shields to all their new spaceships.

United Nations Is a Superpower
 Halo (Franchise) / int_8a8882bd
comment
United Nations Is A Super Power: The United Nations in Halo founded both the Unified Earth Government (UEG) and the UN Space Command (UNSC); the UEG absorbed its parent organization into one of its branches, but was itself eventually subsumed during the Human-Covenant War - by the UNSC, which now rules all of humanity in the Milky Way galaxy. It's also implied and at points shown that individual nations and cultures not only retain some degree of autonomy but are very much alive within the UNSC. Examples include mentions of the United Kingdom and the very Filipino Katagalugan colony on Mars.

Deconstructed in the Halo: Evolutions tale The Return. Years after the end of the Human-Covenant war, but with the Great Schism still raging on, many Elites (including the protagonist Shipmaster) face a spiritual crisis. Without the Prophets to give them answers, many Elites don't know what to do now that everything they used to fight for was proven a lie. The Brutes are also victims of the Deconstruction; they happily waged war with the equipment gifted to them by the Prophets, but their cohesiveness crumbled once the Prophets disappeared, and their savagery led them to fight more among themselves than against the Elites.

Joke Item: Several civilian vehicles can be driven in Reach, such as a forklift, which of course has no weapons and doesn't move fast enough to run over enemies. It can be placed in multiplayer maps, perhaps for incredibly slow-paced races, or driven on a Firefight map if you feel like fooling around and have a death wish.

Macross Missile Massacre: UNSC ships of the line also carry ludicrous numbers of Archer missle pods that can produce this effect. Unfortunately they are not particularly effective against Covenant energy shielding. They are however very effective against unshielded Covenant ships. Indeed, standard policy during the war was to attempt to use MAC rounds to drop Covenant shields, before executing this manoeuvre.

Proud Warrior Race Guy: The Elites and the Brutes, especially the former, less so for the latter. The Hunters sort of fall into this as well, as did the Forerunners' Warrior-Servant caste. Deconstructed in the Halo: Evolutions tale The Return. Years after the end of the Human-Covenant war, but with the Great Schism still raging on, many Elites (including the protagonist Shipmaster) face a spiritual crisis. Without the Prophets to give them answers, many Elites don't know what to do now that everything they used to fight for was proven a lie. The Brutes are also victims of the Deconstruction; they happily waged war with the equipment gifted to them by the Prophets, but their cohesiveness crumbled once the Prophets disappeared, and their savagery led them to fight more among themselves than against the Elites. Also deconstructed in the Kilo-Five books, which show the Elites struggling to maintain their technology without the aid of the Prophets and Engineers in the immediate aftermath of the third game. However, later media indicates that the Elites have made impressive progress in (re)developing respectable technical skills by the time of Halo 4. The Elites take it so far that they even have the official Latin species name of "Macto Cognatus"note literally "I glorify my kin".

No One Could Survive That!: In the third game, the Chief swan-dives off of Truth's Forerunner Dreadnought from orbit, but is mostly unscathed, with his only protection being his armor and a Forerunner door (which he used as a heat shield). Johnson escaping Alpha Halo is treated this way in Halo 2, but First Strike had already revealed that Johnson was able to escape on a Pelican with a few others.

Flawed Prototype
 Halo (Franchise) / int_8cda3dc2
comment
Flawed Prototype: The original Super-Soldier program, Project Orion, was deemed a complete failure for producing only marginal improvements on existing soldiers (Sergeant Johnson was one candidate). Dr. Halsey felt it gave good insight into her revamped Spartan program, which is why she retroactively called Orion candidates Spartan I's as she moved on to create the Spartan II's. Spartan II's, while near unstoppable, also had very restrictive selection parameters, a decade-long training program and their cybernetic/biological implants had a 50% fatality/maiming rate. The Spartan III's (made without Halsey's oversight or knowledge), expanded the selection process, truncated the length of training and modern medical technology allowed near universal survival rates on surgical enhancements. As a whole they were not as impressive soldiers as the Spartan II's but they were far more numerous, letting the UNSC use them for a Suicide Mission without costing them their entire Spartan program. The Mjolnir Powered Armor was put into development at the same time as the Spartan II's began training, but early designs were very clunky, weakly armored and needed a power tether to operate for any significant period of time. It wasn't until the Mark IV with a miniature fusion core that the Spartan's actually started using the armor in combat. The Mark V, the one the player has in Halo: Combat Evolved, was the first to feature a Deflector Shield. The Mark VI and beyond have merely been incredemental improvements from there.

Wham Episode: Halo: Cryptum, SO MUCH. You were wondering how humans and Forerunners first met 100,000 years ago? How about... humans had an interstellar empire so large that it rivaled the Forerunners', until it was destroyed by the Forerunners for infringing on their territory while running away from the Flood, which humanity eventually defeated before falling themselves. That's right, ancient humanity was the first to find and fight the Flood (with the help of the Prophets). We even invented a cure for the Flood that DIDN'T involve the total annihilation of life in the galaxy, but it was destroyed (either out of human bitterness or Forerunner ignorance) when the Forerunners invaded, DEVOLVED OUR SPECIES and erased all traces of the earlier civilization, restricting us to our homeworld. The Librarian mentioned in Halo 3 was actually intended to keep us in check.

Revisiting the Roots
 Halo (Franchise) / int_8eb3d48f
comment
Revisiting the Roots: Halo 2 and Halo 3 added all sorts of fronds and foofaraw that evidently no one liked, because the Gaiden Game (Halo 3: ODST) and prequel (Halo: Reach) deliberately scaled them back, hewing closer to the original gameplay model presented by Halo: Combat Evolved. Halo 4 continued with the trend (though it introduced a few unpopular features of its own), and Halo 5: Guardians went even further by paring back the changes made in both Reach and 4 (though it also added in some useful movement-based abilities of its own). Likewise, Halo Infinite rolls back many of the highly disputed changes made by 343 in Halo 4 and Halo 5, returning to art style, character design, and gameplay more in line with the classic Halo 1 to Halo 3 games.

Character Exaggeration
 Halo (Franchise) / int_9002083e
comment
Character Exaggeration: The Covenant's potential to "glass" entire planets is subject to a strong degree of exaggeration In-Universe. While they certainly have the capacity to reduce an entire planet's surface to glass using their energy weapons, it is a very lengthy process, and though impressive, is rarely worth the time it takes, leading the Covenant to focus on glassing major population centers and doing some crisscrossing sweeps across the rest of the world. With atmospheric convection, the destruction is equally deadly if less absolute. For their part, the Covenant boast of their ability to cleanse entire planets, while reports to the UNSC exaggerate the destructive potential to galvanize humanity into action. This is backed up by information from one of the datapads in Halo: Reach, saying that the Covenant do not have the resources to glass an entire planet and wage a multi-system war at the same time, and that to entirely glass Earth would require about thirty years of continuous bombardment by a fleet of equal size to that possessed by the UNSC.That said, said datapad was written only about a year into the war, when the Covenant were still only committing a relatively small percent of their fleet to the war effort; another datapad written around the fifth year of the war gives a conservative estimate of about one to over three centuries just to re-terraform only four colony worlds. Additionally, while glassing is no longer shown as destroying literally everything on a planet's surface, post-Reach media still depicts its destructive effects as near-apocalyptic, with Halo 5: Guardians showing that even a rushed glassing is still capable of boiling away every ocean on a small planet.

Hivemind: The Gravemind.

You also have the Proto-Gravemind that's present on the Truth and Reconciliation with Keyes inside, as well as the Proto-Graveminds which serve as Flood bases in Halo Wars. Primordium shows that Installation 07 has ten Proto-Graveminds contained within it, while the Timeless One itself turns out to be a Gravemind; when its original body is killed, it simply reincarnates in time to show up in Silentium.

Restricted Expanded Universe: Averted. The video games are rather light on plot, allowing the Expanded Universe to go hog-wild on it. The multimedia adaptations give characters new backstories and personality traits that are never hinted at in the games; not to mention that they introduce and kill off new characters. They also flesh out the origins of both the UNSC and the Covenant. As a bonus, they add new weapons and vehicles. As a result, the fans regard them as better than the source material. When 343 Industries takes over development duties from Bungie, the Expanded Universe becomes much more integrated with the games from Halo 4 onward, especially regarding the Didact.

Once for Yes, Twice for No: The Superintendent Municipal AI in Halo 3: ODST. Because it's a "dumb" AI, incapable of learning, and only used to maintain New Mombasa, it only has preprogrammed responses available as dialogue. For example, if it wants the Rookie to turn right at an intersection, nearby screens with light up with signs like 'DETOUR' and 'KEEP RIGHT'.

Creative Sterility: The Covenant, though technologically superior, are only so because they depend on weapons and ships salvaged from the ruins of the ancient Forerunner race, which they slavishly copy with religious reverence. Humans are the only species capable of innovation, and often incorporate and improve upon captured Covenant tech. The Master Chief's energy shields are based on the similar Elite model, for instance. Though it's not so much that the Covenant are incapable of innovation as much as that they generally see even simply changing the settings on Forerunner technology as heretical. The Elites and the Prophets, for example, were already about as technologically advanced as 26th century humanity before they began messing around with Forerunner tech. In Halo: Cryptum, the Prophets are noted to be a scientifically-gifted species whose technology equals that of their prehistoric human allies, who were nearly a match for the Forerunner themselves.

Greater-Scope Villain: In the first trilogy, whilst humanity is fighting the Covenant in a decades-spanning war, both forces discover the Flood is a greater threat to life in the galaxy. From Halo 4 onward, the Forerunners (specifically the Didact) and their Prometheans constructs are recognized as a greater threat than the Covenant remnants, something which is further expanded upon in the end of Halo 5; all organic life in the galaxy now face subjugation by Cortana's army of Forerunner deathbots and rogue AIs. By the last book of The Forerunner Saga, the Precursors are known to be the greatest threat to all life in the galaxy; though they originally seeded the Milky Way with life, they now intend to subjugate and consume said life. Their current form? The Flood. In fact, the Didact's own murderous grudge against humanity was a result of him being semi-brainwashed by the Flood.

Kill It with Fire
 Halo (Franchise) / int_9c1f758a
comment
Kill It with Fire: Flamethrower in the third game. Its range is short and it slows you down quit a bit, however, in close quarters it can ruin anyone's day. Also, the Flood Pure Forms pretty much die as soon as they're lit up. On higher difficulties they still have enough time to run up and hit you a couple times before they die. Which is made worse since they're on fire now. So yes, in close quarters the Flamethrower can ruin anyone's day. Often, though, your day is also ruined. For more controlled flames, the incendiary grenades were usually a better choice. Unless your aim was terrible. Another previous version was available in the form of the multiplayer of the original game's PC port, alongside other exclusive weapons, which didn't slow you down and allowed you to keep your melee and grenades which 3's version didn't allow for. It was also the only weapon to function on a dual combination of overheat and magazine ammo mechanics, which otherwise were used separately for any given weapon.

In Halo 3, the Brutes lose their Made of Iron status, instead being dependent on energy shields and playing much more like Elites (although unshielded Brutes still have higher-than-average health and can take 15-30 assault rifle bullets (depending on class) to kill).

The All-Seeing A.I.: Noteably averted, in all games including the first Halo: Combat Evolved; Enemies are only aware of your last known position once they lose sight of you, so it's possible to flank and sneak up behind them in a firefight if you use walls as cover. One of the skulls in Halo 2 makes the game harder by making enemies aware of your position at all times.

Continuity Nod: Quite a few of them. Regret's carrier being able to jump inside Earth's atmosphere in Halo 2 is probably a nod towards the scene in First Strike in which Cortana discovers that this can be done by making the Ascendant Justice enter slipspace within a gas giant. The Package has the Master Chief interact with Dr. Halsey face to face and she acts exactly like Cortana, right down to telling him "Don't make a promise to a girl if you know you can't keep it."

Leit Motif: Although the composers said they weren't doing a "Peter and the Wolf" approach, some characters and locations do have musical themes associated with them, such as the Delta Halo theme, the High Charity theme, the first part of "Enough Dead Heroes" (sort of Cortana's theme), the middle third of said piece (often heard when fighting Hunters), "Shadows" (the Flood's theme in the series), "The Last Spartan" (the MC's theme in the second and third games), the Arbiter's characteristic theme (aka "Falling Up"), and "Farthest Outpost" (the Ark theme). Many of these are also recurring riffs, ie they play in scenes unassociated with the character or location.

Suicide Mission: Occurs throughout the series, such as the Arbiter's first mission in Halo 2.

And the Spartan-IIIs are expendable Super Soldiers designed to be sent on suicide missions.

Final Speech
 Halo (Franchise) / int_a0d9c2f3
comment
Forward Unto Dawn fully reveals the level of the UNSC's indoctrination of its own citizens, as well. They named their top military academy after a Roman general who committed suicide because his emperor ordered him to, purely because said emperor saw him as a threat to Imperial power. The UNSC glorifies said general as an example of what all UNSC officers should be, and even makes the Final Speech that he used to justify his suicide the official motto of the academy. Additionally, Forward Unto Dawn confirms that the UNSC's population on Earth was largely not even aware of how the war was going in space, even as they were losing horribly and about to be invaded, indicating an absurd level of state censorship and information control.

Space Marine: Mostly played straight by Master Chief John-117 and the other Spartans. There's just one wrinkle; the Spartan-IIs and IIIs are actually part of the UNSC Navy, with Master Chief Petty Officer being John's actual rank. In general, the S-IIs and IIIs are either commissioned (Lieutenant, Captain, etc.) or non-commissioned (Petty Officer 1st Class, Master Chief Petty Officer, etc.) naval officers, making them closer to Navy SEALs. In the case of the Spartan-IVs, they operate in their own branch, meaning that they're still technically not marines. Averted by the actual UNSC Marine Corps, with one exception; the ODSTs, who have the armor, operate from space (their whole job is being dropped from orbit into battlefields, and always work as a squad (contrasting the often solitary operation of many Spartans).

Biological Weapons Solve Everything: The first trilogy can be loosely interpreted to end this way.

Humanity can only guarantee Pyrrhic victories at best against the Covenant, until circumstances cause the Elites to secede and ally with humanity.

Ms. Fanservice: Cortana. Even back in the first game, where her appearance was relatively "unsexy", almost butch, compared to her later incarnations, there were still plenty of jokes about her appearance. Also probably also the reason that they dialed down Dr. Halsey's visual age from 52 to 20 AT MOST in The Package.

Oddly Named Sequel 2: Electric Boogaloo: Strangely inverted, with the first game getting the subtitle of "Combat Evolved" (because Microsoft insisted that the game couldn't just be called "Halo"). Other than that, the only main series game to play this straight is Halo 5: Guardians. Halo 3: ODST is a strange case; the game takes place concurrently with Halo 2, but it gets its name because it uses 3's engine.

Retcon: Lots of them. The books, video games and other media frequently contradict each other on the dates of the timeline, the history of the Covenant and the level of technology that humanity has. Current official policy is that new material trumps old material, unless otherwise stated. Some stories which takes place before the original Halo neglected the fact that The Fall of Reach states that Spartan-IIs did not have energy shields until just before the Battle of Reach. In the case of Halo Wars, Ensemble admitted that this was merely a gameplay decision and that, canonically, Red Team never actually had energy shields...until the Essential Visual Guide changed all that by saying that they were actually field-testing an early prototype. Current canon seems to be that all pre-2552 examples of human energy shields were simply prototypes that were still being field-tested. The Package shows the UNSC ONI Prowlers having stealth field technology that puts the Elites' Active Camouflage to shame, but in their original appearance in the novels, they were just immune to sensors and painted black to hide in space. It was later established that there are multiple types of Prowlers, with the more advanced types having genuine Active Camo. The short also shows the Spartans dogfighting in space with ships that have energy shields, which should have been impossible due to when it takes place, as mentioned above. The Fall of Reach originally claimed that humanity had never encountered the Elites until they attacked Reach...but they're encountered by the Spartan-IIIs of Beta Company during Operation: TORPEDO in Ghosts of Onyx, by the crew of the Spirit of Fire in Halo Wars, and by several Spartan-IIs and marines in Halo Legends, Halo: Evolutions, and The Cole Protocol, all of which took place long before the Battle of Reach. Finally, the 2010 re-release of The Fall of Reach eliminated any mention of the Elites being a newly encountered species, and the new "Adjunct" section outright showed several instances of direct Human-to-Elite contact taking place decades before the invasion of Reach. The events of First Strike was supposed to be the first time UNSC forces had ever engaged the Brutes, and then Contact Harvest, Halo Legends, Halo: Evolutions, and Halo: Reach all showed that they had been fighting each other since the beginning of the war. Once again, the 2010 re-release eliminated any reference to them being a newly encountered species. Also, The Flood had Master Chief cutting and breaking the spinal cords of Hunters (supported by the fact that 1 pistol shot to the back would kill them), but Halo 2 would establish that they're actually giant colonies of worm-eel aliens with no central nervous system. Although they do have spine-like bracers running up their backs in Reach. Halo: Reach (and the journal that came with the Limited/Legendary editions) reveals that Halsey already figured out that there were other Spartan programs other than her own before the events of Ghosts of Onyx (though she's not aware of the true nature of the S-III program until said book). Halo: Reach also shows the Pillar of Autumn in drydock during the battle (which never happens in The Fall of Reach, where it spends the entire fight up in space). Additionally, the game and Halsey's journal has it so that Cortana split herself before the battle, with the main fragment going with the Chief and the smaller piece staying with Halsey to translate a Forerunner artifact which would end up providing the main Cortana AI with the coordinates to Halo, seemingly invalidating the significance of the Sigma Octanus symbols from The Fall of Reach...unless the information from the Reach artifact was what allowed Cortana to translate the Sigma Octanus symbols in the first place. Halo: Reach (see a theme here?) also extends the length of the titular battle from a single day to about a month. While the official explanation is that ONI kept the first stages of the battle secret, there are still some unresolved timeline discrepancies. Halo Wars 2 retconned a lot of the events of Halo 3, albeit plausibly so. The Ark was previously confirmed to have survived the events of the game in other media despite 343 Guilty Spark's claims that prematurely firing the incomplete Halo would destroy the Ark, but this game reveals that the Halo foundry at its core is still functioning and has a ring ready to be deployed, while the Awakening the Nightmare DLC reveals that despite being ostensibly destroyed by the Master Chief in 3, both High Charity and the Flood inside are still intact, though the Gravemind is still dead for now. It also features a Catrographer in a very different location to its appearance in 3, though it's possible the Ark has multiple Cartographers given its size.

Bottomless Magazines: Any armed vehicle you drive will have these. So do turret weapons, unless you detach them. All NPCs have this, which becomes a major problem when up against RPG-wielding Flood combat forms. From Halo 2 onwards, when it becomes possible to exchange weapons with friendly NPCs, the player can exploit this by giving a limited-ammo BFG, such as an RPG or fuel rod gun, to an ally.

It's Raining Men: The ODSTs , aka the Orbital Drop Shock Troopers. In Halo 3, MC falls two kilometers, lands on his back, and is pretty much only stunned. Apparently, he survived it because he surfed through the sky on a hunk of metal taken from the Forerunner Dreadnought. Noble Six performs a similar act in Reach and survives a fall from orbit. However, a cutscene in the level preceding this occurrence shows that s/he is wearing a Reentry Pack, with the following level showing him/her holding his/her left arm and starting on low health, making this a justified instance of the trope.

The Covenant. Though many of its members are shown to be absolute bastards to both humanity and each other, most of the Covenant isn't evil, they're just being manipulated, coerced, or enslaved by the Prophets (and even they're not completely evil). Even the Brutes, the most brutal and violent of the races, have some decent people. The Flood are evil, but there's an implication that the Gravemind genuinely thinks that it's doing the right thing by assimilating everyone (though The Forerunner Saga implies its true purpose may be far more malevolent). By the time of the second game, a combination of the Prophets' backstabbing of the Elites and revelations about the Halos' true purpose causes many members of the Covenant to rebel and join with humanity.

Sparse List of Rules: The Cole Protocol is the UNSC's most important naval code, since it lists the actions they are not allowed to do to prevent the Covenant from discovering Earth. However several rules are often ignored because they're just technicalities. We only hear one of those ignored rulings in Subsection 7: "No captured Covenant vessel can be brought back to human space without a thorough search for tracking devices." This is useless because the Covenant self-destruct all their vessels in danger of capture (or try to; John and friends manage to grab one in Halo: First Strike).

Aerith and Bob: Not so much for any human characters, but for UNSC ship names. The ones featured the games tend to be poetic and/or even just a little bit weird: Pillar of Autumn, Spirit of Fire, Aegis Fate, In Amber Clad, Forward Unto Dawn, and Say My Name. But ships from the novels tend to have more normal names like Leviathan, Fairweather, Gettysburg, and Texas. The odd ship names are very likely a nod to the ones in Iain M. Banks's Culture universe, a setting which also has giant ringworlds. That said, this trope's prevalence in Halo really depends on the writer. For example, the Halo: Evolutions story Midnight in the Heart of Midlothian (written by former Bungie staffer and current 343i Franchise Development Director Frankie O'Connor) takes place in a ship called The Heart of Midlothian. Even the later novels that aren't written by Bungie/343i staffers have indulged in this trope a little more, with names like Do You Feel Lucky? and All Under Heaven. You also have the funny variations for civilian freighters: This End Up, Contents Under Pressure, Bulk Discount, Horn of Plenty, or Wholesale Price.

The Last Dance: Admiral Preston Cole. After being depended upon for so long in the Human-Covenant War by the UNSC (compared in The Impossible Life and Possible Death of Preston Cole as being in command of the battles of the Alamo, Termopylae, Stalingrad, and Cold Harbor, and repeating them over, and over), it was believed that he began to fall under the psychological strain, to the point it was speculated that he fell into another Heroic BSoD... but one that led him to face three hundred Covenant ships around a gas giant, killing plenty of them with slingshot maneuvers, using gravity as both a lure and a shield against the Covenant Plasma shots, mocking them with a Bad Ass Boast that angers them and drives them towards him, and ending with an implosion using said goddamn gas giant into a sun, killing all three hundred Covenant ships. The best part? If the ONI officer reviewing Cole's life is correct, Cole SURVIVED by executing an in-atmosphere slip-space jump, and is most likely finally living a life of peace far outside UNSC or Covenant space. He deserves it.

Despotism Justifies the Means: The three High Prophets discovered that the humans are the rightful inheritors of the Forerunners' legacy, and this would undo the Prophets' rule over the Covenant. So they set out to eliminate humanity to maintain their rule.

Border Patrol: Invisible instant-death barriers prevent shortcutting or wandering out of bounds; some multiplayer maps, such as "Snowbound", have plausible border control devices. According to Bungie, the number of these (at least in campaign) are going to be reduced allowing the maps to be more explorable.

Humans Are Warriors
 Halo (Franchise) / int_c0f87dda
comment
Humans Are Warriors: Many species of the Covenant believe it, especially the Sangheili, and the Gravemind believe that Humans are a greater threat to the Flood than the Covenant, who he only see as arrogant good-for-nothing fodder. This trope is explored in the Halo Legends episode Origins, remarking both the achievements that led humanity to be a growing civilization, and the unfathomable slaughter that war had caused upon them. After reviewing the story of both the Forerunners and Humanity, Cortana wonders whenever if warriors will ever be gone from the world... and, bitterly, she comes to the conclusion that they will never disappear, and that there would always be war. The Forerunner Saga reveals that humanity's prehistoric interstellar civilization was pretty good at war too, to the point where they could put up a fight against the Forerunners themselves.

Drop Ship: The UNSC has their sturdy and reliable Pelicans to transport troops, vehicles, mechs, and cargo, as well as provide fire support against both air and ground targets. The rarer and much larger Albatross is a troop and cargo transport with heavier armor at the expense of firepower, while the helicopter-like Falcon serves as squad transport and fire support. The Covenant use the Type-25 Spirit, used as an atmospheric transport, and the Type-52 Phantom, the Covenant's answer to Pelicans.

comment
A.K.A.-47: The Sniper Rifle System 99 series (particularly the 99D-S2 Anti-Matériel) bears a heavy resemblance to the South African-made NTW-20 (manufactured by the Mechem division of the DENEL group), sharing many of the same features; chambering for the 14.5 x 114mm round, the stock, carrying handle/scope guard and the muzzle brake. The only major differences are that the Halo weapon is semi-automatic versus the NTW's bolt-action, and loads magazines from the bottom rather than the side. According to Robert McLees, the MA5 series of assault rifles is not based off of the Belgian FN F2000, though he grudgingly admits that people would have reason to think it was after comparing the two.

Science Marches On: In-universe. Human technology in many cases has come a long way since the Covenant war, due a combination of reverse-engineering Covenant and Forerunner tech and plain old R&D. Post-war human ships are bigger and more powerful than their earlier counterparts, have energy shielding, and can usually hold their own against an equivalent Covenant force. They've also solved a lot of their slipspace issues; the newest human ships can now jump exactly when and where they want, and they appear to be able to cross large swathes of galaxy in mere days. To top it off, they can even mass-produce Spartans now.

True Companions: Quite a few examples. Spartans (both Type-II and Type-III) are trained together from childhood and quickly become like family. Sangheili/Elites refer to each other as "brother" and are hardly ever seen without another of their kind nearby. And the squad in ODST is fairly tight-knit as well, though events after the game end up irrevocably breaking them apart.

Harder Than Hard
 Halo (Franchise) / int_c513249

Harder Than Hard: Legendary difficulty. Halo 3 describes it as "Tremble as hordes of invincible alien monsters punish the slightest mistake with instant death... again and again." At least they're honest. One optional skull bonus basically boosts the difficulty by one more level, and turning on every skull, for all sorts of added difficulty, is nicknamed Mythic Difficulty. The legendary Recon multiplayer armor requires you to 4-man the final level of Halo 3 ODST, among other things. On Legendary. With Iron activated. Without using the scorpion tank or any of the warthogs, and you will wish you could use them, while protecting the elephant to the Last Exit. However to make it "easier" you do get to use a infinite ammo rocket launcher. (For the record, Iron is a skull that punishes a single death with utter failure. Good luck.) The Vidmaster Challenge achievement "Annual" from Halo 3 also counts, as it has similar conditions as ODST, but on the level Halo. The main difference is instead of using the warthog, or mongoose, you have to use ghosts.

Cutscene Incompetence: This affects the titular members of ODST, mostly because the game's Rashomon-style narrative leaves them in the interesting position of being both Player Characters and Non Player Characters, depending on whose flashback you're watching. If you, The Player, establish a habit of displaying awesomeness while playing as any given squad member, that squad member will not continue in similar style when the AI takes over again.

The name "John-117" also may have meaning; from biblical references (various passages in the Book of John or in Revelations with the numbers "1" and "7" could be read as relating to Halo's plot) to a Shout-Out to Demolition Man. It's also often pronounced one-seventeen, 1:17 is 77 seconds and 7 is Bungie's Arc Number.

Never Be Hurt Again

The Banished are shown to be much more egalitarian than the original Covenant, with people of any species able to climb the ranks if they prove themselves, and Atriox was even willing to permit humans to join the Banished, a first for any of the series' villains (though very, very few humans seem to have done so). And their motivation is a simple case of Never Be Hurt Again. They're harsh and brutal, but they're motivated by fear of being oppressed rather than lust for power.

 Halo (Franchise) / int_ccab244d
comment
Kinetic Weapons Are Just Better: 500 years into the future, we have AIs, FTL ships, and Powered Armor; however, most of the UNSC's weapons and vehicles are just shinier versions of ours (in fact, their assault rifle ammo, 7.62x51mm NATO, can be bought at your local gun dealer today). Stuff like Spartan Lasers, MAC cannons, and Gauss cannons are exceptions, of course. In-game though, UNSC weapons tend to be more effective against fleshy foes like the Flood than the Covenant's (with the exception of Pure Forms), with plasma being better against shields. The Brutes also favor kinetic weaponry of their own design (often augmented with select Covenant tech), despite their access to Covenant energy weapons.

Nothing Is Scarier: The first half of the level "343 Guilty Spark" consists of a small battle against the Covenant, running away from the facility you're going into - running toward the One-Man Army they call "The Demon". Then, the rest of the level plays out with next to no battles and almost complete silence. Just about the only other living thing you meet is a Marine who's so paranoid about something that all he does is huddle in a corner, shoot at anything that moves, and scream random things. The facility is obviously in disrepair, as well as blood all over the place, but it's not clear what caused it. Upon finding the remains of the squad you were looking for, you're treated to a video log of them being attacked by... something. Something starts banging on all the doors in the room, and your motion tracker goes berserk.

Bungie is so proud of it that they're shipping five maps made in Forge World on the disc.

Developer's Foresight: Flipping an Elephantnote The Elephant tank is so large, heavy, and slow-moving, that you can't really cause it to flip by maneuvering or conventional means. It's almost always either due to a glitch. tank in Halo 3 elicits this response. In the third game, there is a glitch that allows you to save Sergeant Johnson from his scripted death in a cutscene late in the game. However, when you perform this glitch, he is now able to be infected by Flood. If this happens, he'll state "Aren't I supposed to be immune to this?"

Lampshaded in Halo: Broken Circle by Mken 'Scre'ah'ben, known as the "Prophet of Inner Conviction" because of the purity he displayed in his youth. By the time the Covenant is established, he's already begun to have private doubts that the Halo Array is a means of divinity, thinking the texts he's read sound more like weapons, showing he lacks inner conviction. Unlike most Prophets, Mken is self-aware enough to recognize this and chastise himself for it.

Salt the Earth
 Halo (Franchise) / int_d4fc9734
comment
Salt the Earth: Taken to its logical extreme with glassing; the Covenant render entire planets barren. And it's a lengthy process, requiring multiple ships carrying out the bombardment from space after receiving approval from a Prophet. That said, full-scale glassings are rare; they require far too much time and resources, including several Covenant capital ships that would be otherwise better used elsewhere. Mostly, a glassing targets the population centers and otherwise blasts large crisscrossing orbits across a planet's surface, with convection burning out the areas in between. That said, even these lesser efforts are still effective in boiling away oceans and otherwise rendering the planet nigh-uninhabitable. However, glassed planets can be rehabilitated, as in the case of Reach, though it takes a lot of time and effort; one conservative estimate early in the war gave a timespan of about one to over three centuries just to re-terraform four worlds, and Halo 5: Guardians shows that deglassing even a small world is a slow and arduous process.

Sci-Fi Writers Have No Sense of Scale
 Halo (Franchise) / int_d525f857
comment
Sci-Fi Writers Have No Sense of Scale: The Expanded Universe is ridiculously bad about this: The novels cite insanely light masses for ships. The 480'ish meter long titanium armored frigate for instance is given a loaded mass of just 4,000 tons. Some rough math says that this results in a ship that's not quite lighter then air, which is about 1.2 kilos per cubic meter, but seeing as the frigate works out to something like 1.8 kilos per cubic meter it's damn close. It gets even more insane when we consider that the ship is supposed to be armed with a main gun that fires 600 ton slugs. Then there's the SPARTAN-II armor, which (including the wearer) supposedly weighs in at close to 1000 pounds. A set of armor that weighs as much as a Fiat. This would make much more sense in reference to prototype armor that the Mjolnir suits improved upon. In reality, the fact that it's mostly made of titanium alloy would put it closer to 200 lbs if it was double-layered shotgun-resistant plating. Plus, it's never explained how they don't sink into the ground when walking or destroy every ladder and staircase they ever use. While later media try to justify it by saying UNSC vehicles and equipment are heavily ruggedized, 1000 lbs is way heavier than most people realize. The population numbers given in the Halo 3 Bestiarum seems to be this for people who don't realize that they only refers to homeworld populations (hence why the number of Engineers is given only as "n/a", since they don't actually have a homeworld, not even an ersatz one like High Charity for the Prophets).

Mooks, but no Bosses: With the exception of Halo 2, the games generally lack any traditional boss fights. The final fight against 343 Guilty Spark in Halo 3 is more of an interactive cutscene/Zero-Effort Boss, and the Covenant Field Marshall at the end of Halo: Reach is only marginally stronger than a regular Gold Elite. Halo 2 was widely criticized for its boss fights, so presumably Bungie decided that boss fights just weren't their thing.

Right Hand Versus Left Hand
 Halo (Franchise) / int_d833090a

Right Hand Versus Left Hand: The political machinations within the Covenant in Halo 2. The Expanded Universe shows that the UNSC is not wholly united either. Taken to a whole new extreme with the infighting at the Office of Naval Intelligence. There the right hand doesn't even know the left even exists. Even more blatant when you consider the context behind this communication. To put it short, Ackerson kidnaps one of Halsey's Spartans(Kurt) to help start his own Mass Produced Spartan unit to compete with Halsey's. Kurt then covertly spirits a number of those Spartans from the S-III companies in order to form his own secret team of Elite Spartan III's outfitted with Mjolnir armor like the original Spartan II's. And everybody is in the dark about getting conned by somebody else.

Agri World
 Halo (Franchise) / int_d85e0470
comment
Agri World: Harvest, as the name implies, is a chiefly agricultural world and covered with extensive areas of farmland. This is not uncommon in the setting — some planets have more hours of daylight than is typical for Earth and happen to have huge tracts of very rich volcanic soil, leading to very large crop yields. Agriculture on such planets is both cheap and productive, and it costs less for other planets to import food from the farm worlds than to grow it locally. This is subverted later as the war rages on, as many of the Outer Colonies where much of the farming goes on are lost, and the Cole Protocol restricts intersteller travel, leading many inner planets to reluctantly take to growing their own food instead of importing it.

Lethal Joke Item: The Plasma Pistol and Needler, in a way. In the hands of a Grunt or a Jackal (the most likely places to find them), they hardly do Scratch Damage except on the higher difficulties, but in the hands of a player the pistol alone has been the basis of several game-bending-if-not-breaking combos (such as the infamous "Noob Combo" of Plasma Pistol/Battle Rifle), and the Needler has the unique distinction of being one of the few Covenant weapon that is particularly effective against unshielded targets (along with its ranged counterpart in Halo: Reach, the Needle Rifle).

Fake Ultimate Mook
 Halo (Franchise) / int_da32aec9
comment
Fake Ultimate Mook: Hunters in Halo 1 were just sad once you figured out their weak point and how to exploit it (one pistol shot to the orange bits and it's game over). Their cannon shots were powerful but easily dodged, and their melee attacks were so predictable that even the NPC Redshirts could dodge them with reasonable consistency. They majorly Took a Level in Badass in the sequels, though. In the sequels, they become a Boss in Mook Clothing. They can no longer be one-hit killed except with the sniper rifle, their armor completely deflects projectiles instead of simply reducing their damage (so you can only hurt them by shooting their weak point), their weak points are much harder to target (nearly impossible to get behind them now), and both their cannon and melee attacks can One-Hit Kill you. Reach makes them even more difficult by buffing their health and making them larger... ... and Halo 4 tops that by only throwing them at you in extremely close quarters on a couple different occasions.

Lightning Bruiser: Kelly in the novels was always the fastest Spartan, even when they were children. Once she goes through augmentations, she's described as being so fast that nothing could touch her if she didn't allow them too. She can reliably reach speeds up to 62 KPH (roughly 38 miles an hour). Of course, all the Spartans are Lightning Bruisers compared to normal humans. Jorge-052, Noble Teams Heavy weapons specialist carries a massive Heavy Machine gun which would require an entire crew of regular humans to man and would probably be cumbersome in the hands of even the other Spartans. Jorge however doesn't seem to be slowed down by it in the slightest.

Precursor Killers: The Flood, which ironically didn't kill the Forerunners, but forced them to commit suicide with the Halos. According to The Forerunner Saga, the Forerunners wiped out their own Precursors. It is then later revealed that the Flood are in fact the mutated remains of Precursors, who are out to get their revenge on all their creations, particularly the Forerunners. So you basically have a Precursor Killing-loop going on here.

Continuity Drift
 Halo (Franchise) / int_de86b894
comment
Continuity Drift: Halo canon has been continually experiencing this, though it's up in the air if some of the retcons are justified or not. This mainly applies to the books, which by the old official policy were only canon if they did not contradict the games, even if the book came out first. One notable example is that in the original print of The Fall of Reach, Hunters are first encountered on Sigma Octanus in 2552, and the Elites were hypothesized but not confirmed until the battle of Reach of that same year. However, Bungie was quite unhappy about Nylund establishing specific dates for first encounters, and therefore, as mentioned in the Retcon entry below, almost all other media showed that humanity had been fighting them since pretty much the beginning of the war; the 2010/2011 reprints basically settled the issue by eliminating any and all mentions of the Elites being newly encountered.

Updated Re-release: Halo: Combat Evolved: Anniversary is a bit of both this and Video Game Remake. The single-player mode actually runs on the original Halo: Combat Evolved engine, but with updated graphics using resources taken from Halo: Reach. The multiplayer mode, on the other hand, has been rebuilt from the ground up using the Halo: Reach engine. Halo 2: Anniversary is similar, if more extensive; its campaign has new graphics built from the ground up, and the engine for its exclusive multiplayer mode is also completely new. However, unlike the original Combat Evolved Anniversary, the old multiplayer is still available.

Short-Range Long-Range Weapon: Besides the usual "close range shotgun", the assault rifle in the first Halo is criminally inaccurate and essentially useless past about a couple dozen feet. This gets corrected in Halo 2, where they give you what is functionally the same weapon but make it a small submachine gun instead (which can be dual wielded), and in Halo 3, where the revamped assault rifle is more accurate but has a lower rate of fire and smaller magazine size as a a trade off, making it much more like a "modern day" standard FPS assault rifle.

Decoy Protagonist: The Rookie.

Halo: Reach implies that Noble Six was this to Master Chief in the series as a whole. Considering that Noble Six is completely customizable and is stated to have the same combat rating as Master Chief, this makes it one of the more sadistic examples.

Humans Are Special
 Halo (Franchise) / int_e0207930
comment
Humans Are Special: Hinted at strongly throughout the games, but ultimately confirmed in The Forerunner Saga, though not without being played with a bit. Humans were a cousin species to the Forerunners, and the ones the Precursors apparently truly wanted to give the "Mantle of Responsibility" to. Nonetheless, humanity's technology lagged just a little bit behind their more advanced cousins, and when the two species fought a war because because the humans were trying to escape the Flood by expanding their own holdings (which the Forerunners perceived as a threat), the Forerunners only won after a long and difficult slog. The Forerunners then took the few surviving humans, devolved them, and reduced their technology back to the Stone Age. However, while most Forerunners cared little for humans, the Librarian and her allies and followers still saw great potential in them, and did their part to slowly guide humanity on their path back to civilization. Finally, near the end of the Forerunner-Flood War, the Librarian and the IsoDidact issued emergency directives giving humanity "Reclaimer" status, officially making them the designated heir to the Forerunners' technological legacy. At this point, the few surviving Forerunners had already decided that they would no longer meddle in the galaxy after the Halos were fired, and so were willing to go along with it. Humanity also managed to apparently discover a means to defeat the Flood, but refused to give the Forerunners that information, destroying it when it was clear the Forerunners would win their war. However, it later turns out the Flood had merely faked being defeated for their own purposes.

 Halo (Franchise) / int_e061d153
comment
Sergeant Rock: Forge and Johnson are the main ones. Sergeant Stacker may be the true exemplar. He's that white sergeant whom you'll come across in Halo: Combat Evolved, Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST, Halo: Reach, and Halo 4. First, he leads civilian evacuation efforts during the Fall of Reach, before escaping on the Pillar of Autumn. On Halo, he gets rescued by Master Chief a few times, attacks the Silent Cartographer alongside Chief, and helps him to reach the control room, before managing to somehow escape Halo. He then fights in the Battle of Mombasa, leads the ODSTs supporting the Chief's assault on the Prophet of Regret, and gets captured alongside Johnson and Sergeant Banks. They then break free and capture a Scarab, and help Arbiter to save the Galaxy, before returning to Earth. After all that, he helps recover the Chief, then leads a convoy evacuating to Voi, before taking joint command of a force that successfully destroys an entire Covenant anti-air battalion. He then survives a Flood attack. Finally, he gets deployed onto the Ark alongside the rest of his fellow Marines and the Chief, where he leads an impromptu armored division that destroys a Covenant division and a Scarab, assaults the Citadel, then escapes off the Ark safely to return to Earth. And that isn't where his story ends. Several years later, he's assigned to the UNSC Infinity for the very voyage to Requiem in which they find the Master Chief, reprising his role as a tank commander.

Translation Convention
 Halo (Franchise) / int_e11b003d
comment
In most of the games, you can hear the cowardly Grunts shout things like "he's everywhere!" and "run for your lives!" when you attack them, along with many other goofy bits of dialogue. They're the only Covenant who speak English in the first game, with the official explanation being that the UNSC hadn't quite finished translating the other Covenant languages yet. In the subsequent games (with the exception of Reach and 4), the Brutes and Elites will also shout at you in English, presumably because MJOLNIR models from the Mark VI onward have updated translation software, due to Cortana accessing a Covenant lexicon aboard the Ascendent Justice in First Strike. There are also scenes of the Covenant speaking English among themselves, which is obviously Translation Convention at work.

Beating A Dead Player: The infamous teabag in multiplayer. Additionally, campaign NPCs and enemies will occasionally shoot enemy corpses (including yours) and shout at them. During gameplay, Marines will occasionally shout "Get up, so I can kill you again", showing that this trope is in full force even In-Universe. It becomes slightly less funny when the Flood actually do get back up.

Authority Equals Asskicking: Elite Zealots and Ultras/Generals/Warriors > all lower ranks. The method of climbing the ranks for Elites is by kills; literally, the more enemies you kill, the higher up you go in ranks, and nothing else matters. Brutes operate on Might Makes Right; if a Brute Chieftain isn't the strongest fighter in his clan/pack/etc, he'll inevitably be overthrown by a stronger underling. Some of the upper-level UNSC members, specifically Captain Jacob Keyes and Admiral Preston Cole. Especially Admiral Cole; the in-universe biography The Impossible Life and Possible Death of Preston J. Cole serves as irrefutable proof that he will rock your shit.

Art Evolution: The imagery of the original game was quickly overwhelmed by the graphical power advancements made in the years following, and as such by Halo: Reach the series really started hitting the issue with Cosmetically-Advanced Prequel. Halo 4 made a deliberate overhaul to the visual elements, maintaining some recognition factor but it was clearly a new design and not the original armor with modern graphics. Broad Strokes can also be applied to some things as between what is seen in the games, talked about in the expanded universe and visualized in media projects varies depending on the needs of the medium.

Nerf: Most infamously to the pistol, which went from a powerful mini-sniper rifle in Halo: CE to a dual-wieldable shield-eater in Halo 2... then it went to standard weak-ass FPS pistol land in the updated version of Halo 2 (though it regained much of its usefulness in ODST and Reach). Additionally, the later games noticeably weaken the Plasma Rifle as well as making it much less accurate (at least when the player's the one using it) to compensate for the fact you could now wield two at once (making it more of a Plasma submachine gun). The plasma pistol is likewise much weaker than its Halo: CE counterpart when not using overcharge shots. Elites in Halo 2 are significantly weaker without their shields than they were in Halo 1. In fact, an unshielded Elite in Halo 2 can survive less damage than even a mid-level Grunt. In Halo 3, the Brutes lose their Made of Iron status, instead being dependent on energy shields and playing much more like Elites (although unshielded Brutes still have higher-than-average health and can take 15-30 assault rifle bullets (depending on class) to kill). Almost all weapons suffered this effect over the series. Of the Halo 1 weapons, the plasma rifle lost its stun effect, the needler lost range and homing ability in Halo 2, the shotgun became much closer range, and the frag grenade became less powerful. In Halo 3, the rocket lost the homing ability from Halo 2; the rockets fired became slower; the assault rifle holds less rounds; the plasma pistol constantly loses charge in its overcharged state; and the grenade inventory fell from four of each type to two of each type, and since the fourth grenade is not standard on any multiplayer map and rare in the campaign, this effectively drops your grenade total from eight to six.

Determinator: The Spartans, especially the Master Chief. By extension, the entire human race. They went from having an fledgling interstellar domain to nothing more than Earth and a handful of scattered colonies, yet humanity were still throwing literally everything they had at the Covenant by the time the latter invaded Earth. The Elites respected humanity for its sheer determination, and even before the civil war, many wondered why they were never offered a chance to join the Covenant. And in only a few years after the end of the war, the UNSC had already reestablished itself as a significant power in the Orion Arm.Not to mention that in the prehistoric past, even after the Forerunners completely dismantled humanity's previous interstellar society and partially devolved them after a major war between the two species, they still were able to quickly redevelop a thriving, if still primitive, world civilization. And the actual war itself took ages to resolve, due to the humans continuing to fight until they were down to their last worlds. And this was all after successfully driving back the Flood (if only temporarily).

False Prophet
 Halo (Franchise) / int_e596b496
comment
False Prophet: The High Prophet of Truth, leader of the Covenant, is ultimately revealed to be this. When he learned that humanity were the chosen race by the Forerunners, he realized this knowledge had the potential to break the Covenant, or at least the Prophets' control over it. So he lied to his faithful, claiming that humans were heretical, demonic creatures whose very existence could not be tolerated. It's also implied that he knows the truth about the Halo rings, but still tries to activate them because he'd rather die in power than admit reality. He gave himself the name "Truth" as an ironic nod to this, so he'd always be reminded of his deception. Jul 'Mdama is an Elite who tries to rally the remnants of the Covenant faithful under him post-war. He styles himself as a prophet and calls himself "The Didact's Hand" (the Didact being a Forerunner, whom the Covenant religion worshipped). However, Dr Halsey comes to learn that Jul himself is not a believer in the Covenant's religion. Dasc Gevadim is a cult leader who created the religion Triad, amassing followers and then retreating to a remote planet while his believers claimed he had "ascended". He later returned a decade later claiming to have "willed" himself back into the material world, and used the emergence of the Guardians and their curious effects on planets' local gravity to fake displaying telekinetic powers.

Divergent Character Evolution: Originally all Spartans wore identical Mjolnir armor, with it noted that Dr. Halsey knew who each Spartan was on body language alone. The first two games had only color options for their character based on the Master Chief design for the game, but for Character Customization purposes Halo 3 was the first to offer helmet, shoulder and chest piece variations. For a time the Mark IV armor remained identical but Halo: Reach started a trend of Mark V and VI and above were made with a wide variety of personalized options, both for the In-Universe Spartans and for player preferences, and eventually even Mark IV could see some modifications. Lastly, it also became commonplace for the Spartan II's to have their numerical tag included on the armor, including Master Chief's 117.

Unexplained Recovery: When Johnson shows up in Halo 2, a Marine asks him how he got off Halo alive (the player saw him being overrun by Flood on video, and even if he lived the Halo exploded soon after.) His response? "That's classified." The actual answer is a major subplot in Halo: First Strike and in The Halo Graphic Novel; he's immune to the Flood as a side effect of his Spartan-I augmentations, which have been covered up as a fictional disease called "Boren's Syndrome". As for getting off of Halo, he flew off with a Pelican and regrouped with Chief to steal a Covenant starship.

Artistic License – Space
 Halo (Franchise) / int_e6558beb
comment
Artistic License – Space: Harvest, one of the most remote Human colonies, and the site of first contact with the Covenant, orbits the star Epsilon Indi and is about 12 light-years away from Earth. Reach, the "Second Military Capital" of the UNSC and "gatekeeper" to Earth's doorstep, orbits the star Epsilon Eridani at about 10.5 light-years away, making it closer to Harvest than it is to Earth. In addition, the UNSC has, by the time of First Contact, settled around 800 other colony worlds, yet they had never encountered the Kig-Yar, whose home system is only about 41 light years from our own. This was later semi-rectified by establishing that "remoteness" in the Haloverse is measured in how long it takes to get to a location through slipspace, which does not always correspond to the "topography" of real space; while Harvest is physically almost as close to Earth as Reach is, a Harvest-Earth trip is much longer than a Reach-Earth one if one is using FTL drives, thanks to the wonkiness of slipspace.

The Battlestar: Any ship that figures into the main plot, such as the Pillar of Autumn, the In Amber Clad, or the Forward Unto Dawn. In Halo 3, the Separatist vessel Shadow of Intent takes the place of the Rebel Basestar. In Halo 4, we get the massive Infinity, which was originally constructed to be a last bastion of humanity should Earth fall, and is capable of launching entire flotillas of frigates from its internal bays. The Mantle's Approach puts all other ships seen so far to utter and complete shame, being the former flagship for the greatest navy ever built. It's so large it needs its own teleportation grid, being 230 miles at its longest, and it's crewed by a total of one man.

You Are Number 6: True to a certain extent with all Spartans, who are given numeric designations.

The Starscream: Halo 2 and most of the Expanded Universe stories since then have indicated that Regret was this with regards to Truth.

Then the Chief punched Regret to death, because Truth didn't bother sending reinforcements to aid his fellow Prophet.

Humans Need Aliens
 Halo (Franchise) / int_f3dd102d
comment
Humans Need Aliens: Humanity can only guarantee Pyrrhic victories at best against the Covenant, until circumstances cause the Elites to secede and ally with humanity. With their union the Covenant is defeated, but humanity rushes to rebuild itself quickly, because there is little guarantee that the Elites can protect them forever, especially since not all agreed with allying with humans in the first place. Inverted in the backstory. In prehistory humanity had an interstellar empire that beat back the Flood. They then tangled with the Forerunners and were forcibly devolved, only for the Forerunners to encounter the Flood and discover that without the humans, they were screwed.

Capital Letters Are Magic: Standard formula for a Halo enemy, faction or MacGuffin; capitalise a regular English word. The Covenant, Halo, The Flood, The Librarian, The Index, The Arbiter, The Great Journey, The Ark, The Didact, The Composer...

Enemy Civil War: The Covenant Civil War in Halo 2: Elites, Hunters and Grunts versus Brutes, Jackals and Drones. Beforehand, there was the Heretic uprising, with Spec-Ops Grunts, Elites and the Arbiter eradicating the defectee Grunts and Elites.

Motherly Scientist
 Halo (Franchise) / int_f59bfc23
comment
Motherly Scientist: Zigzagged with Dr. Catherine Halsey. She was very much of a mother figure towards the Spartan-II children and this maternal influence is believed to be a major contributor to the emotional stability of the Spartan-IIs compared to the Spartan-IIIs. This is even directly discussed in easily missed side-dialogue in Halo 5. But at the same time, she was only their "mother" because she had them kidnapped from their real families, put them through Training from Hell and administered the augmentations that killed or permanently disabled most of them, and was a rather lousy mother to her actual daughter, Miranda. Whether the pros outweigh the cons is a matter of some debate in-universe.

Cosmic Deadline
 Halo (Franchise) / int_f5c3defd
comment
Cosmic Deadline: It's All There in the Manual, but the UNSC-Covenant war drags on from 2525 to 2552, with the campaign over Harvest alone taking at least six years. The UNSC is constantly said to be on the road to defeat from Day One, losing colony after colony to the Covenant for a full 27 years, with the Spartans being in active service basically the entire time. Everything hits the fan at a breakneck pace right at the end though, within the span of July to December 2552 (just six months): July 2552: Keyes becomes a captain at the Battle of Sigma Octanus. August-September 2552: Reach falls, the Autumn discovers the first Halo, and the events of Halo: First Strike take place. October-November 2552: The Covenant invade Earth, enter a civil war, and fight to secure Installation 05. December 2552: The Covenant loyalists try to take over the Ark. The Prophets get killed, the Gravemind and its forces get destroyed, and the war ends.

Video Game Cruelty Potential
 Halo (Franchise) / int_f87c42d4
comment
Video Game Cruelty Potential: Plasma Grenade + Grunts = Hilarity Ensues. Also more hilarious if they run into their allies, making them a suicide bomber. "OH NO! NOT AGAIN!" *boom* And you can shoot specific limbs on the grunts. Watch them slowly try to limp away... The effect of the "Grunt Birthday Party" skull, which causes confetti to pop out of a Grunt's head upon scoring a headshot, accompanied by the sound of small children shouting "Hooray!" Bungie confirmed it to be a shout out to Viva Piñata, even mentioning that the Viva Piñata team sent them the actual audio file used in the game. The Master Chief Collection takes it even further with the "Grunt Funeral" skull (available only in Halo 1 & 2), which makes dead Grunts explode like grenades shortly after the body stops moving. This basically turns the poor Grunts into walking explosive barrels. Unlike grenades, other enemies won't move away from Grunt corpses, either. And Grunt corpse explosions are also doubled in size and power by the "Boom" skull. Combine with "Grunt Birthday Party" for maximum hiliarity. Just try to avoid blowing yourself up in the process.

Suicidal Overconfidence
 Halo (Franchise) / int_f97ab6a5
comment
Suicidal Overconfidence: Brutes, true to their name, are programmed with highly aggressive AI that usually causes them to charge their enemies directly. In some games, they're tanky enough that this makes them a terror, but in others where their health was nerfed, it makes them easy shotgun fodder. Averted with the Grunts, who will commonly break ranks and flee if you kill their more powerful allies. But sometimes in Halo 3 and beyond, they will get desperate and grab two plasma grenades, prime them, and charge at you screaming at the top of their lungs.

Shoo Out the Clowns: In Halo:CE and Halo 3, you are usually accompanied by UNSC Marines that lighten the mood with their chatter. Near the end of both games, when the Flood spreads and main characters begin to die, they are absent.

In Halo: Reach, Jorge has a sacrifice when he manually detonates a "slipspace bomb" to destroy a Covenant supercarrier. Carter has a sacrifice when he flies a Pelican into a Scarab to save Emile and Six. The player has a sacrifice when s/he stays behind on Reach to cover the Pillar of Autumn's escape, which s/he only has to do in the first place because Emile is killed just before attempting to do the same thing. Reach is basically made of Heroic Sacrifice.
