Top 6 Halo Figures from the UNSC

Halo is primarily a first-person game, and as such, the first person character is the most widely known. However, one man can’t do it all alone … especially when the enemy is numerous enough to populate hundreds of planets! Here we look at the story behind some of the other Halo figures … the ones that have been immortalized in plastic and paint, if not in Madame Tussaud's wax museum.

Master Chief

If you’re a Halo fan, you know the back of Master Chief's head well! The Covenant see him as a demon and fear him, and he is assisted by the artificial intelligence Cortana. Master Chief has been rated as one of the best video game characters of all time.

Avery Johnson

This human marine leads the traditional armies against the Covenant and Flood assaults. He is one of the few Marines that survived the destruction of Installation 04. Johnson comes to prominence in Halo 2.

Miranda Keyes

The daughter of Jacob Keyes, Miranda Keyes only appears in Halo 2 and 3. Miranda Keyes removes the Index and successfully stops Halo from firing, but then inadvertently causes all the other installations of Halo to enter standby mode, which allows them to be fired remotely. She also leads the pursuit of the Prophet of Truth in Halo 3.

Jacob Keyes

Jaco Keyes is a captian in the United Nations Space Command. He appears in Halo: Combat Evolved, and several of the novelisdations of the movies. He plays a pivotal role in saving millions of rebel's lives from the Covenant, and at one stage singlehandedly defeated four Covenant ships.

Cortana

Cortana is the Artifical Intelligence assisting Master Chief John 117. The nature of her programming means she will eventually think herself to death after less than a decade … a great pity! Her own determination and fearlessness are a great match for that of the main Halo figure … you!

Catherine Halsey

This human scientist appears in several novelizations, but is absent from the actual games. Her brain tissue is the basis for the construction of Cortana, and she was the creator of the Spartan II project.
