RU-254

== History ==
Robotized Unit-254, also known as RU-254, and legally known as Ackley Lucas Fredrickson, was a genetically and mechanically modified human being from Luna, Earth's Moon. During his early years, Ackley underwent large amounts of biological augmentation through a top-secret testing operation conducted by the Office of Naval Intelligence. These test, which were conducted by an isolated branch of ONI called the Universal Institute of Mechanically Modified Humans (UIMMH), were examining the effects of the human body when connected to a vast amount of robotic equipment. Although extreme amounts of pain were inflicted upon the test subjects that were used, the product was outstanding. He, out of 42 other experimental humans, was one of the few who managed to emerge strong and perfectly modified, allowing him to be a necessity while on the battlefield. Unlike other traditional Spartans, all softwares, medical diagnostics and Heads-Up-Display systems were implanted and attached to the user's body, rather than the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor itself. As cyborgs, the Robotized Units proved to be far more efficient during deadly battles, especially when the UNSC acknowledged normal humans were at a higher risk. Due to the fact that their limbs and robotic attachments could be replaced, they were used for dangerous operations. However, Robotized Units would suffer permanent deactivation if the main and secondary power supplies connected to the brain or heart were cut off or fully destroyed. If such a case occurs where the secondary power supply is still functioning, the Robotized Unit will remain in stasis (similar to a coma) and must acquire immediate medical and mechanical attention to repair the main power supply. Following the replacement of the main power supply, the Robotized Unit must remain in stasis for one week as the systems and health diagnostics reset to their original state. Unfortunately, robotic attachment replacements, most importantly the power supplies, generally escalated to very high prices, but with the limited amount of Robotized Units that passed the certification testing, currency was not a main concern to ONI. After Ackley transcended the augmentation portion of his production, he endured a variety of different training exercises against different types of units in the United Nations Space Command, which allowed him to adapt and develop the necessities for specific types of combat that may appear during his military career. Within 6 months of training, he was ready to plant his feet into the battlefield.
