Ichika-B153

Warrant Officer Ichika-B153 (born Ichika Tsunoda) was a SPARTAN-III commando who served in the UNSC’s Office of Naval Intelligence, formerly serving as part of Beta Company. Born on the colony of Ryou II, he volunteered for the SPARTAN-III out of necessity for his survival and ended up graduating as one of the company’s top sharpshooters in 2545, with his skills being considered too promising to be wasted on suicide missions. He, along with a close teammate, were reassigned and placed under the command of the Office of Naval Intelligence, going to serve in their Asymmetrical Action Group. 
Ichika would serve as the STA specialist of Strike Team CROW, deploying on numerous covert operations and campaigns throughout the Human-Covenant War. Though he often spoke little, he took his job very seriously and prioritized completing objectives more than anything else, leading to some disagreements in the field. Despite this, he eventually came around during the Fall of Reach, the same battle where he would meet his end; his position struck dead-on by a Seraph, offering to be a distraction as David led civilians to safety. This incident would go on to have a profound effect on his teammate, with Ichika’s death leaving him as CROW’s only survivor.

=== Early Life ===
Born on the outer colony of Ryou II, Ichika was an orphan from the very beginning due to the colony's unfortunate establishing, often causing mischief on the streets of his small town and thieving goods in order to get by. He used to pelt rocks and birds for fun, alongside other street rats who he saw as brothers. The small group of kids lived by their own rules and no one else's. In 2537, a Covenant reconnaissance force was discovered by UNSC forces and since the young colony was very poorly equipped to fight, they feared that they would be unable to defend the planet and evacuated it as a whole. 
Ichika ended up in another rundown colony, without any friends or family, and found himself alone. Suffering without anyone to care for him, he pinned his grievances on the supposed "Covenant" which caused all of this, using them as the reason for their separation. This would culminate when these grievances reached the ears of the Office of Naval Intelligence, who found him and offered him a new purpose. Without anyone else in his life to turn to, he accepted with hopes of making something out of this opportunity.
