== Biography ==
=== Early Life ===
Dalton was born to a pair of researchers on the planet of Vyraj with an older brother named Dimas in 2510. During his life on Vyraj he became friends with Emika Novák, often enjoying the countryside with his friends where they would play mock war. While living upon the world he was taught to value his Slavic heritage due to Vyraj being settled by Slavic settlers to get away from other cultures from old Earth. He would be singled out as a physically and mentally exceptional child by Dr. Catherine Halsey and in 2517 he would be abducted and replaced by a flash clone by the ONI for the SPARTAN-II Program.
=== SPARTAN Training ===
Dalton would wake up on the planet of Reach and on the first day of training, at Military Reservation 01478-B, divided in his team of three with them being his friend Emika and a fellow Vyraj colonist named Sagan. The reasoning for them being put together was a personal experiment by Dr. Halsey herself to see how effective a group of similar cultural backgrounds could be. 
During their first trip to "the playground" they were one of the first to complete the course. That initiated a bond and for the three and they would end up working well together.
An incident of their strong bond and unique similar languages giving them advantage was during a training fight with another group of Spartans. After running low on their training ammunition Dalton would come up with a plan to get eyes on the other team locations while one of them acted as decoy. Volunteering himself, he feign surrender to Jeremy-061's team. Claiming they were out of ammunition Dalton would give them confidence of their victory that caused Kyle-060 and Akeno-036 to come into the open. He would claim the others don't understand English well and would speak for his team to come out and surrender after ensuring they would not be hurt. With them buying the fake reasoning Dalton would communicated to Emika and Sagan in their similar languages to reveal the locations of their opponents and quickly Emika and Sagan worked around and eliminated Akeno and Kyle as Dalton subdued Jeremy in hand-to-hand combat. After the exercise Jeremy would approach him and while Dalton thought he was going to confront him for his dishonesty, he was genuinely shocked when he praised the ingenuity of the use his team's languages. This opened the door for a friendship for him but also his team. But not all agreed as he and Akeno would come into constant conflict in and out of combat exercises with one such fight resulting in a scar upon Dalton's face. During the training he would also work along and train against others such as Asa-024, Harris-032, and Matthew-121.
==== Augmentations ====
in 2525 Dalton underwent the SPARTAN-II augmentation procedures. He would survive the process and were among one of first to awaken where he waited neavously for the others. He would be overjoyed when both Emika and Sagan both emerged from the augmentation alive. But would soon be overshadowed when he learned from Jeremy and Asa that Akeno and Matthew didn't survive. He attended the military funeral on the UNSC Atlas for those Spartans who died during the augmentation process.
=== Insurrection ===
==== Operation: HUDDLE ====
In 2525 Dalton, Emika, and Sagan were given their first mission again insurrectionists in the system their homeworld of Vyraj. Named Operation: HUDDLE the objective of their mission was to gather information of a new insurrection group that was forming which has named itself "Kingdom". They would be deployed in a transport vessel bound to one of the moons of Vyraj where the insurrection cell was based out of. 
Dalton would send Sagan to to locate a suitable location to base the operation as he and Emika settled in among the dissidents of the small city the Kingdom had taken. Dalton would observe that while they seek to create a new Slavic kingdom they had easy division among themselves related to people's heritage that deemed themselves more worthy to lead such a kingdom than others, such as those that hail from Russian linage looking down upon those that hailed from lineages of the smaller Slavic counties. Dalton would regroup at a locate storehouse Sagan had secured and start to cataloged the team's findings over the next few days. Eventually Dalton and the others would locate the location the Kingdom used to house their leaders in a former Vyraj Colonial Militia complex. Dalton himself would infiltrate the complex with Emika at night to steal datafiles. He would remain on guard while Emika hacked the files about the higher ups of the rebel cell where they discovered it was governed by a council with a representative from each of the Old Earth Slavic counties, with an elected high leader simply referred to a 'King'. Dalton would cut the mission short when Sagan informed them about an unexpected patrol that was pulling up to the complex. Without incident they returned to the storehouse and went over the files before signaling for extraction. 
==== Operation: KING FALL ====
Dalton and the others would be debriefed by ONI after their return. With the combination of the files that were taken and the teams debriefing ONI would authorize the assassination of King with any other members of the council as a secondary objective. ONI determined that King himself made deals and blackmailed many to gain his position and settled on the fact with his termination it would cause a power vacuum to form. Dalton and the others would welcome Kyle-060 and Jeremy-061 to their team before being deployed. 
Once secure at the other storehouse Dalton would have the team steal uniforms from the youth brigade to aid them in blending in. He would split the team up and gave them tasks. Dalton and Jeremy infiltrated the vehicle depot to sabotage the rapid response vehicles. Managing without incident they would pull out and returned to the storehouse to regroup with the others to go over the information Emika and Kyle discovered. Dalton, with assistance from Sagan, formulated a plan to best sow disruption. They would then infiltrate the complex the next night when King would be having a secret meeting with two members of the council. Dalton ordered Sagan to provide over watch while he lead the others inside. After eliminating the minimal security they them breached King's office, quickly executing the three. He would then order Kyle and Jeremy to take the side arms from King and one of the councilors and set up the room to appear as if an altercation happened in which they appeared to have killed one another in a seemingly corruption of power due to the secret meeting. Dalton would order Jeremy and Kyle to fallback to Sagan's position as he and Emika went to security to ensure all evidence of them was erased. Once all video evidence was erased he would activate the complex's alarm to ensure the assassination was found as soon as possible. Due to the previous day's sabotage the response vehicles used to create blockades around the complex were delayed and gave Dalton and Emika time to regroup with the others. They would remain for another day to ensure infighting began before signaling for extraction.

In 2548 ONI discovered the possible location of Kyle, which was located at a Covenant data hub on a moon in the outer colonies, they would send White Team to investigate and destroy the data hub. White Team arrived in the system on board the UNSC Until The End and used stealth ablative coating that is was outfitted with to secretly land on the moon.
Dalton lead the recon team that consisted of Emika and Sagan. As they investigated the hub they got visual on Kyle and he would leave Sagan to keep an eye on the hub while he and Emika returned to the Until The End. Due to proto-shields surrounding the data hub they couldn't bomb the facility from the ship, with that Dalton and White Team took two D77-TC Pelicans, with one armed with a couple bombs, which was program with a timer that connects all of them, strong enough to destroy the data hub and heavy weapons. He devise a plan to have the Pelicans land at the hub with one team that would consist of Harris, Asa, and a small group of marines to place the bombs and arm them, while the second team that consist of himself Emika and Jeremy would track down Kyle before the pulled out. While Sagan provided cover fire from his position. 
On approach to the facility the Pelicans were attack by Type-52 Anti-Aircraft Artillery Wraiths. His Pelican took damage and made a landing close to Sagan and continued on to the hub. While on foot he saw the second Pelican crash land at the data hub and when they met up with Sagan they encountered Harris who told them Asa was still on the second Pelican. As they ran towards Asa's position he contacted him. As they closed in on his location Asa activated the bombs and destroyed the facility but not before a Covenant Type-52 troop carrier escaped with Kyle on board. 
He ordered White Team to the data hub to investigate. As they searched through the destruction they eliminated any surviving and wounded Covenant as well as extracting an information from the hubs. He would come across the remains of the Pelican, and Asa. He and his team would carry Asa back to their Pelican after they were finished. Dalton would then give Harris Asa's dogtags when they returned to the Until The End.

Dalton would put himself into cryosleep, entrusting his safety to Hades.
