SPARTAN-B013

SPARTAN-B013, Tobias, is a member of Fire Team Vilya, one of the teams in Squad Silver.
==Appearance==
Tobias has short, untidy hair and has been described as "cute" by several female comrades. He is one of the thinnest and scrawniest of the SPARTANs, and has been the subject of considerable teasing because of it.
==Mental Report==
Tobias is mentally stable, with no mental illnesses to speak of. However, he is very shy and antisocial, and were it not for his close friendship with SPARTAN-B012 he would likely not have any friends at all. He and 012, better known as Samuel, have established a remarkable report, considering that they have conflicting personalities. Tobias prefers to let others do the talking and enjoys reading, with a preference for fiction. He is a solid vegetarian, and usually gives any meat he receives in his food to Samuel.
==Preferred Weapons==
Tobias serves as his team's secondary long ranged fighter and uses a Battle Rifle 09 Scoped Rifle in combat.
==Strengths==
As stated above, Tobias is a skilled long-to-mid-ranged fighter. He is also quiet and submissive, and will generally obey any order without question. He is the fastest SPARTAN in Squad Silver and is usually relied on to run for extra supplies or ammunition, or to draw out snipers.
==Weaknesses==
Tobias is absolutely terrified of heights and hates flying. His antisocial nature makes it difficult to work with others outside of his fire team, and he lacks much of the promise displayed by other members of the squad.
==History==
Like all of the other S-IVs, Tobias was taken from his family when he was six and was inducted into the SPARTAN program. He quickly developed into a shy, lonely child who had problems adjusting to the training regime. As his trainers considered washing him out of the program, Tobias was approached and befriended by Samuel-B012, a partnership that seemed highly unlikely. While Tobias was quiet and submissive, Samuel was aggressive and bloodthirsty. Nevertheless, the two of them became solid friends, and Tobias managed to pull through and remain in the program. When the SPARTANs were divided into companies, platoons, squads, and teams, he was delighted to be placed with Samuel in Fire Team Vilya. He worked even harder after this and became skilled in long ranged combat, though he never surpassed SPARTAN-B020, who became Vilya's designated marksman.
