Nathan B185

Spartan Nathan B185, born Nathan Anderson, is a SPARTAN-III supersoldier of Beta Company and one of few survivors from Beta Company who saw incorporation into the Headhunter program in 2545 after a failed operation to assassinate Shipmaster Rhul 'Salmutee of the Covenant. Nathan served with the Headhunters until late 2552, when he was reassigned to special ONI Expedition Teams as a security officer. Nathan was once again reassigned to the UNSC Octavius in 2557 following the rise of Jul 'Mdama's Covenant. After the Created Conflict began, Nathan's current whereabouts are unknown.
== Biography ==
=== Early Life ===
Born in 2531, Nathan lived in the far-off colony world of Chi Rho with his family of three: his Mother, Father, and himself. His childhood was short-lived as, in 2535, the Covenant attacked the colony. During the brutal attack on the UNSC colony, his Mother and Father attempted to bring him to the safety of a UNSC evacuation transport. Still, they were intercepted and killed by Elites trying to shield Nathan from the crossfire. After witnessing the slaughter, Nathan attempted to run before ODST Team Saber saved him from the Elite Striketeam. Realizing the transport ship was all but lost and that his family was gone, they relocated him to a local UNSC-operated bunker. Though the commander of the UNSC forces on the planet devised a strategy to ensure the Covenant had to fight them “man-to-man” on its surface, the planet would fall to the Covenant armada. ODST Team Saber rendezvoused with the bunker personnel and the assortment of civilians seeking haven within the confines of its walls. The ODST team arranged a small Pelican transport to take as many women and children as possible, alongside themselves, off-world. Nathan boarded that transport in the chaos of people attempting to get on and luckily made it off the burning surface of Chi Rho alive.
=== Enlistment and Training ===
Orphaned and alone, the UNSC noted this and offered him the opportunity to join the SPARTAN-III Program. He accepted the offer immediately because he promised to avenge his family and the world he witnessed burned to ash. He was shipped off to Camp Currahee to begin training with the Alpha Company of the Spartan III program in 2536, though due to an unfortunate tendon-related injury, his training was set back. Upon the deployment of Alpha Company and the terrifying aftermath of OPERATION: Prometheus, Nathan was transferred to Beta Company upon healing from his injury. Nathan was given the Beta Company Spartan designation “B185” and was assigned to Team Alpha, which consisted of three other Spartan III candidates: Shelley B055, Todd B100, and Davis B275.
