[[folder: [=SSgt=]. Marcus Banks]]
!!'''Staff Sergeant Marcus Banks'''

* TheCameo: Appears in one level of Halo 3, but his presence is so insignificant compared to other Marines such as [[TheLancer Johnson]], [[RecurringExtra Stacker, or Dubbo]], the player is unlikely to notice.

* PlayerCharacter: You play as him in two levels in ''VideoGame/Halo3ODST''.

* BaldOfAwesome: Doesn't get much more awesome in setting than [[spoiler: an unaugmented human facing down an Arbiter and ''winning.'']]

--> '''(Arbiter):''' ''We must go, the Brutes have our scent...''

!!'''Lance Corporal Jonathan Doherty "The Rookie"''' (11282-31220-JD)

The unnamed and faceless protagonist of ''VideoGame/Halo3ODST''. Although he is an experienced ODST, he is referred to as "The Rookie" by Alpha-Nine since he just transferred in after his previous unit was almost completely wiped out at the battle of New Jerusalem.

[[folder: [=LCpl=]. J.D.]]
!!'''Lance Corporal J.D. "The Rookie"''' (11282-31220-JD)

* NoNameGiven: Except for his initials "J.D.", which are found at the end of his service number.

* ADayInTheLimelight: He and his squad were the focus of the short film "Another Day At The Beach", made from a cutscene that was cut out of ''Halo 2''.

* BadassNormal: He survived Reach, Halo (two of them!), Earth, and the Ark, although how he survived [[VideoGame/HaloCombatEvolved the first Halo]] is yet to be explained. And somehow he was on both [[VideoGame/{{Halo 2}} Installation 05]] and [[VideoGame/Halo3ODST New Mombasa]] ''at the same time''. And now [[{{VideoGame/Halo 4}} he's survived the events on Requiem!]]

* AwesomeAussie: Given what he's survived, for sure.

* BadassBoast: Many.
* BadassNormal: Survived two Halos and the Ark.

** UnknownRival: It's really more of an ODST thing than a Spartan thing.

* GloryHound: Not for himself (mostly), but for his branch of the military. He is so determined to make sure the [=ODSTs=] are the forefront of the UNSC, he was willing to bring back samples of [[WhatAnIdiot Flood infected Marines to Earth for study]] in a captured Covenant battlecrusier, despite the protests of his second-in-command and his AI. Just to drive this home, he begins writing his victory speech before the ship is even fully secured.

A marine John-117 met during the Battle of Mombasa.

* ColdBloodedTorture: Whatever the Harbinger did to him, even Chak 'Lok was taken aback by the consequences.

->'''Debuted in: ''Literature/HaloEvolutions Palace Hotel'''''

* SmarterThanYouLook: Despite a tendency to talk himself up like a stereotypical jarhead, Chips rather impressively came up with an accurate interpretation of [[ChildSoldiers ONI’s involvement]] in the Master Chief’s life simply by fighting alongside him. Mind you, he comes as close as realistically possible to talking about a state secret that could get him abducted or killed for knowing.
