[[folder: '''Character Affiliation Spoiler''']]

* FantasticRacism: Discussed and {{subverted}}. While Melody has good reason to despise the Covenant for what they did to humanity and to her home specifically, she has to remind herself that the Sangheili are no longer Covenant and that there are shades of grey in how different factions amongst the warrior race see humans, so seeing them under a blanket term of hate just isn't possible.

* CunningLinguist: She is able to speak Sangheili, despite a having completely different mouth structure (e.g. two jaws instead of four mandibles). She states she learned it while in Sangheili refugee camps.

!!!Gao

[[folder: Veta Lopis]]
!!'''Veta Lopis'''
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lopis.jpg]]
->'''Homeworld: Gao'''
->'''Birthdate: c. 2519-2523'''
->'''Debuted in: ''Literature/HaloLastLight'''''

A highly skilled and determined homicide detective from the Outer Colony of Gao with a strict personal code of justice. While she starts out with an intense dislike of the UNSC, after being betrayed by her former boss she ends up being hired by ONI as an investigator and handler for a Ferret team consisting of teenage [[Characters/HaloSpartanIIIProgram Gamma Company Spartan-IIIs]] Ash-G099, Olivia-G291, and Mark-G313.

An 800 pound man, Jonas is a butcher working in Old Mombasa who is giving away kebabs to passing refugees as they try to escape during the Covenant invasion.

* KarmicDeath: [[spoiler:Torn to shreds by the very civilians he had his men fire on.]]

An 800 pound man and local butcher who is giving away kebabs to passing refugees as they try to escape New Mombasa during the Covenant invasion.

An 800 pound man who is selling kebabs to passing refugees as they try to escape New Mombasa during the Covenant invasion.

* BadassBoast: To an irritated driver.

* BigFun: Though in the circumstances, that's not necessarily good.

* NiceGuy: He's just trying to help.

* HeroicSacrifice: "I am not worth five people."

* BadassNormal: A smaller-than-average baseline human who regularly hangs out with Spartans and somehow manages to keep up and even meaningfully contribute to the action.

* PrinciplesZealot: Her personal code can be very inflexible; when suspecting Mark-G313 of being the murdered, she was fully intent on taking him down despite being personally troubled by the implications of killing a teenager who could not have been held truly responsible due to the brain-altering mutagen he had been subjected to, even had he committed the murders.
* TeamMom: She rapidly develops a strong mother-like bond to the Gamma Company Spartans of Blue Team and can be highly protective of them. As a result the Gammas take to calling Veta "Mom", much to her chagrin; according to ''Retribution'' she prefers to see herself more as an older sister to them.

!!!Harvest

[[folder: Nils Thune]]
!!'''Governor Nils Thune'''
->'''Homeworld: Earth (Minnesota, United Republic of North America)'''
->'''Birthdate: Unknown'''
->'''Debuted in: ''Literature/HaloContactHarvest'''''

The Governor of Harvest in 2525, Nils was one of the first colonists to settle on the planet.

* BigFun: Usually cheerful and amiable, with the girth to match. His temper quickly frays once the Covenant make themselves known, though.
* FarmBoy: Grew up farming the old-fashioned way, without the horde of automatons standard on Harvest.
* HeadInTheSandManagement: Is initially somewhat reluctant to view the Covenant as an existential threat, but quickly realizes his mistake once the peace talks go south.
* LargeAndInCharge: Thune is a big and well-built man, with the strength to match, being capable of delivering a CrushingHandshake to Sergeant Johnson himself.
* ObstructiveBureaucrat: Once he hears about the Covenant, he refuses to request UNSC aid out of fear that Harvest's people will riot in response. Later, he's so maddened by al-Cygni's and Loki's changes to the evacuation plans that he refuses to relinquish military command to al-Cygni, [[spoiler:forcing her to knock Thune out with stun rounds]].

* MysteriousPast: Not even the UNSC knows his precise origins. All that's known is that he's at least nine years old, making him positively ancient by Smart AI standards.
* OccupiersOutOfOurCountry: Is public with his Insurrectionist sympathies, to the point where he has publicly supported several attacks on UNSC bases. That said, the UNSC was unable to pin any direct responsibility for said attacks on him.

[[folder: Sloan]]
!!'''Governor Sloan (SLN 0291-5)'''
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sloan.jpg]]
->'''Creation date: Unknown'''
->'''Voiced by: Creator/GideonEmery'''

A Smart AI of mysterious origin who governs the independent colony of Meridian as an administrator of the Liang Dortmund Corporation, leading deglassing operations in their stead.

* AIIsACrapshoot: Is openly rampant by 2558, making many of the Meridian colonists nervous, though he still seems to have their best interests at heart. [[spoiler:Plays this completely straight when it's revealed he's in cahoots with Cortana's galactic domination plans.]]
* ArmsDealer: Is known to have smuggled equipment to various Insurrectionist groups on multiple occasions.
* BenevolentBoss: He may technically be a corporate AI, but he does value the lives of the Liang Dortmund employees he oversees, doing his part to save as many as possible during the Promethean invasion. [[spoiler:Until Cortana awakens Meridian's Guardian, after which he abandons his people before they've finished evacuating, though to be fair, he waits until ''after'' most of the evac shuttles have already taken off before he leaves his employees.]]
* BunnyEarsLawyer: A rampant AI who's nonetheless respected as an effective governor; there's a reason why Meridian's colonists actually elected him as leader for two straight consecutive four-year terms. As one resident puts it:
-->'''Joyce Leblanc:''' I don't get the guys who spend all day worrying about Governor Sloan. You can't deny he does a hell of job. Sure, he does that thing where he talks with two voices sometimes, but most folk do the same thing. Just aren't courteous enough to do it out loud. Doesn't bother me. I know he's got Meridian's best interests at heart.
* ElectronicSpeechImpediment: One of the main symptoms of his rampancy.
* GutturalGrowler: In sharp contrast to the smooth tones of other [=AIs=] in the franchise, giving him the impression of being a rough frontiersman like most of his employees.
* {{Hypocrite}}: Despite being a full-blown Insurrectionist sympathizer, [[spoiler:he's perfectly happy to join Cortana in creating an oppressive AI-ruled galactic empire. To make things worse, he seems to have done so primarily because Cortana promised him a cure to his rampancy]].
* ImStandingRightHere: Granted, it's pretty much unavoidable given that [[BigBrotherIsWatching he's watching Fireteam Osiris from everywhere]] (since he is an ArtificialIntelligence), but he does call them out on the fact that they are talking about his [[AIIsACrapshoot emergent rampancy]].
-->'''Sloan:''' I have welcomed you to my home. Do not be so rude as to make my health a point of conversation.
* LargeAndInCharge: Unlike most [=AIs=], his holographic avatar at Meridian Station is giant-sized.
* MysteriousPast: Not even the UNSC knows his precise origins. All that's known is that he's at least nine years old, making him positively ancient by Smart AI standards.
* OccupiersOutOfOurCountry: Is public with his Insurrectionist sympathies, to the point where he has publicly supported several attacks on UNSC bases. That said, the UNSC was unable to pin any direct responsibility for said attacks on him.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: After Fireteam Osiris proves their worth by helping to save his colonists, he agrees to help them in their search for Blue Team, and tells his people to treat them with respect. [[spoiler:Subverted when it turns out that he already knew where Blue Team was.]]
* RoboticReveal: Osiris is completely unaware that he's an AI until they see his avatar.
* {{Turncoat}}: [[spoiler:Joined Cortana's side sometime before the start of ''VideoGame/Halo5Guardians''.]]

[[folder: Sadie Endesha]]
!!'''Sadie Endesha'''
->'''Homeworld: Earth (New Mombasa, Kenya, East African Protectorate)'''
->'''Birthdate: c. 2533'''
->'''Voiced by: Masasa Moyo'''

TheProtagonist of ''[[VideoGame/Halo3ODST Sadie's Story]]'', Sadie is a denizen of New Mombasa and daughter of one of the scientists responsible for managing its Superintendent AI.

[[folder: Arris Le]]
!!'''Arris Le'''
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arris.jpg]]
->'''Homeworld: Aleria'''

->'''Portrayed by: Alexis Rodney'''

Having realized from a young age that mining was a dead-end industry on Aleria, Arris instead became a smuggler for a number of "courier guilds" in the hopes that he could pay off the debts plaguing his family. After the collapse of the Mols'Desias mining union, he would find himself recruiting other desperate Alerians, like Haisal Wari, to help him in various smuggling jobs.

* DistressedDude: Is a captive for most of his screentime in ''Film/HaloNightfall'', [[spoiler:and is taken hostage by Horrigan and Ramos when they mutiny, due to them needing Arris to activate his tug's biometric scanner in order for it to take off. He manages to nearly escape at the end, but is shot dead right after he activates his tug]].
* CharacterDeath: [[spoiler:Shot by Horrigan right before he’s about to take off on his ship.]]
* TheCynic: Understandably so; when Haisal asks him in "Indebted Travelers" what he thinks Aleria would be like without the drought, he replies:
-->'''Arris:''' Those empowered buy up the land. Our problems would just have a new face.
* TheGamblingAddict: Not a straight example, but Locke points out that he's a gambler at heart, and takes advantage of it to get him to cooperate with his ONI squad and the Sedrans, in exchange for being allowed to take part in DrawingStraws when the time comes to determine who gets to leave the Alpha Shard.
* HadToBeSharp: His low-tech smuggling work gave him the ability to fully function in low oxygen environments without any breathing packs.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: Seems to have been this with Haisal, if his reaction after [[spoiler:the latter's death]] is any indication.
* JustifiedCriminal: His smuggling is partly responsible for the bioattack on Sedra City, but he only got involved because he needed to pay off his family's debts.
* NonActionGuy: Naturally, given that he’s only a civilian.
* RedOniBlueOni: A mild example with Haisal; he's willing to act cooperatively with his captors when it's to his advantage, while Haisal makes no secret of his scorn for them. This reflects Arris being a much more experienced smuggler than Haisal.

[[folder: Haisal Wari]]
!!'''Haisal Wari'''
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/haisal.jpg]]
->'''Homeworld: Aleria'''
->'''Birthdate: Unknown'''
->'''Portrayed by: Eric Kofi-Abrefa'''

Finding himself in desperate straits after the collapse of mining union Mols'Desias, Haisal became a smuggler for various "courier guilds", eventually making the acquaintance of fellow Alerian Arris Le.

* DistressedDude: Is captured for most of his screentime in ''Film/HaloNightfall''.
* EatenAlive: [[spoiler:Horrigan feds him to the Thanolekgolo to buy time for everyone else to escape.]]
* HadToBeSharp: His low-tech smuggling work made him capable of fully functioning in thin atmospheres without needing an oxygen pack; he's scornful of his captors for needing technology to breath properly on the Alpha Shard.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: Seems to have been this with Arris, considering the latter's reaction to [[spoiler:Haisal's death]].
* JustifiedCriminal: His smuggling helped create the bioweapon that ravaged Sedra City, but he only got involved because he was unable to find other work after Mols'Desias collapsed.
* NonActionGuy: Unlike most of ''Nighfall'''s cast, he’s only a civilian.
* RedOniBlueOni: A mild example with Arris; he's openly scornful of his captors the entire time, while Arris is willing to act cooperatively with them if it benefits him. This reflects Haisal being a much less experienced smuggler than Arris.
