John-A222 (Reborn)

Were you looking for the original Trost incarnation of John-A222?

"He looked up. The Commander was there, rifle drawn. Firing at machines, yelling into the comms. He saw the Knight coming long before the Commander. He screamed his name and drew his pistol. The Commander looked at him right as the blade came down."

John-A222 was a SPARTAN-II super-soldier stationed in the Delta-Forti system. Minimal information is known, besides his SPARTAN team, known as NOVA Team, and their position in Delta Forti. During the Created assault on Delta Forti, John was defending a crashed Pelican which contained various survivors from the attack, though was overwhelmed and killed by a Knight. One of the crash survivors, Marc Bedragare, witnessed the blow, and it stuck with him for months.

Beyond this, it was known that John-A222 and NOVA Team were present for the Fall of Reach.

Trivia

 * This incarnation of John-A222 is exclusive to the reboot timeline of Reborn, which takes place in a heavily crippled Delta Forti system after a Created assault in late 2558 and in its setting of 2559 is being invaded by Banished forces. While John in the original settings was always a quintessential appearance representative of HURP, it was decided in Reborn that to drive home the desperate UNSC situation and loose command structure, to have John-A222 dead at the start of the story.
