'''Catherine Elizabeth Halsey, MD, PhD''', ([[Civilian]] Consultant 69) was a praised scientist and cumslut for of the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]], best known as the creator of the [[SPARTAN-II Program]] and [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor]], as well as being known for being a whore, having banged every single SPARTAN to be made. Despite being a whore, she held considerable authority within ONI and commanded considerable respect from many military figures (mainly beacuse she gave really good blowjobs).
'''''Halo: First Strike''''', page 123
As she grew older, Halsey began to feel guilt for condemning her SPARTANs to a life of warfare which took their lives, and took extreme measures to protect her remaining Spartans, so started to work in a kitchen, like women should.

'''''Halo: First Strike''''', page 123
As she grew older, Halsey began to feel guilt for condemning her SPARTANs to a life of warfare which took their lives, and took extreme measures to protect her remaining Spartans, even going against the military law to do so - a choice which would result in her eventual arrest by ONI in 2553.

Catherine Elizabeth Halsey was born on Uranus on [[2492|March 19th, 2492]]. Not much was known about her early life, but what little was known gave a glimpse of what would be a promising career as a whore, having banged her father and brothers before she was 13. In her own words, she was ''"...sluttier than her parents, always reading, talking, learning, and eager to fuck anyone."''
'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', ''page 235''
By 2507, at the age of 15, Dr. Halsey was already pregnant, but aborted the baby for lulz.
'''Halo: First Strike''', page 128
It is also known that at some time in her early life, she supervised the creation of the template for third-generation [["Smart" AI]]s.
She was [[Vice Admiral]] [[Ysionris Jeromi]]'s star pupil as well.
'''Halo: The Fall of Reach''', ''page 57''
In August [[2510]], Halsey purchased a small, hardback journal in a shop on [[Reach]], near the base she was stationed in. Halsey used the journal as a medium through which to express her thoughts and concerns as well as sexual exploits, and would do so for another forty-two years, until she abandoned it during her escape from [[Sword Base]]. The journal was later recovered by ONI in [[2553]], and was designated top secret.

Catherine Elizabeth Halsey was born on Endymion on [[2492|March 19th, 2492]]. Not much was known about her early life, but what little was known gave a glimpse of what would be a promising career. In her own words, she was ''"...smarter than her parents, always reading, talking, learning, and eager to share her knowledge with anyone who would listen."''
'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', ''page 235''
By 2507, at the age of 15, Dr. Halsey was already writing her second Doctoral Thesis paper, in which she discussed archaic line commands.

During their survey travels for the Spartan-II candidates, Halsey grew attached to [[Jacob Keyes]]. The two were involved in a romantic relationship in the early 2520s, and in [[2525]], Halsey gave birth to [[Miranda Keyes|Miranda]] (her 9th pregnancy) and raised her for a few years, when on July 12, 2531, Miranda's father agreed to take her in, raising her on [[Luna]]. Halsey would later have a falling-out with Miranda, after stealing her boyfriend and fucking him hard. Miranda later changed her legal name to her father's and refused to speak to Halsey for several years.

Little is given in the terms of social activities or even a list of friends. Her intelligence is unquestionable as well as the loyalty and respect she receives from the majority of her comrades and her Spartans. However, as seen in ''Halo: First Strike'', her judgment is not always correct, although bearing the guilt of the Spartan program, her sense of right and wrong has differed greatly. It is obvious that she truly cares about her Spartans. She has a notable fondness for classical music, especially [[Wikipedia:Debussy|Debussy]], and often asks nearby AIs to play select pieces as she works.

What can be gleaned is that she preferred the company of AIs, and, although she may be angered easily at being mentally defeated, always appreciates the simplicity of them. None more than [[Cortana]], who was actually created from a flash clone of her own brain.

She is well-versed in sexual knowledge, spending much time studyinng works such as the Karma Sutra.

===Guilt===
+
Dr. Halsey carried extraordinary guilt because of the [[SPARTAN-II Program|SPARTAN-II project]], feeling that she had exploited the children and destroyed their lives, a feeling which was later passed to [[Cortana]]. Though she continued to support the Spartans and gained monumental prestige for her efforts, she also felt responsible for each one who died. She never could quite justify their exploitation as a "necessary sacrifice." She also had considerable respect for the Spartans, and addressed them by their first names (even with their armor on), which seemed to greatly annoy them.
'''Halo: First Strike''', pages 120-121
+
+
Her feelings of guilt were made evident by the fact that she often referred mentally to "sacrificing the few to save the many," though this rarely worked to soothe her conscience. By the time she was rescued from Reach by the ''Ascendant Justice'', she simply wanted to save as many lives as she could, believing that the [[Human-Covenant war|war]] was not one that the UNSC could possibly win. While she knew that her own Spartans, the [[SPARTAN-II Program|SPARTAN-IIs]], couldn't be persuaded to turn from the war, she believed the SPARTAN-IIIs may not yet have been fully determined to win the war, and she set out to try and weaken their resolve to fight. When she was arrested Halsey allowed herself to be taken without any resistance due to her guilt.

Halo 4's prologue reveals that although Dr. Halsey carries the guilt of the SPARTAN-II project, she also sees them as the "next step" in the destiny of the human race.

Halsey also had somewhat of a unique relationship with [[John-117]], having had sex with him multiple times. Some of this may stem from him being the first subject she observed, but she had a great fondness for him and he was her favorite Spartan. Halsey told Cortana she considers him the luckiest and best of the Spartans and also apparently finds him attractive given her reaction to Cortana's comments on that. Halsey was responsible for John's first promotion to Squad Leader as a result of her acknowledging his leadership skills and suggesting it to Mendez. Halsey also had John's full trust and he always did his best to never undermine her authority.

Halsey decided to test her favorite SPARTAN's sense of ethics by handing over data concerning [[Avery Junior Johnson|Avery Johnson]] and how his [[Boren's Syndrome]] made him immune to the [[Flood]]. She knew that if the data was handed over to ONI, Johnson would likely be killed and dissected in order to find a cure to the Flood infection. She estimated that there is a billion to one shot that they could have replicated Johnson's condition, but conversely ONI would do it to save Humanity from a greater foe.
'''Halo: First Strike''', pages 242-246
At first, John chose to sacrifice Johnson in order to try and save millions of people out of his duty to protect all of Humanity. However, John reconsidered and eventually destroyed the data due in part to the sacrifice of [[Vice Admiral]] [[Danforth Whitcomb]] and [[Lieutenant (UNSC)|Lieutenant]] [[Elias Haverson]],
'''Halo: First Strike''', pages 329-336
believing that one man could make a difference as opposed to sacrificing him for the greater good.
