Who’s your favorite Halo character that is from or was introduced in a book, and why are they your favorite? If you wanna say multiple favorites or just a character you like that’s ok too.
The only one I can give a proper explanation for would be Kurt-051:
Obviously he led the Spartan-III program successfully which of course had some significant effects on how the war continued, he deeply cared about every single person he raised and trained despite the fact that they were meant to be expendable. I liked how he was more expressive and social like Kelly and of course his noble last sacrifice to make sure the Covenant wouldn’t be able to follow the group is an up too. Overall a pretty darn good character.
I actually really liked Bornstellar-Makes-Eternal-Lasting in his Manipular form, before he takes the imprint of the Didact. It’s refreshing to see a Forerunner with the carefree thrill seeking attitude of youth, versus the set in their ways 3rd forms and beyond that ran the entire civilization into cataclysm.
