how Should I play this out considering that we think he survives the lone wolf mission
Maybe something like, after he survives he comes into contact the unsc, and he eventually gets to the point where he becomes a secret oni agent(because he was already a lone wolf assassin) and so the only reason why he’s classified and kia(mia cuz he’s a spartan) is because he’s out there doing some black ink, sketchy oni stuff. Idk, might sound lame but I think him making it into Oni makes sense since like I said, he was already a classified living anonymous assassin

Canonically he is dead, Noble Six did not survive Reach.
You could disregard canon for your own story though - start from that scene and make it in your book that he did survive, how the managed it and what he did in the aftermath

Aye: if you wanted something which potentially could be canon (not that much fan-made will ever be though) then your better bet would be one of the redacted periods of the service record.

This. Noble 6 died on Reach. It is canon and you cannot change that fact (just like all the other people that want non-AI characters that died very clear and obvious deaths to come back) because of how much you like them. Also do not speak for everyone, unless you were using a ‘royal we’ to refer to yourself or if there is more than one person using your account.
If you want to write FANFICTION (which is what you will be writing, given that you are most likely not a recognized author and that you cannot write and otherwise publish a book about Halo without permission from Microsoft and 343Industries which own the Halo IP, then by all means write a story that takes place in a non-canon alternate reality in which Noble 6 somehow survives.
Do it! Too bad the creative writing badge isn’t a thing anymore. But for real a book dedicated to Noble team needs to really be in production
If I were to write a book about Noble 6, I’d want to write it about Nobel 6 becoming a Spartan, maybe early childhood for a back story, his military career before Noble team, and then his experience with noble team towards the end. I would stick to cannon and just end it where we leave off in the game. Too many people get their -Yoink!- in a bunch when you start adding stuff that doesn’t belong. Who knows, if you do everything i mentioned it might become an actual book. You never know. Good luck and please keep us updated.
What is the obsession with Noble 6? I ask this with absolutely no disrespect, I’m just really curious as to why the character is so stuck in the minds of so many fans.

I think it’s because we see ourselves as Noble Six. Six could look like how we wanted him to look like, virtually placing us in the Halo Universe as him. Someone like Chief we can’t do that with because he’s an established person with his own personality and story, but Six was more of a clean slate to us than Chief. We are able to think that he’s kinda like us and make our own impressions of him. (When I say “us” I mean the individual who is playing the game). Also, he didn’t follow the traditional Spartan III path, he was picked from the rest of his peers and became ONI’s personal assassin, which offers so many different stories to tell before his joining of Noble Team and the Fall of Reach. For saying so little, he left so much.
There are two options you can do that are mentioned above:
- The book is about Noble Six surviving the Lone Wolf mission.
- The book is about Noble Six as ONI’s personal grim reaper, going on black ops missions against Insurrectionists and Covenant forces.
Here are a couple of my ideas for each story:
-
Six barely survives his encounter with Elite forces and seeks refuge. With heavy plasma burns and an almost depleted fusion core in his suit, Six finds shelter in a decommissioned Charon-Class Frigate in the Aszod ship-breaking yards. He finds medical supplies to treat his wounds in the ship, but with a damaged suit and an almost depleted fusion core, protection from enemy fire is low. The only place he can think to go is the military base that trained the Spartan II’s. It’s bound to have supplies. Throughout the next several weeks, Six makes his way to the base on low supplies and low ammo. Along the way, Six finds a Covenant outpost with a Phantom. He takes out the enemy forces and hijacks it, making his way to the base. He finally makes it to the base, surprised to see that it has not been glassed, probably because it holds high level ONI secrets that the Covenant wants, which means Zealots will be there. When he arrives, he stealthily makes his way into the base, avoiding combat as much as possible. He then finds an underground testing facility with prototype MK VI Mjolnir armor. Seeing that it’s his only option of survival, he puts it on and makes his way out, not before stealing Covenant plasma coils to blow the place to hell. As he is leaving, he overhears a transmission about a human ship that crashed landed on a Covenant relic, something about a ring. He safely makes his way out, and detonates the plasma coils, blowing up the lab and half of the base. With the new info about the crashed human ship, is next mission is to get off the planet and link up with any UNSC forces that he can find.
-
(This won’t be as long) Six has just been pulled from Beta Company and is now under the directive of SpecWarGroupThree, a subdivision of ONI Section Three. He is now going on missions to destabilize and assassinate Insurrectionists. On an assassination mission on a Outer Colony, Six has to kill a high ranking Indie Colonial. As he completes this, four Covenant CCS-Class Battlecruisers jump out of Slipspace into orbit. Now his main objective is to get off the planet in one piece. He fights his way through waves of Covenant ground forces, and makes his way to a UNSC ship about to leave the system. He makes it there on a Pelican and the ship makes a random jump into Slipspace, following the Cole Protocol. In the next couple of days, he links up with ONI at a classified base, and is shown prototype MK V armor with energy shielding, and hears more about Spartan II’s and their missions. (This story can give better insight into the development of the energy shielding technology). Now with his new MK V armor, he embarks on more high level, dangerous missions for ONI.
Thanks for reading if you got this far!

Whilst canonically he’s dead, but I actually wouldn’t mind a different side of the story if he ever did manage to survive, i’d definitely give it a read

You’re undoubtedly absolutely right in that being why he was such a good character, same with the Rookie. Just still always strikes me how many people are so keen to resurrect him in one way or another.
I Don’t see why not, as long as its a prequel

there are a lot of fans who think he survived that energy sword to the back , but what noble 6 are you talking about, the original now deceased on or noble 6 from reach

OP is talking about Noble 6 from Reach. It’s certainly possible he survived the elite attack, but still dead either way
