I haven’t seen one of these threads in some time. (Given I took a month-long hiatus). So…Let’s start one up! 
My team of four. From hell and back.
Out on recon, we got overrun.
Held our base, from Covenant attack.
Regiment destroyed. Saved by a legend.
I first witnessed a beast, of mighty figure.
A glowing green arm, and a real bad temper.
Who am I?
ODST O’Brien
No, but I hadn’t thought of him…
The last two lines might give it away. You just have to hunt for the answer.
Cadet Lasky?
Not quite, though I see how you came up with him.
I’ll give it another guess before I give another hint.
Hmm I thought O’Brien was good guess…
but now lets see…
I’m gonna go with: Gunny Harland.
Correct! -Corporal- Harland from Halo: Fall of Reach.
(He wasn’t a gunny, though he took command since everyone else was killed.)
Nice! That was well done.
Looking forward to the next one!
I was doing some digging and found this as well.

It is some fan fiction about what happened later to Cpl Harland. He was a gunny by then so I confused the ranks.
Nice job!
…You know that the way the game works is if YOU solve the riddle, YOU make a riddle.
Since you solved the original riddle, you create one for anyone but me to solve. This way different people can have a go. Once your riddle is solved, I can join back in the game.
And a riddle you shall have!
Should I create a new post or keep it here?
Keep it here. don’t need to be spamming the forums, now. Hehehe.
Was gonna say young Lasky myself lol. You should do more!
Through atypical behavior I tried to hold the floor
Protecting the weak behind the most elite
I almost stopped the enemy from passing my door
Still holding command I battled those below me,
Sacrificing my body to strike for the win
I left the dead behind to fly away free
Unaware that my true battle was about to begin.

Original Arbiter?
That’s a good one…Even I am stumped…
Not the original arbiter, but good guess.
I’m looking for a name…
