Evo-014's Summary
In the expansive realm of Halo's narrative, military themes predominantly prevail. Nonetheless, the universe boasts a diverse array of significant characters who do not directly partake in military service. Instead, they contribute to the military's endeavors through various means, whether it be overseeing the entirety of the Spartan-II Program, assuming the role of the science officer aboard the Spirit of Fire, or disseminating ONI propaganda to bolster the war effort.
Seekers of Truth
Doctor Catherine Halsey embarked on numerous clandestine ventures during her tenure with the Office of Naval Intelligence. However, her most notorious undertaking remains the Spartan-II program, a venture in which her integral involvement was indispensable. Professor Ellen Anders, regarded by many as equally brilliant as Doctor Halsey, played a pivotal role in crucial events such as the Battle of the Etran Harborage and the Second Ark Conflict, where her contributions proved to be the linchpin between defeat and victory. Rion Forge, driven by the desire to locate her father, stumbled upon a revelation of far greater magnitude than she could have ever envisioned. Meanwhile, Ben Giraud relentlessly toiled to uncover the truth shrouding the Spartan-II program, an endeavor met with resolute opposition.

Artificial Intelligences
Within the expansive ranks of the UNSC, the number of AIs is so vast that it defies enumeration. However, among this multitude, a select few AIs stand out as the most influential and arguably the most astute. Notable among them is Cortana, renowned for her remarkable abilities while collaborating with John-117, yet equally infamous for her betrayal of humanity in the year 2558. Another prominent figure is Roland, whose unwavering loyalty makes him the dedicated shipboard AI of the UNSC Infinity. Despite not being originally designed for military purposes, Isabel has seamlessly adapted to her role, thanks to her formidable intellect. In the annals of AI history, Serina is often regarded as possibly the most brilliant AI of her era, although much of her potential lay dormant after the Spirit of Fire was left adrift. Finally, the enigmatic Black-Box emerges as a contender for the title of the smartest AI in the post-war era, although his intelligence might well be matched by Cortana's.

Forerunners
The Librarian always had a penchant for operating in the shadows, a trait she retained even beyond her demise. She continued to exert her influence, aiding Master Chief in his struggle against the Ur-Didact a hundred millennia after her own passing. As for the IsoDidact, he did not actively seek out his role, but when thrust into it, he embraced the mantle of leadership that the galaxy so desperately required during the twilight days of the Forerunners.
