Poll: DARE- Spartan? [closed]
Total Votes: 23
EDIT- NO, SHE IS NOT. IT'S OFFICIAL (see somewhere below).
Ok, I've seen alot of speculation that DARE is a spartan. My say (and please let me know if you agree with this) is that she is NOT a spartan. Of course, that's just my say, I want to hear what you say about it, after reading the ideas and counter-ideas.
1) Wearing a helmet doesn't make you one of something that also wears it. For all we know, the Recon helmet may not have been originally Spartan anyway. After all, the ODST helmet was originally donned by, guess who, the ODST. It could be yet another helm that was originally worn by someone else that was adopted by the spartan program, (heck, the Hayabusa helmet was worn by a ninja in another game, but that's beside the point.)
2) Another theory of her being a spartan is the whole (classified) fiasco. The explanation for that is that she's an operative of ONI or some project the ODST are up to, not because she's a spartan that they don't want people to know about, after all, the spartan program did go public so... But then again, she could have deleted her own files on purpose, OR, Bungie simply didn't want us to know -Blam!- about her, to keep us guessing about the game.
3)She's not wearing Mjolnir amor. Now, I entirely realize that this is no reason for her not to be a spartan, as I'm sure a spartan could do fine even without super-armor, but I'm simply stating that, by the book, every spartan was outfitted with said armor and liked it. This makes it unlikely, yet easily possible, that she could've ditched the armor, I just don't think that's the case. Then again, she could've been a select few not to wear it.
4) In the trailer, the ODST seemed fairly calm with her. As far as I know, the ODST have a strong resentment to spartans, whether it be chief or any other. Once again though, there could me many explanations for it.
5) Oversized head? I don't know what your talking about, looking at it and thinking hard about it, you have to realize that the helmet looks dis-porportionate because we are used to seeing a helmet AND the armor, making one solid, fluid figure. In this case though, she seems to have a thinner suit on, making her helmet look slightly (but not as much as everyone exadggerates) big.
That's my logic here, but I do want to know what you think of this. If you have any LOGIC, not random spam saying "of course she is/isn't a spartan you big dummy!", please post it.
EDIT 1: I think I figured out why her head may look slightly oversized in addition to my other theory. ALot of people refer to a video where the camera rotates around her. But if you notice, the camera is at somewhat of a high, angled um....angle. Of course things closer to the camera in and uneven angle such as this will seem bigger than something that is farther away, even if it's one object and it's not that big.
