I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

There is no way of really knowing until we get more info.

I see the 5 people as fingers, and Bungie, by letting us control the middle character, is giving us the finger!

Calm down. I was kidding. Nobody knows for sure who they are. How do you know I'm not right? It's a video game, not real life. Bungie could make the characters whoever the hell they want.

Foman is a Forum Ninja. One of the strictest, but most respected. I have had run-ins with his Blacklist hammer in the past, though it was less for bad things, more for understandable things. He seemed to get me. Doesn't like Mythikos though, who's a buddy of mine.

Anyway. My theory is that they are new Spartans we have yet to meet.

Its no theory. Its how its going to go down.

Simply put, it makes more sense for the game to focus on five unknown spartans than on five known spartans from the Books. Why? All the main spartans from the books, we know what exactly happen to them. Sure, it would be cool to visually see the events of the book, but it wouldn't be fun to play. They would need to embellish all the action scenes heavily just to make it a proper game.

But if they focus on five un-named spartans that were part of the Red Team, its perfect. Sure, we know that they die / don't appear in the future for whatever reason, but the important thing is that we don't know how they die. With five unknowns, you can craft a story that is not only original and gripping but it also doesn't violate canon at all.

Its going to be sweet because we have never seen five spartans working together in a squad before. Look at what Master Chief did by himself and multiply it by five. And the invincibillity of this spartan squad contrasts nicely with their inevitable doom via plasma bombardment. They are so powerful, yet powerless to stop the world from burning around them.

Very poetic?

As I said... the game will not focus on any spartans we know about. Theres no arguing it.

that is a thought not all the Spartans are named in the books that is a strong possibility.

You should be... he brings down the banhammer in the middle of night, pulping your self-confidence all over your pillow as you sleep.
