Emile is black, or at least thats what he originally was supposed to be.

From Isac Hannaford's blog.
The original character portraits I did for the 7 spartan noble team. From left to right, Emile, Carter, Rosenda, Kat, Jun, Thom, and Jorge.

We eventually cut Rosenda and Thom. We didn't have the bandwidth to do their character stories justice...maybe someday, someone will tell their stories.

You can look at it yourself. It's posted under "Monday January 31" after all the marine development, here.
Just thought I'd let you all know. Sorry if this isn't new, but I haven't seen anything on it.

Yet another triumph for basic linguistics and common sense.

My jokes, so I don't lose them (ignore this):
ZedFish's Opinion on Sgt. Foley.
ZedFish's Forerunner Rickroll.

Hmm, I saw this the other day, but may I say..
No surprises with Emile, or Carter... Kat looks very manly, Jun more Asian than he is in the game... and Jorge actually does look a little Hispanic.

No I was just giving evidence for a ton of old speculation.

I always though he was black anyway, its the way he talks.

Yes, I'm a girl, stop asking.

Same here, I actually saw this pic in fairly low res a while back. Didn't Bungie show it at a con or something?

Its not weird IMO, and I agree, you could tell he sounded black. Just as I am sure you could tell I sound white if you heard my voice.

Hey I heard that they knocked the Berlin wall down?

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

Pretty cool concept art. You don't need a picture of Emile's face to know he's black, though. His voice says it all.

I thought this the whole time.

Between his voice, his knife that he always carries, and his gang sign carved onto his face :D

yeah, this was a bit old just to tell you, and it was pretty easy to tell from his voice :P

  • 02.07.2011 3:04 PM PDT

Bone'n in the mist...

You can tell by his voice that he's black. I didn't realize it was such a big mystery lol.
