Red Team

The Red Team, from left to right: Lopez, the Warthog (Jeep, also known as Chupathingy), Sarge, Simmons (Warthog gunner), Grif and Donut.

Sarge

  • Full Name: Unknown
  • Voice Actor: Matt Hullum
  • Armor Color: Red
  • Appearances: The Blood Gulch Chronicles, The Recollection, Project Freelancer
  • Status: Alive

Sarge is a Sergeant and leader of the Red Team on Blood Gulch. He is voiced by Matt Hullum, co-creator of the series, and first appeared at the end of Episode 1. He is from Moscow, Iowa and has a Southern accent. Sarge is somewhat bloodthirsty, and the only Blood Gulch soldier on either team to actually be serious about the war. It is mentioned that he has a military background and briefly joined the ODSTs. His preferred weapon is a shotgun, which he carries at all times. He has a passionate hatred for Grif, demonstrated by his repeated willingness to sacrifice Grif during combat missions, and referring to killing Grif as a contingency plan. He has something of a father-son relationship with Simmons, but still gives him a hard time. He displays little knowledge of tactics and his plans often turn into suicide missions. He is shown to be a good mechanic, and is able to repair Jeeps and build robots. At the end of The Recollection, after finding out that the whole Blood Gulch war was merely simulation training for the Freelancers, he is extremely devastated. Sarge reevaluated his motives and shows more respect for his teammates, both Red and Blue, he then rallied both teams together to fight a common enemy; The Meta.

Simmons

  • Full Name: Richard Simmons
  • Voice Actor: Gustavo Sorola
  • Armor Color: Maroon; Blue with Maroon Trim (BGC Episodes 64-73)
  • Appearances: The Blood Gulch Chronicles, The Recollection, Project Freelancer
  • Status: Alive

Private First Class Simmons is voiced by Gustavo Sorola, co-creator of the series. Simmons is from Dublin, Ireland. Simmons and Grif were the first two characters to ever appear in Red vs. Blue, appearing at the start of Episode 1. He is very attentive to his superior, Sarge, and, unlike Grif, obeys his orders, but is also a brown-noser to Sarge. Simmons shows extensive knowledge of technology and computers. In one instance, he hacks into the Freelancer mainframe and deletes the Blue Team's records. Simmons continuously demonstrates an ability to formulate effective battle plans and strategies, though they are almost always overlooked by Sarge. He appears to be the most practical of the Red team, and determines the logical explanation for events while Sarge creates ludicrous theories. When the Reds finally find out that the true purpose of the Red and Blue teams is to train Freelancers, it is said that the bases are staffed by the 10th percentile. Grif then asks Simmons how he ended up there, since he seems smart, to this Simmons complains that time limits on tests are not fair. So it is possible that Simmons is the only team member worthy of actual military status.

Grif

  • Full Name: Dexter Grif
  • Voice Actor: Geoff Ramsey
  • Armor Color: Orange
  • Appearances: The Blood Gulch Chronicles, The Recollection, Project Freelancer
  • Status: Alive

Private Grif is voiced by Geoff Ramsey, co-creator of the series. Grif is from Honolulu, Hawaii. Grif first appeared at the start of Episode 1, along with Simmons. Grif was forced into the Red army after the first military draft in thousands of years. He is incredibly lazy and a loudmouth, often talking back to Sarge. In Reconstruction it is revealed that he was promoted to the rank of Sergeant, but is later demoted to the fictitious rank of "Minor Junior Private Negative First Class" because of a deal between Sarge and Agent Washington. It is eventually revealed that Grif does not avoid work or ignore orders out of sheer laziness, but as a way showing disrespect towards Sarge, whom he dislikes. He has a mostly begrudging kinship with his teammates, and is slow to assist them. Grif is shown to be relatively adept at driving vehicles, including the Warthog, Hornet, and even a Pelican. He is also shown to be exceptionally hard to kill, being able to survive being shot multiple times, falling from extreme heights, and even having his groin repeatedly smashed by Tex.

Grif has a Halo 3 and Halo: Reach mini game based on him being killed by a Red or Blue team with Gravity Hammers or Energy Swords called "Grifball."

Donut

  • Full Name: Franklin Delano Donut
  • Voice Actor: Dan Godwin
  • Armor Color: Pink; Red (BGC Episodes 3-15)
  • Appearances: The Blood Gulch Chronicles, The Recollection, Project Freelancer
  • Status: Alive

Private Donut is from Leggat Plains, Iowa. He first appears in Episode 3 of Season 1 as a new recruit, whose garrulous personality tends to annoy other members of the Red Team. He originally sported the standard issue red armor color. In an inadvertent series of events he accidentally captures the blue flag, and is seriously injured by a plasma grenade. He was quickly evacuated, and when he returned had his own armor color; pink. Initially insecure about this, he insists on calling it "lightish red". The pink armor invites teasing from his teammates, and even causes the Blues to think he's a girl for the first two seasons. After The Blood Gulch Chronicles, he was transferred to a desert with Tucker, but after a mysterious attack on their base he makes his way back to Valhalla to tell the Reds to help them, almost dying of dehydration in the process. He is unwittingly caught up in the aftermath in Recreation, eventually getting shot by a short-tempered Washington, and is presumed dead. After Washington tells Doc and Simmons that if they don't cooperate they'll end up dead like Donut, Doc tell Simmons "Hey, he does realize that I'm the one who scanned Donut's dead body, right?" This implies that Donut could still be alive, they just did not want to tell Washington. He later revealed to be in Recovery Mode, which locks down the user's armor and places them into a form of stasis in the event of heavy injuries. He is indirectly brought out of Recovery Mode by Epsilon-Church. Inside the Epsilon unit in Season 9, he is incorrectly remembered as the leader of the Reds. However, when Epsilon-Church comes up to the Reds to explain their true personality, Donut then starts to revert to his old self. Donut returns in season 10, when he was given medical attention by Doc.

Rooster Teeth had a plan for the character from the outset. In the multiplayer games of the Halo video game series, which was used to film Red vs. Blue, human characters wear futuristic MJOLNIR battle armor. In changing Donut's armor to pink in the later part of Season 1, the producers made his armor color, gender, and sexual orientation a running gag, and fully developed his personality during Season 2. It is later explained that after he was blown up by Tex, he received sensitivity training while in recovery, leading him to develop a more feminine attitude. Godwin ad-libbed some of Donut's lines, to the approval of other Rooster Teeth personnel. In some scenes, the filming was adapted to complement Godwin's interpretation of the script. Early in Season 1, fans reacted well to Donut; as a result, Burnie Burns, the main writer for Red vs. Blue, focused the storyline on Donut and Caboose (Joel Heyman), the Blue Team's rookie.

Lopez

  • Full Name: Droid #01011331123[1]
  • Voice Actor: Burnie Burns (in poorly spoken Spanish, subtitles are provided)
  • Armor Color: Brown; Cobalt (BGC Episodes 2037)
  • Appearances: The Blood Gulch Chronicles, The Recollection, Project Freelancer
  • Status: Destroyed (backup copies exist)

Lopez is a robotic mechanic built by Sarge with a "robot kit". He does not speak for most of Season 1, and it is eventually reveled that he is a robot that is missing a speech unit. Sarge orders a speech unit, but accidentally damages it with a static electric discharge during the installation process, which causes Lopez to speak only Spanish. However, he is able to understand English fine. Lopez calls himself "Lopez the Heavy" and demonstrates a stoic, tough personality. He also tends to exhibit characteristics that are stereotypically Latin American, such as a strong socialist ideology. Being programmed by Sarge, Lopez also dislikes Grif, though he shows frequent disdain for all the members of both the red and blue teams.

Near the end of Season 1, Church possesses Lopez, and later has the other Blues paint his body Cobalt to match his old armor. Initially, Church can only speak in Spanish while possessing Lopez. However, before the beginning of Season 2, the Blues manage to partially disable Lopez's Spanish language setting, allowing Church to speak English. After being freed from Church's control, Lopez defects to the Blue Team when the Reds mistake him for a Blue soldier and attempt to kill him. As a Blue, he repairs and falls in love with Sheila. He develops a resistance to possession and has his old armor color restored.

Later on Lopez is taken by O'Malley, and a large bomb reduces Lopez to a disembodied head. He spends most of Season 4 in hiding with Doc and O'Malley in a secret lair. The Reds soon learn that Lopez has secret plans from Command. In Episode 75, the Reds find Lopez and request the plans embedded in his head. However, the recording was translated into Spanish and no one understand them. In Episode 76 he points out that the instructions were unhelpful, a prediction that was confirmed in Episode 77, when the instructions translated by Andy prove useless. Having served under Red, Blue, and O'Malley, Lopez is increasingly tired of the conflict and makes numerous requests to simply die. However, since no one understands what he says, his requests are in vain. After another absence, Lopez's head is rediscovered in the caves by Sister and Doc. Sister manages to communicate with Lopez in Spanish, only to be mocked by him. He is left behind in the caves in the same cavern as Andy. In the final episode of the series, Lopez reunites with Sheila, who was transferred into the large ship that landed in Blood Gulch.

Lopez's appears in Reconstruction, where it is shown that he remained at Blood Gulch with Sarge, who built a new body. In Chapter 9 of Reconstruction, Lopez is left behind while Sarge heads off to find Simmons and Grif. Lopez states that he plans to wipe his memories of Sarge like he did with Grif and Simmons. The sponsor's cut shows Lopez feeling lonely after Sarge leaves. He reappears in Relocated, where he is called to Valhalla by Sarge to build a new underground holographic testing room. In Recreation a short-tempered Washington abruptly shoots him in the head. However, Lopez took preemptive measures and made backup copies of himself. In the Epsilon unit in Season 9, he only speaks Spanish because Sarge wanted to add multiculturalism to the Red team, realizing only in hindsight that this was a poor idea.

In season 10, when the Reds and Blues return to Valhalla, the reds immediately go off to rebuild Lopez. When the reds return to base, they discover that Donut and Doc turned Lopez into a scarecrow.

Warthog

  • Full Name: M12-LRV Warthog (also referred to as the Puma, Chupathingy or simply The Jeep)
  • Voice Actor: Burnie Burns (BGC Episodes 23-25)
  • Color: Gun-Metal Green[1]

The Warthog (the vehicle's actual name in the Halo video game series) is a battle jeep delivered to the Reds in Episode 2. Failing to see much resemblance to a warthog, Grif suggests the name Puma. Believing that Grif is suggesting the name of a mythical creature, Sarge mockingly suggests several other mythical creatures — such as Bigfoot, unicorn, leprechaun, and "Chupathingy" (after the Chupacabra) — as names. Chupathingy is the name listed on the character biography, available as an Easter egg for the season 3 DVD. In Episode 29, Grif notes that the warthog seems to be "really bad luck." During the first two seasons, it spends most of its time out of commission, or being repaired by Lopez. The warthog is frequently blaring loud Mexican ranchera music, most likely set by Lopez, and it can often be heard approaching because of it. Throughout the show, multiple Warthogs are used, destroyed and repaired. They almost always play the same ranchera music.

The original warthog had a homing beacon and remote control system linked to Lopez. This system is accidentally activated in Season 2 when Church, then possessing Lopez, and Tucker attempt to activate Lopez's repair sequence. It was during this period that the warthog spoke. Burns suggests that, like Sheila, the vehicle was originally going to be a full-blown character and maintain a personality throughout the series, in a parody of Speed Buggy. This idea was, however, abandoned shortly after the remote control gag.[2]

Blue Team

File:Rvb Blue Team Halo 3 Engine.jpg
The Blue Team, from left to right: Tucker, Sheila (the tank), Tex, Epsilon (the monitor), Church and Caboose.

Church

  • Full Name: Leonard L. Church
  • Voice Actor: Burnie Burns
  • Armor Color: Cobalt; White as an A.I./
  • Seasons as Alpha-Church: The Blood Gulch Chronicles, Reconstruction, Project Freelancer
  • Seasons as Epsilon-Church: Recreation, Revelation, Project Freelancer
  • Status: Deleted (Alpha-Church); Alive (Epsilon-Church)

Private Church is voiced by Burnie Burns, co-creator and main writer of the series. He is from Texas and the de facto leader of the Blood Gulch Blue Team, a group of soldiers engaged in a futuristic civil war against the Red Team. Rooster Teeth often uses Church, who has an irate disposition,[3] to advance the plot by managing the situation at hand.[4] To provide a twist in character development, Burns decided to kill Church early in the series and have him return as a ghost. In episode 16 of Reconstruction, Washington tells Church that he is the alpha AI from which the other Freelancer Program AIs originated, stating "There is no such thing as ghosts." In this setting, as in Halo canon, smart AIs are based on an actual person, and episode 19 of Reconstruction reveals that Church, as the alpha, was based on the director of Project Freelancer, the original Dr. Leonard L. Church. Church is last seen assisting Washington in detonating an EMP at the end of Reconstruction. Burns confirmed that Alpha-Church truly dies in the EMP. During the course of Recreation his character is largely replaced by Epsilon-Church. Church is also known for carrying a Sniper Rifle throughout the Red vs Blue series. However, he is a terrible shot with all firearms, to the point where cannot hit a soldier standing a few feet in front of him with a pistol.

Tucker

  • Full Name: Lavernius Tucker
  • Voice Actor: Jason Saldaña
  • Armor Color: Aqua (Cyan in older Halo versions); Blue (before death of Captain Flowers)
  • Appearances: The Blood Gulch Chronicles, The Recollection, Project Freelancer
  • Status: Alive

Private First Class[1] Tucker is voiced by Jason Saldaña. Tucker is from Detroit, Michigan and debuted alongside Church in Episode 1. He almost never gets to use the sniper rifle, which is a running gag. In Season 5, Episode 94, he finally manages to get the sniper rifle, only to unintentionally shoot Tex. Tucker is also known for always talking about women and uttering the catchphrase "bow chicka bow wow" at every available opportunity. Tucker appears to have excellent sight, he claims it's because he never gets to use the sniper rifle. In Season 5, he was able to see that that Sister was a female from across the canyon. In Season 3 Tucker finds an energy sword, which only works for him, and he is later taken on a "quest" by an Alien in Season 4. The Alien eventually impregnates Tucker with a parasitic embryo, and he later gives birth to Junior. His armor gets also gets coated with a black substance when he goes through a teleporter, which is a continuous source of frustration. In Season 3, it is suggested that he is Black, but when asked by Church he finds the question offensive. In the episodes leading up to 100, he is the only one to recognize the time loop set up by Wyoming. Tucker manages to procure a sniper rifle and kills multiple "copies" of Wyoming, using skill and his knowledge of coming events.

After the Blood Gulch Chronicles, Tucker was recruited as an ambassador between the aliens and humans, and transferred to a desert. At some point during this time he was reunited with Junior and regained his sword. He makes a brief voice appearance in Reconstruction, calling Freelancer Command and requesting help with his mission in the desert, only to be ignored by the Reds. He reappears in Recreation, single handedly fending off C.T.'s team, and assists Caboose and the Reds for the rest of the season. In Revelation, he is able to stab the Meta with his sword in the final fight. Tucker then returns with Caboose, Washington, Doc, and the Reds to Valhalla after they are debriefed by UNSC recovery team.

Caboose

  • Full Name: Michael J. Caboose
  • Voice Actor: Joel Heyman
  • Armor Color: Blue
  • Appearances: The Blood Gulch Chronicles, The Recollection, Project Freelancer
  • Status: Alive

Private Michael J. Caboose is voiced by Joel Heyman. Caboose first appears in episode 3 of season 1 as a new recruit for the Blood Gulch Blue Team.

Caboose is from the Moon (Southern Colony number 6) portrayed as one of the most eccentric characters in the series. Consistently shown to be mentally abnormal, his behavior varies from merely somewhat dim-witted in Season 1 to almost completely divorced from reality in Season 3 and onwards. This is most likely due to the strong personality of Omega ('O'Malley') possessing him in Season 1 and permanently damaging his mental faculties . Additionally, it is stated during conversation that Tucker and Church once "rebooted" his armor, causing his life support systems to shut down - including his oxygen supply. It is implied from this that Caboose suffered brain damage from oxygen deprivation. His unusual behavior frequently earns him the scorn and disrespect of the series' other characters. It is a running gag that he injures or kills anyone that he attempts to help. In several instances, characters get him to shoot targets by telling him that "they are friends and we are trying to help them". In the original series, he killed Alpha-Church with the Blue Team's tank, Sheila. In Reconstruction, while the cast is being assembled, Washington finds him in a military stockade, apparently for accidentally killing several squad-mates. Later in Reconstruction, in an attempt to stop Freelancer Agent South Dakota, Church tells Caboose to "help her", resulting in Caboose immediately shooting her. Despite his shortcomings, he is arguably the most genuinely loyal character and frequently displays above-average physical strength, which Church and Tucker describe as "God's way of compensating". In Reconstruction, he has an uncharacteristically smart idea to get into Freelancer Command by using captured Freelancer vehicles: Washington and Alpha-Church ride a captured Warthog, while Caboose, Sarge, Simmons and Grif all sit in the captured tank.

Oddly enough, whenever Church possesses Caboose (allowing viewers to see inside the workings of Caboose's mind), Caboose's mental representation of himself seems completely sane and reasonable, like a calmer version of how he acted in his first few episodes before he was taken over by O'Malley. A few episodes take place partly in Caboose's mind, and it is shown that he pays little attention to what some of Red Team look and act like. For example, Sarge spoke like a pirate, Grif originally was yellow (before Sister came), Simmons was called Simon, Donut was a girl, and Sister was "Church's twin brother that crashed from the moon and now lives with Caboose and the people from the tail section of the space ship now live on the other side of the island." Delta also appeared as a memory after briefly residing in Caboose's suit.

According to the backstory released by Rooster Teeth, Caboose is the youngest in a large family. He apparently joined the Blue Army by mistake; he thought he was signing up for a study abroad program in France.

In an early episode of the Drunk Tank Podcast, a series of candid conversations between the creators of Red vs. Blue, Joel Heyman, Caboose's voice actor, revealed that his motivation for the character was that Caboose is "the only character who is aware that he's in a video game."

In the first few series Caboose falls in love with Sheila the tank, but loses her when Lopez comes into the picture. Caboose is the one who brings Epsilon-Church to Valhalla and the desert area with Tucker in the hopes of getting a new best friend, after he realizes that his earlier best friend, Church, likes Tucker more than him.

In part due to positive early fan reaction, Burnie Burns, the main writer for the series, focused the storyline on Caboose and Donut (Dan Godwin), the Red Team's rookie.

Tex

  • Full Name: Allison (last name unknown)
  • Codename: Texas, Beta AI
  • Voice Actor: Kathleen Zuelch; Burnie Burns while in use of her voice filter
  • Armor Color: Black
  • Armor Ability: Cloaking, Super Strength
  • Implanted A.I.: Omega
  • Seasons as AI Tex/Beta: The Blood Gulch Chronicles, Out of Mind, Reconstruction (voice only), Recreation (trailer), Project Freelancer
  • Seasons as Epsilon-Tex: Revelation, Season 9
  • Status: Deleted (A.I. Tex/Beta); Deleted (Epsilon Tex)

Freelancer Tex, also known as Beta, is voiced by Burnie Burns in her initial appearance, and Kathleen Zuelch thereafter. Of the eight main characters, Tex was the last to appear, not debuting until Episode 10.

Though she is associated with the Blue Team, she is not an official member, but rather a mercenary "paid" to help them. Her backstory with Project Freelancer and previous affiliation with fellow Blue Team member Church are key elements in the plot. Her first name is Allison, but her common nickname is Tex, based on her codename from Project Freelancer, as was common amongst most of the Freelancers. She used to date Church, and even though they are no longer together, they both still display affection and attachment to each other during the series. With her Special Operations training, she is the most competently lethal member of the Blood Gulch cast, and especially so while she is still implanted with the Omega AI. Her adeptness at mixed martial arts and devastating resourcefulness in combat are finally fully demonstrated in Revelation, wherein she mercilessly and repeatedly beat and pummel Sarge, Simmons, Grif and Tucker, without a scratch to show for it. Despite her skill, she is shown to comparatively lacking in endurance and durability as seen in Episode 19 of Revelation in which her combat ability diminished significantly after taking a bullet, whereas the Meta and Washington were both shown to hold up despite similar, if not worse, injuries.

Tex escapes in a ship at the end of Blood Gulch Chronicles, with Andy, Sheila, Gamma, and Omega. This ship crashes in Reconstruction and The Meta steals her as well as Gamma and Omega. Tex later dies in the EMP blast made by Washington (as confirmed by Rooster Teeth) She briefly reappeared in the trailer of Recreation along with Church, but does not appear in the actual series, and is discounted.

In Revelation, Epsilon-Church comes across a new robot body made for Tex in an abandoned facility and uses his memories to recreate Tex, this version of Tex is dubbed Epsilon - Tex by Rooster Teeth. In chapter 19 of Revelation, Epsilon reveals that Tex was a by-product of the creation of the Alpha. She manifested from the Director's memories of his long-lost love, Allison, in the form of another seemingly fully formed AI. Because all the Director could remember of Allison was her death, Tex is always doomed to failure just as victory is in her grasp. Epsilon - Tex is later imprisoned in the capture unit by the Meta resulting in Epsilon going in to find her. While trapped with Epsilon-Church in the capture unit, Epsilon deletes her by saying "I forget you", not wishing to let her live a life of never ending failures.

Sheila

  • Full Name: Sheila, originally F.I.L.S.S. (M808V Main Battle Tank, later D77-TC Pelican Dropship)
  • Voice Actor: Yomary Cruz
  • Armor Color: Gun-Metal Green
  • Appearances as Sheila: The Blood Gulch Chronicles, Reconstruction, Recreation (does not speak)
  • Appearances as F.I.L.S.S: Revelation, Project Freelancer
  • Status: Alive

Sheila, originally named F.I.L.S.S. (Freelancer Integrated Logistics and Security System and pronounced "Phyllis"), is the AI of the Blue team's M808V Main Battle Tank. She is usually friendly and cheerful, but sometimes defensive. Early on in Season 1, she is driven by Caboose, who targets and kills his teammate, Church. This was due to a disabled Friendly Fire protocol. Sheila is bombed out of action by an airstrike early in the Season 1, but is later repaired by Tex. Donut later disables her again by pitching a grenade into her cockpit at the end of Season 1.

Sheila shows some indications of liking Caboose. However, in the middle of Season 2, she falls in love with Lopez, much to Caboose's dislike. Later, the two attempt to lead a robot revolution against the humans in response to perceived abuse that they have received, like being constantly blown up and possessed by ghosts. This idea stemmed from Church's attempt to deter them from doing so. After O'Malley kidnaps Lopez, she starts assisting the teams again.

Sheila remains behind on Blood Gulch while the Reds and Blues leave to pursue O'Malley through the teleporter. After a brief encounter with a time-traveling Church, who whispers a plan to her, Sheila powers down. She is the source of the distress signal that the Reds hear in Season 3. A deleted scene from Season 4 confirms that she sent out the distress signal and disguises her voice. In addition, all of the Reds except Sarge see her drive past Red Base. When Sarge demotes Simmons for his talk about "imaginary" tanks, she helps Simmons attempt his revenge on the Reds, and is unable to recognize the team as her enemies due to faltering memory units. In a deleted scene from Season 4, she expresses dissatisfaction when Church collects all the vehicles available to the Blue Base in Blood Gulch, while Church perceives her reaction as jealousy.

In Season 5, Church notes that Sheila has been acting aggressive lately and saying "random threatening things." Church inquires to Tex if O'Malley, an evil AI, could be possessing Sheila. Sheila is then shut down in order to find out what was wrong with her, right before she is able to tell Caboose who O'Malley was possessing. Tex explained that the tank was far too damaged to be reactivated, so they decided to transfer Sheila's AI into the Pelican that Sister had arrived in. She is pleasantly surprised by the roominess of her new home, and later tells Caboose that O'Malley has moved into the Blue leader (Captain Flowers). Her tank body is then taken over by the AI Gary. Later they link the ship up to the tank and she locks Gary behind a firewall.

She is believed to be killed by Andy when her space ship appears to explode in the final episode of the Blood Gulch Chronicles. However, it is revealed in Reconstruction that Sheila survived the explosion and is still present within the crashed ship at Outpost 17-B. As a result of the damage from the explosion, she functions only at minimal capacity and stutters when speaking. Later in Relocated Caboose is seen taking parts from the ship.

Caboose tells the other Blues in Episode 54 that Andy knowns Sheila from a previous encounter, but no interaction between Sheila and Andy has occurred to support his claim. Rooster Teeth stated that Andy was originally to be Sheila's ex-boyfriend. However, the idea was pushed to Season 5, according to Hullum.[5] However, the relationship is not mentioned in the later season. It was told on the Rooster Teeth Podcast[when?] that the late actress Brittany Murphy was considered for the role of Sheila, but she declined.

Junior

  • Full Name: Lavernius Tucker Jr[6]
  • Voice Actor: Jason Saldaña[5]
  • Armor Color: Aqua and Blue
  • Appearances: The Blood Gulch Chronicles (Seasons 4, 5)
  • Status: Alive

Junior is the result of the Alien supposedly impregnating Tucker, with a parasitic embryo. In Episode 77, his voice is first heard. In Season 5, he causes havoc in the Blue Base and Doc feeds him with some of Caboose's blood off-screen. Junior first appears in Episode 80, and is a mini-version of the Alien, with cyan and blue armor. Its existence frustrates Church who threatens to kill it multiple times. In Episode 84, the creature is introduced to Tucker, its "father". Tucker slowly becomes accustomed to this role, even snapping back at Church when he refers to it in a flippant manner. In Episode 91, Tucker is heard to call him Junior, and in Episode 94, Junior mimics Tucker's catch phrase by saying "bow chicka honk honk". Later on, Junior is sent through the caves with Doc and Sister, where he is found by Captain Butch Flowers, who at the time was possessed by O'Malley. According to Episode 97, Junior is part of a "the great prophecy" and is to be the savior of the Alien. The villains, however, intend to use him to control the Aliens. It is later implied that the whole prophecy was largely fictitious.

Junior was taken onto the ship that Tex used to blast off from Blood Gulch, which exploded. However, the ship was later found crashed in Valhalla with no sign of either Junior or anyone else on board. In Recreation, however, Tucker mentions that Junior is with him and together they act as ambassadors between the humans and Aliens. Despite this, Junior does not make an appearance.

Rooster Teeth released a video detailing how Junior was filmed at such a small size, it was included on the Season 5 DVD. According to the video, fans speculated upon an outside modification being used, but in reality the crew simply used forced perspective. In shots where Junior is standing next to other characters, the crew placed the Junior in the background of the shot and kept the feet of all the characters obscured so the distance between the characters was not noticeable. As Junior "grew", he was moved closer. In perspective shots where the characters looked down at Junior, the "camera" was simply positioned on top of the Warthog so that it was higher. In shots from Junior's perspective, the characters would then stand on top of the Warthog. Matt Hullum edited the image of a foot of one of the characters to look larger than it was, and positioned it next to Junior in perspective shots to make Junior look smaller than he really was.

Sister

  • Full Name: Kaikaina Grif[6]
  • Voice Actor: Rebecca Frasier
  • Armor Color: Yellow
  • Appearances: The Blood Gulch Chronicles (Season 5), Reconstruction Chapter 2
  • Status: Deceased

In Episode 81, a door on the large ship that landed in the gulch opens and Grif's sister is introduced. She is referred to as "Sister" by both teams. She tells the Reds she joined in order to be reunited with Grif, and that Command had sent her as a new recruit since one team member will be promoted to replace their deceased commanding officer. In Episode 84 it is revealed that she is color-blind, and thus enlisted in the Blue Army by mistake. In Episode 85, she is sent to the Blue Team to protect her from Sarge, who hate Blues. In the next episode the Blues give her an orientation but are interrupted by Tex firing on them. When Tex calms down, she expresses indignation at the fact that the Blue Team has acquired a new girl after she'd only been gone for a few weeks. In Episodes 88-89, Tex and Sister have a private conversation while Church and Tucker discuss the consequences of having two girls on the team.

Soon after, Doc says that he needs to give her a physical due to her being a new soldier. Tucker is left jealous at the fact that Doc was giving her a physical while she was naked. Meanwhile, the Red Team, who are underground at the time, find some surveillance equipment and see her naked, infuriating Grif but intriguing Sarge and Simmons, while Donut is interested in the room's decor. Later, Doc, Sister and Junior are sent into the caves there they find Lopez's disembodied head, and are approached by a possessed Captain Flowers and an Alien. The three are then held captive by Flowers and the new Alien until O'Malley leaves Flowers's body in Episode 100. A running gag throughout her appearance is that she frequently make unbelievably ridiculous comments that would prompt other characters to say "Wait, what?". Such includes comments about attempting Aspirin overdose and surviving, having the ability to ejaculate, having seven abortions, and giving the idea of raiding the supplies for morphine.

Sister is the only remaining Blue soldier in the canyon come Reconstruction. She apparently throws raves every night and is quite useless to Washington, who she thinks is a cop. In Episode 3 of Relocated, when Sarge calls Lopez to tell him to relocate to the new base, Lopez informs Sarge that he has killed Sister and won the battle in Blood Gulch in favor of the Reds. When Grif is informed that Sister is dead, he refuses to believe it saying that Sister had previously survived being trapped under ice in a freezing river for three hours, following which, she became pregnant.

Although Rebecca Frasier was a good friend of the Rooster Teeth production crew, Burnie Burns intended to allow other women to audition for the role of Sister despite the pressure of the other members. He notes two other girls auditioned for the role before Frasier was given her chance, but when she began auditioning the team made something of a joke out of the audition, slipping in increasingly more vulgar lines to see how far Frasier would go before refusing to read them. Upon realizing she had no such limits, Frasier was cast as Sister and the role was re-written as a far more promiscuous character to fit with the lines she had read in the audition.[7]

Captain Flowers

Captain Butch Flowers was the Blue Team's previous commanding officer at Blood Gulch. His character is introduced when Church arrives at the past Blood Gulch after traveling back in time. Flowers and Tucker had planned to pull out of Blood Gulch, but when the then current Church arrived with the news that the Blue base on Sidewinder had been wiped out, they were forced to abandon this effort. Flowers had been planning to lead a Blue offensive to destroy the Red Team in Blood Gulch, claiming he knew the key to the Blues' victory. However, before he can lead the attack he dies in his sleep. A time-traveling Church attempts to save Flowers, but he suffers a fatal allergic reaction to the aspirin medication, and dies anyway. After Flowers' death, Tucker, who had been wearing regulation blue armor, claims his captain's armor for himself. In Season 5, it is revealed that one of the Blues is to be promoted to captain, and Grif's sister is sent to fill the discrepancy.

Captain Flowers returns in Episode 96, wearing Tucker's old blue armor, accompanied by a new alien. He is revealed to be O'Malley's current host, and expresses a strong interest in Junior. Andy reveals in Episode 97 that the Alien brought him back to life. In Episode 99, he talks to Vic Jr. where they discuss their plans concerning Junior. Once O'Malley leaves his body he rejoins the Blue team in the final episode, but is shot in the head before he has a chance to reveal the information key to the Blues' victory. Tucker says he is glad since he did not want to give back his armor.

The mysterious Freelancer program is mentioned numerous times throughout Red vs. Blue. Not much is known about the program, and its often questionable actions. It was one of the many programs trying to create the 'magic bullet' to win the Great War. At its conception, the program was designed to create a unit of exemplary soldiers, hiring 49 participant members. These members were all given codenames after the states of the USA (this excludes Florida which is implied to have encountered some fate). Not all agents have appeared in the series, but the ones who have are predominantly referred to by their codenames. Each member was also given an armor enhancement to give them more advantages in the field. The unit was also split into smaller divisions, with the first being assigned a partner AI for each member.

According to Delta and Washington, the program was largely experimental, and they experimented in copying several AIs from the original AI, Alpha, since they were only given one AI. They eventually discovered this couldn't be done, so they repeatedly tortured Alpha until it was forced to separate itself into fragments, in order to protect itself.[8] These fragments were then converted into the current Freelancer AIs. Each AI had unique traits, as the fragment represented different parts of the human mind the Alpha was based on; for example, Epsilon being the Alpha's memory, and Omega being its anger. The program then put its agents under various other experiments with their AIs to see how they performed; for example, the siblings North and South Dakota were partnered, and North received an AI while South did not. The operative known as Carolina, received two AIs. The AI fragments began to regard their benefactor, Alpha, as a messianic figure and eventually some of the AIs attempted to break into the lab where it was being held. As a result, Washington states that the Alpha (who is later revealed to be Church) was sent to Sidewinder, and, after Tex killed the Blue team there, Blood Gulch, the most remote locations that Project Freelancer could think of.

In Revelation, it is revealed that Red and Blue armies and outposts were created by Project Freelancer for the sole purpose of training Freelancers in live combat situations as well as test experimental weaponry. As a result, the Red and Blue armies consist only of incompetent or unwanted soldiers who would not be missed by the regular armed forces.

After several disasters, including the breakdown of the Epsilon AI and the rampancy of the Omega AI, the program was forced to cancel the AI part of the program. The other divisions did not receive partner AIs, and most of the AIs in the first division were removed and apparently destroyed, in the Recovery One mini-series, it is revealed that they were in fact recovered and stored.[9] Some time later, the program has underwent more changes. While still known as Project Freelancer, operatives working for the unit are now referred to as Recovery agents and it is unknown how many members of the original project remain. One member of the original project, York, is shown to be unemployed, while agents Wyoming and Tex operate as private mercenaries. Other agents, such as Washington, North, and South, still work for the program, and North and York both retain their AIs. In Reconstruction the Meta is searching for all the AI units and killing the other freelancers. Washington is sent to recovery beacons to retrieve AI before the Meta can. He is selected due to his refusal to allow himself to be implanted with an AI. His refusal is originally explained to be due to his trauma from previous AI experience, when in reality he is trying to keep AI away from his mind to hide the fact that he gained many of Epsilon's memories, memories of the torture done to Alpha.

The project is overseen by the Director, an unseen character, who Washington claims is responsible for everything that happened to the Alpha and all the events that followed. At present, the Director is the subject of a criminal investigation. This is the result from an investigation which discovered the torture of Alpha. The investigation was launched by another unseen character known as the Chairman.

The Director

  • Full Name: Dr. Leonard L. Church
  • Voice Actor: John Marshall Reed
  • Appearance: White male, with black hair with grey streaks, black goatee, wears black square full frame glasses
  • Appearances: The Recollection (voice only), Project Freelancer
  • Status: Alive, assumed to be incarcerated for fragmenting the Alpha AI

The Director is from Texas and is the head of Project Freelancer, and he is responsible for most of the scenarios that the Red and Blue armies encounter. He and the Chairman of the Oversight Subcommittee are heard in the introductions of most Reconstruction episodes, alternating in a series of messages. He apparently uses both armies as test subjects for his experiments. His own forces wear white armor and run the Command Center that the armies call for missions. Throughout Reconstruction, he was suspected by the Chairman of wrongdoing with his experiments and underwent a criminal investigation for his misuse of military equipment and the Alpha AI, eventually leading to his arrest. In the epilogue, it was revealed that the Director is the original Leonard Church, and the soldier and AI Church was based on his own mind. He is haunted by memories of Allison, a woman he loved who died some time previously, and it has been confirmed that he inadvertently implanted his memories of her into an AI which became Tex.

The Director is shown in person during the flashbacks in Seasons 9 and 10. However, his face is almost always obscured. During the flashbacks, the Director is shown to be a very strict and unforgiving commander, who is quick to punish failure and deliberately seeds rivalry among the Freelancers. He also shows a lack of concern for the safety of his soldiers, often caring more about the experimental equipment they are using rather than their lives. This attitude and his actions have caused many of the Freelancers, such as Tex, Washington, Carolina, and C.T., to utterly despise him.

The Counselor

  • Full Name: Unknown
  • Voice Actor: Asaf Ronen
  • Appearance: African-American Male, short hair
  • Appearances: Recovery One (voice only), The Recollection, Project Freelancer
  • Status: Alive

The Counselor, as named by Burnie Burns, is apparently a high-ranking member of the Freelancer Project. He is depicted as a bald African-American whose voice, due to being transmitted via com-link, has so far been slightly distorted.

The Counselor first appears in a flashback during part IV of Recovery One, where he interrogates Agent Washington about the failure of the Epsilon AI and informs him he is a candidate for Recovery. His next appearance is in Reconstruction, where he appears on a monitor and interrogates Pvt. Henderson before exchanging dialog with Agent Washington about where to begin his search for the Meta. He also speaks briefly with Washington in Chapter 19 and attempts to negotiate with the Meta. He is also seen during a flashback in Recreation debriefing Donut after his transfer from Blood Gulch. The Counselor typically speaks in a very soft voice, and tries to calm those he is speaking to. He infrequently advises against some of the Director's more erratic actions, but is usually ignored.

Vic

  • Full Name: Vickory[1]
  • Voice Actor: Randall Glass (episode 10); Burnie Burns thereafter
  • Appearances: Episodes 10, 20, 34, 38, 41, 51
  • Status: Alive (see Vic Jr.)

Vic is an AI whose computer terminal is located under Blood Gulch. He takes the personality of a sardonic and frequently unhelpful communications officer, and is the Blue Team's contact at Blue Command. A misunderstanding between him and a time-traveling Church retcons events and leaves Vic under the impression that Red and Blue are the same, so Vic also becomes the Red Team's contact at Red Command. The miscommunication is unrealized by Church, and unknown to him and the rest of the Reds and Blues, except for Tucker, who accidentally intercepts a communication between Sarge and Vic. However, no member of either team believes Tucker, as he is knocked unconscious when he makes the discovery, and Vic manages to contact Sarge and warn against listening to Tucker before the latter tells everyone. Vic is apparently working with O'Malley to some degree, although he seems to regard O'Malley as more of a necessary annoyance than a partner, and O'Malley hires an assassin called Wyoming to kill Tucker in order to preserve the secret that Red and Blue are the same.

Vic behaves like an annoying, ineffective technical support guy, constantly calling people "dude" and often offering obtuse and unhelpful advice and biting insults. He can be quite inappropriate, at one point forcing Doc into a lengthy conversation about Vic's sterility in episode 34. Burnie Burns notes that Vic was portrayed as over-the-top annoying from Episode 20 so the character would be memorable to viewers.[2]

Vic Jr.

  • Full Name: Virtual Intelligent Computer v20
  • Voice Actor: Burnie Burns
  • Appearances: Episodes 71, 77 (voice only), 80 (voice only), 93, 96, 99 (voice only), 100 (alternate ending)
  • Status: Alive

Vic Jr. originally appears at the end of Episode 71, when Church accidentally contacts him via radio, and he claims to be a descendant of the original Vic. Vic Jr. It is not explained how Vic was able to have descendants, as he had previously mentioned his vasectomy to Doc. Toward the beginning of Season 5, Church attempted to contact Vic Jr. for reinforcements, but Vic was not at his post and his message box turned out to be full after a lengthy and somewhat nonsensical set of instructions. He later contacted Church, telling him to immediately attack the Red base, going through the caves, then hanging up before Church could get any more information. Not long after, he is contacted by the Reds, but hangs up when he notices Simmons arriving at the surveillance console in the caverns. Simmons, unaware of who Sarge was talking to, says that Vic Jr. must be in the caverns somewhere. In Episode 99, Flowers is seen standing in front of the computer screen talking to Vic Jr. He appears in the second ending of episode 100, where Sarge calls him for reinforcements. Vic Jr. tells Sarge that he ruined the plan by destroying the ship, making Sarge destroy the underground computer in anger.

Burnie Burns notes that the mystery surrounding Vic and Vic Jr. was deliberately left unexplained, as the crew felt that sufficient information had been given in the episodes already for fans to draw their own conclusions. The most logical explanation, based on information discovered by the main characters towards the end of Revelation, is that Vic and Vic Jr. are the same person, and Vic simply pretended he was his own descendant to fool the Red and Blue teams into thinking they were in the future.[7] The organization to which Vic and Vic Jr. has not been revealed, though again, it is most logical that they were part of the Freelancer Program.

Four Seven Niner

  • Full Name: Unknown
  • Voice Actor: Lee Eddy
  • Appearances: Project Freelancer
  • Status: Alive

Four Seven Niner is a pilot working with Project Freelancer. She first appears in the trailer for Season 9, flying a Pelican, trying to get the injured Maine to treatment. The medical station "Angel On My Shoulder", repeatedly denies her clearance to dock and tells her to throttle down, but she is persistent and is eventually allowed to proceed at the request of the Director. Throughout Season 9 and Season 10, Four Seven Niner escorts the Freelancers on numerous missions and performs multiple extractions.

Four Seven Niner is shown to be sarcastic and free-thinking. When Carolina remarks that she is late for extraction, she responds by saying Carolina could take it out of her tip. In their proceeding escape on the Pelican, she responds to Agent South's complaints by sealing the pilot door in her face. She also despises AI, believing that they use their superior abilities to steal jobs from humans. However, she is quick to accept Delta when he admits that he does not know how to fly a Pelican.

Freelancer Agents

Washington

  • Full Name: David (last name unknown)
  • Codename: Washington
  • Voice Actor: Shannon McCormick
  • Armor Color: Steel with Yellow Trim; Cobalt with Yellow Trim
  • Armor Ability: Electromagnetic Pulse, Healing Unit (taken from York)
  • Implanted AI: Epsilon
  • Appearances: Recovery One, The Recollection, Project Freelancer
  • Status: Alive

Another member of the Special Ops unit that included Tex, Wyoming and York. Washington, originally David, is an embittered member of the unit who is infamous for an incident in the past where his AI, Epsilon, malfunctioned while still in his system; as a result of the accident, Washington supposedly distrusts AI constructs and refuses to allow them to be placed in his system (it is revealed in Reconstruction that his refusal is due to his fear of another AI discovering the memories of Alpha's torture that Washington acquired through Epsilon). According to Washington, Epsilon's mind allegedly broke down and the confused mental activity mixed with his own, and Washington had trouble distinguishing which thoughts were his and which were Epsilon's. Epsilon would later "commit suicide" while still in Washington's head. This left his sanity questionable and after the accident, Washington refused to be paired with AIs or even other agents again. His commanders eventually decided to send him on a mission to retrieve other AIs from their dead hosts, knowing full well he would not place them in his system.

He is the main protagonist of the mini-series Recovery One. He is also a major character in Reconstruction where he assists the main characters in stopping the Meta. He was imprisoned by the UNSC afterward but was offered freedom in exchange for the retrieval of the Epsilon AI, causing him to side against the main cast for most of Revelation. However, upon capturing an Epsilon copy of Texas, the Meta betrays Washington in order to pursue his original goal of gaining the full Alpha AI. Wash is subsequently injured by the Meta and saved by the Blood Gulch simulation soldiers. He then joins the Blue Team under the guise of Church, wearing Church's armor with his original yellow trim.

Washington has a habit of exaggerating when something ludicrous or inconceivable happens. One such event was when Caboose and Washington, while fighting the Meta, were taking cover behind a wall. When told to throw a spike grenade at the Meta, Caboose instead throws it into the wall between them, prompting Washington to say "That was the worst throw ever..... of all time", seconds before they moved to avoid the grenade's detonation. This becomes a running gag when Doc makes a poor attempt to throw a chain towards Wash, prompting Washington to say, "That was the second worst throw ever... of all time." This is continued when Washington fires a fuel rod projectile and, upon seeing it bounce away, states "This is the worst gun ever... of all time."

Although Washington is not as skilled in combat as higher-ranked freelancers such as Carolina, he is nevertheless a formidable opponent in a fight, being able to put Tex on the defensive whilst fighting against her with the Meta, single-handedly gun down two Hornets and hold his own against Agent Wyoming and the Meta. However, in the flashbacks, it is revealed that he only ranked sixth out of the top eight Freelancers, which prompts York to joke that Washington is the "second worst" fighter in their squad.

Soon after Epsilon-Church is released from his memory, it is revealed that Washington took armor color - newly fitted with yellow trim - his place on the Blue Team - "we need to even the teams" - and even his name and as Caboose's best friend, which enrages Epsilon-Church. Washington is shown to be fiercely loyal to his new team, aiming his gun at Carolina's head and growling at her to stand down when she threatens them.

In Chapter 6 of Season 10 he was shown without his helmet, however only the back of his head was shown, revealing that he has blonde hair.

Wyoming

  • Full Name: Reginald (last name unknown)
  • Voice Actor: Matt Hullum
  • Armor Color: White
  • Armor Ability: Temporal Distortion
  • Implanted AI: Gamma
  • Appearances: The Blood Gulch Chronicles, Out of Mind, Recovery One, Project Freelancer
  • Status: Deceased

A ruthless mercenary with a British accent—his character profile on the DVDs states his place of birth as "somewhere British"[10]Wyoming is hired by O'Malley to kill Tucker. Like Tex, Wyoming had been trained in a secret project, in which all the participants were paired with an AI and code named after one of the 49 American states still in existence at the time.[11] Little to anyone's knowledge until late in the series, Wyoming's AI had been Gamma.

Wyoming has a habit of giving an insincere "sorry" to his victims just prior to killing them,[12] but, in one instance, retracts this apology when Tex complains to him that he has destroyed what she considers her alien ship.[13] He also is never shown getting agitated, showing no signs of annoyance when he can't spot his target during an assassination - instead, he seems impressed.

During Wyoming's search for Tucker, one of his targets, he single-handedly eliminates the entire Sidewinder Red Team (Tex had already killed the Sidewinder Blues before the events of the series proper, as depicted in a flashback in episode 10). In episode 43, he is also responsible for shooting a rocket launcher out of Tucker's hands, thereby preventing Tucker from killing Church before the bomb inside the latter explodes (although according to one of the time-traveling Churches, this act had little consequence, as the present was destroyed either way). In the middle of season 4, the quest team discovers that Wyoming has survived the explosion: He appears in the temple in the Great Freezing Plains and kills the Alien and destroys his ship. He then runs from the scene, pursued by a furious Tex.

As part of the same super-soldier program as Tex, Wyoming was granted not only an AI but an armor enhancement as well. This enhancement is revealed during Wyoming's attack on the Blues (occupying the Red Base at the time) when he continually loops a particular stretch of time in order to modify events in his favour. His use of the time looping is discovered by Tucker, who was aware of the time loop thanks to a side-effect of carrying the energy sword. Tucker eventually lulled Wyoming into complacency and stabbed him with the sword early in the loop, killing him. However, he and Church quickly discovered that as with the time loop that Church once experienced, several copies of Wyoming were being created and were congregating under the Red Base. In the resulting chaos, Gary was disabled and, to the surprise of the Blues, the Reds attacked the Wyomings, leaving only one alive. Cornering him, the Blues discovered the villain's ultimate plot. The final Wyoming is then dispatched by Tex, while Church tries to broadcast to hide Tex from Omega. Tex then uses Wyoming's helmet to obtain coordinates for the ship in which she later escapes. The helmet is believed to be destroyed along with everybody else when the ship appears to explode. However, it would later appear that the helmet survived, as the ship is known to have crashed at Outpost 17-B.

In Reconstruction it is revealed that the ship crashed landed in Outpost-17B (Valhalla) and Wyoming's armor enhancement was taken by the Meta and is now capable of distorting time.

In Season 9 he is seen being fighting Tex along with Maine and York in a training session where he and the other two are beaten repeatedly by Tex at staff-fighting, hand-to-hand combat and "paint-ball". In the last round of eight, all of which Tex won, he and Maine use live ammo, Wyoming even managing to hit her in the shoulder during the fight, but are still beaten by Tex. He is depicted without his helmet in episode 6 of Season 10, revealing he has black hair and a handlebar mustache.

The auditions for Wyoming are described by the cast as "terrible"; with the exception of Gus Sorola, every cast member auditioned for the role doing various accents-for example, Joel Heyman performed a Cockney accent, Burnie Burns an Australian accent-and eventually Matt Hullum's British accent was chosen because everything else was so bad.[14]

York

  • Full Name: Unknown
  • Codename: New York
  • Voice Actor: Sean Duggan
  • Armor Color: Tan with White Trim
  • Armor Ability: Healing Unit
  • Implanted AI: Delta
  • Appearances: Out of Mind, Recovery One, Project Freelancer
  • Status: Deceased

New York, referred to as York, is another member of the AI experimental program. York is an infiltration specialist who seems to have become unemployed since the program closed down. Somewhere in the past his left eye was severely injured in an attempt to defeat Tex while Omega was still implanted in her. Despite his armor's healing unit, his eye did not heal, nor did it later save his life.

He is found by Tex during Part 3 of the miniseries Out of Mind, trying to break into a store. It is revealed that he still had Delta. Here he accepts Tex's proposal of infiltrating Omega's base. At the end of Out of Mind, he and Tex attempt a raid on Omega's base. The two are caught in a firefight against Wyoming and two of his minions. As the two scramble for cover, York is shot twice in the chest by Wyoming, and Delta reports that the bullets were fatal. The AI stays with York and manages to tricks Wyoming with a hologram of Tex. Delta chooses to stay with York until his death, rather than go with Tex, appearing to perish with him as the armor shuts down. The healing unit in his armor would later be retrieved, along with Delta, by Washington.

He appears in the trailer episode for Season 9, where he removes his helmet, revealing the broken eye, and brown/red hair. This marks him as the first character aside from Vic/Vic Jr. to have his face fully revealed. In Season 9, the origin of his eye wound is revealed. During the paintball fight with Tex, a live grenade meant for Tex is detonated next to him. He is also shown to have some kind of relationship with Carolina, who inquires about his eye when he returns from the hospital. York is shown to have a sarcastic personality. For example, while attempting to organize his team against Tex in the training mission, he makes several sarcastic remarks when his suggestions are ignored. He is also the first Freelancer to officially receive an AI.

South

  • Full Name: Unknown
  • Full Codename: South Dakota
  • Voice Actor: Shana Merlin
  • Armor Color:Violet with Lime Green Trim
  • Armor Ability: Domed Energy Shield (taken from North)
  • Implanted AI: Originally none, later Delta (taken from York)
  • Appearances: Recovery One, Reconstruction, Project Freelancer
  • Status: Deceased

South Dakota, referred to as South, is another member of the freelancer operation in which Tex, Wyoming, York and Washington enlisted. South signed up with her twin brother, who was appropriately given the codename North Dakota, or North. Unlike some of the other operatives, however, South was not given an AI partner; according to South, there was more than one group of soldiers for implantation, and after complications with the first group, specifically Washington himself, no more AIs were given to operatives in the next group, including South.[15] Later, Delta states she was part of an experiment alongside her brother, North, to analyze how some agents without AIs would respond to working with agents who did have AIs. She still, however, received an armor enhancement, able to create a domed energy shield. She had told Washington that this enhancement had been stolen, but this was not the case.

South's first appearance is in part two of the mini-series Recovery One, where she is encountered by Washington alongside her deceased brother. South claims that she found North already dead when she arrived, and North's AI, Theta, was already missing. Washington called his commanders to let them know of the situation while South has a long monologue about growing up with North and wondering what life will be like now that he's dead. Washington is ordered to kill South, but instead keeps her with him, as he believes the freelancers are being hunted and their equipment, including their AIs, are being stolen. As he refuses to have an AI implanted into himself, he resolves to giving South the Delta AI he had already recovered so Delta can be protected. He orders her to use a nearby ship to escape, but she shoots him in the back so she can make an easier getaway from their enemy. She then radios the same commander, and it is revealed she also operates under the codename Recovery Two, and that she was using Washington to draw out the enemy so that command could devise a strategy against it with the promise of an AI as a reward. She then refuses to return to base, flying away with Delta. Command threatens to locate her with other agents, but South claims she is more worried about something else.

In the opening episode of Reconstruction, South's whereabouts are listed on a communications screen as still unknown. A very much-alive Washington states his desire to hunt her down, and his superior states that they are not far from letting him, also feeling the sting of her betrayal, although Washington harbors some resentment towards Command as well, given that South was under their orders when she attacked him. In Chapter 4 it shows South and Delta are following Washington, but unbeknownst to them, the Meta is as well and spots them, coming up behind them at the end of the episode. In the next episode, Washington receives a call from his commanders alerting him to the fact that South is in critical danger, as shown by a distress beacon sent by Delta.

When Washington and the others arrive, they find South under heavy fire from the Meta, using her energy shield enhancement to protect herself, but she is attempting to abandon Delta and her enhancement so she could escape. Caboose guns her down and after the Meta leaves, Washington interrogates her. According to Delta, South also betrayed her brother North much like how she betrayed Washington and Delta. Delta says that there is a high probability she would betray them again, so Washington kills her, then destroys her body per Recovery procedure. Although her armor is destroyed as well, it is shown that the Meta is also in possession of a shield enhancement as shown in chapter 20 of Revelation.

Season 9 has featured South as an active operative under Project Freelancer, carrying out a mission with her brother North, during which they frequently employ a tag-team style of combat, perfectly in sync with each other. She's much more impulsive in her actions, though, ignoring half of his advice, charging into most situations without thinking too far ahead, and much more eager to get her hands dirty. However, this same impulsive attitude often causes her to make bad decisions, forcing the Director to ban her from future missions. In Season 10, South is allowed to participate in missions again, though she is clearly bitter over the fact that she will not receive an AI like North did.

South is thus far the third of the Freelancers and the first female to remove their helmet during the course of Season 9, the second being her brother North and the first being York. She is shown to be a blonde headed woman with what appears to be a large scar on her left cheek.

North

  • Full Name: Unknown
  • Codename: North Dakota
  • Voice Actor: John Erler[16]
  • Armor Color: Purple with Green Trim[17]
  • Armor Ability: Domed Energy Shield
  • Implanted AI: Theta
  • Appearances: Recovery One, Project Freelancer
  • Status: Deceased

North Dakota, referred to as North, is South's twin brother, enlisting in the Freelancer Program at the same time. He is only seen before Season 9 after having been killed, offscreen, by the Meta, when Washington follows the distress signal sent out by North's armor. When Washington arrives, he finds North and South together, South having claimed that she had heard a cry from North and found him already deceased. Like York, North still had his AI partner, Theta, in his possession at the time of his death, but Washington and South surmise that it was stolen by his attacker. While surveying his dead body, South gives a lengthy spiel about growing up with North and how the two of them were both so alike in almost every way.

It is revealed in Reconstruction that South actually betrayed him in a similar way she betrayed Washington, in order to lure the Meta into stealing North's armor components, giving South the time she needed to flee. Delta claims she lured him into a position where he could be killed as opposed to killing him directly.

Season 9 has featured North as an active operative under Project Freelancer, carrying out a mission with his sister South, during which they frequently employ a tag-team style of combat, perfectly in sync with each other. He's much more methodical in his actions than his sister, attempting to rein her in by being her voice of reason, but he also appears to have no problem adapting to sudden changes in the plan. In Season 10, it is revealed that he was given Theta due to North's caring attitude and Theta's shyness.

North has provided an example of what happens when the enhanced armor abilities are utilized without the assistance of an AI unit. Applying a domed energy shield on top of a Pelican mid-flight to block oncoming missiles, North nearly knocks the ship out of the sky, almost cancelling out the crash he just prevented, and afterward collapses with his armor overheating. Wash later points out how dangerous such an action is, citing the vaguely dismal outcome of Agent Utah's similar actions as an example, implying the armor abilities are still in early experimental stages. In Season 10, Delta references the incident saying that the attempt had a 0.1% chance of success.

North is the second of the Freelancer operatives to remove his helmet to show his actual face during the course of Season 9 (York was the first to do so in the trailer). He is a blonde man having recently sustained an injury to his left cheek during the mission. Interestingly, his sister, South, has a scar on her left cheek as well.

Maine

File:Meta RVB.jpg
The Meta, shown with seven AI: (clockwise from top left) Delta (green), Sigma (orange), Gamma (blue), Omega (grey), Theta (blue and red) Eta and Iota(yellow, it is revealed that they can join together), and Tex (light grey).
  • Full Name: Unknown
  • Codename: Maine, "The Meta"
  • Voice Actor: Matt Hullum
  • Armor Color: White with Brown Trim (as Meta), White with Orange Trim (as Maine)
  • Armor Ability: Original Super Strength, Cloaking (from Tex), Temporal Distortion (from Wyoming), Domed Energy Shield (from South)
  • Implanted AI: Sigma (from Carolina)
  • Appearances: Recovery One, The Recollection, Project Freelancer
  • Status: Deceased

The Meta, the primary antagonist of the Recollection trilogy, is a mysterious character, who is hunting down Freelancers, killing them, and taking their equipment and AIs. The Meta wears a brown-on-white color scheme because he scavenges the armor of those it kills as well as the equipment.[18] The Meta has an inability to speak due to an injury to the throat he sustained in earlier missions.

During episode one of Reconstruction, he referred to as "The Meta" by Agent Washington and the Counselor, in reference to a cryptic message scratched into a wall of Outpost 17-B's Red base. It is later revealed by Command the Meta is a former Freelancer named Agent Maine. During the events of Reconstruction he managed to obtain seven AIs before losing them all when Washington sets off an EMP at Freelancer command.

The Meta was later revealed to have survived his encounter with Washington, appearing at the Blue Base in Valhalla during Recreation. Donut mistakes him for a new member of the Blue Team after several failed attempts on his life. He then attacks the Red Base, but was driven off momentarily by Lopez. The Reds later attempt to flee and steal The Meta's jeep, however they fail and find themselves cornered. Before he can attack Agent Washington appears, telling The Meta to stand down. The Meta grudgingly obeys.

In Revelation, the Meta now has difficulties using his armor enhancements due to losing his AIs. The Meta later captures Tex's AI and betrays Washington, using the captured Tex to power its cloaking field. Later, when the Reds and Tucker attack, the Meta manages to fight them off, but Sarge tricks him and attaches the Warthog's tow-hook to his chest. On Sarge's signal Grif and Simmons push the Warthog off the edge of a nearby cliff. Sarge manages to dislodge the capture unit from Meta's back just before he is yanked off his feet by the tow cable and pulled over the edge, where he falls to his death.

The Meta is shown to be less skilled in hand-to-hand combat than other Freelances such as Tex and Carolina, relying primarily on basic punches and wrestling moves rather than martial arts; however, he more than makes up for this through his strength and superhuman endurance. He is consistently shown to continue fighting despite suffering debilitating injuries that would cripple, if not outright kill, anyone else. Such injuries include being stabbed in the back and the chest, and getting impaled on an energy sword. During a mission as Maine in Season 9, he took a sniper bullet to the chest and had an entire magazine of bullets emptied into his neck before falling off of a moving truck and getting hit by another truck, knocking him off the bridge entirely. It is this injury to his neck that is thought to be the reason why he does not speak in other seasons. His strength is terrifying; he is capable of lifting a warthog with little effort, tear apart a bumper with his bare hands and crush a soldier's face with one punch

In Season 9, Agent Maine can be heard speaking briefly several times and possesses a very deep and rough voice. In episode 6 of Season 10, he is shown without his helmet, revealing that he is bald, yet his face was obscured by the shadows and Sigma, the back of his head is clearly seen in Episode 18 revealing that he has the "The Meta" symbol tattooed on the back of his head. In Season 10, it is shown that Carolina gave Maine her AI, Sigma, so he could communicate with the others. It is theorized that Maine went insane and turned into the Meta due to the fact that he was not intended to be paired with Sigma, leading Carolina to believe the creation of the Meta was her fault.

Carolina

  • Full Name: Unknown
  • Voice Actor: Jen Brown
  • Armor Color: Teal with White Trim
  • Armor Ability: Chameleon Armor and Super Speed
  • Implanted AIs: Eta and Iota
  • Appearances: Project Freelancer
  • Status: Alive

Carolina was a female member of the AI experimental program that participated in one of the many case studies near the programs end. Unique to the program, Carolina was implanted with not one, but two artificial intelligence units to see what would happen to her. Delta later mentions to Church and Caboose in Reconstruction Chapter 8 that the experience of having three minds in her was too difficult, and she was not able to function very well. When relating the events of Out of Mind to Church in Season 5, Tex mentioned that Carolina was already dead. Season 10 reveals that the two AIs she was implanted with were Eta and Iota.

She appears in Season 9, assisting North and South Dakota in an escape. She displays the ability to change armor color, and later in another mission she demonstrates the ability to run at inhuman speeds. She usually uses these in subtle ways, disguising her armor as the opposing soldiers to slip in amongst them, or very briefly activating the super-speed equipment to dodge enemy fire. She was shown to be the best of the Freelancers until Tex turned up. Carolina is the fifth freelancer so far to be shown without her helmet, she is depicted as a young Caucasian red-haired woman with green eyes.

Carolina is next to Tex, the most proficient fighter in the series, being able to overwhelm dozens of soldiers with just her martial arts skills and gain the advantage over two soldiers capable of defeating Maine. Her status as the top freelancer is indicative of her combat prowess

In Season 9, it is revealed that she is still alive. She helps the Blues and Reds infiltrate a military compound to find the storage unit Epsilon is locked in. After telling the Blues and Reds how to free Epsilon from the storage unit she confronts Epsilon (calling him Alpha) and states that she needs him to help kill the Director. In Season 10, she searches for clues to the Director's location with Washington, while becoming increasing frustrated by the personalities and behavior of the Reds, Blues and Epsilon. However when Epsilon shows her a recording of York expressing his feelings for her (which she most likely reciprocated), she becomes much trusting and fair, even laughing when Epsilon displays awkwardness at the situation.

C.T.

  • Full Name: Connie (last name unknown)
  • Codename: Connecticut, initially shortened to "Connie"
  • Voice Actor: Samantha Ireland
  • Armor Color: Brown with White Trim
  • Armor Ability: Holographic decoy
  • Implanted AI: None
  • Appearances: Project Freelancer
  • Status: Deceased

C.T. was a member of Project Freelancer mistaken for the C.T. the reds and blues met at the desert. C.T. has been shown to be much more unnerved and anxious about the rankings and missions that go on in Project Freelancer. She also is seen with her helmet off, revealing her to be a Caucasian women with brown hair and brown eyes. She shows a wariness of the reason they're pushed as far as they are and to what end, and especially so regarding how they're pitted against each other, suspecting that the rankings based on their action in the field has an underhanded motive behind it. Prior to being called C.T. it seems she was known amongst the Freelancers as "Connie," (most likely simply short for Connecticut) but during a conversation with Wash she snaps at being called as such, feeling it sounds childish. It's here that she makes a conscious decision to be referred to as "C.T." from then on. In episode 19 of Season 9, C.T. is seen using a computer terminal to converse with a suspicious figure, but is interrupted by Agent Washington.

In Season 10, C.T. is shown dropping onto a scrap recycling plant with the rest of the team but disappears during the ensuing fight. She is then found giving information to an Insurrectionist who refers to her as "Connie" possibly inferring that the two have some kind of relationship. At an escape bunker, C.T. and the Leader are hiding out from the freelancers. C.T. insisted that the two should escape, but the Leader didn't want to leave without his teammates. Tex and Carolina break into the bunker and C.T. tries to explain to them why she left Project Freelancer but the two still don't believe her and a battle ensures. Tex ends up mortally wounding C.T. with the Leader's tomahawks and the Leader manages to drag her into an escape pod, escaping the freelancers. As C.T. dies in his arms, she hands the Leader a device containing a location to where an artifact is, before she passes away. The Leader then takes her armor, explaining how "she" appeared at the alien temple in the present day.

Utah

  • Full Name: Unknown
  • Codename: Utah
  • Voice Actor: Unknown
  • Armor Color: Grey
  • Armor Ability: Domed Energy Shield
  • Implanted AI: None
  • Appearances: Season 9 (Deleted Scene, Chapter 12.5)
  • Status: Deceased

Agent Utah is briefly mentioned by Washington in the aftermath of North's hasty decision to use enhanced armor abilities in the field, which are presumably still in early experimental stages. Utah is provided as an example of how dangerous it is to use said equipment without the assistance of an AI unit, as during training it's implied such an action did not end well for Utah, possibly leading to death or severe injury.

In a deleted scene, Utah is shown to have been testing his bubble shield in training. Despite activating the armor enhancement in Project Freelancer facilities under a supervised environment, the shield only materialized around his head, quickly forcing him to pass out. This implies his death.

Georgia

  • Full Name: Unknown
  • Codename: Georgia
  • Voice Actor: None
  • Armor Color: Unknown
  • Armor Ability: Unknown
  • Implanted AI: None
  • Appearances: Season 10 (Mentioned Only)
  • Status: MIA

Agent Georgia was briefly mentioned by Agent Carolina before the team jumped out of the Pelican during the attack on the U.N.S.C. Scrap Metal Recycling Station. Carolina said that the team should use their jet packs sparingly or end up like Georgia. When Wash asked what happened to Georgia, South tells him that no one knows, as he was never found. He is again mentioned in episode three by York when the Freelancers are flying on jet packs to bone valley. York is surprised at this course of action because of what happened to Georgia. When Wash asks what it was that happened to Georgia, York replies that Wash doesn't want to know. In episode 4, Washington tries to escape a nuclear bomb by entering the pelican which brought them to the Scrap Metal Yard, but refuses to use his jet pack despite the warning of his team mates as he does not want to end up like Georgia.

Unknown Blue Soldier

  • Full Name: Unknown
  • Codename: Unknown
  • Voice Actor: None
  • Armor Color: Blue
  • Armor Ability: Unknown
  • Implanted AI: Unknown
  • Appearances: Project Freelancer
  • Status: Alive

The Unknown Blue Soldier first appears in Season 9, listening to the plans about infiltrating an Insurrectionist building. He later appears in the Pelican that picks up the team, sitting beside Wyoming. He reappears in Season 10, with Wyoming, as they scout out the Longshore Shipyards. When they infiltrate the base to pursue the Leader and C.T., the Leader realizes he is being followed and throws a tomahawk, scoring a direct hit on the Blue Soldier and knocking him to the ground, head first. However, the Blue Soldier quickly recovers, pulls the tomahawk from his shoulder and throws it at the Insurrectionist Turret Soldiers pinning down the Freelancers. However, the tomahawk ends up falling short of its target. He then shoots a nearby crane arm, which knocks the Insurrectionists into a pit, where they are crushed by a falling crate.

Artificial Intelligences

Created by Project Freelancer, the AI's are programs that are partnered with the Freelancers for improved performance (similar to Cortana in the original Halo). The original AI, Alpha (Church), was tortured in order to split its programming, creating new AIs. Each possessed a different fragment of the Alpha's personality. However, some of these AIs malfunctioned, resulting in events like Epsilon's suicide and Omega's rampage. This brought the end of the implantation process. In Reconstruction, the Meta seeks to possess the AIs and armor upgrades of all other Freelancers, and he eventually collected seven. These AIs were destroyed by an EMP at the end of Reconstruction. The fragmented Alpha AIs currently survive as memories inside the Epsilon unit, as revealed in Revelation.

Omega

  • Alternate Names: O'Malley[1]
  • Voice Actor: Burnie Burns (default voice, and while possessing Tex), Joel Heyman (while possessing Caboose), Matt Hullum (while possessing Doc)
  • A.I. Fragment: Rage
  • Color: Black
  • Appearances: The Blood Gulch Chronicles, Reconstruction, Season 10
  • Status: Deleted

The common enemy of both the Red and Blue Teams, O'Malley is the primary antagonist of the Blood Gulch Chronicles, and an AI that was put into Tex's armor during training in order to make her more aggressive and dangerous. According to the agents of the program, O'Malley's real name is Omega. The name O'Malley originates from a portmanteau of Omega and Tex's real name, Allison (Om'Alli). The Omega AI, Tex claims, was a program designed to enhance her skills and violent attitude. According to Agent Washington, he developed the ability to jump via radio to other hosts entirely of his own device, and would jump from person to person numerous times while a part of the program, although Washington notes he had a preference for Tex; Wyoming, too, notes that Omega strongly desires to be reunited with Tex.

O'Malley is sadistically evil and aggressive, and at times can come across as a parody of over-the-top, megalomaniacal supervillains. O'Malley wants to annihilate both teams, either to destroy or take over the universe, and to "crush every living soul into dust". He expresses these desires in long monologues accompanied by extended fits of evil laughter and extreme close-up shots of his visor. He is also able to understand Lopez's Spanish, but needs help to issue commands to Lopez's robot army, and occasionally mispronounces words (pronouncing nuclear as nucular and struggling with the word fruition).

Toward the end of season 1, just before Tex attacks the Reds for the second time, O'Malley assesses that Tex has little chance of survival and leaps via radio into Caboose. Under O'Malley's possession, Caboose periodically makes threatening statements in "a scary voice," but O'Malley is never able to take full control. After being forced out of Caboose by Church and Tex, O'Malley possesses Doc, of whom he is able to take almost total control and use to further his own agenda. He seems to work for Vic to some degree, hiring Wyoming to assassinate Tucker, claiming Vic will give them a bonus for killing him, but it is unknown if this deal was permanent or temporary.

O'Malley's confrontation with the Alien near the end of season 3 leaves his fate ambiguous, but it is revealed in episode 73 that Lopez, Doc and he were still alive and have been hiding in a secret lair. In the following episode, O'Malley, Doc, and Lopez return to Blood Gulch, at the request of Church, to diagnose Tucker's illness. In return, O'Malley demands something to be named later. He never does name his price, however, as at the end of Season Four, he takes his chances and jumps via radio out of Doc.

Throughout most of season 5 his location is unknown; the Blue Team assumes he is in Sheila because of her erratic and violent behavior. The suspicion then falls on Church when Sheila reveals O'Malley's current location to be "the Blue leader." This is quickly dispelled by Church in episode 96 as he was never officially promoted, and it is then revealed that O'Malley is currently inhabiting Captain Butch Flowers. It is ultimately revealed that he is intending to infect Junior as soon as the latter takes possession of Tucker's sword, so that he can control Junior because of an Alien prophecy in which they believe that a Great Destroyer will come and destroy humanity. They believe that The Great Destroyer is Junior because he is half human and half Covenant. They hope to exploit Junior by controlling him, via Omega, in hopes for a long term victory against the Covenant. In episode 100, after Tex begins broadcasting on an open channel to lure O'Malley, the AI instead jumps into Simmons, leading to his being knocked out by Tex, and continues to jump from character to character. When he finally jumps into Tex, they take the ship and begin to lift off, but Andy, who was already placed on the ship by the Red team, detonates, apparently killing everyone on it, including O'Malley. However, in Reconstruction, Washington and his superior officer ponder whether O'Malley is actually alive and has been stolen by a mysterious new enemy. In Chapter 16, it revealed that Omega is a fragment of the Alpha's emotions: anger. He was meant to have a larger role in chapter 19, where a battle scene between the Meta and the Recovery Agents is shown. One projected idea was Omega possessing a Recovery Agent and using the body to kill other agents.[19]

In episode 2 of Revelation, Washington comments that O'Malley has "been accounted for." He is also mentioned to survive with all the AI in Epsilon's locked memories, using the memory of Delta to communicate for brief periods with the other Blues and Reds, mainly Caboose.

Omega is one of the few characters to be voiced by more than one actor; several of the production crew, including Burnie Burns, have claimed they prefer the O'Malley presented by Matt Hullum, rather than the O'Malley presented by Joel Heyman. Hullum brings about more depth to the role, and the O'Malley presented by him has been regarded as a combination of Stewie Griffin, Dr. Evil, Gollum and many other villains.[2] In the final episode, O'Malley jumps to nearly everyone in the canyon, and is then voiced by each character's respective voice actor.

Omega appears in chapter 15 of Season 10. He is shown to be a much more menacing character than in Blood Gulch Chronicles. He speaks in a low guttural growl in an angry tone. During Tex's sparring match with Carolina, Tex orders Omega to log off and stay out of the fight, much to the latter's anger, snarling "Next time". Omega then reveals the true extent of his malice when Carolina breaks down due to the strain of the two A.Is in her mind. He goads Tex to kill Carolina, but Tex resists.

Gamma

  • Alternate Name: Gary
  • Voice Actor: Mac OS X voice synthesizer, System Voice "Fred"
  • A.I. Fragment: Deceit
  • Color: Blue
  • Appearances: The Blood Gulch Chronicles, Reconstruction, Season 10
  • Status: Deleted

Gary[20] is a computer, similar to Durandal in Marathon, that Church meets after being propelled into the past. He claims the facility is the housing facility of the Great Weapon, which is later revealed to be the fortress that O'Malley occupies in the future. In the future, Gary is seen as the base computer of the fortress, although he does not talk until Church arrives there. He is fond of jokes, and sometimes uses knock-knock jokes to communicate instead of giving a straight answer. Claiming to have been built by the race of the Alien, Gary knows nothing about his creators, but only of The Great Destroyer and his race, the Shisno, a pejorative of humans described as the equivalent of the feces (of the feces) of the foulest-smelling animal on the planet.

Upon learning of The Great Prophecy, Church has Gary research and build a teleporter to transport him back to Blood Gulch in the recent past, in an attempt to prevent everything that has gone wrong. At near full processing power, Gary takes slightly over a millennium to finish this task, having spent some processing time telling jokes.

Despite his humorous disposition, Gary is polite and well-mannered, which makes his relationship with Andy very tense. At one point, the two bicker with each other, and Gary gets irritated at Andy's uncouth nature. But when the "Sacred Quest" team leave the fortress, and Church returns to Blood Gulch, Gary is left behind, and nothing is seen of him until Season 5.

After learning the name of Wyoming's AI (Gamma), Church concludes that Gary is actually Gamma and not an alien computer. Church phones Gary, and after an awkward conversation of Gary saying he is not Gamma, Gary hangs up, and has a short conversation with Wyoming himself, who instructs Gary to "hop in." It is later apparent that Gary used Wyoming's special time traveling ability to transport himself back in time to contact Church.

At the end of Episode 97 Gary is now in the tank which previously housed Sheila's AI. He begins to shoot at the Blues under the command of Wyoming, but Tucker, taking control of the situation, plugs a cable from the ship housing Sheila into the tank and downloads Gary into the ship, where Sheila manages to lock him behind a firewall. His fate beyond this is unclear. In Reconstruction, the ship that crash landed in Outpost 17-B is confirmed to be the same that Gary was in episode 100 of the Blood Gulch Chronicles, apparently not exploding, but rather crash landing. Afterwards, the Meta took both Gamma and the armor enhancement in Wyoming's helmet. In Chapter 16 of Reconstruction, it is revealed Gamma was the deceitful fragment of the Alpha AI. Gamma, along with the other AI the Meta collected, was seemingly destroyed in an EMP blast at the end of Reconstruction.

In chapter 16 of Revelation the computer that Gary is normally represented by is seen while Tex and Epsilon Church are talking.

Also in Revelation it is revealed that all the AI survive in Epsilon's locked memories, using the memory of Delta as communicate for brief periods with the other Blues and Reds, mainly Caboose.

Delta

  • Alternate Name: D
  • Voice Actor: Mark Bellman
  • A.I. Fragment: Logic
  • Color: Green
  • Appearances: Out of Mind, Recovery One, The Recollection, Project Freelancer
  • Status: Deleted

Another AI created by the program, Delta (or "D" for short) is the AI originally assigned to the York. Unlike the other agents, York somehow retained his AI after the program closed. Unlike some of the other AIs, Delta does not pose a threat to anyone. Instead, he is extremely logical and analytical, to the point of being largely unfamiliar with human emotions. Matt Hullum has described Delta as "largely devoid of personality."[21] Delta is also polite and well-mannered, even bidding good luck to his enemy Wyoming when he believed himself to be shutting down. York often asks for Delta's advice on certain situations, such as whether or not to help Tex, and uses Delta to watch his left side during combat due to his visual impairment. Burnie Burns also notes that Delta was useful in Recovery One as a way of reminding the audience indirectly of the various rules of the freelancer program and the AIs.[22]

Delta often appears as a holographic miniature soldier beside York's head; the green glow was created in-game by using the plasma pistol according to Burnie Burns.[7] However, Delta can modify his appearance to match the situation. When threatened by Tex, he went "on alert" and his glow turned red. Later, in a ploy to trick Wyoming, Delta managed to change his size and color, and appears as a hologram of Tex.

After York was fatally wounded at O'Malley's base, Delta decide to stay with him, having picked up a fond attachment to his host. When an operative dies their armor shuts down the AIs within them, and so it was believed Delta perished with York. However, some time later, Agent Washington comes to collect Delta, who is alive and confused as to why he was not shut down. Washington that AIs are too expensive to simply destroy, so they are instead encrypted for a Recovery Agent to pick them up, after which they are stored. Washington then removes Delta from York's suit and takes him away. Delta is later implanted in South, as Washington dislikes having an AI due to a past incident. Agent Washington intends for her to assist him in confronting an unknown enemy that has been hunting the remaining freelancers. Following this, South betrays Washington, shooting him and taking Delta. It is then revealed this was part of commands plan. However, she betrays command as well and escapes with Delta, all she wanted was an AI.

In Reconstruction, South is still shown to be in possession of Delta, who warns her about the risks of following Washington. They are attacked by the Meta, and South attempts to abandon Delta as bait, but she is stopped by Caboose. He is then given to Caboose as a new host just before Washington, on Delta's advice, kills South. Not long after, the Meta finds an unconscious Caboose, who split off from the group on Delta's insistence. Several other AIs appear around Delta as the Meta collects him, welcoming him while he remains silent. In Caboose's mind, Church discovers critical information that Delta left in order to help Washington: the message, "Memory is the key." Caboose's mental projection of Delta also warns Church that the next time they meet, the AI may not want his help. In Chapter 16, it is revealed that Delta is the logic fragment of Alpha which the Alpha shed so as to not be able to analyze the suffering it endured.

Delta reappears briefly in Revelation, when Epsilon-Church is temporarily disabled. He reveals that he and the other collected AI fragments have been able to secretly maintain their existence within Epsilon's memories. However, he fears Epsilon will eventually discover their existence. Delta then warns Caboose that Epsilon is trying to regain his memories, some of which could drive him to insanity again.

Epsilon

  • Alternate Name: Church
  • Voice Actor: Burnie Burns
  • A.I. Fragment: Memory
  • Color: Cobalt
  • Appearances: Recovery One, Reconstruction (storage unit), Recreation (as Delta and Epsilon-Church), Revelation (as Epsilon-Church), Project Freelancer (as Epsilon-Church)
  • Status: Active

Epsilon was originally the AI partner of Agent Washington at the start of the program. Physically, he appeared as a holographic soldier much the same as Delta, except he glowed with a blue luminescence. Epsilon is somewhat infamous among the soldiers of Project Freelancer, as he is revealed to be the first AI to break down. While the others that went rampant were soon to follow, South claims that all plans for future AIs were put on hiatus because of Epsilon. He is described as having committed suicide, the only known case of such an occurrence, while still inside Washington's helmet, and thus, while still interfacing directly with Washington's mind. Washington notes that as Epsilon broke down, he had trouble distinguishing which thoughts were his own and which belonged to Epsilon. The event left Washington bitter towards AIs and other agents in general. However, at the end of episode 15 of Reconstruction, it is revealed that some remnant of Epsilon is still intact, within the AI vault at the Freelancer Outpost. Washington gives him to Caboose and instructs the latter to turn him over to the authorities. In the final episode, Caboose manages to save Epsilon from an impending EMP wave. At the end of Reconstruction Caboose is shown to have taken Epsilon's container to safety at Blue Base. However, it is revealed in episode 4 of Recreation that Caboose is attempting to combine Epsilon with Tex's body and Sheila to create a "super best friend", but has so far been unsuccessful. Later, in episode 6, it was revealed that Epsilon has the ability to maintain memories of anything it is told, and as such has memories of all the Alpha fragments. Thanks in part to the Red Team's hologram room at their base in Valhalla, Epsilon takes on the appearance of Delta and orders Caboose on a mission to the desert Tucker and Donut were sent to prior to Reconstruction.

Later, Caboose creates a new body for Epsilon using a robotic avatar, dubbed Epsilon Church. Epsilon Church has residual memories of the original Church he was based on, therefore inheriting his voice and personality. However, his memories of Alpha's life on Blood Gulch are limited to the stories that Caboose had told him. In his new avatar he possesses some form of telekinesis and a laser that fires from his optical unit. In Revelation, it's revealed that Epsilon Church is suffering from periodic memory flashes of his past life, and they becoming more frequent. For reasons unknown, Epsilon Church is unconsciously hostile to Washington, automatically firing his laser just at the sight of him. After leading Caboose to a secret Freelancer facility to find Tex, he brings her back to life with the aid of Caboose. Epsilon Church transfers himself into a new human-like robot body, whose armor is exactly the same color as the old Church's. He then confronts her in his new body after she brutally beats the Reds and Tucker, only for her to start beating him over the head with his robotic avatar. After Caboose activates a lock down on both the Reds, Blues and Tex's armor so as to stop her from abusing them, Epsilon convinces both sides to cease hostilities despite Tex's antagonistic attitude. He later accompanies her to a Freelancer base after she announces her departure from the facility. However Tex had anticipated he would do so and shoots him, so as to activate his recovery beacon, drawing Washington and The Meta to them. After the Meta captures her in Epsilon's former holding unit, Church decides that he owes it to Tex to try retrieve her. He is currently trapped inside the Epsilon Capture Unit, reliving his memories of Blood Gulch and waiting for Tex's return. After reuniting with Tex and living with the memory simulations of both the Blue and Red teams for a while, he decides to forget her to find inner peace. Caboose brings him out of the memory unit directly after he lets Tex go. It is then revealed that Carolina (who is revealed to not be dead as formally believed) was the one who helped them rescue Epsilon - Church and needs his help to kill the director. The main reason that Epsilon was broken and went 'insane' was the fact that it is the memory portion of the Alpha AI. During the process of acquiring more AI from the Alpha, the heavy stress from excessive simulation and torture, forced it to sever the memory portion of itself for self-preservation. Since Epsilon is the memory of Alpha, Epsilon began to replay the memories of the torture in Washington's mind and 'feeling' the pain of its former life, committed suicide. As such, Washington is fully aware of what happened to the Alpha AI and refuses to put another AI in his head as he wasn't sure that he could keep it a secret from a program. Ironically, this refusal for AIs is why he was recruited to be a Recovery agent. Washington says the reason Epsilon went insane was "it was meant to." Epsilon appears to suffer something of a split personality, as he refers to himself as "we" due to him remembering all of the other AIs until he takes a physical form again in the robot unit Caboose created.

Theta

  • Voice Actor: Unknown (Season 10)[23], Burnie Burns (Reconstruction)
  • A.I. Fragment: Trust
  • Color: Blue and Red
  • Appearances: Reconstruction, Season 10
  • Status: Deleted

Theta was agent North Dakota's artificial intelligence unit during the A.I. experimental program. Towards the program's end, Theta was assigned to North while North's twin-sister South was given no AI, to see how the three would react. Later on, when The Meta began to hunt down and kill the Freelancers, taking their equipment and A.I.s, Theta, North, and South were attacked by the rogue Freelancer. In order to survive, South allowed North to be killed (off-camera) and let The Meta take Theta so that she could escape.

Theta remained with The Meta while he hunted down and took several more A.I. units. In Reconstruction Chapter 8, Theta is among the A.I.s that welcome Delta into the Meta's stolen A.I. collection, and in Chapter 19 is later seemingly destroyed along with the rest of The Meta's A.I.s in the EMP explosion created by Agent Washington.

In Revelation, however, it is revealed that all of the A.I. survive in Epsilon's locked memories, using the memory of Delta to communicate for brief periods with the other Blues and Reds, mainly Caboose.

Theta appears in Season 10. He displays childlike shyness around others, hiding behind North's leg when he introduced him to the other Freelancers. He demonstrated exceptional skills in managing North's Shield enhancement.

Sigma

  • Voice Actor: Elijah Wood (Season 10), Burnie Burns (Reconstruction)
  • A.I. Fragment: Creativity
  • Color: Orange
  • Appearances: Reconstruction, Season 10
  • Status: Deleted

Sigma was originally Agent Carolina's AI unit, but she gave it to Maine after his vocal cords were shot so he could communicate. In Season 10, he displays great interest in the idea of AI rampancy, specifically the theoretical fourth stage, Metastability, in which an AI can be considered fully human. Sigma believed that if it brought together all of the AI fragments that he would become the Alpha. He even manages to trick Carolina into getting two AIs. It was Sigma that convinced Agent Maine to kill his fellow Freelancers and steal their AI and equipment, becoming The Meta. He never achieves his goal, however as Sigma, along with all the AIs captured by The Meta, was destroyed in an EMP.

Eta

  • A.I. Fragment: Unknown
  • Color: Yellow or Light Blue
  • Appearances: Season 10
  • Status: Deleted

Eta was one of the two artificial intelligence implanted in Agent Carolina. Originally intended for Washington or South, Carolina instead requested to receive Eta, along with Iota, so she could increase her abilities and become a better agent than Tex. Following the Freelancer Break-in led by Tex, the Mother of Invention crashes on Sidewinder, where Eta along with Iota is caputed by the Meta. Eta is eventually wiped out with the seven other AI collected by the Meta during the EMP blast set off by Washingston in Reconstruction.

Iota

Iota was one of the two artificial intelligence implanted in Agent Carolina. Originally intended for Washington or South, Carolina instead requested to receive Iota, along with Eta, so she could increase her abilities and become a better agent than Tex. Following the Freelancer Break-in led by Tex, the Mother of Invention crashes on Sidewinder, where Iota along with Eta is caputed by the Meta. Iota is eventually wiped out with the seven other AI collected by the Meta during the EMP blast set off by Washingston in Reconstruction.

The Insurrection

The Insurrection is a military force that have defected from the UNSC, shown in the prequel section of Season 9 and Season 10 as the main antagonists opposing the Freelancers. They are first seen in episode two of Season 9. They show little aptitude in combat, and are repeatedly pummeled by the freelancers. They take the attitude of nonchalance towards their duties, commonly used for comic relief during a stressful scene. However, some Insurrectionist are more adept at combat and serve as powerful foes to the freelancers. These Insurrectionists appear and prove to be very competent at combat.

Insurrectionist Demo Man

  • Full Name: Unknown
  • Voice Actor: Brandon Farmahini
  • Armor Color: Black, Red Trim
  • Appearances: Project Freelancer
  • Status: Alive

The Insurrectionist Demo Man is a high-ranking member of the Insurrection. He first appears in Season 9, Chapter 2, appearing to be the leader at Bjordinal Cryogenics Research Facility. When North and South Dakota infiltrate the base to steal a data file, the Demo Man, along with dozens of other Insurrectionist soldiers, manage to surround the two freelancers at a heli-pad. He controls a turret and demands the two return the file, however Carolina appears and knocks him off the turret and the three Freelancers proceed to fight the Insurrectionists. While they are fighting, the Demo Man manages to get back on the turret and heavily injure North, before Carolina causes him, along with other soldiers, to plunge into the water below. However, the Demo Man manages to fall onto a small ledge and escape the facility before it explodes.

He reappears in a building the Freelancers are infiltrating. When York accidentally triggers an alarm, the Demo Man sends a squad to kill the Freelancers. In the following chapter, he, along with dozens of Insurrectionists and Hornets, surround Carolina, Tex, York and Washington on top of the building. He demands York to disarm Tex's bomb, but York reveals it isn't a bomb but a transmitter. York hands the Demo Man the transmitter, who looks up just as a MAC round crushes the building.

He later reappears in Season 10, Chapter 7, revealing he survived the events of the previous season. He watches C.T. arrive at the Insurrection base. In a battle between the Insurrection and the Freelancers, he drives a Warthog, while the Female Soldier uses the turret. When Carolina tackles the Female Soldier off and prepares to shoot her, he blocks the bullets with the Warthog and lifts his arm out of the Warthog to shoot his shotgun, revealing he now needs a robotic arm after the previous seasons events. When Maine joins the fight, the Demo Man rams Maine with his Warthog only for Maine to destroy it. He, once again, saves the Female from Carolina's plasma gun and manages to do impressive feats with his new arm, such as catching a grenade from Maine's Brute Shot and punching down Maine and Carolina. Eventually, Maine throws the blade of the Brute Shot to slice his arm off, then shoots at his feet to knock him into the water.

In the next chapter, Carolina and Washington are about to leave the vault when the door is opened. The two quickly dispatch several Insurrectionist, when the Flame Soldier appears. When the two freelancers are confused by his bold entrance, he begins firing a flame-thrower, causing the two to take cover. Carolina and Wash open fire but discover he is a capable opponent. After a tough fight, Carolina, climbs up a wall and jumps onto a Banshee suspended from the ceiling. After the ropes holding the Banshee are weakened by his flame-thrower, Carolina tosses a grenade into the Banshee and kicks off it. The grenade explodes sending the Banshee flying into the Soldier.

However, he manages to regain himself with the jet pack, only for Maine to punch him in the head sending him flying down the highway. He is last seen riding on a Warthog chasing Tex.

He later appears in Season 10, Chapter 7, sniping a seagull that had landed on the hidden Wyoming's helmet. In the following chapter the Freelancers attack the Insurrectionist base.

The Insurrectionist Sniper appears beside them and fires at Carolina, almost killing her. Carolina throws a grenade which the Sniper quickly shoots and almost shoots her in the head again. Carolina asks North for help and he throw his armor enhancement, a domed-bubble shield, at the direction of the snipers. The enhancement lands beside the Sniper and activates. The Sniper tells his soldiers to hold their fire and wait for the enhancement to deactivate. However, one of the soldiers fires his SMG at the shield before the Sniper can warn him and the bullet bounces off the shield and kills the soldier.

  • Appearances: Project Freelancer
  • Status: Alive

The Insurrectionist Female Soldier is a high ranking Insurrectionist, preferring two duel weld magnums and knives as her weapons. She first appears walking down a highway with other high ranking Insurrectionists. She makes a larger appearance in the episode 'Spiral', where she is part of an Insurrectionist response team, sent out to stop Carolina, Maine and York. Her, along with the Insurrectionist Sniper and Sleeveless Soldier attack the freelancers Warthog, by jumping off the Hornet they are riding on and using jet packs to fly around them. Her and the Sleeveless Soldier personally attack the Warthog by landing on it and attempting to steal the briefcase from an injured Maine while Carolina fights them off. When Carolina and the Sleeveless Soldier began fighting on a truck, the Female joins in firing her pistols at Carolina as she takes cover behind barrels.

Eventually, Maine joins the fight and lunges at the Female, who manges to kick him back and Carolina and him switch opponents. The Female begins firing at Carolina, who dodges the bullets. York throws Maine's Brute Shot to Carolina and she uses the blade on it to stab the Female in the chest. Crying out in pain, she tosses one of her pistols to her Sleeveless companion who uses it to critically injure Maine. Carolina then proceeds to angerly fight both Insurrectionists. The wounded Female attempts to fly away but Carolina kicks her down. When the truck loses control and the four soldiers fly off it, she flys off the highway.

In Season Ten, it is revealed she survived. She asks why the Insurrectionists should trust C.T., who had recently defected. She removes her helmet and is revealed to be a blond, Caucasian woman. Later she works with the Sleeveless Soldier and the Red Demo Man to fight the freelancers using teamwork. She controls a turret on the Warthog the Red Demo Man is driving until Carolina kicks her off of it. When the Red Demo Man chases Carolina away, her and the Sleeveless Soldier follow but a drop pod containing Maine lands between them. Carolina attempts to shoot her again but the Demo Man saves her by fighting off Carolina. Later, her and the Demo Man fight Carolina and Maine on a platform. Eventually, she tumbles on the ground and manages to grab on to the platform, above the water. Maine, holding the Demo Man's disembodied, robotic arm, offers the Female a hand.

Insurrectionist Leader

  • Full Name: Unknown
  • Voice Actor: Michael Joplin
  • Armor Color: Black, Red Trim
  • Appearances: The Recollection, Project Freelancer
  • Status: Deceased

The Insurrectionist Leader is a high-ranking member of the Insurrection, recognized by the pill symbol on his chest. He seems to have a close relationship with C.T. as he is the only person she lets call her Connie. He first appears walking down a highway with other high ranking Insurrectionists, carrying a briefcase. Later, he appears next to the Demo Man when the latter gives a briefcase to an Insurrectionist Scientist. In the episode 'Whole Lot of Shaking' he is seen talking to C.T. over a video chat, which is interrupted by Washington, causing C.T. to end her call.

In Season 10, he appears in the space ship graveyard along two other Insurrectionist Soldiers. While Carolina, York, Wash, North, South and C.T. are on a mission looking for him, C.T. sneaks away to his location. When the two meet, C.T. hands him an important data file and the four soldiers head to the leaders location. Later when the freelancers are searching Bone Valley, the Leader has took command of an Insurrectionist destroyer ship, 'The Staff of Charon' where he attacks the Freelancer frigate. The two ships fight but the Insurrection Leader decides to go into Slipspace, leaving behind a nuclear device. However, the freelancers and the frigate manage to escape the explosion.

Later, he appears with C.T. entering the Insurrectionist base via Falcon, while Wyoming spys on the base. While the Leader's companions aren't pleased to see C.T., not trusting her. Wyoming reports C.T.'s location and the Carolina, North, South, York, Wash and Wyoming attack the base. C.T. is surprised that her former friends found her so fast while the two overlook the battle through cameras. He then sounds an alarm and tells the Insurrectionists to battle the Freelancers. Him and C.T. attempt to head to a bunker, when he notices the Unknown Blue Soldier up on a ledge. He quickly throws a hatchet at him, knocking him off the ledge. Suddenly, Wyoming snipes at him, shooting him in the foot, causing him and C.T. to retreat. While C.T. proposes that they leave to escape the freelancers, he insists to not leaving without his teammates. As the two argue, Tex and Carolina break into the bunker. While C.T. tries to explain that the Director is using the freelancers, Tex is angered and attacks C.T. and a fight ensures. Eventually, Tex mortally wounds C.T. with the Leader's tomahawks, but he manages to escape with C.T. into an escape pod. C.T. hands him a file, containing the location of an artifact, before dying in his arms. Stricken with grief, he escapes the base and puts on C.T.'s helmet, revealing that he took on C.T.'s identity.

The soldier now known as C.T. appears in the desert excavation site where he claims to be working with a team of humans and aliens to uncover a structure. Tucker revealed that he had deceived Grif, Sarge and Caboose and had in fact killed the actual dig crews, becoming the main antagonist of Recreation. C.T. first appeared as the driver of a UNSC Elephant, assisting Sarge, Grif, and Caboose through an active minefield protecting the location of the temple. He appeared in the following chapter physically and introduced one of his alien "co-workers", Smith. He allows the trio to scavenge spare parts to fix their jeep so they can depart swiftly, but secretly makes plans to "deal with" them to Smith. When the temple door opens, he leads the dig team to try to kill Tucker, but is forced to call a retreat. After breaching the temple, C.T. manages to capture Epsilon Church, angering the Aliens and causing them to revolt. C.T. flees the temple with Epsilon Church while the Reds, Blues, and the Aliens give chase. Eventually the Reds and Blues catch up, destroy C.T.'s jeep, and he is finally killed by Epsilon-Church after refusing to reveal his identity.

Insurrection Turret Soldiers

  • Full Name: Unknown
  • Voice Actor: Michael Jones and Lindsay Tuggey
  • Armor Color: Black, Maroon Trim, Yellow Visor
  • Appearances: Season 10
  • Status: Deceased

The Insurrectionist Turret Soldiers are a pair of turret-wielding soldiers who appears similar to the Insurrectionist Flame Soldier. One has a happy face painted on their visor and turret while the other has a sad face. They appear to have paint canisters on their back. One of them first appear in episode 7, spray painting a turret yellow, while Wyoming spys on the Insurrection base. They have a much larger appearance in episode 9 when they guard CT and the Insurrection Leader, both on their way to a bunker to hide from the freelancers above ground. From the pillars above, Wyoming and the Unknown Blue Soldier watch above. However the Leader notices the Blue Soldier and throws a tomahawk at him, causing him to fall off the pillar. The Leader then orders the two turret soldiers to suppress the area in case of any other freelancers. When the two stop shooting, Wyoming appears down below and snipes the Insurrectionists. The Turret Soldier's armor appear to be bullet-proof so Wyoming takes cover when the two began firing again, as the Leader and CT continue to the bunker.

Carolina, York and Wash soon join Wyoming and attempt to figure out how to bypass the soldiers when Tex, cloaked runs past the soldiers. In anger, Carolina follows Tex using her Speed Unit, leaving York, Wash and Wyoming to fend for themselves. However, the Blue Soldier picks himself up and uses a grenade launcher to manipulate a crane holding a crate and makes it knock the two off the platform they were on and the crane snaps, dropping the crate. The crate then falls on the two killing them and their paint canisters explode, making a large yellow stain.

Recurring unaffiliated characters

Doc

  • Full Name: Frank DuFresne[24]
  • Voice Actor: Matt Hullum
  • Armor Color: Purple
  • Appearances: The Blood Gulch Chronicles, The Recollection, Project Freelancer
  • Status: Alive

Medical Officer Doc is a medic who is from the delta quardent system sent to Blood Gulch to treat both armies, despite the lack of medical skill that he often displays. As he is not a qualified doctor, he doesn't take to his new nickname of Doc, forced upon him by Church because of his refusal/inability to pronounce his surname. He is also a pacifist of the most extreme kind, and tries to avoid doing or even saying anything that would seem remotely aggressive or competitive. His extreme pacifism in the middle of a war quickly earns him the ire of both teams, and he is eventually exiled to a cavern equidistant from both bases. As revealed in the bonus material on the season 3 DVD, this pacifism had also caused him to be released from the Red Army before the events of The Blood Gulch Chronicles, thereby necessitating the draft that has forced Grif into military service. The profile also states he is the only person in history to enlist in an army as a 'conscientious objector'.[1] He has also stated that he is a vegetarian It is also found out that he went to medical school at Jamaica State.

When Tex and Church force O'Malley out of Caboose, O'Malley finds a new host in Doc. Split-personality Gollum/Sméagol conversations and arguments between O'Malley and Doc frequently occur. However, the difference between Doc and O'Malley is even greater than it is for the former pair. Doc apologizes on occasion for O'Malley's trash talk and conduct; O'Malley, on the other hand, frequently tells him to shut up. As the series progresses, both personalities apparently grow more accustomed to each other.

Although Doc has failed medical school and his lack of medical knowledge is apparent — he rubs Caboose's neck with aloe vera to treat a bullet wound in the foot, agrees with Grif's using CPR to treat the bullet wound to Sarge's head, and has no idea what his medical tool does except glow green when something is wrong — Church seems to depend on him to treat injury and illness. In episode 38, Church wants to pursue Doc — who, under O'Malley's possession, had fled to Sidewinder — to have him help Tucker, who had been hit by a rocket. Later, when Tucker becomes ill in episode 73, Church calls Doc for help. In episode 77, O'Malley leaves Doc to possess another person after the Reds, unaware of his presence, contact their Command via radio. Free of O'Malley, Doc continues to aid the pregnant Tucker and subsequently the newborn alien. In addition, Church uses Doc as someone expendable to determine the cause of Sheila's erratic behavior, on the grounds that he will either fix Sheila, break her so that Church himself can freely examine her, or get blown up trying; all of which are beneficial to Church. He is later sent into the caves with Sister and Junior to ambush the Reds, and is confronted by Captain Flowers, O'Malley and an alien, who take him, Junior, and Sister hostage and bring them down to the underground computer terminal. When Captain Flowers collapses, he and Sister return above ground, where Doc is briefly reinfected after O'Malley leaves Grif, only to just as quickly pass to Church.

At the end of the Blood Gulch Chronicles, Doc is only seen briefly wandering around with the Blue Team. Some time later, when Washington comes to Blood Gulch, he finds most of the characters, including Doc, have departed the location. Doc's whereabouts are not disclosed. Doc is next seen briefly in Reconstruction after Simmons and Washington attempted to call a medic to assist a comatose Caboose. Washington's team departed the area before Doc arrived, much to his dismay. Doc is seen again in Revelation, when Simmons calls on a medic, Command sends the nearest one, Doc, who is soon attacked by Washington and made his prisoner. In the finale of Revelation, Doc manages to escape with the Red and Blue teams. In Season 10 it is revealed that he eventually returns to Valhalla, where he finds a wounded Donut and saves his life. He and Donut are now both living together in a cottage on the outskirts of Valhalla.

The original plan for Doc's character, as noted by the Rooster Teeth crew, was simply to provide a vessel for O'Malley to jump into, and also to display his pacifism. Matt Hullum notes going through several different accents for the character, such as Cockney, French and Australian, before settling on his own voice to use, as he was unsure in which direction to take the character.[2]

Andy

  • Full Name: Andrew D. Kaboom[10]
  • Voice Actor: Nathan Zellner
  • Color: Black
  • Appearances: The Blood Gulch Chronicles (Seasons 3, 4, 5), Reconstruction (voice only), Season 9
  • Status: Detonated

Built by Tex, Andy is the short-tempered, rude, and vulgar bomb. Andy often expresses a desire detonate himself to solve a problem, much to the worry the teams, who attempt to calm him down. Andy is apparently self-conscious about his weight. In episode 75, after O'Malley repeatedly calls him "bowling ball", Andy asks Caboose if this is true, claiming that he has been working out. When Sarge steals Andy, he remarks that Andy is much lighter than the last time he tried to pick him up, and Andy is relieved that someone has noticed. Since Andy was built from parts of an old robot, he is able to speak. He also understands the Alien's language, and rest of the group to act as a translator. In Episode 76, the Reds steal Andy to translate a recording for them, which is stored in Lopez, but is in Spanish.

Later, he was taken by O'Malley, then possessing Captain Flowers, but was left in the caves with Lopez after Flowers learned enough Alien language to get by. The Red team returns to pick him up in Episode 100 and plant him in the ship as a contingency plan. They order him to detonate if O'Malley tries to escape in the ship. O'Malley does so, so Andy detonates, seemingly killing everyone on board. Andy's fate is expanded upon somewhat in the Chapter 5 of Reconstruction. Andy did explode, but while the blast did not destroy him, it caused major damage to the ship. Andy's fate after the crash landing is unknown.

He appears briefly in Season 9, in the Epsilon unit, where he is placed by Tex in the middle of the Reds. He then counts down, but to his dismay, does not explode.

In the Season 4 DVD commentary, the series creators stated that they originally wanted to explain Andy's rudeness by making him bitter about being rejected by Sheila, but it was never incorporated into the series.

Alien

File:RvB Alien.JPG
The Alien.

Appearing for the first time at the end of season 3, the Alien scares Church's spirit out of his host body after having already wiped out Lopez's robot army and defeated O'Malley single-handedly. This prompts the Blues to attempt to hunt him down, but they suffer a series of humiliating defeats. Even Tex is cut down seconds after attempting to attack the Alien, and, like Church, is forced to flee her host body. Eventually, however, Caboose manages to befriend the Alien, who had found him unpalatable after biting him once. Conversely, the Alien has a strong odor to the Blues, who describe the smell with a series of unpleasant analogies.

The Alien has a habit of staying crouched, and its language appears to consist entirely of blarg and honk. It seems to understand English to some degree, as Andy is only heard to speak in its language once and it responds to other characters when they speak English, but it is unable to communicate in English. When asked for a name, the Alien replies, "Honk Honk," though it is never established whether that is indeed his name. Caboose has called the Alien "Crunch-bite" and "Fluffy," and Tex speculates at one point that the Alien might be named Honk-Honk. Andy initially suggests Crouchasaurus, a name that, according to the season 3 DVD commentary, had been initially suggested by a fan unfamiliar with Halo. However, the character is listed as "Alien" on the credits of the season 4 DVD. Gary later claims that the Alien is a member of the species that built him (though this later proves to be a lie).

The Alien reveals in episodes 63 and 64 that he was on a quest to retrieve the sword that Tucker had discovered when he fell into the hole under the windmill so that he could save his race from extinction. When the Alien first spots Tucker with the sword, he begins to attack and beat Tucker to a pulp relentlessly, apparently upset that Tucker had discovered the sword first; the sword only works for its original finder. The Alien consequently forces Tucker to join him on his quest, threatening to kill everyone otherwise. When the sacred quest team reaches the temple in the Great Freezing Plains, the Alien has Tucker use the sword to unlock the gates to an alien ship, whose existence had been previously undisclosed, even to Andy. The Alien takes off in the ship, but he is almost immediately killed by Wyoming, thus leaving the Alien's true intentions unclear.

In episode 69, Tucker complains that the Alien is always standing over him when he awakes. This is not discussed at length in that episode, as Tex assumes that the Alien is simply obsessing over the sword. However, Andy accidentally reveals at the end of season 4 that the Alien's race reproduces by implanting parasitic embryos in other beings. Soon after, Tucker gives birth to the "baby" or Junior who is heard off-camera speaking in higher-pitched honks and blargs.

In 99 Tucker explains that the Alien's prophecy concerning the sword providing salvation for the Aliens did not fail with his death; instead, Junior, the son of Tucker and the Alien, is the intended savior of the Alien race.

In Revelation, it was revealed that the Alien's claims of a "prophecy" was all a ruse. The entire plot of the Blood Gulch Chronicles was a simulation battle test for Freelancers, in this case, specifically for Tex.

Red Zealot

  • Full Name: Unknown
  • Voice actor: Burnie Burns with altered pitch
  • Armor Color: Red
  • Appearances: Episodes 39, 40, 43, 4648, 53.3 (season 3 DVD deleted scene)
  • Status: Deceased

The Red Zealot is one of the eternally respawning Red Team Grunts from Battle Creek, a hyperactive, frantic, melodramatic fellow with a high-pitched voice who has seemingly devoted his life to worshipping "The Flag". Although all of the Battle Creek soldiers seem to share this faith, the Red Zealot has a far more staunchly religious mindset than his comrades do, and his fast-paced speech consists almost entirely of Biblical-type quotes and religious dogma, often speaking about crusades and promised lands during battles. He later teams up with O'Malley after being separated from the other Grunts, having been convinced the rogue AI is in fact the guardian of the Holy Temple. O'Malley, Doc, and Lopez find him annoying, but tolerate him because he performs menial tasks without complaint and even with a degree of enjoyment. Ultimately, Tucker kills him when the Red and Blue alliance launches its attack on O'Malley's fortress. A deleted scene in the season 3 DVD shows the Red Zealot resurrecting and vowing revenge, but as he is not seen again after this, it is not confirmed if this scene is canon.

Grunts

  • Full Names: Unknown
  • Voice actors: Various with altered pitches
  • Armor Colors: Red, Blue
  • Appearances: Episodes 39, 40, 43, 6971
  • Status: Alive (Some Deceased)

The Grunts[14] are a group of eternally respawning Reds and Blues originally from Battle Creek. Except for The Red Zealot, they have no known official individual names. Initially engaged in Halo's version of Capture the Flag, the group parodies the multiplayer games available in Halo and the stereotypical yet accurate behaviors of Halo gamers, using terms like "rocket whore," "camper", and "noob."

Having been teleported to Battle Creek at the end of season 2, Sarge and Caboose first encounter the Grunts near the beginning of season 3 and soon have to avoid being caught in the group's fire; eventually, they manage to escape with Simmons' help. Simmons later teleports the group to Sidewinder and convinces them to defeat O'Malley by claiming that the latter has their flag, but are thus caught in the time-shattering explosion. In the future, both teams are seen working together to guard the temple in the Great Freezing Plains. Despite the team-up, they still exchange trash talk with each other over armor color. It is unknown why they were guarding the Freezing Plains, or why they decided to team up together at all.

Other Alien

  • Armor Color: Green and Blue
  • Appearances: Episode 96, 99, 100
  • Status: Unknown

When Captain Butch Flowers returned and revealed himself to be O'Malley's new host, he introduced a new alien, referred to as the Other Alien on his DVD profile, as his partner. The Other Alien carries a weapon similar to the first Alien's. In episode 97 it was revealed that the Other Alien is seeking the original Alien for unknown reasons, and it revived Captain Flowers to assist him. The pair of them then begin searching for Junior as well. Flowers is working with O'Malley, Vic Jr. and Wyoming to exploit the Alien's race, however Flowers' dialogue with Vic Jr. reveals that the Other Alien is unaware of this fact. The Other Alien follows O'Malley and Junior onto the ship in episode 100, but its fate is unknown.

Smith

  • Voice Actor: Jack Pattillo
  • Armor Color: Purple
  • Appearances: Recreation, Revelation
  • Status: Deceased

Smith is one of the Aliens working with the soldier known as C.T, and the secondary antagonist of Recreation due to being the de facto leader of the aliens and C.T.'s unofficial second-in-command. He appears to be driving a human warthog, and is disturbed by the appearance of Sarge, Grif and Caboose. He is injured in Chapter 12 of Recreation by a plasma grenade thrown by Tucker. He reappears in Chapter 18 where he beats down another Jones in retaliation for shooting Epsilon Church. When CT flees with Epsilon Church, Smith commandeers an Alien vehicle and gives chase, but is taken out when CT destroys his vehicle. Though, he again appeared to survive, and is seen standing in front of the temple at the end of the scene. Later in Revelation, he is seen, along with the other aliens, worshipping Epsilon Church. He is later killed along with the rest of the aliens by Washington and the Meta.

Lopez's Robot Army

  • Armor Colors: Brown
  • Appearances: Episodes 5557
  • Status: Destroyed

Lopez's robot army is a group built by Lopez's head and programmed to do O'Malley's bidding. Having the same armor color as Lopez, they first appear in episode 55 as O'Malley prepares to attack his now-captured fortress and reclaim an unnamed "device." However, as Lopez had taken O'Malley's demand for a "day of victory" literally, their maximum speeds are programmed to achieve victory "in exactly 24 hours," causing extremely slow advancement on the fortress. Once they finally reach the fortress they manage to cause a large degree of chaos, but ultimately, the army is destroyed by an unseen character, later revealed to be the Alien.

Jimmy

  • Full Name: James[10] (last name unknown)
  • Voice Actor: John Ferrell
  • Armor Color: Blue
  • Appearances: Episode 10, Out of Mind Part Two
  • Status: Deceased

Private Jimmy appears briefly in episode 10 from Texas and a friend of Church. In a parody of old war movies, Jimmy reminisces about how he will marry his girlfriend when he gets back from the war, only to be killed moments later by the enemy. Jimmy was killed when Tex ripped his skull clean out of his head and beat him to death with it. Jimmy's last words were "This doesn't seem physically possible!"[26] There is occasionally an allusion to this in later seasons. A short character profile for Private Jimmy — or parts of him — can be found as an Easter egg on the season 4 DVD. In Part Two of the miniseries Out of Mind, Jimmy makes an appearance in flashback at the training facility Church, Tex and Wyoming were a part of. In the season 4 DVD easter egg it is revealed that the skull that turns up randomly throughout the season is that of Jimmy. In Red vs. Blue Revelation, Episode 4, the skull showed up again, along with graffiti reading "Pvt Jimmy wuz here" on the side of the hole in Valhalla leading into the next area.

Yellow Church

  • Voice Actor: Burnie Burns
  • Armor Color: Yellow
  • Appearances: Episode 52, Episode 100
  • Status: Unknown

Appearing first in Episode 52 as one of the time traveling Churches, Yellow Church appeared with the group of other Churches in Sidewinder when they discussed their failed plans to stop the bomb. He never states his plan out loud, instead replying that "it didn't work" and that "it seemed like such a good idea at the time."

However, in Episode 100, he reappears with an apparently conflicting back story. As Caboose's mental image of Sister, he is mistakenly imagined to be Church's twin brother who came on a spaceship from the moon. He says he lives with Caboose in the front of the ship, while everyone from the end of the ship lives on the opposite end of the island, this line being a reference to the television show Lost. Despite being Caboose's own thought, Yellow Church/Mental Sister admits that this is an inherently flawed idea, but doesn't care. The mental image is killed when the real Church, chasing Tex and O'Malley into and out of Caboose's mind, throws a grenade at his feet. Yellow Church had been close by, and as being killed ejects people from Caboose's mind and into the real world, the character appeared in the real Blood Gulch. He appears next to a recently deceased Wyoming, however, whose armor malfunctions and uses its special ability to rewind segments of time and teleport. The corpse and Yellow Church are then transported to Sidewinder, where the Churches are gathering. After noticing where he is, he simply states "Well, fuck!"

The Chairman

  • Full Name: Malcolm Hargrove
  • Voice Actor: Jack Lee
  • Appearance: Caucasian male with Grey Hair
  • Appearances: Reconstruction (voice only), Recreation, Season 10 (voice only)
  • Status: Alive

The Chairman is the head of an "oversight subcommittee" that apparently has some sort of authority in the military. He and the Director of Project Freelancer are heard in the introductions of most Reconstruction episodes, with the Chairman suspecting him of criminal acts with his experiments. He eventually presses charges against the Director and sends officers to place him under arrest in Reconstruction's epilogue. In Chapter 9 of Recreation, the Chairman is revealed to be a commander and is stationed at the UNSC Maximum Security Detention Facility. In Chapter 13, he strikes a deal with Washington that he will free him and clear all the charges provided Washington returns Epsilon to him.

Allison

  • Full Name: Allison
  • Voice Actor: Unknown
  • Appearance: Caucasian female with blonde hair
  • Appearances: Season 10
  • Status: Deceased

Allison was the Director's loved one that had died in a war, first mentioned in Reconstruction and made a physical appearance in season 10. The death of Allison haunted the Director and when the Alpha A.I. was created and fragmented, one of the fragments was a 'shadow' of her. This 'shadow' was given the codename Tex and put in a robotic body, believing herself to be Allison. The Director remembered Allison for her failure to survive and therefore, Tex was fragmented with the ability to fail at the worst times.

In season 10, Tex and Carolina were about to fight in the training room, when the Director notices. After noticing Tex was involved in the fight, the Director, worried about Tex, called out "No! Allison!". This caused all the A.I.s in the general area to begin muttering 'Allison' due to them also having memories of Allison from the Alpha. Later in the season, agent Washington was implanted with Epsilon. As Epsilon's memories were also from the Alpha, when Wash was given Epsilon, he immediately began having flash memories of a conversation the Director has with Allison before she went off to war.
