Savior Team

"Our war isn't over till we stop breathing." - Savior Team

Savior Team is a team of SPARTANS that were active in many conflicts. They were trained as a black operation unit but due to a lack of training; the new spartan recruits were sent to the front lines to fight the Covenant and train new recruits. After the Battle in the Ancillia System however, they assigned Nikolai as their new team leader and were recommissioned as a black op unit.

Members
Nikolai Pereshenko (S-lV): Nikolai is the team leader. He made it clear from day one that he knew nothing about black ops. He also made it clear that there was something this team could learn from Nikolai in the way of surviving on your own and guerrilla warfare tactics. He was instantly disliked by most of the team who saw guerrilla tactics as cowardly, out-dated and obsolete. However, now in the THDF universe even Alysha has been forced to admit that the guerrilla training Nikolai gave them is priceless in their current struggle against the Chat Empire.

He recently switched his armor from is old GEN 2 to Mark IV Mandalorian Combat Armor due to the wear and tear of his old suit. He prefers an HK316.

Blake Stevens (SG-III) Blake is the team's infiltration expert; also know as a lone wolf. If you need a fly on the wall in a heavy guarded compound, he is your guy. He still prefers a suppressed SMG and SPI armor despite its drawbacks.

Lillian Lawler (SG-III) Every spartan from gamma has anger issues but Lillian takes it too far sometimes. She also makes historically bad tactical decisions in the heat of combat. She once beheaded an elite that tried to take her hostage. Then she proceeded in taking on six elites at one time up close, which almost got her killed had the rest of the team not showed up. Alysha and Nikolai always try to be at her side to make sure nothing happens to her. Close quarters combat is her speciality. She prefers a HK-316 as a primary weapon and a Type-1337 Energy Weapon/Sword as a secondary. She uses Mandalorian Mark lV Combat Armor and evade. She has kept a personal shotgun that she keeps in a box in the Back with a Vengence, but has reserved it for Jul' Mdama. Her hatred towards him makes her the only member that wishes the rift incident had not happened.

Kyle Wigan (S-IV) sniper. He often uses a marine as his spotter to increase the effectiveness of the team. He prefers a jet-pack, a White Sun Incendiary Battle Rifle, and Mandalorian Mark lV Combat Armor.

Alysha Morris (S-IV) She is the teams explosive expert. Alysha was the former team leader before Nikoli took over after the Battle on the Ancillia System. Alysha still has a rocky relationship with Nikolai since she was demoted. She prefers to be judged on how big an explosion is and not on how long it took. She uses armor lock and Mandalorian Mark lV Combat Armor.

Ideology and Na Zego incident
When the Back with a Vengeance was teleported into the THDF universe they were low on supplies due to the long campaign they had been waging in the Ancillian system. The planet of Na Zego and its people took them in and gave them food and a warm bed. Savior Team also used the opportunity to upgrade much of their equipment. But soon the Chat Empire showed up and demanded that the members of the Back with a Vengeance hand over their tech, or be considered enemies of the state. As with other instances with the slip-space rifts, the Chat wanted to make sure they were not a threat. They also saw this as a chance to pick up and discover new technology. The Captain, Richard Lee, saw this as unacceptable and planned to attack the Chat Empire.

However, after Savior received intel from the locals on the size and scope of the Chat Empire, it was agreed upon by Richard Lee and the locals that Richard would prolong the negotiations until a solar flare. Then precisely before the solar flare (which would produce an EMP) hit the planet, the Back with a Vengeance would escape using its slips-pace drive. When the Captain got out of slip-space and radioed Na Zego he found static. Thinking it was the EMP, the Captain continued on his way to another system, hopefully not controlled by the Chat.

However, when the Back with a Vengeance reached the next planet, they found it deserted, with only one small ship being found. After meeting the survivors on the civilian ship, Savior Team found out the truth. The Chat had sacked planets that centered around Na Zego in retaliation for the civilian cooperation with the Back with a Vengeance. Their hope was that either the ship would turn up and surrender, or they could find it's location and hunt it down. That was also when Savior Team first heard about The Resistance and the atrocities the Chat Empire had committed. It was not long before the Back with a Vengeance was apart of the resistance with every member fully committed to stopping the Chat and their allies.
