The History of Emile's skull and Noble Team's TOP SECRET Counter-Insurrection Operations

leviathan.bungie.org/
Emile's skull, 'Death's Head', as he calls it, is easily one of the most iconic aspects of Reach, so, today I figured we'd take a look at the origin of this terrifying piece of custom MJOLNIR. Today, we're looking at the history of Emile's skull and Noble Team's TOP SECRET Counter-Insurrection Operations on Reach, prior to Reach itself!

Happy new decade friendos! If all goes to plan 2020 could be one of Halo's most iconic years yet, so to brace you for it, I thought we'd take a look at the history of Emile's iconic hand-engraved skull, and the operations he and Noble underwent that earned him 'Death's Head', as he calls it, enjoy!

Another reason for recreating the visor, imagine a group of elites or brutes somehow put one of these Spartans down, and not longer after another one with the exact same armor comes after them like a Revenant thirsting for their souls. It would reinforce the idea of Spartans being these immortal killing machines even more, and would lay credence to the term "Demon". The Grim Reaper exists, and he's clad in Mjolnir armor.

As someone who's recently lost their parents to someone's misdeeds, I can absolutely relate to that bloodlust and the void in their heart. It's something you have to learn to live with lest you either end up stress eating yourself into a grave or ruin your life in a brash fit of rage. I'm honestly kinda jealous of Emile's ability to work out his emotions with righteous bloodshed, however unhealthy it may be, it's like being able to work out depression with a crack addiction without the repercussions or self harm coming from it

[@Treen1205]

I love Emile because the fanbase actually found his face (he's African American, for those who don't know) and you can tell he's secretly broken, as you can see by the lines "im lonely already" (when radio goes silent on winter contingency) and on that same level, when Sara Sorvad, the dead scientists daughter near the end of the level is reccomended for a psych eval, he says "she's not the only one".

Honestly. And as fucked up as this may sound. My favorite part about Emile was his death. Jorge Went out thinking he had saved Reach. Kat died trying desperately to get to saftey. Carter went out making a path for Six and Emile. And Emile? He died a ravenous wolf, knowing he wouldn't survive reach but fighting to his last moments anyway. Just like Six. Out of all the Spartans on Noble team. Emile and Six had the biggest fight in them, no fear of death and the greatest wills. Moreso than the other 4 combined. I have great respect for Emile as a character, and while Jorge is my Favorite out of Noble team, Emile is who I idolize the most.

[@jamesolsen2137]

@@skel_raven3273 each of noble teams death is a metaphor for their character and personality. Jorge, the big strong guy, is taken down by a big and strong bomb that he sacrificed himself with. Kat, the brains of the team, ironically gets shot through the head with a needler. Carter, the commander and captain of the team, ‘goes down with the ship’. Emile, a lover of knives and arguably almost psycho, gets stabbed with an energy sword fighting an elite in hand to hand combat. Noble 6 goes down fighting as a lone wolf, what he really is. And Jun, the sniper who likes to keep his distance and avoid direct contact survives by evacuating Halsey and getting her away from the planet

Watching this in 2021. It's funny how HiddenXperia started the video by saying "Welcome to the year of Halo Infinite" and that "it feels good to say it with confidence this time" but later in 2020, they delayed it to this year lol. But now, in 2021, we can say for sure this is the year of Halo Infinite.

[@maroftheflameandshadows]

Master chief and Noble 6 share a spot as my all time favorite spartan's, but Emile is definitely my second or third depending on how you look at it.

Ok bro Emile was already my fav noble spartan but this just make me love him more and dude the way you made this video plus the music in the background made it 10x more enjoyable edit: what is the background music at 12:09

[@HiddenXperia]

Thanks bro :) It's the SIcario 2 theme, it's called 'The Beast' on the soundtrack but it's based on a piece of music called 'Sons of Pythagoras'. I thought it fit really well with the topic of the video, the final act in particular had really similar vibes to both Sicario movies

Emile's shields were still active after he "died," while I know the elites were also, but I've wondered if Emile's shields were still up due to his armor locking to save his life, I doubt it, but it would still be cool if he really didn't die

I thought the term "Demon" wasn't just for chief and was for Spartans in general?

[@crazy13alex]

@@ockie1544 A bit of both. The Covenant did refer to all Spartans as "Demon" but 117 would become the main image of the Spartans to Mankind, and Demons to the Covenant. Because he's the one that wouldn't DIE.

[@Aredel]

I wonder if "Demon" became the Chief's Callsign.

[@rebornskeleton5232]

@@Aredel remember that one elite in halo 3 that said, "Hurry demon, we seek the same prize. But our Shipmaster will sacrifice all to stop the flood."

[@Aredel]

As the Arbiter said, the term “Demon” was an insult towards the Master Chief. What I am saying is if the UNSC gave him the actual Callsign “Demon” even putting it on his dog tags. Also, I have not heard that from the elites in Halo 3. Thank you for telling me.

[@michaelandreipalon359]

Once more, the fandom sure expanded more storytelling depth to an already profound and deep video game and the video game series franchise surrounding it. Mayhaps you should make a video about Reach's Superintendent from the webcomic. Again, not officially canon, but it sure is an interesting character in the storyline enough to warrant an exploratory video like this. Edit: I also love the fact that the UNSC officially borrowed the Death's Head EVA designed soon after Emile's notable actions wearing it (which explains why it's an unlockable helmet back in the pre-MCC days of Reach).
