Spartan-II Candidate And John's Friend
People are loving the new Paramount series Halo and the characters being introduced in the show. Here’s everything about Soren, a Spartan soldier introduced in the second episode.
Game-based TV series Halo was released in March this year, and the second episode of the series just dropped. The story is getting interesting, and new characters are appearing with each episode. The second episode of Halo focuses a lot on Soren from the start. Basically, the episode was a lot about Soren and John’s reunion after a long time. As an old friend, Master Chief John asks for a favor from Soren to keep Kwan safe until his return. Soren gives his words for the girl’s safety, and John returns to Madrigal. Fans might be wondering who Soren is, a person whom John trusts, his relation to the Spartans, and everything about him.

The second episode of the series showed a glimpse of the past when John and Soren used to be together in the training facility. They both plan to escape the place, but John changes his mind. He tries to stop Soren from escaping too, but he has made up his mind. In the present time, Soren is living in a settlement known as Rubble with his wife and son. It’s a place where hundreds of floating asteroids are connected to each other using large pipes.

Soren-066 was a Spartan-II soldier of UNSC who was born in the Dwarka colony. Soren had a hard childhood; his mother died of an unknown sickness when he was just six years old. His stepfather didn’t do anything about it due to the fear of getting caught because of his illegal business. Fate did the same thing to Soren’s stepfather. He got contaminated with the same disease, and Soren watched his father die rather than getting him some help.
It’s clearly visible in the series that Soren has a deformed hand, and he blames UNSC for his condition. Well, this happened when he was given the muscular enhancement injections, along with thyroid implantation. But the results were not what everyone expected. His hand got deformed permanently, making it hard for him to use weaponry. So instead of field duty, he was given a desk job.
