Legacy-One (A Halo Audio Drama)
Project Overview
Halo: Legacy-One (A Fan Audio Drama)
After years of rewrites, pauses, complete restarts, and odd bursts of creative inspiration, Halo: Legacy-One is in production and we'd love to have you on the team!
Legacy-One is a FAN story of heroism, doubt, the will to fight, and what it means to be human. Set in the year 2551, humanity is on the brink of collapse after over two decades of war against the alien alliance known as the Covenant. Worlds once thought invincible have fallen to the Covenant’s relentless onslaught. The United Nations Space Command (UNSC) stands as humanity’s last line of defense against total annihilation. On the inner colony world of Imber, Fireteam Legacy-One, stationed aboard the UNSC Spark in the Night, finds itself at the heart of humanity’s fight for survival. This is their story.
This audio drama will span multiple episodes, with the first episode slated for release in Fall 2025. Auditions close at the end of July, but roles may be cast before the deadline.

CLAIRE IS THE PROTAGONIST OF THIS SERIES
Lieutenant Commander Claire S-135 is a Spartan-II supersoldier, the ranking officer of Legacy-One, and the de facto Company Commander of the 44th Marine Regiment stationed aboard the UNSC Spark in the Night. Kidnapped for the Spartan-II program in 2511, she spent her childhood under the watchful eye of the Office of Naval Intelligence and project lead Dr. Catherine Halsey. Claire underwent brutal and inhumane training, indoctrination, and augmentation.
During augmentation procedures in 2525, she was one of many “washouts” from the program, presumed dead by her fellow Spartan-IIs and placed in cryo stasis, with Dr. Catherine Halsey hopeful about reviving her in the future. This hope was realized in 2530 when she was resuscitated and tasked with leading experimental guerrilla warfare raids against high-value Covenant targets. By 2551, she was a commissioned officer under NAVCOM and deployed with the 44th Marine Regiment. She is also currently serving as the beta test case for Dr. Halsey’s AI Neural Interface, receiving a smart AI in November 2551.
Claire can be described as:
Direct, Heroic, Unsocialized, Tragic

Taking out a prophet is a highly destabilizing factor, and that spire is hiding something the Covenant believe is worth risking a ground engagement for.
This far into the war? Of course they're replacements.
No, I don't remember their names.
First Sergeant Marcus “Mark” Adler is a seasoned ODST and a key member of Legacy-One, led by Spartan-II Claire S-135. A veteran of countless high-risk operations, Adler remains level-headed even in missions with staggering casualty projections. His undying loyalty and respect for his colleagues—forged through decades of combat—are absolute, only shattered by betrayal. Adler’s calm professionalism and combat prowess make him a vital asset, complementing Claire’s stoic leadership with grounded reliability. His nickname “Mark,” a play on his name, stems from his devastating efficiency against Covenant forces, leaving a trail of enemy losses dwarfing human casualties.

Yes Ma’am, but are you sure about this? Casualty Expectation is not at all aboveboard.

THIS IS A SUPPORTING ROLE
Smart AI ALX-0325-7 Atara is one of the first AIs ever to be integrated into a suit of MJOLNIR and exists between the mind and suit itself. She is paired with Commander Claire S-135. In contrast to Claire’s stoicism, Atara has a much sharper wit and far less difficulty with socialization. She will be Claire’s emotional anchor, a voice for when Claire can’t find the right words, and an asset to the UNSC that may finally turn the tide of this over two-decade-long conflict.
Atara can be described as Bubbly, Sharp-Witted, Caring

Difficulty with socialization is standard when it comes to Spartan-IIs. So, making sure Claire is completely understood is a primary task for an AI like myself!
I chose you because we're more alike then you think. You're not the only zombie here.
Ma’am we have 3 minutes before we are inside weapons range of the spire’s Triple A emplacements. As well as when they realize we’re about to knock on their door.
Private First Class Jordan “JD” Delaney is an Orbital Drop Shock Trooper, stationed within the 44th Marine Regiment, and a rookie. Jordan has found himself preparing for the fight of his life on his first deployment. Enlisting alongside his friend Private First Class Mia “Dot” Daughtler due to personal circumstances that neither would really like to divulge, Jordan is riddled with doubt about whether or not he has what it takes. This ain’t the life he pictured growing up. As a kid, no one was really sure what was true and what wasn't regarding the war with the covenant However, in 2551, facing his first deployment on Imber, the reality of crashing into a planet in a tear-shaped metal coffin at 800 kilometers an hour has Jordan unsure of everything that has led him to this point. Every motion he makes in his battle uniform, every advisory notice from the shipboard, reminds him he’s a long way from where he came. His friendship with Dot keeps him in check, but deep down, he's not sure he'll be there when it counts.
Jordan can be described as Inexperienced, Reluctant, and Introspective

Hey! Focus! We got a job to do!
Captain Isaac “Skipper” Morano is a seasoned ONI officer masquerading as a military investigator. Accepted for the job as an ONI Intelligence Officer in 2535, he was immediately put to work investigating every little thing the shadowy operations of ONI whispered into his ear. Late to Bounty and early to Meridian, his first year was nothing short of chaos. His ears ringing with the word "spook," interrogating fellow soldiers for key details on battles turned into second nature while on the job. Surprisingly enough, the few who get know realize that he's not half bad for ONI agent. Morano know it's better he take this job than let someone else take advantage of it.
Skipper can be described as Intelligent, Covert, Steady

Okay. *Sighs* This is a Mission Report. Not a psych evaluation. I appreciate the detail, but I think you divulged enough on that account. Tell me about Imber specifically. What happened on the ground after Delta-3 landed?
ONI doesn't even know what ONI does.

Corporal A. Sawyer is an Orbital Drop Shock Trooper (ODST) serving as temporary medbay staff aboard the UNSC Spark in the Night. They are formally a member of the 19th Marine Battalion under the 44th Marine Regiment. Before their transfer to the 44th, Sawyer primarily worked in Combat Rescue Operations, gaining firsthand knowledge of injuries caused by plasma weaponry. Due to a deployment reorganization, they have been tasked with remaining shipside to help restore the medical staff to full strength and efficiency. Sawyer has nearly four years of experience in the UNSC Defense Force (UNSCDF). Additionally, as of the latest request for asset documentation, they have been flagged as a potential candidate for recruitment into the Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI) for field operations.

You can't just lie to Adler every single time you want to slack off in the medbay. We have actual problems to deal with here.
My grandma was navy, my father was a marine, and my brother IS a marine. There was never any other decision.

As soon as Steward gives us the go ahead, I expect nothing but the best from my combat team. Being short-staffed means nothing. I and the Corp will accept nothing, but complete success. Is that understood, PVT Daughtler?
Lock it down!
Save Strategic analysis for the AIs. PVT Daughtler! How we looking?
