ODST Planning Thingummies

[[Kaisu] Elizabeth Clarke]

Anyways, this is more or less just a compilation of ideas for the ODST characters that will be coming someday.

There's some epic concept arts I've found for various ODST armours:

Those last three do have set purposes, the rightmost one of the last compilation looks like a medic-type to me.

Here's a picture of the normal suit.

Anyways, my idea was that most of the trainees for the ODST would be from the Marines, seeing the ODST were an elite division of the UNSC's Marines in the Halo universe. They would still have the pods that they use to enter in, but those would mainly be used if it's a dire situation and they need to get men in extremely quickly.

The VIS,R system I like, but considering this world's canon it wouldn't make much sense, as it was accessed using the grid.

Anyways, that was just a little show-and-tell, if anyone wants to make one or has any ideas, post?

I have a suggestion, if you've watched Red Vs Blue then you'll remember Sharkface and the other insurgent ODST's from Season 9. Now they all looked unique but had the same basic armour and colour scheme.

From left to right: The Big Guy, The Chick, The Engineer, The Leader, The Sniper and "Sharkface" (The flamethrower dude).

Then again this is mostly up because I have been obsessed with Red Vs Blue as of late.

I like that idea xP

Seeing as it's a government military project, it could be that there are many different teams.

Also, epic screencap.

[CREW GUYS]

Dibs on the Engineer! Or would that be in bad taste?

[[Kaisu] Elizabeth Clarke]

Tbh I don't want to go tropes on this, but yeah.

[Suzie Miyazaki]

Many different teams is a good idea. What is the ODST project again? A Rival to Project Generation?

[[Kaisu] Elizabeth Clarke]

Yeah. A more military based alternative to Anti-Kaijin measures. The Generation Project (And by extension, the Victory Project) were too exclusive, and so this would be an alternative take.

[Suzie Miyazaki]

A strike force as opposed to an individual soldier?

[[Kaisu] Elizabeth Clarke]

Yeah.

Nice ... they need to face off against Keith and Kyle.
