Red
Unit R is a series of Protocol Robots. The ones located in Outpost Pit Fall are designed to partake in simulated firefights against trainee soldiers to prepare them for combat. One of these robots was used by Ignacio Dominguez to investigate an incident on Outpost High Ground, called Red The Hunter.
Role in Plot
Red Training Robot
In Boss, Red is recruited by Ignacio Dominguez and Alana Reynolds against his will to take part in a real military operation and is deactivated by Ignacio to do so. The next day, in Upgrade, Red is reactivated alongside the other training robots and informed more about their incoming mission by Ignacio Dominguez and led by Spartan Louie Vargas to investigate a suspected Flood outbreak, much to Red's enjoyment. Upon landing on Outpost High Ground with Louie and the other robots in Deception, he is tasked with watching their backs with his sniper rifle. Despite this, Red is immediately apprehended by three Sangheili as soon as the others walked away from him.
The next day, in Ambush, Riel and Kazi hold Red and the other robots as prisoner as Riel explains that she and her companions are members of The Damned before Corvus enters to explain the situation and attempts recruiting Red and the other robots to join The Damned, though Red wakes up midway through the conversation. After Blue is eliminated, Red joins Yellow and Green in a warthog to follow Corvus and the Sangheili but is immediately attacked and blown up by Emery Eden with all three being destroyed.
