Lieutenant Commander Isaiah Carter is one of the first and few humans to join the ranks of the Spectres and is also a member of the elite Systems Alliance special forces division -- Section Zero.
Being a graduate of the N7 program and a veteran of the famous Skyllian Blitz are the least important factors of his career. Carter has taken part in numerous highly-classified operations across the galaxy including an undercover operation within Cerberus lasting for nearly four years.
Background[]
Overview[]
The son of two Navy personnel, Isaiah always knew that he would one day join the Alliance military. The majority of his childhood would be spent preparing for his inevitable enlistment, conditioning his body with intense exercises and training his mind by studying famous battles. He would enlist at the age of 17 but instead of becoming a Navy serviceman like his parents, he joined the Alliance Marine Corps.
His life in the Marine Corps was far from easy. He fought in the Skyllian Blitz with so much skill and valor that the eyes of high-ranking personnel from several special forces units within the Marine Corps ultimately came down on him. Ultimately, Isaiah would join Section Zero and disappear from the ranks of the Marines without warning. It was then that he began several high-priority missions against Cerberus, the Shadow Broker, and the batarians.
After these operations, Isaiah would gain information on an operation near the Perseus Veil that eventually led to the discovery of a Reaper artifact and it's dangerous affects on the mind. He would be the first human to fight against the Heretics under Saren's control and gain clues to the incoming Reaper threat. Though these clues were originally viewed as irrelevant by SAS-0, the arrival of Sovereign and Shepard's fight changed there minds. Isaiah was thus given just one task: stop the Reapers by any means necessary.
