The 21st Space Assault Battalion (21st SAB/ODST), also known as the Black Daggers, is a veteran battalion of the Orbital Drop Shock Troopers, a special operations capable reconnaissance force of the UNSC Marine Corps. Unlike most ODSTs, the Black Daggers receive special training and equipment for zero-gravity operations.

History
The 21st Space Assault Battalion has a long history of Insurrection|combating Insurrectionists. In 2525 alone, the Black Daggers stormed and captured eighteen insurrectionist facilities, in locations ranging from low planetary orbit to deep transitional space. At some point prior to 2526#March|March 2526, they led a raid on a United Rebel Front-controlled supply depot at Bomogin, capturing it before the rebels even knew they were there.
By 2526#March|March 8, 2526 they were assigned to Captain Halima Ascot's Task Force Yama for the duration of Operation: SILENT STORM, a mission with the goal of stealthily Naval boarding|boarding and destroying as many Covenant vessels as possible and buy time for Human|humanity. At this time, the battalion was led by Colonel Marmon Crowther. Although Captain Ascot had full authority over the task force, once the ODSTs and the complement of twelve SPARTAN-II program|Spartans were deployed, command would transfer to Colonel Crowther. During the slipspace journey to Biko, Staff Sergeant Avery Johnson began working with the Black Daggers as they trained against the Spartans. At first, the marines proved to be no match for the Spartans, but that all changed when Johnson introduced some new, unorthodox strategies. He began spending the "lives" of his men like coins, buying opportunities to deal hard blows to the Spartans. This was a tactic that no sane UNSC commander would utilize except in the most dire circumstances, but it was one that the Covenant was known to use often. While the Spartans continued to outclass the individual ODSTs, victory was no longer certain when facing large numbers who now knew how to coordinate an effective assault. Four days into the training, Colonel Crowther had the entire battalion of Black Daggers gather to be briefed on his plan to board and destroy Covenant vessels. The Spartans would be split up, with each of the twelve being assigned to a single platoon. They would be the ones carrying the nukes. However, John-117 disagreed with this plan and Johnson backed him up. Ultimately the plan would change to one more suited to the Spartans' skills.
Upon arriving in the Kolaqoa system on 2526#March|March 18, Task Force Yama set course for Seoba and Seoba Ice Quarry|the abandoned ice quarry that had been selected to house their prowlers until the Covenant arrived. Eager to not waste time that could be used for training, Colonel Crowther decided that the Black Daggers and John-117's Spartans would practice a full-scale landing into the quarry, dubbed Operation: ICE DANCE. With the drop bays of the task force's s packed full with forty-two ODSTs each, it would take time for them all to be deployed into the moon's low gravity, which would have each platoon strewn across a thirty-kilometer area unless they slowed down. Because of the Spartans' seeming lack of experience, Crowther also had each of them at the back of the drop bays, making them the last to deploy and in the absolute worst position to provide support, according to John's assessment.
While on approach, Task Force Yama intercepted COM|communications from the Biko Independence Army, revealing that they were in the process of preparing a coup against Biko's chancellor and that these insurrectionists were presently occupying the very same quarry that they were approaching. With the doing its best to block any transmissions from the moon, Crowther announced to his men that Operation: ICE DANCE was no longer a drill and that their insertion would likely be hot. He also ordered them to eliminate any communications equipment that they came across while on the ground, in the event that the insurgents had found a way around the jamming. For operational security, all Black Daggers would identify themselves as members of the Chancellor's Guards to any insurrectionist captives.
Once the prowlers reached their designated drop off zones and began deploying off their infantry complement, the entrenched insurrectionists tore into the ODSTs with M41 Vulcans. As Lieutenant Nelly Hamm of Alpha Company's First Platoon was busy tending to a wounded trooper he had handed her, John-117 disobeyed orders and leapt from the to face the insurgents head-on, with the rest of Blue Team following his lead. They softened up the insurrectionists enough for many of the Black Daggers to deploy safely. Ghost Flight managed to disable the enemy's communications center in their attack run, but the Spartans soon had to focus on preventing them from repairing it to call for reinforcements. As a form of payback for disobeying orders, Lieutenant Hamm tricked the Spartans into being a distraction so that her men could stop the insurgents from repairing the relay themselves. With the relay permanently disabled and enough ODSTs safely deployed, the ice quarry soon fell under UNSC control. During the battle, Captain (UNICOM)|Captain Zelos Cuvier, the commanding officer of the Black Dagger's Alpha Company, was killed, resulting in Crowther promoting Lieutenant Hamm to the rank of captain and the new commanding officer of Alpha Company. By the time the battle came to a temporary halt, 127 Black Daggers had been killed.
The very next day, Crowther's men had repurposed the quarry's Assembly Chamber 4L430 for an informal debriefing led by Captain Ascot. A UNSC flag was hung on the chamber's polycrete-coated walls, with portable standing lights and a folding conference table also set up for the debriefing. Along with Captain Ascot and Colonel Crowther, the meeting also included Lieutenant Commander Hector Nyeto of Ghost Flight, now-Captain Nelly Hamm, Avery Johnson, John-117, and Catherine Halsey|Dr. Catherine Halsey. Here, they discussed the difficulties with the previous day's battle, particular those faced by Alpha Company. They had suffered a thirty-two percent casualty rate and lost their captain, while the rest of the battalion only saw a loss of six percent of their men and did not lose a single captain. After John's maverick action aboard the ''Ghost Song'' came up, the discussion turned to the young Spartan's age. Ultimately, the truth was revealed that John and his fellow Spartans were all around the age of fifteen, and Crowther refused to send them into battle again as a result. The conversation then turned to why the insurrectionists had seemingly been ready for their arrival, with John realizing and convincing the others that they had instead been waiting for the Covenant, with the intent to meet them for negotiations and to perhaps form an alliance. While they were planning for the Covenant's inevitable arrival, Bloodstar Flotilla|a flotilla of the alien ships appeared in-system and set course for Seoba. The other UNSC leaders then rushed out of the chamber to ready their forces for the imminent continuation of the battle, as Crowther remained where he was to talk with John. He assigned the Spartans to guard and load the captured insurrectionists into Emmeline|a transport as the Black Daggers mobilized to ambush the Covenant.
Only minutes later, most of the battalion had boarded the prowlers of Task Force Yama and launched from Seoba. Captain Ascot's and the other vessels of Night Flight had just received the last company of Black Daggers when the Covenant flotilla began bombarding the quarry. Ascot ordered the prowlers to launch immediately, but the ''Starry Night'' was struck on takeoff, causing it to crash into the quarry wall. Only Staff Sergeant Johnson and four Black Daggers survived the crash, and they were unable to radio their status to the rest of the task force. The ODSTs aboard the other prowlers of Night Flight were eager to search for survivors, but Colonel Crowther turned down their offer, not wanting to lose more men by sending them into the orbital bombardment. John-117 decided that he and his Spartans would check on the status of the ''Starry Night'' instead, once they finished their task of moving the prisoners. The Spartans ventured out into the ice quarry and reached the prowler to find Worthy Silence|a single Covenant intrusion corvette securing it for recovery. Despite numerous setbacks, a team led by Frederic-104 managed to board the ''Starry Night'', secure Johnson and the ODSTs, arm the vessel's Fury tactical nuclear weapon|nuke, and flee with the survivors in an escape pod. The Nuclear weapon|nuclear explosion destroyed both the ''Starry Night'' and the looming corvette.
On 2526#March|March 20, the cremated remains of the Black Daggers and prowler crews that had been killed during the events of the previous two days were placed into two-hundred-and-three gray interment capsules and taken to the ''Vanishing Point''s command Hangar bay|hangar. With an honor company of one-hundred-and-one officers and one-hundred-and-one enlisted personnelincluding a number of Black Daggers and six Spartansin attendance, Ojombo|a chaplain led a funeral service in honor of the fallen. After she gave an emotional speech about the honor of service and sacrifice, the chaplain stepped aside for Lieutenant Commander Nyetonow the de facto commander of Task Force Yama after Ascot's deathto deliver his Committal speech. Nyeto had Staff Sergeant Johnson ceremoniously call the honor company to attention, order the AlON pressure barrier|pressure barrier be raised, and direct the hangar's exterior to hatch be opened, thus allowing the interment capsules to be swept out into deep space. As this occurred, Nyeto recited his speech, having Johnson order the hatch closed and dismiss the company afterward. Only a handful of senior officers and the Spartans stayed behind after the service to hear what their new commander had planned as their next move. Nyeto approached John-117, complementing him on what he and his compatriots had accomplished the day prior. When John asked if he would reconsider sidelining them due to their age, Nyeto promised that they would be seeing all the action that they could handle for the rest of the operation. Hearing this, Colonel Crowther strode forward and told him that that decision was not his to make as the Spartans still reported to him. However, Nyeto reminded the colonel that he now reported to ''him'', and that they needed the obvious talents of the Spartans. This argument continued until Crowther threatened him with a report to a UNSC board of inquiry. At that, Nyeto relented and promised to run their next ambush by the book, with only the Black Daggers participating in the mission.
As everyone departed from the hangar in a shocked silence, Crowther sought out Johnson and walked with him back to the Black Daggers' quarters. The staff sergeant warned Crowther that his disagreement with Nyeto was not a "pissing match" he was going to win. It had been decided far above the colonel's pay grade that the Spartans were ''not'' children and that they were the right fit for the mission. Crowther actually agreed with this sentiment, saying that the Spartans had saved them at Seoba and that they were ready for battle. Still, he revealed to Johnson that he was suspicious of Nyeto and his strange attitude toward the Spartans. It had seemed like Nyeto purposefully stalled in supporting them during the previous day's battle. As such, Crowther wanted to keep the Spartans away from Nyeto until he figured out what was going on. To this end, he informed Johnson that he was sending him and the Spartans on Battle over Etalan|a mission to sabotage the Covenant's supply chain at Etalan while most of the task force and the Black Daggers stayed at Biko.
Later that day, the Fleet of Inexorable Obedience|expected Covenant fleet of about one hundred warships arrived at Biko and prepared to assault the planet. As planned, Task Force Yama deployed with the Black Daggers in tow, hoping to insert the ODSTs onto as many vessels as possible. However, the Covenant had learned of their plan, and expected the Spartans to board their warships, as they Battle of Chi Ceti|had Skirmish over Netherop|done with the ''Unrelenting'' and ''Radiant Arrow''. To try to prevent this, they kept a tight fighter screen around their capital ships so that no prowlers could easily slip past. This forced Colonel Crowther to delay all boarding actions until an opportunity presented itself. Meanwhile, the Covenant fleet accelerated toward Biko's meager navy, showing no signs of slowing down.
The space battle over Biko lasted for five days, and during that time, Task Force Yama attempted to deliver members of the Black Daggers to at least one vessel of the Covenant fleet. When a detachment of Black Daggers attempted to board the ''Purifying Flame'', they were captured before they could destroy the warship. Mind melters were ordered to interrogate the ODSTs, though they saw little success. Their extreme resistance to interrogation lead to them being handed over to Castor|two Orsun|particular Jiralhanae to get information out of them their way. The Jiralhanae played a "game" they called "tossers" with the ODSTs; this involved tearing the limbs off of some of the captives in such a way that it would not kill them immediately, requiring their companions to help them eat, drink, and eliminate. However, before they ran out of prisoners, all the Jiralhanae could get out of them was the names of the twelve Spartans attached to their battle group, the name of the battle group, as well as the name of the battalion in which the ODSTs serve.
After Operation: SILENT STORM, the remaining members of the battalion were dispersed to train other units. As a result, during Operation: OBLIVION, Admiral Cole didn't have anyone available to send with Blue Team and instead had to rely on regular infantry Marines.Halo: Oblivion, ''page 64''
Equipment Due to the nature of their usual deployments, members of the 21st Space Assault Battalion are issued a space-assault variant of ODST armor, which is vacuum-sealed for use in extra-vehicular activity|extra-vehicluar operations in space, such as boarding actions. The armor is also shielded against the effects of electromagnetic pulses.

The year 2200 BCE saw a major turning point in the history of the San'Shyuum (Prophets). After centuries of unity the San'Shyuum become divided into two groups, the Stoics who believe that Forerunner relics were sacred and not to be altered, and the Reformists who wish to more closely examine the artifacts and use them for their own purposes.

The 23rd Armored Cavalry was a UNSC Army unit.
Operational history During the Battle of Draetheus V, there were several lofty bridges spanning an enormous gorge called the Epsilon Expanse which allowed for access to the southern plateau where the majority of Covenant landing zones were located. The Covenant quickly secured these bridges and held UNSC forces at bay with Emp'seam-pattern Antlion|heavy artillery. Sarah Palmer escorted the 23rd Armored Cavalry to the Epsilon Expanse, but the Scorpion tanks would not have survived the guaranteed heavy artillery fire. Palmer took a small team of UNSC Marine Corps|marines across one of the bridges. Palmer managed to infiltrate the Covenant camps and destroy several artillery turrets, giving the Scorpions the chance to advance and launch a counter-offensive.Halo: Spartan Assault, ''Mission 9: Battle for Epsilon Expanse''
With the Covenant's southern forces exposed, Palmer and the 23rd Armored Cavalry's massive column of Scorpions and Grizzlys rushed across the Red Slate plateau on a collision course with several Covenant tank battalions. Only a UNSC counter-offensive would prevent Faraday Base from being crushed between the northern and southern front. The 23rd had brought eighty-six vehicles to Draetheus V. After the battle at Red Slate, there were only eight functioning vehicles left.Halo: Spartan Assault, ''Mission 10: Battle at Red Slate''

05-2401 Penitent Tangent was the monitor of Halo Array|Halo Installation 05.
Biography
2401 Penitent Tangent, as well as the other six monitors, was present at the dispersion of the activation index|activation indexes prior to the firing of the Halo Array|Halo weapons near the end of the Forerunner-Flood war.
Penitent Tangent was charged with regularly scheduled communications with the other Halo array monitors for updates. Several millennia after the rings were fired, though, he ceased sending these messages. Penitent Tangent was the last monitor to send a message to 343 Guilty Spark on Installation 04, though Guilty Spark described his final messages as "incomplete and quite perplexing," and logged his concerns about Penitent Tangent's ability to perform his duties, believing he had not been functioning correctly for some time before his messages ceased.Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary Terminals, Terminal 4 These reports were recieved by the Edom Terminal\Juridical on Mars, and later noted by Catalog around the 2558.
At some point, Unidentified ancilla (Installation 05)|another artificial intelligence construct warned 2401 Penitent Tangent of a pending outbreak in one the installation's Flood Flood containment facility|containment facilities. The monitor continued to ignore this warning, and those that followed, for millennia. Within 2552|99,779 years, the containment facility had been overrun by the Flood, with lockdown protocols in effect within the Halo's teleportation grid to prevent further infestation. By around the year 93 BC, the Edom Terminal\Juridical had received an incomplete Cold Storage Reports|report filed by an ancilla on Delta Halo (presumably the same as the aforementioned), and responded in kind by requesting that the Delta Halo ancillae continue the correspondence through properly-secured channels. These events were also noted by Catalog in 2558.
Eventually, the Quarantine Zone was established and the full force of the installation's Sentinels and Enforcers was mobilized.
By 2552#November|November 2, 2552, 2401 Penitent Tangent had been captured by the Flood and was held captive by the Gravemind that had manifested on Installation 05. After the battle on the ring had raged for some time, the Gravemind absorbed and reanimated the Prophet of Regret, one of the Hierarchs of the Covenant. Later, SPARTAN-II program|Spartan John-117 and Arbiter Thel 'Vadamee were also captured by the Gravemind. Upon seeing John, a Reclaimer, the monitor urged the Spartan to activate the ring. This was immediately objected to by Regret, who insisted that nothing could be done until he had completed his sermon in preparation for the Covenant religion|Great Journey. The monitor countered that the installation had a firing record of 1.2 trillion simulated, and one actual thus making the ring fully prepared to fire on demand. The Hierarch then retorted that the "Oracles" were the most worthless artifacts that had been left by the Forerunners, prompting the monitor to berate Regret for his lack of regard for protocol. Amid the argument, the Gravemind insisted that the four factions represented in the meeting shared a common goal: preventing the ring from being activated. Shortly thereafter, the Gravemind used the monitor's control of Installation 05's teleportation grid to send the Spartan to ''High Charity'' and 'Vadamee to Halo's Control Room (Installation 05)|control room, respectively, in an attempt to stop the activation of the Halo array. The current status of 2401 Penitent Tangent is unknown.
Trivia
2401 Penitent Tangent was voiced by John Michael Higgins. Like all monitors, 2401 Penitent Tangent's numerical designation is derived from seven raised to one less than the number of his installation (7n-1). This is one of Bungie's numerous references to the number seven in the ''Halo'' series.
"Penitent" means ''feeling or expressing sorrow for sin or wrongdoing and [being] disposed to atonement and amendment''" and is synonymous with "repentant". "Tangent" is part of the idiom "off on a tangent", which refers to ''digressing suddenly from one course of action or thought and turning to another''.
2401 Penitent Tangent appears in the ''Halo 2'' multiplayer map ''Backwash''. He hovers around the map and is invulnerable to damage.
