The Rookie is the silent protagonist of Halo 3: ODST. A newcomer to his squad of ODSTs, The Rookie was knocked out for six hours following the initial drop over New Mombasa, and must attempt to find his squad and exit the embattled city.

Biograph

On October 20, 2552, the rookie and his squad along with other ODST members were stationed aboard the UNSC Battle Cruiser(Designated - [Classified]), with only one mission, to take out the prophet of regret positioned above New Mombasa. At the last moment before beginning the drop, ONI operative Dare took control over Buck's squad, to use them for a classified mission. The Rookie himself, however did not here this because he was off-duty at the time. He was informed of the change in mission when Buck alerted the team to an emergency debrief.

As Buck's squad was dropping toward the covenant ship, Dare changed the team's course so that they would land close to ONI alpha base near new mobasa. Moments before they were going to hit the ground the Covenant ship went into slip space generating a massive shock wave and a EMP blast, scattering all of the pods across the city. Rookie's pod, in particular, smashed into Mickey's pod, cracking the pod's window and throwing The Rookie into free fall. The Rookie was knocked unconscious, only to awake 6 hours later. The superintendent uploaded a map to his VISR database, and lighted the way so that he could get through the city safely. As the Rookie explored the city more and more, he has tried to piece together clues to find out what happened to his squad mates while avoiding attacks from the covenant.
