John 117, or more commonly know as Master chief is a genetically enhanced human.
He was, kidnapped by the UNSC (United Nations Space Command) at the very young age of 6
and replaced by a flash clone so his friends and family would never know.
John was one of 74 children “chosen” to be in the Spartan II program. All of the children
survived the rigorous training, and after a specifically hard exercise in which John took control
and got all of his team mates through, he was promoted to the Spartan II’s leader.
After the Spartans training they were biologically and cyberneticly augmented and enhanced.
But only John and 31 of the others survived the process.
