Thomas Lasky

Captain Thomas J. Laskey is a hero from the Halo Universe.

He's a human senior naval officer of the UNSC Navy who served during the Human-Covenant War and the final fight with Ur-Didact. He is one of the captains and is the head commander of the UNSC Infinity.

He started as a cadet at Corbulo Academy of Military Science on Circinius IV. His mother was a Colonel in the UNSC and his older brother was a graduate of Corbulo Academy whom after graduation, became an ODST (Orbital Drop Shock Trooper), in which Lasky communicated with during his down-time.

Lasky's lack of proficiant knowledge of infantry combat tactics and constant disregard for the orders of his superiors, believing they wouldn't work, had caused his reputation at the school to suffer. What's worse is that his health was declining due to alergic reactions to cytoprethaline, a drug vital for cryosleep in order to prevent cell loss, causing serious blistering and cronic coughs.

He was one of the three survivors of the entire planet of Circinius IV, as Covenant Forces attacked the entire planet. After Lasky sent out a distress beacon and were about to be attacked by a Sangheili, they were eventually found and rescued by Master Chief Petty Officer John-117. Before being extracted by two other SPARTAN-II's, Lasky's love interest, Chyler Silva, died from a wound from a Needler projectile.

After the defeat of the Didact, Lasky was granted full command of the UNSC Infinity, the most powerful warship in the UNSC. He was proceeded by Andrew Del Rio.
