He leads the remaining human forces in a attack on the prophet of truth's dreadnought, but the attack was a failure when the forerunner artifact under New Mombasa activated, creating a portal to the Ark. When Master Chief, Commander Keyes and several Elite and human forces choose to follow the Prophet through the portal, Hood decides to stay behind to make a final stand on earth. He was born in 2492.
