DescriptionEdit

Little is known about Serina other than the fact that she acts as a Military Advisory AI, which may or may not be her only function.^[1] She is a smart AI,^[2] which is usually a sign of advanced memory capacity, like Cortana. In contrast, other AI's known throughout the Halo galaxy exhibit only minor aspects of personality. Her avatar is a young female with long hair, and her attire resembles a lab coat. She appears to speak in a generic, or received pronunciation, English accent. Beneath all her sarcastic comments and seemingly uncaring attitude, she turns out to be a lot nicer than she seems.^[3] She also appears to have a fascination with human relationships and chocolate.^[4]

As the Spirit of Fire was too far away from UNSC territory and traveling without a Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine, it is unlikely that Serina was deleted.

QuotesEdit

• "Recalling surface squads so we can all die together. Aye, sir!"^[5]
• "Well, this is new...and scary." (Upon seeing the Flood)^[1]
• "The MAC is online and primed. Payback time!"^[1]
• "Expecting trouble, Captain?"
• "Standard orbit achieved, all systems normal."
• "So...nothing too difficult, then?"
• "Here are some reinforcements, play nice."
• "So...we left a note saying we're leaving, right?"
• "Well, it'll be pretty obvious if he succeeds."
• "Aye sir. Crazy mystery trip to Arcadia plotted in, spinning up FTL drive."
• "Threading a needle while accelerating around an exploding star inside a planet that's falling apart? Sure, why not?"
• "So...am I the only one freaked out by the fact that we're inside the planet?"
• "Closing your eyes might help, too."
• "Captain, wake up. Something has happened."

TriviaEdit

• Serina seems to have a theoretical interest in chocolate.
• "Spinning up FTL drive" may be a reference to the re-imagined Battlestar Galactica, which uses this phrase frequently when the Fleet jumps.
• Serina, knowing the crew of the Spirit of Fire may be on a one-way trip, manufactured and delivered fake emails from family members to the crew celebrating Valentine's Day. No one ever suspected her of this deception.^[6]
• She has a very sarcastic and detached nature. She frequently seems to disregard the lives of others, even her own ship's crew - such as when the Spirit of Fire is slowly being pulled inside the Shield World - almost always responding to their peril with some curious remark or dark joke.
• She was voiced by Courtenay Taylor.
• Her name "Serina" means "Serene", or "Calm". This is a reflection of her personality which can be described as cold or uncaring even when she and her ship are in danger.
• Serina's only human memory is "kissing a boy".
• After completing the game on Legendary, Serina will say "Captain, wake up; something has happened." After that, she will repeat that quote if the last level is completed.
• Serina,s Serial Number SNA 1292-4
