Tech Chief Thom Shephard was an Engineering Technician for the UNSC aboard the UNSC cruiser Pillar of Autumn in 2552. He, along with Tech Officer Sam Marcus, unsealed the Master Chief from the Cryo-chamber at the beginning of Halo: Combat Evolved.[1] He runs the Chief through several diagnostics and tests his MJOLNIR Mark V armor. Soon after, Captain Keyes calls the Chief to the bridge of the ship. A single Elite enters the control center of Cryo-B, killing Sam. Thom then tells the Chief to follow him to the bridge and rushes out the door, where he is killed by a conduit explosion in the wall.
