Summary
Petty Officer 2nd Class Nicole-458 is a female Spartan featured in the Xbox 360 game Dead or Alive 4. She was born on December 19, 2531 in the city of New Legaspi on Mars. At six years of age she was abducted by agents of the Office of Naval Intelligence and conscripted into the Spartan-III program. Although there is no clear evidence that she was indeed conscripted into the Spartan-III program, the members of the Spartan-II program were abducted much earlier, in the year 2517, rendering Spartan-458 far too young to be a member of the Spartan-II program. Her designation 458 is further proof of her not being part of the Spartan-II program, as there were only 150 candidates were screened (of which 75 of 150 were chosen), all of which were designated a number between 1 and 150.

It is also possible she belongs to an even later program than the Spartan-IIIs.

Her unit was preparing for a classified mission on Nassau Station when the ONI stealth ship Apocalypso (see I Love Bees Synopsis) tumbled into real-space – being carried along in the wake of a freak slipspace anomaly. The anomaly intersected Nassau Station; creating a semi-stable "bubble" in the space/time continuum on its way back to the 21st Century.

For the time being Nicole-458 is trapped in the 21st century; guarding Nassau Station's secrets with all but lethal force (she realizes killing someone in the past could have dire consequences), waiting for the "bubble" to collapse and hopefully returning her to the year 2552.

She does not have a gun to shoot or melee opponents, as that would change the nature of the game. She is a heavy-weight, slow and powerful. There are those which find the slow attribute strange for a SPARTAN, especially encased in the MJOLNIR armour, because each member of the original SPARTAN II project, including John-117 (AKA Master Chief), had much faster reaction times and general speed. Her moves include the Pillar of Autumn (throwing opponents through the air), MAC Lunge (fast right fist), Active Camouflage, the Grunt Punt, the Great Journey, and a Plasma Grenade throw.
