Biography
Staffan Sentzke was orignally a factory worker from the colony-world Sansar, where he lived with his wife and with his daughter, Naomi. His daughter was kidnapped for the Spartan II Program in 2517. The Sentzkes were initally relieved when a clone of their daughter was returned to them, however, it died eighteen months later. They were told it was from a genetic illness. Staffan's wife was concerned that she could pass this disease to future children and asked to be sterilized. Six months later, she slashed her wrists and died. Staffan then insisted that the girl that had died was not his daughter, that it was all a government conspiracy. Sansar was glassed during the Human-Covenant War, but Staffan wasn't on it. He somehow found his way to Venezia, a hotspot for Insurrectionist activity, where he became an outspoken anti-UNSC terrorist, dealing, among other things, in nuclear weapons.
