Multiplayer

The "Multiplayer" series is a new series of short stories that Sangheilioz has recently started writing. The series is based on the Halo 3 multiplayer experience, but attempts to shed new light on the characters in these games.

Background
Inspiration for Multiplayer struck Sangheilioz one day as he was working. He had recently been re-reading the Halo book series, and was contemplating the theater feature of Halo 3. He thought of it as being a means to retell the stories of multiplayer exploits, but felt saddened that it was limited to only those who played the game and took the time to download and view these "films." He decided that there was a need to share the universe of Halo's multiplayer in a more immersive way, going beyond the simple re-enactments of matches and delving into the characters themselves.

And there it was: The vastly untapped universe of Halo 3 multiplayer called to him to be captured in words.

Capture The Flag
The first installment in the Multiplayer series, Capture The Flag is a short, personal perspective on a High Ground Capture the Flag game. The story details the disorientation of a character as he is thrust into the "game" without briefing, as well as the confusion regarding the "respawning" of teammates, as well as himself, since it is an entirely bizarre notion that one would repeatedly return to life after being killed.

It has been noted that the fate of these soldiers is one "worse than death," as they are trapped in an endless cycle of fighting and restlesss death.
