The United Nations Space Command is the government that controls all the worlds in the Halo universe. It operates out of the United Nations. There are a few sections of the UNSC, the UNSC Marine Corps, The UNSC Navy, ONI (The Office of Naval Intelligence), and the little known UNSC Army.

The UNSC has fought several major battles in its history, starting with the Jovian Moons campaign, the Rainforest Wars, all the way to humanity's near extinction with the UNSC/Covenant War in which they emerged victoriously.

The UNSC has defeated the covenant in the war. Everyone's happy.

UNSC

UNSC stands for: United Nations Space Colonies. It is used mostly in the Halo books, but you may catch some people saying it in the Halo video games.

A deranged Marine- OMFG!! THAT GRUNT JUST BLEW UP ALL THE UNSC COLONIES!!

Master Chief- Relax, you numskull. What you saw was what is going to happen to you when you finally find out that you have half a dozen needlers sticking in your side. Oh, and they were launched by a grunt too.

murderhobo

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.

DM: The sad little orphan girl tugs at Steve's trenchcoat to get his attention, and ask for help saving her pet dog from...

Dave: I call dibs on the dog.
DM: You murderhobos disgust me.
