Obi

Captain Obi is a minor character within the Orion Nero Initiative series. Obi is a member of the 1st Infantry BCT, and commanding officer of Blackjack Company. Obi is only seen a handful of times with his infantry company before his death early on in the series.

The capture of Sword Base
Captain Obi leads Blackjack Company to help capture the Alvitr Central Security Forward Operations Base that would later become known as Forward Operations Base Sword. After Anvil Team seizes the base's command centre, Obi and his company fly in and take over the base extremely easily, whereby the base becomes the main ONI Forward Operating Base that would operate in Katona.

Operation Fury Scorpion
Obi's last appearance is at the the briefing before the invasion of Lancaster, as part of Operation Fury Scoprion, code name for the First Strike on ACS Territory. After the operation brief with the battalion commander, Obi and the other company commanders of the 1st Infantry Battalion wager one thousand dollars on the last company commander to reach their designated landing zone.

After the commanding officers split off to fill their companies in, Obi is never seen again after he boards his Stallion with several members of the Company HQ. Blackjack Company is the company that becomes the most displaced out of all eight 1st Battalion infantry companies, with Blackjack's 3rd Platoon being the only ONI force to land at LZ Bandit, and the rest of Blackjack Company landing in with Echo Company at LZ Epsilon. Throughout the battle of Lancaster, no one ever saw or reported Captain Obi's C-7E Stallion landing, and was presumed to be shot down. It was later confirmed that upon entering the city, Captain Obi and the entire Blackjack Company HQ team were shot down.

Captain Obi lost the wager for being the last commanding officer to reach their designated Landing Zone, but because Obi was killed in action, the wager was cancelled since there was no way Obi could pay up.
