Role in Plot

Blanton was one of the crew members aboard the UNSC Tartarus when it was hijacked by Felix and Locus. Blanton and Kilgore were waiting for Stassney's arrival in docking to help identify the lone Pelican's crew. To their surprise, Felix is the only one who reveals himself and although at first being though suspicious by Stassney, is taken to the bridge and quickly gains their trust. Blanton however, is not seen on the bridge with the rest of the crew and is instead left to guard the pelican. Shortly after, he is assassinated by Locus after Mayers triggers the alarm.
