Colonel Swagger is a minor antagonist in Elites of War: Chronicles in the Original Timeline, serving as the main antagonist of the episode "First Cohort".
He is a traitorous colonel who commanded 12 frigates but instead transported goods before retreating to the mountains with the rest of the Sephoran Command to leave his men and civilization to die by the Black Raiders on the world of Sephora.
He was voiced by Brandan Coe who also voices Jan in Chronicles.
Appearance[]
Like the rest of the Sephorans, he wears Spartan armor except his armor is HAZOP-class. The color schemes on his HAZOP armor are brown and white.
Personality[]
For a member of the Sephoran Command, he is rather greedy, authority abusive and very manipulative when it comes to try to hide his crimes from being exposed. Another example is how he is being more manipulative and cowardly while unconvincing when he tried to avoid being executed by Recko for his and the other Sephoran Command's actions of leaving their people, their city and homes to get destroyed. He is also very xenophobic towards the Sangheili when he tried to tell Recko that they are only using him which makes him a hypocrite before earning his punishment by death.
Biography[]
Not much is known about Swagger except he is a Colonel and a member of the Sephoran Command who rule the Sephoran Guards appointed by the UNSC. During their war against the Black Raiders, he had 12 frigates that are ready to strike. Instead of aid, however, he instead decides to transport enough goods of gold, platinum and arts for his greed and retreated with the rest of the Sephoran Command to the mountains while concealing their cowardly retreat to have it hidden from anyone else from finding out.
As a result, the Black Raiders gain a foothold on the city and homeland, destroying it and killing many civilians and soldiers alike residing there. While helding his ground, Recko try to gain contact to command hoping if reinforcements are coming, but Swagger and the command's neglecting motive left them stranded and outnumbered by the Black Raiders, leaving Recko the only survivor of the attack. Unfortunately for Swagger, the transmission from earlier of their crimes were intercepted by Gharst and manage to capture him and held prisoner to expose him to any surviving Sephoran forces left in the homeland the Black Raiders invaded and destroyed.
As a captive, he was brought to the land where Gharst and Jan arrived with Recko to meet him. Recko asked him where the reinforcements are but Swagger kept on lying that he was following orders with Recko not believing him. Gharst then tells him about him and the rest of Sephoran command retreating to the mountains while the Sephoran Guards were outnumbered. Recko asked if this was true, only to make the same excuse before lying that he was a pawn not having any other choice. Gharst corrects this lie and exposes his doings of greed to Recko. Trying to get himself out of this, Swagger then tells Recko not to trust them in a xenophobic manner claiming he would use him while Gharst gave Recko a choice to spare him to get off scot-free or end him for his crimes. Recko at first is hesitant but is told that Swagger made his choice of neglecting his men and to punish him. In one last attempt, he made one more lie to try to convince him that he is a pawn to not trust the Sangheili in the Legion and asked him if it's not obvious. In a response, Recko tells him that his eyes are opened and executes Swagger while shooting at his corpse.
After Swagger's death, Recko becomes worried that he is a traitor for killing him. Gharst corrects him that he has become who he is now and inspired him enough to join Legion to hunt down the other UNSC who are like Swagger.

Trivia[]
- For a member of the Sephoran Command, he and the rest of them are the reasons for Recko to switch sides with Legion to hunt down each of them for their crimes. In fact, his and the rest of the UNSC's actions would inspire others to switch sides with Legion as many Sangheili would be inspired to switch sides with Legion for the Alliance's actions against them.
- He and Ra'ak are the only villains that Gharst made a valid point about there always a choice to make to correct them when they claimed they had no choice. They chose to do a choice that betrayed both Gharst and Recko and received the choice by the ones they betrayed as punishment for their crimes.
