Karina Burgundy (Earth-5875)

Karina Burgundy, nicknamed Stickybeak, was a D77-TC Pelican pilot of the UNSC Marine Corps stationed aboard the prowler UNSC Red Horse.

Skirmish on the Mona Lisa
Burgundy took part of a classified mission in locating the debris field of Installation 04 as a part of the UNSC Marine contingent aboard the UNSC Red Horse. During the operation, she performed reconnaissance missions with her D77-TC Pelican. After three days, Commander Tobias Foucault, the captain of the Red Horse, was able to retrieve a signal coming from a shuttle. After the Red Horse retrieved the shuttle, Technical Officer Raj Singh called Stickybeak and Clarence to help him open. Once they opened it, the trio found a man surrounded in his own blood. Disgusted, Burgundy ran away from the deck.

They were only able to discover the shuttle came from the prison ship Mona Lisa, which was drifting in the debris field of the destroyed Installation 04. Sergeant Zhao Heng Lopez led a squad of Marines to investigate the freighter, transported by Burgundy aboard her Pelican. While the other Marines continued deeper into the ship, Lopez had Milo Cranker stay aboard the dropship. Fifteen minutes later, the xenomorphs attacked the Marines outside of the Pelican, leading Burgundy to investigate the firefight, with limited views in the visuals of her Pelican, making her unable to see the enemies.

Less than an hour later, Burgundy saw two figures, and assuming them to be her colleagues, she opened the rear ramp of the Pelican, only to be attacked by two xenomorph Aggressors. Learning of the aliens way too late, she attempted to kill them with her M4 pistol, failing to do any severe damage. The xenomorphs then incapacitated her, carrying her to the engine room of the Mona Lisa, where they had built a hive, harvesting her there as a part of the Proto-Keymind they were building.

Death
Her screams of agony were later heard by Ngoc Benti, Clarence, Henry and Patrick Rimmer. To end huer suffering and prevent the xenomorphs from absorbing her knowledge and using it to spread further, Benti tossed two grenades at the xenomorphs, killing them all, including Burgundy.
