Her voice lines give her the impression of being a non-native Hawaii resident who greets and blurts out phrases in the Hawaiian language and has immersed herself somewhat in the culture of the Hawaiian archipelago.
The historical USS Honolulu served in the attack on Pearl Harbor, Battle of Tassafaronga, the Battle of Kula Gulf, the Battle of Kolombangara and the Battle of Peleliu. She was taken out of action by serious torpedo damage just before the Battle of Leyte Gulf. She was repaired, but not in time to rejoin the war. She was decommissioned in 1947 and was held in reserve until she was scrapped in 1959, by which time, her namesake city had become the capital of the 50th state to join the Union.
