Elites Formal Name: Sangheili. The Elites are a proud warrior race, subservient only to the Prophets they traditionally protect with formidable Energy Sword-wielding Honor Guards. As masters of combat, they can use a wide variety of weapons. Even the most lowly, subordinate Elite can be a mighty adversary. ------------------------------------------ Blue-- Elite Minor Maroon-- Elite Major Jetpack-- Ranger Black-- Spec.

Grunts Fromal name: Unggoy. Grunts are the lowliest beings on the Covenant hierarchy. Relying on a giant rebreather packs to provide them with a methane atmosphere, these creatures are prone to frequent lapses in vigilance when not strictly policed by a nearby Elite commander. ------------------------------------------ Yellow- Grunt Minor Red-- Grunt Major Green-- Gunner Black-- Spec.

Jackals Formal Name: Kig-Yar. Jackals, like Grunts, are members of the Covenant worker-class. The differing abilities of both species means that they compliment each other well during battles, and will often be found together. The speed, equipment, and comparatively greater ferocity of the Jackals make them more dangerous foes than Grunts. ------------------------------------------- Green Shield-- Minor Jackal Orange Shield-- Major Jackal No Shield-- Sniper	0	0	-- In: ---- By:
Drones Formal Name: Yanme'e. These sentient insects re about te size of a Grunt and have little apparent intelligence or personality, but they do have hard shells and the ability to fly. Drones are swift airborne marksmen, and their agility makes tham difficult to hit. ----------------------------------------- ~ No apparent ranks ~	0	0	-- In: ---- By:
Hunters Formal Name: Lekgolo. Hunters are heavily-armed collectives of worm-like organisms united under a common consciousness. They always attack in twos. New intelligence suggests these creatures pair off early and form lifelong partnerships. This explains why a Hunter becoms so enraged when its mate is slain-- it will roar, charge towards the enemy responsible, attack inanimate objects, and may even vent its frustrations on the lower orders of its Covenant allies. These living tanks are deployed as shock troops, their speed and incredible strength scattering opposing forces like ninepins. ------------------------------------------ ~ No apparent ranks ~	0	0	-- In: ---- By:
Brutes Formal Name: Jiralhanae. Up until this point, humanity had no contact with these fur-covered giants. It transpires that a long-standing rivalry between Elites and Brutes has only been suppressed with great difficulty. Recent events have caused a power shift in the Covenant, with the Brutes now accorded with the key role in the fight against humanity-- and by the degree of the Prophets, no less. ------------------------------------------ Blue Plating-- Brute Minor Silver Plating-- Brute Major Red Flag-- Brute Captain Special Red/Yellow Armor-- Honor Guard	0	0	-- In: ---- By:
