Template:Character Infobox The Jiralhanae Army Commander[1] was a high ranking Jiralhanae Chieftain. Possessing uncanny intelligence that complimented his violent nature, the commander was a dangerous foe despite his relatively small stature.[2][3]

Biography

This army commander served alongside Arbiter Ripa 'Moramee under the Prophet of Regret during the Harvest Campaign, although, as with virtually all Jiralhanae, possess a strong dislike of the Sangheili in general and 'Moramee in particular.[4][5] Compared to other Jiralhanae, the commander was somewhat of smaller stature than normal, but was still a quite capable master tactician. In battle, he wielded a gravity hammer and wore very resilient power armor.

During the campaign on Harvest, he grew to respect humans for their different nature and unfailing courage in the worst of situations, but he passionately disliked Ripa 'Moramee.[1] He enjoys eating thorn beast, which he prefers to be cooked rare, as well as hearing exaggerated tales of his adventures, told by an overweight Unggoy who serves as his official scribe. In 2528, the army commander tore apart two Unggoy because his thorn beast was overcooked. The Unggoy were subsequently discovered as five organic chunks strewn about his quarters.[4]
