Deacon is a Covenant title. As the name suggests, a Deacon is used for religious reasons rather than combat. A Deacon is sent to help reinforce the spirituality of ships in which not much is present. They are taught in the religion of the Covenant and work to increase faith in others. Deacons are also learned in the "Sacred Glyphs" that the Forerunners use in their machines. Deacons command more respect than the rank and file Grunts, but are still held in low esteem. They look like Grunt Ultras but have an orange tunic. A Kig-Yar shipmistress, named Chur'R-Yar, was tempted to lose a Deacon named Dadab "out of an airlock", if not for his ability to communicate with the Huragok Lighter than Some.
