Enduring Conviction: Difference between revisions

Right after the combination of the assault from the Sentinels and Isabel's meddling caused part of the ship to lose power, a group of [[Jiralhanae]] charged Jerome, who was guarding Isabel's chip. He fought them off as Sentinel after Sentinel careened into the ship until finally, the structure was torn in two along the line of attack. As the carrier lost all structural integrity and began to fall from its position above the Ark, the remaining Sentinels returned to where they came from. Having finally lost power all throughout, not even [[Modular Dispersal Technology]]<ref name="MDT">[http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/intel/theuniverse/tech/gallery/modular-dispersal-technology/e10ac7c3-932c-4b3a-91e5-3bf79c179b68?page=2 ''Halo Waypoint'': ''Modular Dispersal Technology'']</ref> could be relied upon to save part of the ship. No longer being able to rely on the ship's gravity lift, Jerome was forced to leap from the ship after collecting Isabel. The two sections of the ''Enduring Conviction'' crashed into the Ark, but Let 'Volir and a large number of his [[Sangheili]] still managed to survive. The loss of the ''Enduring Conviction'' put 'Volir in a tenuous position wherein he needed to find some way to prove his allegiance to still be worth paying for.{{Ref/Reuse|TF}} In another battle to follow, the UNSC forces and the Banished fought one another surrounded by the hulking wreck of the massive carrier.<ref>''[[Know Your Enemy]]''</ref>{{clear}}

Since being appropriated by the Banished, the ''Enduring Conviction'' was modified to reflect the aesthetic characteristic of the faction. Red lighting was implemented throughout the interior and even the exterior of the ship was made to exude glowing red patterns. The energy put out by its aft ventral beam and gravity life appeared orange but the beams from its pulse laser turrets took on a bright red or blue hue. Before its destruction, the ''Conviction'' was the largest ship controlled by the Banished per the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]]. It was typically crewed by Jiralhanae, Sangheili, and [[Unggoy]], but also transported various gestalts of [[Lekgolo]]. A number of [[Huragok]] were also kept aboard the vessel.{{Ref/Reuse|PL}}
