In his hands, 'Sebarim carried [[Arcane Sentinel Beam|a sentinel beam]] that had been found during one of his excursions to [[Installation 07|the ring]]’s substructures—the vast, metal underworld that lay below the natural edifice of the ring’s verdant surface. This [[Directed-energy weapon|directed energy weapon]] was much like [[Sentinel beam|the ones]] integrated into [[Aggressor Sentinel|standard sentinel units]], but the enforcer had been awed by the effectiveness of its use—how it so quickly disintegrated its targets, as if they had been totally cleansed from existence. “What is the problem?” ‘Sebarim asked. The enforcer straightened, decades of discipline from [[Covenant military]] service had long ago become second nature to him, though he allowed his eyes to wander to the group of half-a-dozen [[human]] captives held by 'Sebarim's [[Jiralhanae]] entourage. “The [[Unidentified Banished human inspector|Inspector]] informs me that the [[Redoubt of Sundering]] is full,” he spoke. “There is no more room for the spoils of today’s hunt.” “Ah,” ‘Sebarim gestured to the enforcer to come closer. “We have been gluttonously spoiled with [[Prisoner of war|prisoners]] since [[Tremonius]] [[Battle of the Mortal Reverie|claimed their ruined frigate]].” The enforcer dipped his head in agreement. The attack on the [[UNSC Mortal Reverie]] had scattered the survivors to the winds, but the checkpoints and fortifications set up by the Banished had effectively transformed this area of the ring into the perfect hunting ground. Humans were tenacious when faced with limited options. Some simply chose to hide and had to be flushed out from their cowardly retreat, others attempted to form larger groups to [[Rubicon Protocol|conduct attacks on various targets of value]]. The only other option that remained for them was to leap into the abyss at the sundered edge of the ring. “What do you intend to do?” asked the enforcer. “Release them, of course,” ‘Sebarim said, and the Bloodstar warrior’s grip on his weapon tightened. |- |<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">'''Citation:'''<div class="mw-collapsible-content"><code><nowiki>{{Ref/Site|Id=CF144|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/canon-fodder-vis-a-vale|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Vis-à-Vale|D=3|M=10|Y=2023|LocalArchive=Armory Infinitum#Arcane Sentinel Beam}}</nowiki></code></div></div> |} === Backdraft Cindershot === {| class="wikitable" style="width:55%" |- | [[File:HINF CF141 BackdraftCindershot.jpg|900px]] '''''[[Ur-Didact|D]]''': [[Ferrarius Assembler Vats|Ferrarius [legatio]]] grow ever more eager in their designs as the [[Ecumene Council|ecumene council]]’s formal declaration of [[Human-Forerunner wars|war]] with the [[Ancient humanity|humans]] becomes increasingly inevitable.

As [[Installation 07|Zeta Halo]] slowly rotated and the nearest star began to dip below the far containment wall that made up the ring band's edge, what passed for dusk began to settle across the fractured landscape. Amidst a backdrop of charred bark and broken limbs, the subtle shift of black armor was the only evidence of [[Jega 'Rdomnai]]'s presence. The cybernetically enhanced Sangheili warrior waited patiently in the shadows, anticipating the arrival of a group of UNSC Marines designated [[Boulder Squad]]. 'Rdomnai had observed and catalogued the group's patterns and patrol routes for several cycles, and the time drew near for him to make his move. 'Rdomnai gave a quick but choreographed sweep over his weaponry to make sure all was in peak operating order. In the relative stillness of the moment, he allowed his focus to deviate just slightly towards wistful recollection. His left cybernetic arm housed the reforged remnants of his old personal energy sword—an intimidating, custom-shaped, twin-blade monstrosity named ''[[Ghostpierce]]''. In his right hand, he slowly turned over the hilt of his most recent weapon of choice, a more traditional Sangheili [[bloodblade]] that itself had already claimed more victims than he could count. The crimson-hued energy sword remained nameless, but 'Rdomnai subconsciously vowed to bestow upon it a new monicker when their job was finally done on this ring. Something befitting of such a monumental victory. Something befitting the death of a demon. Nearly an hour passed before the first sounds of the encroaching Marines could be heard. Soon, Boulder Squad was in sight. As the squad crept closer, every step became a silent countdown to mark each human soldier's end. Low voices turned from casual communication to concern and confusion as multiple red energy blades ignited just inside the tree line, the forest suddenly a charcoal painting come to life, giving birth to a monster made of metal and mandibles. The screams lasted longer than the frantic gunfire, a still silence welcoming Boulder into its eternal embrace. A moment later, the red glow of the blades disappeared, and Jega 'Rdomnai became shadow once more. |- |<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">'''Citation:'''<div class="mw-collapsible-content"><code><nowiki>{{Ref/Site|Id=CF157|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/canon-fodder-decennial-delights|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Decennial Delights|D=17|M=9|Y=2024|LocalArchive=Armory Infinitum#Bloodblade}}</nowiki></code></div></div> |} === Calcine Disruptor === {| class="wikitable" style="width:55%" |- | [[File:HINF CF161 Bipbap.jpg|900px]] '''[RECORDED EXCERPT OF [[Bloodstars|BLOODSTAR]] [[Bipbap|BIPBAP]] IN CONVERSATION WITH WARLORD [[Chak 'Lok|CHAK 'LOK]]]''' You see, the great thing about [[Unggoy]] is that we add biiiig numbers to an army!

It is a word for the weak. What hope was there for the [[Jiralhanae]] during the [[Great Immolation]]? When we warred among ourselves over territory spoiled by nuclear fire? When the [[Covenant]] came to throw unnumbered legions of our kind against their enemies? When [[Doisac|our home]] [[Razing of Oth Sonin|was razed from existence]]? [[Humanity]] clings to it. They speak of hope as if it were an intangible force that encompasses all things—sustenance, resolve, power. But hope does not feed growling stomachs, nor conquer foes, nor rebuild worlds. Strength is what achieves these things. Knowledge, industry, weaponry. Many call the Jiralhanae savages, but these are what we once had, when we achieved stellar travel all our own. What future might have awaited us had there been no Immolation? Would we have been strong? Do not dwell upon such questions, lest you tempt hope into your heart. As the fight against the humans continues, I shall lead the [[Banished]] with my axe and walk the path of strength. Together, our might shall bludgeon such sentimental notions of “hope” from our foes, and in the end, as they look to the stars and pray for deliverance, they shall know our suffering. "Hope" shall be nothing more than an epitaph carved into a mass grave of the unworthy. |- |<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">'''Citation:'''<div class="mw-collapsible-content"><code><nowiki>{{Ref/Site|Id=CF160|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/canon-fodder-o-come-all-ye-fiction|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - O Come All Ye Fiction|D=19|M=12|Y=2024|LocalArchive=Armory Infinitum#Diminisher of Hope}}</nowiki></code></div></div> |} === Duelist Energy Sword === {| class="wikitable" style="width:55%" |- | [[File:HINF CF136 OkroSword 2.jpg|900px]] “I know why you have come.” [[Okro 'Vagaduun|Okro ‘Vagaduun]]’s grip tightened on the hilt of his [[Energy sword (fiction)|blade]] as he and his opponent circled each other. He had no desire to kill his old master, for [[Toha 'Sumai|Toha ‘Sumai]] was one of the most respected swordsmen and duelists of [[Sanghelios]], but he understood what [[Atriox]] sought to teach him. To join the Banished was to sever one’s ties to the past. To reject honor, the very core of a Sangheili’s being, for payment would come in sport and spoils—not sentiment. To join the Banished was to have loyalty to none but Atriox. It was for this reason alone that Toha ‘Sumai must die. Okro ‘Vagaduun wished to say that he regretted what must be done—that he held fondness for his aged mentor, and that he would take up [[Duelist Energy Sword|the enhanced energy sword]] that was to be his bounty and do great things...

The transport erupted into flames and was sent careening over the cliff’s edge, leaving any of its crew that hadn’t been immolated by the blast to suffer a fall of several hundred meters. [[Marley]] dumped the spent tubes on the ground and reloaded [[Fuel Rod SPNKr|the weapon]], leaning out of cover to check for any other signs of hostiles. ''“Think that was just a scouting run,”'' [[CC]] spoke over the comm. ''“How’s the new toy?”'' “Packs a punch, no problem there,” Marley said. “But the [[Gespu-pattern fuel rod gun|''Gespu''-pattern model]] is all over [[Venezia]] markets, gotta get my hands on one of those as well.” ''“Prefer the [[Zasqi-pattern fuel rod gun|''Zasqi''-pattern]] myself.”'' Marley glanced up, his [[ASSAILER-class armor|Assailer helmet]]’s visor identifying CC’s position several klicks away. She had set up overwatch at the top of one of the monorail towers where she no doubt had a perfect view of [[Unidentified Banished mining facility|the mining facility]] and the arid, mountainous landscape around them. If she hadn’t noted any further movement, it probably had just been a scouting run. “Yeah,” Marley broke from cover and continued patrolling the perimeter of the facility. “Hard to beat the [[Covenant|Covie]] [[Fuel Rod Gun|classics]].” ''“You should put in a requisition order next time. Adds to the debt, but it’ll help you survive long enough to pay it.”'' She wasn’t wrong. A [[Banished]] [[Jiralhanae Chieftain|chieftain]] had enlisted their services to protect this mining site on one of their resource rich worlds, as it was a prime target for rival warlords looking to bolster their own glory and industrial capacity. ''[[Human]] labor hired to protect alien assets from other aliens so they can use it against other humans,'' Marley mused. Sometimes these melting pot arrangements baffled him beyond comprehension—other times, they made a little too much sense. |- |<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">'''Citation:'''<div class="mw-collapsible-content"><code><nowiki>{{Ref/Site|Id=CF162|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/canon-fodder-tasty-tomes|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Tasty Tomes|D=24|M=3|Y=2025|LocalArchive=Armory Infinitum#Fuel Rod SPNKr}}</nowiki></code></div></div> |} === M392 Bandit === {| class="wikitable" style="width:55%" |- | The first voice to speak came from a human armed with confidence, or perhaps brazen foolishness—it was often hard to tell the difference. “It looks like we've got a problem, boys...” He was flanked by three [[Kig-Yar]] [[Kig-Yar Raider|raider]], a mix of Ruuhtian and Ibie’shian [''sic''] clad in telling red-gray colors. “Know how we settle problem on [[Karava]],” one of the Kig-Yar squawked. “You give Banished bad information,” another chimed in. “We give Banished your head.” The human and his Jackal companions grinned in their own ways as they focused on the target of their ire: [[Zef 'Trahl|a Sangheili informant]] who finally had nowhere else to run. But before they could make their next move, the Elite erupted into raucous laughter, using the split-second distraction of the group exchanging slightly puzzled looks to fling himself into cover and unsling the weapon he carried on his back. Three opening shots sounded from an [[M392 Bandit]], each one finding its mark on the heads and necks of the Kig-Yar before a fourth sent the Banished cadre's human leader to the ground clutching his knee. Their saurian target studied the rifle approvingly for a moment before slinging it over his back once more and approaching the grimacing survivor, pressing his hoof onto the wound to keep him both still and uncomfortable. “You will live, human,” he spoke, arranging his mandibles into an unmistakably wide grin. “At least, until you deliver the message to your superiors that Zef ‘Trahl will not be so easily slain.” |- |<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">'''Citation:'''<div class="mw-collapsible-content"><code><nowiki>{{Ref/Site|Id=CF139|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/canon-fodder-echoes-with-dinh|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Echoes With-Dinh|LocalArchive=Armory Infinitum#M392 Bandit}}</nowiki></code></div></div> |} === MA5K Avenger === {| class="wikitable" style="width:55%" |- | [[File:HINF CF159 MA5KAvenger.jpg|900px]] '''''[[UNSC From the Ashes|UNSC FROM THE ASHES]]'', RECORD MATRIX LOGGED BY [[Nyx|NYX 3620-4]]'''<br> '''CONVERSATION BETWEEN [[Amber C.|<nowiki>[87964-33127-AC]</nowiki>]] AND [[SPARTAN-G059]]'''<br> '''NOVEMBER 13, [[2559]]''' AC: “What’s the good word, Spartan?” G059: “Recon op.
