'''Loro 'Onkiyo''' was a [[Sangheili]] warrior who served in the [[Covenant]] [[Covenant military|military]] as a [[Sangheili Field Commander|Field Commander]], as well as a Commissioner for the [[Sangheili treaty commission]] during the dawn of the Covenant.<ref>''Halo: Broken Circle'', p. 21 (Google Play edition)</ref>

==Biography==
Following the end of the [[War of Beginnings]] and the ratification of the [[Writ of Union]], the [[Sangheili]] realized that they lacked diplomats to negotiate with the [[San'Shyuum]]. Loro 'Onkiyo was selected to become a diplomat and assigned to the [[Covenant]]'s [[Sangheili treaty commission]]. Loro ensured that many of the soldiers in the [[Covenant military]] were truly committed to protecting [[Forerunner]] artifacts and devoted to the [[Great Journey]].{{Ref/Reuse|bc21}}

In [[851 BCE]], the [[Mken 'Scre'ah'ben|Prophet of Inner Conviction]], the [[Qurlom|Minister of Relative Reconciliation]], and the [[GuJo'n|Minister of Kindly Subjection]] met to discuss [[Ussa 'Xellus]]' rebellion on [[Sanghelios]]. Loro 'Onkiyo and fellow Commissioner [[Viyo 'Griot]] had just arrived at [[High Charity]] and were called to the [[Chamber of Decision]] by the [[Minister (title)|minister]]s.<ref>''Halo: Broken Circle'', p. 20 (Google Play edition)</ref> The two Commissioners eventually arrived in the chamber, along with two [[Sangheili Honor Guardsmen]]. After Loro reassured the Ministers that the Sangheili troops were truly devoted to the Great Journey, the ministers asked the Commissioners on Ussa's insurrection. Viyo assured them that the Commission's spies would soon track down Ussa and assassinate him, with his "cult" dissolving without his leadership. However, the Prophet of Inner Conviction believed that Ussa would serve only as a pariah.{{Ref/Reuse|bc21}}

==Personality and traits==
Loro 'Onkiyo was considered to be one of the few diplomatic types among the [[Sangheili]]. Regardless, he was uneasy and uncomfortable in his diplomatic position within the [[Sangheili treaty commission]]. He was devoted to the [[Covenant religion]], and [[Mken 'Scre'ah'ben]] noted that he spoke with the genuine enthusiasm of a recent convert. He stated that the Sangheili had always worshipped the [[Forerunner]]s, but he noted that only his species' alliance with the [[San'Shyuum]] showed them the true Path to the Great Journey. Loro claimed to be willing to die for the Great Journey.{{Ref/Reuse|bc21}}

Loro donned a silver-colored [[Combat harness|Sangheili combat harness]] and helmet. He was slightly shorter than [[Viyo 'Griot]].{{Ref/Reuse|bc21}}
