- — Nizat 'Kvarosee[7]
Nizat 'Kvarosee was a Sangheili officer serving the Covenant's fleet as the Master of the Fleet of Inexorable Obedience and the shipmaster of the CAS-class assault carrier Pious Rampage.[3] 'Kvarosee was given command of one of the first campaigns during the Covenant's war against humanity and was responsible for the glassing of at least seven Outer Colonies.[8] After the success of Operation: SILENT STORM and the decimation of his fleet, 'Kvarosee became a rogue leading the Flotilla of Unsung Piety and sought to redeem himself by destroying ONI.[4]
Exiled on Netherop for the next thirty-three years and adopting the title of Worldmaster, Nizat waged a war against UNSC forces led by Lieutenant Commander Amalea Petrov who were similarly stranded on the planet. Nizat and his forces utilized leftover Precursor technology to survive, but things came to a head when the UNSC returned to the planet alongside the Swords of Sanghelios. Nizat's forces were wiped out and the Worldmaster himself was severely wounded and left stranded once again alongside his former steward, Tam 'Lakosee. Facing imminent death from infection, starvation and dehydration, Tam chose to mercy kill the dying Nizat rather than leave his friend to suffer.[6]
Biography[edit]
Early life[edit]
Nizat 'Kvarosee was born on the Kvaros farmlands of Suban's Uka'Pala mesas on August 23, 2470.[1][Note 1] After joining the Covenant, 'Kvarosee saw a meteoric rise through the ranks of its military due to his remarkable proficiency in naval tactics. Shortly before the discovery of humanity and the dawn of the Human-Covenant War, he had assumed control of the Fleet of Inexorable Obedience.[1]
A new war[edit]
At the onset of the Human-Covenant War and the Ninth Age of Reclamation, Nizat 'Kvarosee was serving as the shipmaster of the CAS-class assault carrier Pious Rampage, from which he commanded the Fleet of Inexorable Obedience as its fleetmaster. As he was sent into battle with the humans, he swore to execute the will of the San'Shyuum as if it were his own. The Minor Minister of Artifact Survey was attached to his fleet, serving as a ceremonial magistrate rather than a military commander. The Minor Minister was particularly ill-suited to the rigors of campaigns and glassing operations, and 'Kvarosee found himself taking a dislike to the unimpressive San'Shyuum politician. In this capacity, 'Kvarosee was charged with leading his fleet against the United Nations Space Command across the Outer Colonies.[3]
His orders were to destroy human colonies as quickly as possible, and to survey their worlds and capture those that contained Forerunner relics, while glassing the worlds that did not. Under 'Kvarosee's invasion plan, he had numerous colonies designated as targets, with Amasa being the tenth. A unit of the Silent Shadow led by First Blade Tel 'Szatulai was tasked with scouting out the targeted worlds for any Forerunner artifacts and measure the defenses of each world.[3]
Outer Colony campaigns[edit]
Early in 'Kvarosee's campaigns, Unrelenting and Radiant Arrow were lost through mysterious means while alone over Chi Ceti IV and Netherop, respectively. The loses of these ships led to much speculation among his staff officers. In March 2526, the Fleet of Inexorable Obedience was targeting the underdeveloped and primitive colony of Etalan in the Igdras system. After two uneventful cycles</
