Overview[edit]
Design details[edit]
The Serpin armor shares design similarities with the Honor Guard.
Development history[edit]
Serpin is manufactured by the Swords of Sanghelios.
Usage[edit]
The Serpin armor is utilized by Spartans who are granted the title of Serpin by the Swords of Sanghelios, meaning "radiant attendant".[1] If the chosen Spartan is selected to be a part of Thel 'Vadam's personal honor guard, they are given the radiant crest attachment, once a symbol of the high-ranking defenders of the Hierarchs of High Charity.[2]
In-game information[edit]
The Serpin armor is available for multiplayer Spartan armor customization in Halo Infinite. Introduced during Infinite as one of two capstone armor sets for the operation, Serpin armor and its associated components available through the pass are visually based on the harness used by the Honor Guard in Halo 2. The Serpin set is primarily available on the Mark VII armor core.
