'''Silset 'Chava''' is a [[Sangheili]] weaponsmith, formerly serving the [[Covenant]] and now the [[Swords of Sanghelios]] alongside his brother, [[Oebrin 'Chava]] and sister, [[Mahkee 'Chava]].{{Ref/Reuse|CFAmore}}{{Ref/Novel|Id=Blood-Moon|Battle for the Blood-Moon}}

==Biography==
Growing up, Silset 'Chava and his brother [[Oebrin 'Chava]] served as weaponsmiths for the [[Sangheili]] of the [[Covenant]]. The two optimized Covenant weapons for Sangheili use either on the battlefield or on hunting preserves, sometimes drawing the ire of any [[San'Shyuum]] that learned of the brothers' unsanctioned modifications, secretly giving both Sangheili suppressed satisfaction. At some point, Silset accepted a position at the Covenant [[Ministry of Preparation]]'s [[Sacred Promissory]], where he put his extensive knowledge and experience with Subanese [[blamite]] to use.{{Ref/Reuse|CFAmore}}

When the [[Great Schism]] began, both Silset and Oebrin 'Chava found themselves united under [[Thel 'Vadam]]'s [[Swords of Sanghelios]], having always wanted for the Sangheili to break free of the Covenant. As weaponsmiths of the Swords of Sanghelios, both brothers intended to use their mastery of weaponsmithing to new, more honorable ends. Together, the two modified a {{Pattern|Mosa|carbine}} to take on the "role and the soul" of Suban and adapted key attributes of the {{Pattern|Gadulo|needle rifle}}, the favored weapon of Silset. The result was the "[[Blood of Suban]]", a carbine that fired Subanese blamite.{{Ref/Reuse|CFAmore}}

On [[2560#January|January 4, 2560]], Silset and his brother conducted an expedition to the moon of [[Qikost]], escorted by [[Abalan]], a [[SPARTAN-IV program|SPARTAN-IV]] of the [[United Nations Space Command]]. Abalan was part of [[Fireteam Jorogumo]], a Spartan unit tasked with joint-operations on Sanghelios alongside Swords military units. For three months the trio explored cave systems on Qikost before coming across an old San'Shyuum vault buried underground, locked with an [[arum]]. The 'Chava brothers spent nearly twenty minutes arguing amongst themselves about how to solve the arum puzzle in order to open the vault, with Silset ultimately proving correct and "allowing" his brother the honour of opening the trove if he admitted he was incorrect. Ultimately, the two only took four of the [[Vestige Carbine]]s found inside the vault; one for historical archiving, two for experimentation and reverse-engineering, and one to give as a gift to Abalan.{{Ref/Site|Id=CF164|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/canon-fodder-falcon-fiction-flight|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Falcon Fiction Flight|D=06|M=08|Y=2025|LocalArchive=Armory Infinitum#Vestige Carbine}}

==Personality and traits==
Of the two 'Chava brothers, Silset is excitable and generally more reckless as compared to Oebrin; the latter of whom was regarded by Spartan Abalan as the "more sensible" of the two.{{Ref/Reuse|CF164}}
