Ernicka the Scar-Maker: Difference between revisions

Ernicka served as the second-in-command to [[Sangheili Field Commander|Field Commander]] [[Ussa 'Xellus]] during the [[San'Shyuum-Sangheili War]]. In [[860 BCE]], during the [[Skirmish of the Planet of Blue and Red|skirmish]] at [[Anvarl]], he helped lead troops against the [[San'Shyuum]] [[Reformist]] forces. When the San'Shyuum were forced to retreat to the planet's orbit, Ernicka fired at the escaping [[Covenant drop pod|shuttle pods]] in a failed attempt to destroy them. Ernicka did not believe the San'Shyuum would attack from their ships in orbit, since the San'Shyuum were not willing to risk causing damage to the planet's [[Forerunner]] structures. However, Ussa realized that the San'Shyuum were intending to use a weapon from their Forerunner Dreadnought that was too weak to damage the structures and kill all exposed Sangheili. Ussa desperately had Ernicka order all Sangheili to retreat into the interiors of the structures to survive the orbital attacks.{{Ref/Reuse|bc13}}
