Lydus

Lydus is a Jiralhanae Chieftain who sued for peace with the Sangheili during the Reclamation conflict.

History
In March 2558, Lydus was one of the few Jiralhanae willing to discuss a peace treaty with the Arbiter, Thel 'Vadam. The was assigned the mission of defending him and 'Vadam during negotiations. Before an agreement could be reached between both parties, they were attacked by extremists opposed to the treaty. Lydus immediately accused 'Vadam of betraying him, but quickly realized this was not the case. With the aid of his bodyguards and an escort team of Spartans, Lydus was evacuated from the processing center and escorted to a nearby parts depot.

Trivia
In contrast to his subordinates, who are depicted in the likeness of the Brutes in Halo 3, Lydus has the flat-faced, tattooed design from Halo: Reach.
