Gek 'Lhar

Gek is a Sangheili member of the Covenant remnant.

Biography
During the Requiem campaign of early 2558, Gek greeted Jul 'Mdama as he arrived at his location in a Forerunner structure on Requiem, informing him that they were still preparing "the shrine". Jul then brought Dr. Henry Glassman, who had offered his knowledge in exchange for his life. Gek was later tasked to watch over Dr. Glassman as he tried to work on their Forerunner "shrine". When Jul came to check on his progress, Glassman got frustrated and started to walk toward Jul, Gek quickly pulled his tether to get him to stop. Joining 'Mdama on watching the assault on Galileo Base by their Covenant faction, Gek was informed that 'Mdama was only trying to create a show of attempting to recover the Didact's Gift, making it seem important to the humans. .

Back at their base of operations somewhere in the tunnel complex located in Sniper Alley, Glassman managed to activate something in the shrine, prompting all the present Sangheili (save Jul) to bow before the artifact. With his captors distracted, Glassman escaped from the antechamber. After the artifact's energy sphere rejected Jul, the Sangheili Commander directed his fury at a now-gone Glassman; half-dozen Sangheili went to pursue the scientist in the tunnels but Jul held Gek back. Stating that Glassman's was unacceptable, Gek reassured Jul that he would deal with the matter personally, leaving Jul and his two guards alone with the artifact. Gek soon finds Glassman's discarded collar and activates a remote detonator for Glassman's explosive harness; but Spartan Gabriel Thorne managed to pull off the harness in time and toss it toward the Sangheili pursuing Glassman, killing the lot of them. Gek finds the carnage and finds a apparently familiar body, who he identifies as his brother; Gek finds a trail of footprints leading further out of the canyon and spots Glassman's damaged glasses.

Appearance and personality
Gek harbors a deep-seated hatred for humanity, and Spartans in particular. Sometime prior to the Requiem campaign, Gek suffered a wound which blinded his left eye and left a large scar across his face. Eleven UNSC dog tags are attached to the left side of Gek's harness, likely taken from soldiers he's personally killed. He often forgoes wearing a helmet.
