Heretic Sangheili Major

Heretic Elite Majors are denoted by their golden armor so it may be possible that they  were once a zelot. They serve as commanders to the Heretic Minors and the Heretic Grunts. They also guard places as designated by the Heretic leader, Sesa 'Refumee. It's very likely that the Majors remained inside of the facility they used as a base, patrolling the long and dark hallways of the Threshold Gas Mine on foot, while numerous Minors patrolled the outside by way of Banshee, making the mine almost solid in defense. However, the Prophets sent in squads of Special Operations Elites and Grunts, accompanied by the Arbiter, to quell the heresy and the group infiltrated the mine and completed their objective. It can be assumed that all of the Heretic Majors were killed either by the infiltration group, by the Flood they released into the facility, or when the cables holding the station were cut by the Arbiter, sending the structure into the depths of Threshold.

The Heretics were only experienced in two levels; The Arbiter and The Oracle. They were most often seen with Sentinel Beams and Carbines.
