Voro Nar 'Mantakree

Background
Voro 'Mantakree was a Covenant Elite.

During the 9th Age of Reclamation, 'Mantakree was a Major Elite and assigned to the Reverence-class cruiser Incorruptible. Once the Prophet of Truth left High Charity in his forerunner ship, the Second Fleet of Homogenous Clarity was thrown into chaos. As The Battle of Installation 05 raged on, the Civil War of the Covenant began. Brute and Elite controlled ships engaged each other at random, while trying to prevent the Flood from escaping the installation.

The Incorruptible's commander, Ship Master Tano 'Inanraree, who was a member of the Governors of Contrition, ordered the ship to be infected by the Flood. The Governors of Contrition believed all Forerunner creations were sacrosanct, even the parasitic Flood infestation of Halo. 'Mantakree was forced to kill his former mentor and friend with a Needler to end his madness. This action was heresy and normally Voro would have been killed by the Hunter bonded pair of Paruto Xida Konna and Waruna Xida Yotno who were responsible for the safety of the ship master or failing that, kill the attacker; however, the rest of the crew agreed that Tano's judgement had been clouded by the Prophets. With support from the rest of the crew, 'Mantakree was made Ship Master of the Reverance-class cruiser Incorruptible. Y'gar, the eldest bridge officer said, "Tano was devout to the end. But his reasoning in light of recent events, was not sound. This was regrettable, but necessary...Ship Master." Voro ordered the grunts to remove Tano's body from the bridge but said leave Tano's blood remaining where it was as a reminder of the price he had paid for their survival.

While all of this was going on, the Incorruptible had been targeted by two Brute frigates, the Tenebrous and the Twilight Compunction. Both of the ships launched salvos of plasma and disabled the Incorruptible's shields. Voro took evasive action and hid behind the Covenant Carrier Lawgiver, who's shields were full. When the ship emerged from behind the Lawgiver, Voro targeted the Tenebrous first, using plasma to disable the ship's shields and then finished it off with the Energy Projector. The ship Twilight Compunction retreated for the moment--as they should when presented with superior firepower..even if that power was an illusion. He stayed in system for a short while to try to eliminate all remaining Flood Controled Ships. He was able to create a short truce between the Sangheili and Jiralehanae while they eliminated Flood controlled ships and 4 ships that were being infected. Then the Brutes started targeting Sangheili ships,even though the Flood was not eliminated. Shortly after they jumped system because "to stay here and fight is madness".

Joyous Exultation
He took the Incorruptible to the fringe world of Joyous Exultation, fending off repeated attacks from Gargantum the Brute. 'Mantakree and his ship intercepted the transmission indicating that the Bloodied Spirit was under the control of the Spartan-IIs, Blue Team. When he met with Imperial Admiral Xytan 'Jar Wattinree he was 1 of 32 representatives from 200 vessels of various classes in the system, the Imperial Admiral later put 'Mantakree in charge of a task force of ships to go to Onyx to catch the Bloodied Spirit and to gain valuable Forerunner artifacts. At this point, he appeared to receive an addition to his name, Nar. After exiting system he sent Far Sight Lost and its Ship Master, Ship Master 'Qunu, to make contact with the Forerunner Sentinels. After the ship was destroyed he ordered all Sentinels coming towards his Task Force be destroyed. Soon after he ordered the Absolution to make a slipspace jump to the northern pole of Onyx. As the ship was about to enter slipspace a wave of Sentinels appeared, fired on and destroyed Absolution. He then ordered no ships to enter slipspace without his permission. Voro soon scanned the northern pole to find a clue as to how the Sentinels had jumped. When he discovered the Core Room Antechamber he ordered all ships to OVERARCH attack pattern and prepare for orbital descent.

Battle on Onyx
Soon after Voro 'Mantakree, along with his Hunter pair Paruto Xida Konna and Waruna Xida Yotno, led the attack on the ground, pursuing the Spartan-IIs and Spartan-IIIs with the help of the N'Noro Warrior Crèche,E'Toro Warrior Crèche and R'Lan Warrior Crèche all the way to the Core Room Antechamber. For more protection he ordered his troops to carry Jackal Gauntlet Shields. His troops believed this was a great dishonour. While he believed they must wear them so they wouldn't lose that world like they lost the first Halo. After a wave of troops were sent in front of him he led the attack from the second wave. When he reached the Core Room Antechamber he found Spartan-051 mortally wounded. He was about to kill Spartan-051 when he was killed by the FENRIS Nuclear Warheads the Spartan had triggered.
