Gray Guards

The so-called "Gray Guards" are an organisation of Jiralhanae warriors in the Banished. Their nickname was given by Blue Team for their distinctive drab grey-coloured power armour.

History
During the 2559 battle on Reach, three hundred Gray Guards were deployed by Escharum from his personal intrusion corvette. When observed by John-117, they were noted for their unusual discipline - standing guard around the corvette for an hour without moving. Later on, the Gray Guards rearmed and engaged United Nations Space Command forces on Reach, with a number ultimately deploying into the mineshaft of CASTLE Base - where they were promptly dispatched by Blue Team.

Equipment
The Gray Guards are most notable for their distinctive drab grey armour, which gave rise to their nickname as-given by Blue Team. When initially deployed onto Reach, the Gray Guards wielded shock rifles and short-handled gravity maces. However, once engaged by UNSC forces, they rearmed and proceeded to fully enter battle with shock, spike, and plasma rifles alongside jump packs and ravagers.
