Pious Inquisitor

The Pious Inquisitor was a Covenant CCS-Class Battlecruiser reputed to be one of the fastest ships in the Covenant Navy.

Description
The Pious Inquisitor saw action at the Battle of Earth. The Inquisitor remained intact through the Battle of Earth, and when informed of the Great Schism, it joined forces with the Covenant Separatists and returned to High Charity to join the Fleet of Retribution in preventing the Flood from spreading. Now part of the Fleet, it joined pursuit of a Flood-controlled ship to Earth, after which it entered the Portal and took part in the Battle of Installation 00. Its current status is unknown.

Though it is unknown where the location of the map is, it is a commonly thought to be either in the observation deck or the engine room. It is more likely the former, for the layout of the room is nothing at all what an engine room should look like, in addition to the fact it is at the top of the ship. It is described as luxurious for a Covenant warship, so the hovering platform in the center of the room may be the control platform.

Trivia

 * According to bonus features in the Halo 2 Collectors Edition, Begotten Angel was the original name of the vessel featured in Midship.
 * This ship is also the location of the Halo 3 multiplayer map, Heretic, which is a remake of Halo 2 multiplayer map Midship.
 * Near the top of the map there is a window where you can look out which shows that the Pious Inquisitor is a part of a fleet traveling through space, it is unknown which fleet it is (although it's probably the Fleet of Retribution) or where the fleet is heading.
