Sav Fel

Sav Fel is a Kig-Yar T'vaoan pirate operating in the aftermath of the Human-Covenant War.

Biography
Sav Fel served in the Covenant during the Human-Covenant War. During the war, he witnessed numerous human colonies being glassed by the Covenant. He had seen several Forerunner artifacts and ruins during his service. After the war, Fel became a pirate who came to the attention of Kilo-Five during their time at Sanghelios due to his apparent possession of the Pious Inquisitor. Fel had been entrusted by the Servants of the Abiding Truth to transport the ship to one of their shipyards. When the Sangheili civil war erupted, he decided to take the ship, planning to sell it later.

In April 2553, he was observed by Naomi-010 and Vasily Beloi in New Tyne, Venezia in the same vehicle as the insurrectionist Staffan Sentzke. Sentzke later visited Fel at his home, located just five kilometers outside New Tyne. There they discussed the transaction of Pious Inquisitor. As payment, Fel demanded particle beam rifles, dropships, and plasma pistols. Sentzke stated that he would first need to see the ship and test its ventral beam. Fel informed him that the ship was in another system and that he planned to show him something extra when he saw the ship.

A week later, Fel called Sentzke and told him that he was ready to take him to the ship. The next day, he met with Staffan and his son Edvin on Weymouth Island. They left Venezia in Fel's missionary vessel and boarded the Pious Inquisitor. Fel introduced them to the onboard Huragok, Sometimes Sinks, and offered him as an AI replacement. They traveled to the Shaps system where Fel planned to demonstrate the ship's destructive power by glassing a barren planet. While en-route to the planet, Sav-Fel and his lieutenants, Eith Mor and Dhak, began arguing about getting the deal closed, getting paid and then lying low. Arriving on Shaps III, Sometimes Sinks told Sav Fel that he couldn't use the ship's energy projectors since there were Forerunner artifacts on the surface of the planet. Fel decided to put the Huragok in the brig while they tested the energy projectors, although he was worried that the Huragok might reconfigure the locks. As Fel prepared to test the beam, Edvin asked him about the Covenant's ritual cleansing ceremony, but Fel informed him that he was never present for such things. Fel and his crew then activated the ventral beam and glassed a Forerunner site on the planet. Sometimes Sinks accessed the ship's broadcast system and began wailing, upset that they were destroying Forerunner artifacts. Sav Fel sent Dhak to go quiet Sinks. After seeing the planet's molten surface, Staffan asked to try out the cleansing beam for himself, to which Fel approved. After glassing a portion of the planet, Sentzke finished the ship's transaction with Fel and kept Sinks in exchange for one Darter ship. With the deal completed, Sav Fel's crew parted separate ways and Fel returned to his home in Venezia, pleased to have finally sold the ship.

Personality and traits
Fel generally remained emotionless and stoic when dealing with customers. Sav Fel had little care for Forerunner objects, unless they were useful. He considered the Forerunners false gods. He remained unmoved when he was glassing the ruins on Shaps III's surface, despite Sometimes Sinks objections.

Trivia
Sav Fel is the first T'vaoan to be identified by name in the Halo Universe.
