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. In Halo 2, the multiplayer level Midship is located in an unspecified section of this vessel. 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 Bridge or the Engine room. It is more likely the former, for the layout of the room is similar to the Truth and Reconciliation ' s bridge. It is described as typically luxurious for a Covenant warship, so the hovering platform in the center of the room may be the control platform.
