Talk:Ascendant Justice

Guardian of the Luminous Key
What is this Guardian of the Luminous Key stuff? -- Esemono 01:20, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
 * It also apparently had someone named the Holder of the Luminous Key, although who this might be is unknown as he most likely died either in the Master Chief's original assault, or when the ship was destroyed.
 * On pages 155 and 156 of Halo: First Strike, Cortana translates some messages from the Covenant fleet around Reach that says that someone called the Guardian of the Luminous Key should be aboard the Ascendant Justice. Some theorize this to be the Elite John-117 fights on the bridge, others theorize this to be the Supreme Commander (future Arbiter)(who may or may not be the Elite who John-117 fights on the bridge), and some think this is 343 Guilty Spark (for reasons unknown to me).

Energy Projectors?
The only weapons it carried were the Cortana-enhanced plasma cannons. It didn't have energy projectors, odd for a ship that size.

We Don't know that for sure
Actually we don't even know that for sure. Fred, in Halo First Strike said that only the big ships have the energy projectors most likely including ascendant justice as the ships itself was also quite massive as described by the master chief. For all we know ascendant justice could have even pulse lasers as it is standard on all covenant ships.--Halo3

Class: Assault Carrier
We've been over this before. An Assault Carrier is somewhere over 5 kilometers long. The Ascendant Justice is around 3 kilometers. If nothing else, the Ascendant Justice is more likely a Reverence-class Cruiser like the Incorruptible.

I have also guessed that before.As I said before that covenant cruisers also have three bulboues sections as said in Halo First Strike book novel.Look into the part where the astroid colony first comes into contact with the covenant. Somewhere it states that the cruiser has three bulbous sections. The fact that covenant cruisers,most likely including the REVERENCE CLASS CRUISER Incorruptible,have three bulbous sections plus your theory that REVERENCE CLASS CRUISERS are 3,000 kilometers long would indeed prove the fact that Ascendant Justicee was a Reverence Class CRUISER.As read in Halo Ghost of Onyx, just like in Halo First Strike the Ascendant Justice and Incorruptible both controlled a small grup of warships. Both have seven plasma turrets. The only problem and question is this, "Why would the high ranking former supreme commander/imperial admiral such as the Arbiter be controlling a mere reverence class cruiser. Like you stated any ship can be a flagship but keep in mind that the covenant are almost totally diferent in there ranking structure for elites adding to that there space navy or armada. Perhaps the Arbiter simply used sacred promise as a flagship for large and heavy jobs and the ascendant justice as a secondary flagship simply for smaller jobs. Perhaps sacred promise, as most people predicted, was destroyed. That would also explain why the prophets were even harsher, because he had also lost seeker of truth.

If Ascendant Justice is really a Reverence-class cruiser, then it should have energy projectors like Incorruptible. Also, it states that the Ascendant Justice was "armed like a ship of war", further reinforcing the fact that it should have had more than just plasma turrets.
