Noga 'Putumee

Noga 'Putumee was a Covenant Elite Field Master. He wore the Gold armor of a Zealot. Though known for his bravery and leadership in the field, 'Putum was also famous for his blunt, confrontational, and paranoid ways.

As a commander of ground forces in the Fleet of Particular Justice, he was stationed on Installation 04. 'Putumee was ordered to ambush the humans as they drove convoys from the crashed UNSC cruiser, Pillar of Autumn, to Alpha Base. He set up an ambush for a convoy led by First Lieutenant Melissa McKay in which he put Wraith tanks and Ghost vehicles around three hills McKay's columns of Warthogs and Scorpion Tanks had to travel through. He also had large forces of Jackals and Grunts on the hills, as well as air support from at least twenty Banshees. The High Council of Masters thought that this job was important enough that they sent Ado 'Mortum to spy on the operation and write the report on its outcome. In the middle of the fight, 'Mortumee was sniped by Lance Corporal "Snaky" Jones. 'Putum narrowly dodged a second bullet aimed at him. His attempt to destroy the convoy failed, but he did do significant damage to the humans, at the expense of most of his soldiers and vehicles.

'Putum was later ordered to lead the assault of Alpha Base to coencide with Zuka 'Zamam's stealth landing aboard Pelican Charlie 217. Unable to land on any of the landing pads, the Spirits put the forces down outside of the human base. Unbeknownst to 'Putum, the humans had buried two of the Scorpion tanks up to their cannons. Upon landing, they were immediately assaulted by base defenses. 'Putum was killed by a blast from a Scorpion which cut him in half. Without his leadership, the attack failed.

It seems that 'Putum shares the same family name as Ado 'Mortum.
