The ''Pelosus''-pattern fireblade is one of the many energy sword variants manufactured by the Covenant. The ''Pelosus''-pattern is characterized by its circular blade contour around the hilt.{{Ref/Reuse|enc22}} Some ''Pelosus''-pattern energy swords contain a fail-safe mechanism that can permanently disable the weapon if the Sangheili wielding it drops it.{{Ref/Novel|FS|Page=74}} When dropped, the failsafe engages by deactivating the magnetic field before dispersing the plasma. The plasma then consumes the handle and thus destroys the weapon.{{Ref/Reuse|hce}} | The ''Pelosus''-pattern fireblade is one of the many energy sword variants manufactured by the Covenant.
