Sangheili Zealot: Difference between revisions

Zealots do not appear in ''[[Halo 3]]''. Their lack of appearance is not explained; however, Bungie's changing the Sangheili species from enemy to ally may have had some part in it. Zealots would have been present at the Battle of Installation 00, but were probably on their ships rather than on the ground. They might have been on the ground as well, but had been deployed to other places. Considering the Arbiter was leading the forces seen in unison with the UNSC, the dispersal of Zealots elsewhere seems likely. It is possible, however, that soon after the [[Sangheili]] broke away from the Covenant the rank of Zealot was abandoned, because they are no longer particularly religious. In many areas throughout the game where Zealots would normally appear, they may have been replaced by [[War Chieftain|Brute Commanders]], as many of the former [[Elite]] positions were awarded to the Brutes when the [[Prophets]] replaced them.
