Energy stave: Difference between revisions

Line 26:

Ceremonial energy staves feature an elaborate, forked tip with ornate panels similar in color to the glowing armor panels of their wielders. They are used exclusively by the [[Honor Guard of the Covenant|Honor Guard]] [[Sangheili Honor Guardsman|Sangheili]], [[Jiralhanae Honor Guardsman|Jiralhanae]] and the [[Lights of Sanghelios]].<ref name="grave">'''Halo 2''', campaign level, ''[[Gravemind (level)|Gravemind]]''</ref><ref name="ch"/>

The energy stave mostly serves a ceremonial purpose as opposed to a combat one; the stave has been used as an actual offensive weapon in rare cases only. The Honor Guard Sangheili mostly use [[Type-25 ~~Directed Energy Rifle|Plasma Rifles~~]], [[Type-1 ~~Energy Weapon/Sword|Energy Swords~~]], and [[Type-51 ~~Carbine|Covenant Carbines~~]] in combat. However, they were used by [[Jiralhanae]] to subdue any [[Unggoy]] and [[Kig-Yar]] that came too close to the [[High Council Chamber]] during one of the [[Prophet of Truth|High Prophet of Truth]]'s sermons regarding the discovery of the [[Activation Index|"Sacred Icon"]].<ref name="grave"/>

===Non-ceremonial stave===

This version of the energy stave is more ascetic in design than the ceremonial stave. Metallic gray in overall coloration, it incorporates a twin-bladed tip with blue paneling. Unlike the ceremonial staves only used by Honor Guards, these weapons can also be wielded by regular Sangheili, including [[Sangheili ~~Minor|Minors~~]]. During the [[Battle of Shield 0459]], a group of Sangheili guards assigned to protect the [[Apex Site]] on [[Shield World 0459]] were equipped with energy staves.<ref name="wars"/>
