Major Domo are veteran warriors whose rank is medium-low in the Covenant Sangheili rank structure, but are higher ranked than a [[Minor Sangheili]]. Only a Major Domo can obtain the temporary rank of [[Ossoona]], mainly due to the fact that a more seasoned warrior prefers combat, not stealth, and a Minor is too inexperienced to become the Ossoona. They usually command groups of Minors as well as other Covenant races in ground combat situations. In addition to commanding ground forces, Majors may also occupy the role of a "second-master" on a starship,<ref>'''[[Halo: Blood Line]]''', [[Halo: Blood Line Issue 1|Issue 1]]''</ref> effectively acting as the [[Shipmaster]]'s second-in-command.<ref>'''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]''', ''page 189''</ref>
Majors are veteran warriors whose rank is directly above that of [[Minor Sangheili]]. Only Majors can obtain the temporary rank of [[Ossoona]], mainly due to the fact that a more seasoned warrior prefers combat, not stealth, and a Minor is too inexperienced to become an Ossoona. Majors command groups of Minors as well as other Covenant races in ground combat situations. Majors also tend to serve as the second-in-command aboard Covenant starships.
 
They are physically similar to a [[SPARTAN-II]] super soldier in terms of raw muscular strength. They are far more intuitive and quick-thinking than their subordinates. A single Major Domo is capable enough to survive against an entire squad of [[Marine]]s. To [[Humans]], they would be and are considered [[Lieutenant]]s in the Covenant. The rank of a Major Domo can be compared to that of a [[Brute Ultra]]. On lower difficulties of both ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' and ''[[Halo 2]]'', Major Domos are rarely seen without a Minor present. However, on the higher difficulty levels ([[Heroic]] and [[Legendary]]), these Sangheili are more numerous than Minors, in order to increase the difficulty of the game.
