Jiralhanae: Difference between revisions

Line 105:

Heavily muscled and possessing an animalistic brutality and strength, Brutes can rely on close combat to defeat their enemies, even more so than their [[Elite]] counterparts. However, their great strength may in fact be simply relative, due to the species' evolution on a world with twice the gravity of Delta Halo, Earth, and other planets and structures with one G. Featuring characteristics simian, ursine, and alien, their appearance fits their [[human]] given name.

Their heavy muscles gives them at least enough strength to be able to snap a Human Marine's neck in one punch, as seen in [[Arrival]].

Brutes have digits on each hand including opposable thumbs. As such they can make use of a variety of weapons both of Covenant and human design. Their feet have only two digits. The Halo 3 Tartarus figure has a red tongue but if this is canon is unknown. When it comes to ranged conflict Brutes show a tendency to use large, rapid firing, often powerful weapons. This may be indicative of their mentality and an extension of their brutal nature. The many spikes and serrated edges that adorn their race's weapons, vehicles and armor further exhibit this. It is interesting to note that in ''[[Halo 2]]'' Jiralhanae can be seen using human [[M90 Close Assault Weapon System|shotguns]]. Brutes sometimes wield their own handgun-style shotguns, [[Type-52 Pistol|Maulers]], in ''Halo 3''.
