A residence for Sangheili that have returned from battles to mate and raise/train their young, the keep has many common rooms for the average inhabitants, but the [[Kaidon]] resides in a larger room for his higher status. It is believed that every keep has dozens of guards for the Kaidon's safety, although the Kaidon usually removes threats himself to show his battle prowess and that he is a capable leader, for it is believed that a Kaidon should be chosen for his skill in battle.

Each keep has a wall where the saga of the keep is written. The saga wall is believed to be in the same room as the council chamber. Keeps are constructed of non-Covenant alloys and are built with more traditional items such as stone and wood, although this theory has not been proven and Covenant metals may be utilized. Depending on the ranking status of the inhabitants the keep may be decorated with [[Forerunner]] alloys. Wearing amour around the keep is not customary as most of the inhabitants wear non-combat Sangheili tunics or robes the colors and patterns on the clothing are representative of the ranking status the brighter colors and more complex patterns shows higher status. It is unknown if weapons are carried by the common occupant; the Kaidon carries his traditional [[Type-1 Energy Weapon/Sword|Energy sword]] and [[Type-25 Directed Energy Pistol|Plasma pistol]] sidearm with him at all times. In case of an attack on the keep there would probably be an armory somewhere.<ref name="ref1"/>
