| ==Covenant== | | == Images == |
| The Covenant commonly use holotanks on their starships, and they are plentiful in ''[[High Charity (Structure)|High Charity]]'' as well. [[AI]]s can also access the map data from the holotank's link to the Covenant information network and give directions verbally to anyone near the holotank. In ''[[Halo 2]]'', [[Cortana]] enters one to gain access to info in High Charity on the level [[Gravemind (Level)|Gravemind]], remaining there for the rest of the game. The Covenant also utilize portable holotanks, referred to as [[Holo-Pedestal]]s, to communicate over distance or in the battlefield.
