Maccabeus: Difference between revisions

Line 40:

Maccabeus was one of the first official representatives of the Covenant to meet with the humans. However, the talks went sour when an overeager [[Yull|Unggoy]], lead by Tartarus, broke rank and made an early attack on a group of militia recruits. One Unggoy attacked a recruit named [[Osmo]]. When Osmo caught a glimpse of his attacker, he attempted to open fire, but it was already too late. The Unggoy split Osmo open across his belly. After confirming that there was an Oracle on the planet, Maccabeus sent a message to the Vice-Minister. However, the response the Chieftain received said that there were no relics or Oracle, and that the aliens were to be destroyed. Unable to reconcile the orders of the Prophets with his own faith in the Forerunners Luminary, Maccabeus decided to continue his search for relics, something which the rest of the pack disagreed with. Descending to [[Gladsheim]] to begin their search, Maccabeus was severely injured in battle when he was hit by [[Staff Sergeant|Sergeant]] [[Avery Junior Johnson|Johnson]]'s [[Warthog]] and suffered from a broken thigh bone. Returning to the ship, Maccabeus found that ''Lighter Than Some'', who wanted to make peace between the Covenant and the humans, had built some plows from a [[Spirit]] damaged when it and Dadab had been brought aboard. Having feared he would be killed for the Huragok's disobedience, Dadab said that they were vehicles of war for the Jiralhanae. After Dadab took the Huragok to the [[Tiara]] for safekeeping when the [[Yanme'e]] attacked it, ''Lighter Than Some'' made contact with [[Loki]] and set a trap to help the humans escape Harvest.

Being lead to believe that the humans were surrendering the Oracle, Maccabeus took the ''Rapid Conversion'' to [[Utgard]]. However, the ''Rapid Conversion'' damaged by the planet's [[mass driver]] as the humans fled aboard the Tiara. Believing this was enough, Tartarus challenged Maccabeus for dominance of the pack. Having yet to fully heal from his injury, Maccabeus was overwhelmed. Maccabeus' last words to Tartarus were: "Never forget the meaning of this [[Age of Doubt|Age]], nephew." Tartarus then crushed Maccabeus' skull with the ''Fist of Rukt'' while he clung onto a ladder. Maccabeus' body plummeted into the explosions and fires below. Tartarus returned to Maccabeus' body and stripped him of his Chieftain armor.
