Tul joins [[Mahkee 'Chava]] as female members of the Swords of Sanghelios. Mahkee made her first appearance in 2015's ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'' as a [[Shipmaster|shipmistress]] supporting [[Fireteam Osiris]] on [[Sanghelios]]. These two Sangheili's varied positions indicate the level of female inclusiveness in the Swords' ranks reflected in [[343 Industries]]' effort for better representation for women in their media.<ref name="EGMNOW">[http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/343-head-correctly-believes-women-are-the-future-wants-more-female-devs-and-characters/ '''EGMNOW:''' ''343 head (correctly) believes women are the future, wants more female devs and characters'']</ref>
