Sangheili: Difference between revisions

Ossoona is a special rank of Sangheili that are meant to be spies and are not properly equipped for heavy combat, instead meant for information gathering on human weapons and military data. They are also referred to as the "Eyes of the Prophets," because "the Sangheili had an unfortunate tendency to destroy everything in their path, leaving very little for their analysts to analyse".{{citation needed}} One of the major items of information the Ossoonas were tasked with discovering was the location of Earth.{{citation needed}} It is a temporary rank only granted to those who have attained at least the rank of Major Domo, the reason being that a Minor's lack of experience could cause them to be very easily compromised (i.e. detected) or that they may abandon the mission outright in pursuit of personal glory.{{citation needed}} It is not given to Sangheili of higher rank because they are considered too valuable and would rather engage in combat.{{citation needed}} One example of a Ossoona was an Sangheili named [[Isna 'Nosolee]] from the book ''[[Halo: The Flood]]''.{{citation needed}}
