Major is an Unggoy rank of the Covenant Loyalists [1][2][3].

Background

Role

Unggoy Majors are higher than rank than Minors and are slightly more powerful than their lesser counterparts in terms of strength and leadership. They often lead Minors in battle, and sometimes entire Lances when no higher caste species are present. However, even these higher-ranked Unggoy hold no power over any other forces in Covenant society.

Description

They wear red armor as opposed to the orange armor of Minors and are more courageous as well, sometimes not fleeing the battle scene. If all their commanders, Sangheili or Jiralhanae, are killed, sometimes they will stand and fight. They usually attack with a combined team of Unggoy and Kig-yar, and while they command their Minor subordinates.

Deployment

During combat, Majors are usually the first one to jump out of the Dropships. They are known to combine their forces in battle often the Majors will pair up and fight together with numerous subordinate Unggoy and even Kig-yar or Yanme'e soldiers.
