==Biography== | ==Biography== | ||
During the [[Human-Covenant | During the [[Human-Covenant War]], Chol Von served as [[Shipmaster|shipmistress]] of the [[missionary ship]] ''[[Paragon|Joyous Discovery]]'', which she renamed ''Paragon'' at the first opportunity during the [[Great Schism]]. At some point she captured a [[Phantom]], killing two [[Sangheili]] in the process. She would later use it as her personal transport. After the collapse of the [[Covenant]] she lost her ship. She has four sons; [[Hiiq]], [[Gon]], [[Kij]], and [[Laik]], whom she was forced to take care of herself since her mate, [[Vek]], had gone to [[Reynes]] to find tantalum deposits, something she considered cowardly. | ||
Following the end of the war, Chol Von sought to create a united naval force to defend the Kig-Yar from outside threats. [[Avu Med 'Telcam]], the leader of the [[Servants of the Abiding Truth]], contracted Von to track down the battlecruiser ''[[Pious Inquisitor]]'', previously stolen by another Kig-Yar, [[Sav Fel]], and return the ship to the Abiding Truth. However, Von intended to seize the battlecruiser for herself instead, and use it as the backbone of her planned Kig-Yar navy. After gathering a crew from the port of [[Ap'ot]] and questioning [[Huz Mor-Kha]] with her lieutenant, [[Zim]], Chol Von traveled to the [[Station of Constant Sustenance]] where she tracked down [[Eith Mor]], a known associate of Sav Fel. She learned that ''Pious Inquisitor'' was last seen over [[Shaps III]] and headed there. | |||
Eventually, Von and her crew discovered ''Pious Inquisitor'' and forcibly cut their way inside. However, the ship's resident [[Huragok]], [[Sometimes Sinks]], was highly apprehensive of the Kig-Yar and hindered with their attempts to use the battlecruiser's systems, even transitioning the ship to a location designated by its current owner, [[Staffan Sentzke]]. The slipspace jump uncoupled ''Pious Inquisitor'' from Von's ship, killing several of the Kig-Yar in the process. With Von and her crew locked down in different compartments of the ship, Sometimes Sinks offered the Kig-Yar the chance to leave, opening passages to one of the [[shuttle bay]]s. However, Chol was determined to keep the ship even as it was boarded by the human special forces team [[Kilo-Five]]. The humans having killed several of Von's crew and bearing down on the bridge, Von ordered her crew to detonate the ship's [[plasma turret|plasma torpedo]] reserves, choosing to destroy ''Pious Inquisitor'' over leaving it to the humans. She and her remaining crew then made their way for a shuttle bay in order to escape. | |||
