Fal was an Arbiter of the Covenant, a position which, at the time, was the general of the Covenant army. He was tough but fair to his men, and was a great military leader. However, he believed that his people had strayed from their honor and fought for power and supremacy, not for honor. Perhaps because of this, he also believed that the [[Covenant religion|Great Journey]] was a false belief, used by the Prophets to achieve power over the Covenant. For this, he was declared a heretic by the Hierarchs. To try and dispose of him, the Prophets sent the Covenant army to kill him. Fal's skill with a blade were unmatched, and he slaughtered an entire Covenant squad sent to dispatch him. | Fal was an Arbiter of the Covenant, a position which, at the time, was the general of the Covenant army.
