Crewed primarily by [[Unggoy]] and [[Kig-yar]], they are often sent out to search and find [[Forerunner]] relics. Kig-yar privateers with their own ships are often employed for the task. | |||
The only known Missionary Ship mentioned thus far was the ''Minor Transgression'', which was captained by Shipmistress [[Chur'R-Yar]]. It was later destroyed during a battle with [[Sergeant]]s [[Avery Johnson|Johnson]] and [[Nolan Byrne|Byrne]] by the Ship Mistress, Chur'R-Yar, in an attempt to kill Sgt. Johnson. | The only known Missionary Ship mentioned thus far was the ''Minor Transgression'', which was captained by Shipmistress [[Chur'R-Yar]].

The ''Minor Transgression'' was described as being shaped like a fishhook, with many segmented compartments and barbed antennae spanning from the prow to the stern engine. The ship had an umbilical that the crew used to board enemy vessels. | The ''Minor Transgression'' was described as being shaped like a fishhook, with many segmented compartments and barbed antennae spanning from the prow to the stern engine.
