Template:Covenant Character Infobox
N'tho 'Sraom[1] is a male Sangheili (Elite) assigned to the Special Warfare Group of the Fleet of Retribution.
Background
'Sraom is the youngest member of his Special Operations unit and is one of a growing number of Human sympathizers amongst the Sangheili youth. He is a fairly typical young male adult Sangheili, he began compulsory military service at the end of adolescence, and remains unmarried with no close, non-familial relationships outside of his martial order. N’tho Sraom refused to stand indolently by while the Prophets replaced Sangheili units with Jiralhanae packs, and now bears deep resentment toward those politicians who landed his kind in their current predicament.
Although N’tho ‘Sraom’s romanticized nationalism is emblematic of all Sangheili, he has developed a healthy respect for humanity, not for their physical abilities or martial prowess, but for their audacity and resolve.
N'tho also appears to have been vital in giving intelligence on Covenant military structure and tactics, such as information on the Chopper.[2]
N'tho's armor seems to be similar in color to that of Minor Elites from previous games, though whether this has any significance is unknown. [3]
Trivia
- It should be noted that his name lacks the ee suffix associated with Elites in armed service. However when Rtas 'Vadumee was mentioned on Usze's page the ee suffix was also missing. This may be because the Elites are no longer listed in the Covenant Loyalists army, and they no longer use the ee suffix.
- N'tho 'Sraom is a playable character in Halo 3 as the third player character over either Xbox Live or System Link and Campaign Co-op mode
- The character's name first appears in the Bungie.net article describing the Brute Chopper, even before the announcement of four-player co-operative play (Though then he was called 'N'thro 'Sraom).
- N'tho has been nicknamed "Nitro" by devoted players (In reference to his original name of N'thro).
- N'tho has apparently been a vital source of information for the UNSC, detailing Jiralhanae rank structure and, in particular, the specific role the Choppers play within the Jiralhanae ranks.[4][5]
- It is interesting to note that N'tho never opens his right eye. This may be just a glitch, an oversight by Bungie, his eye may have been damaged in a fight, or he's just blind in that eye. Sometimes when he is killed he will reappear with both eyes open but they won't blink like the Arbiter and the other AI Elites.
- In Halo 3 Co-op, when he activates his flashlight, the light is simply there with no point of origin, no visible flashlight is on his shoulder. This also applies to Usze Taham' as well.
