The '''Plasma Charge''' is a [[Covenant]] air-to-ground [[plasma]] weapon utilized by [[Seraphs]] for ground bombardment. They are initially focused pillars of superheated gas, but quickly lose integrity and billow out into destructive conflagrations that can overwhelm even [[SPARTAN-III]] battle armor, as seen in the tragic [[Operation: TORPEDO|Battle of Pegasi Delta]], where there was sustained usage of plasma charges which were sufficient to slaughter hundreds of the commandos of [[Beta Company]] in the open. Only finding cover saved the SPARTAN-IIIs from Seraph plasma charges.
