- "On the blood of our fathers. On the blood of our sons."
- — Sangheili Ultra's mantra.
The Sangheili Ultra is the highest Covenant Sangheili regular rank.
Description
The standard Sangheili Ultras command specific operations and are the Covenant's equivalent to field officers. They are directly subordinate to Zealots, who command fleets and armies. They are used on high-priority missions, such as defending the Scarab that was deployed in New Mombasa and during the battle in the Mausoleum of the Arbiter.
Ultras are equipped with pearlescent armor, with higher-than-average shield strength.
In Halo: Reach along with the white armor are red war stripes. They also appear to be somewhat more common than on the other Halo titles.
Operational history
The Sangheili Ultras are one of the top tier Covenant units and have served gallantly in multiple engagements throughout the Human-Covenant War.
The Sangheili Ultras were seen leading a ground campaign on Reach as well as defending key locations for further reinforcements from the Covenant ships.[1]
During the Battle of Installation 04, corpses of Sangheili Ultras were seen scattered within the CCS-class Battlecruiser, the Truth and Reconciliation, presumably killed in combat with the Flood.[2] The Sangheili Ultras were also seen leading the ground campaign in the occupation of Mombasa, leading multiple lances against the UNSC as well as escorting the Scarab towards the city metropolis of Mombasa.[3][4] Some were also seen assisting the Arbiter Thel 'Vadam against the Jiralhanae during the Civil War of the Covenant.[5] After Regret's departure to Delta Halo, the Sangheili Ultras along with their brethren that were left behind in New Mombasa were engaged by the Jiralhanae and were slain.[6] Several corpses of Sangheili Ultras were seen in a Flood-commandeered CCS-class ship during the Flood invasion of Voi.[7]
Trivia
- Given what is played out in both Halo: CE and Halo 2, an Ultra seems to perform the same duties and be just as important as a senior field officer. If this is true, the Ultras are the Covenant's version of UNSC Lieutenant Colonels/Colonels and Commanders/Captains.
- In Halo 2 if the Thunderstorm skull is activated, all Sangheili will be upgraded to this rank.
- In Halo: Reach multiplayer, the Ultra Combat Harness is available after a player reaches the rank of Warrant Officer.[8]
