For the Sangheili serving in the Banished, the position of warlord represents the most significant departure from the old [[Covenant]]'s traditional military structure. While Sangheili warlords typically serve as field commanders and generals in combat, they are described to be similar in role to that of a [[Kaidon]], the lord of a [[Sangheili]] [[keep]]. Although a warlord does not necessarily have to be a Kaidon, the few Kaidons willing to join the Banished despite its stigma, such as [[Thav 'Sebarim]],{{Ref/Game|Id=Target02|HINF|[[High Value Target]] dossier, Thav 'Sebarim}} are considered best suited for the position due to their ruling experience. A warlord commands hundreds of [[Sangheili Mercenary|mercenaries]] and [[Sangheili Enforcer|enforcers]] in a unified, holistic manner, and drives them to outperform all others in the Banished.{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22|Enc22|Page=429}} | |||

One of the most infamous of these Warlords was [[Chak 'Lok]], [[Escharum]]'s chief interrogator, who brutally tortured [[UNSC]] [[Prisoner of war|POWs]] at his [[Tower]]. On [[2560#May|May 28, 2560]], [[John-117]] stormed the Tower and slew Chak 'Lok, putting an end to the Warlord's reign of terror. As he continued his campaign against the Banished on Zeta Halo, the Master Chief encountered other Sangheili Warlords. | ||
