Stolt is a skilled Unggoy, having survived numerous battles and even besting a [[SPARTAN programs|Spartan]] supersoldier in combat. He was capable of besting any Sangheili he sparred with, generally enduring their melee strikes until they grew tired, before beating the opponent into submission with his powerful hands and feet. Stolt initially faced scrutiny from Sangheili personnel aboard ''Shadow of Intent'', who believed that Unggoy had little skill. However, after proving himself in combat, Stolt gained the respect of his peers and subordinates, and even the conservative Blademaster 'Soran agreed with 'Vadum's decision to charge Stolt with command of the carrier's Rangers. Stolt empathized with [[Tul 'Juran]]—who faced similar scrutiny due to her gender—and agreed with 'Vadum to allow her to join ''Shadow of Intent''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s crew.<ref name="soi26"/>

==Behind the scenes==
==Production notes==
In Danish, Icelandic, Norwegian, and Swedish: ''Stolt'' is an adjective that means ''proud''. He is presumably named this to suit him being very capable in battle.
''[[Halo: Shadow of Intent]]'' author [[Joseph Staten]] imagined Stolt as more muscular than a standard Unggoy, with a reserved personality. He described Stolt as "The kind of Unggoy that any smart Sangheili wouldn't want to meet in a dark alley at night". His name, Stolt, is a play on the word "stolid."<ref>[https://twitter.com/joestaten/status/1242930356799459330 ''Joseph Staten on Twitter'':] ''Very cool! I imagined him being taller and more "muscular" than ordinary grunts, with a very reserved personality. The kind of Unggoy that any smart Sangheili  wouldn't want to meet in a dark alley at night, if you know what I mean. His name, Stolt, is word-play on "stolid."''</ref>
