Minor was the lowest rank bestowed upon Unggoy in the Covenant's military and the fighting forces of a select number of of the empire's remnants.[1][2] These post-Covenant factions in which minors served included those led by Merg Vol and Jul 'Mdama[3]
History
Minors were considered the lowest-ranking of Unggoy in the Covenant's war machine for many years. Minors saw action in a myriad of theaters during the decades-long Human-Covenant War, during which time they would typically be treated as expendable cannon fodder. After the war's conclusion, large numbers of Unggoy minors fought on behalf of Merg Vol's Covenant during the Battle of Draetheus V in 2554. And though minors were not prevalent in Jul 'Mdama's Covenant, they were noticeably present for the Battle of Installation 03 in 2557.
Equipment
Unggoy Minors were usually sent into combat with very little in the way of equipment. They wore simple, orange-colored combat harnesses with either a pyramidal or a more smooth, less pointed methane tank. Minors were often equipped with Type-25 plasma pistols or Type-33 needlers, but on occasion they were given Type-33 fuel rod guns. It was also not uncommon for an Unggoy minor to carry Type-1 plasma grenades.
