Vul 'Soran is a traditionalist [[Sangheili]] warrior of the [[Swords of Sanghelios]].

As a [[blademaster]], 'Soran is a renowned warrior and swordsman. Even in middle age, 'Soran still proved victorious in spars against younger opponents who sought to create a reputation with his defeat. The [[Covenant]]'s long [[Human-Covenant War|war]] against [[human]]ity sapped much of 'Soran's strength; 'Soran is no longer as quick as he once was and now tires easily, though the Blademaster still proves to be a formidable and skilled warrior. 'Vadum noted that 'Soran has still proven to be an effective dueler in their sparring sessions and a master in his dual-bladed combat technique. 'Vadum believed that 'Soran could face off against several Jiralhanae at a time, but could no longer be a formidable opponent to one of the Jiralhanae's more skilled [[Jiralhanae Chieftain|chieftains]].<ref name="SoI13"/> | As a [[blademaster]], 'Soran is a renowned warrior and swordsman.
