'''Fleetmaster''',<ref>'''[[Halo: The Cole Protocol]]''', ''page 147''</ref> occasionally rendered as '''fleet master''', is a title given to individuals in command of [[battle group]]s and [[Covenant fleet|fleet]]s within the [[Covenant]] [[Covenant military|military]].<ref name="goo243"/> Prior to the dawn of the [[Great Schism]], the title was given to the [[Jiralhanae]].<ref name="jiralhanae"/>


The title of Fleetmaster was above the authority of [[Shipmaster]] and below the authority of [[Supreme Commander]].
==Rank==
One of the varying degrees of command titles within the [[Covenant fleet]], the title of fleet master was given to the officer in command of a [[fleet]]. While fleet master is distinct from the title of [[Supreme Commander]], both ranks gave their holders similar responsibilities for a fleet or a contingent of fleets.<ref>'''[[Halo Encyclopedia]]''', ''page 135'' (2011)</ref> The title was originally only assigned to [[Sangheili]] officers within the Covenant fleet, though towards the end of the [[Human-Covenant War]], the [[High Prophet of Truth]] rose several [[Jiralhanae]] to the title of fleet master in preparation for his plans to remove the Sangheili from the [[Covenant]].<ref name="jiralhanae"/> Following the empire's collapse during the [[Great Schism]], some Sangheili still held the title of fleet master.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/brute-force '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Community Update - Brute Force'']</ref><ref name="holiday shipping">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-holiday-shipping '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Canon Fodder - Canon Fodder'']</ref>

==Known fleet masters==
*[[Rtas 'Vadum]] – [[Shipmaster]] of {{Class|CAS|assault carrier}} ''[[Shadow of Intent]]''; fleet master of the [[Fleet of Retribution]].<ref>'''Halo Encyclopedia''', ''page 136'' (2011)</ref>
*[[Thel 'Vadam]]ee – Former shipmaster of ''CAS''-class assault carrier ''[[Seeker of Truth]]''; former fleet master of the [[Fleet of Particular Justice]].<ref>'''[[Halo: The Flood]]''', "[[Priority Broadcast Log/Eleventh Cycle, Third Unit]]", ''page 366'' (2010)</ref>
*[[Voro Nar 'Mantakree]] – [[Shipmaster]] of {{Class|ORS|heavy cruiser}} ''[[Incorruptible]]'', who led a fleet to follow ''[[Bloodied Spirit]]'' to [[Onyx]].<ref name="goo243"/>
*[[Kantar 'Utaralee]] – Fleet master of an unidentified fleet,<ref>[http://www.spartangames.co.uk/new-formations-for-halo-fleet-battles '''Spartan Games''': ''New Formations for Halo: Fleet Battles'']</ref> perhaps the remnants of the [[Fleet of Valiant Prudence]].
*[[Unidentified Sangheili Shipmaster (The Return)|Unidentified shipmaster]] – Shipmaster of a ''CAS''-class assault carrier; fleet master of the [[Fleet of Righteous Vigilance]].


Fleetmasters personally appointed by the [[Hierarchs]] to lead major expeditions were promoted to the title of [[Supreme Commander]].<ref>''Halo: Warfleet'', p. 92</ref>
==Behind the scenes==
 
The difference between the ranks of fleet master and [[Supreme Commander]] are unknown. ''[[Halo: The Flood]]'' and the ''[[Halo Encyclopedia]]'' have referred to [[Thel 'Vadam]]ee as the fleet master of the [[Fleet of Particular Justice]], though most sources referred to him as the Supreme Commander of the fleet. It is unknown if the references to 'Vadamee being a fleet master are incorrect or if he held both titles.
