'''Buran 'Utaral''' is a [[Sangheili]] and a former [[Shipmaster]] for the [[Covenant]]. Following the [[Human-Covenant War]], he was a commander in the [[Servants of the Abiding Truth]].<ref>'''[[Halo: Glasslands]]''', ''page 172''</ref>

During the [[Human-Covenant War]] he was the shipmaster of the ''[[Unflinching Resolve]]'', but he lost command of his [[Covenant frigate|frigate]] during the [[Great Schism]]. By [[2553#January|January 2553]], he had joined the [[Servants of Abiding Truth]]. During one of their meetings he stated that he believed he still held the loyalty of most of his crew, and that with a few volunteers he could retake it. When three other shipmasters, including [[Jul 'Mdama]] volunteered to help, they were amused at the thought of four shipmasters on one ship.<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''pages 172-173''</ref> He asked Jul what his plan was to retake the ship, which was to simply to go to the shipyards and fly it out. He agreed with Jul's plan and promised to contact his loyal crewmen in order to retake the ship. His ship was located at the [[Aanrar Shipyard]] on the [[Ranarum Orbital Platform]], orbiting [[Sanghelios]]. Jul, [[Avu Med 'Telcam]], and [[Forze 'Mdama]] accompanied Buran to the shipyard. After the group got to the frigate's bridge, Buran told the shipyard's dockmaster that he was taking ''Unflinching Resolve'' for maintenance assessments. After the dockmaster allowed the ship to depart, Buran took his frigate outside of contact range with the dockmaster.<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''page 198''</ref> The four agreed to hid the frigate in [[Bekan quarry]] in the state of [[Mdama]] until the ship was needed.<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''page 201''</ref>

After the attempted Jiralhanae uprising in the state of [[Ontom]], 'Telcam decided to launch an attack on the state of [[Vadam]].<ref>'''Halo: The Thursday War''', ''page 28''</ref> Buran and 'Telcam came to Mdama to retrieve the ''Unflinching Resolve'' where they met Forze and [[Raia 'Mdama]], Jul's wife. After Raia and Forze joined Buran and 'Telcam, Buran took the frigate out of state and picked up several loyal troops. With nine vessels, 'Telcam declared that it was time to attack Vadam, though Buran felt that they needed more troops and ships. 'Telcam led the assault on Vadam at the bridge of the frigate with Buran, Forze, and Raia. Buran was warned by 'Telcam to avoid damaging any [[Forerunner]] relics in the state, much to his disbelief. During the assault, ''Unflinching Resolve'' was damaged. Buran warned 'Telcam that the frigate needed to retreat, but 'Telcam ordered him to continue the attack. Ultimately, the frigate was shot down and the ship crash-landed on the Vadam shoreline, although 'Telcam, Raia, Forze, and Buran survived.<ref>'''Halo: The Thursday War''', ''page 168''</ref> Buran was later given command of the ''[[Promised Revelation]]''.<ref>'''Halo: The Thursday War''', ''page 319''</ref>
