Reff and his brother Thon were both born on [[Sanghelios]] in the [[State of Thasanee|city-state of Thasanee]]. The former was considered to be weaker than most Sangheili males, but Thon saw something special in him and watched out for him his entire life. | Reff and his brother Thon were both born on [[Sanghelios]] in the [[State of Thasanee|city-state of Thasanee]].

When the two brothers joined the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]], Thon rose through the ranks to becoming [[Shipmaster]] of the Covenant assault carrier ''Clarity of Faith'', with Reff as his second-in-command. While attempting to rendezvous with a supply convoy in [[Sub-Sector 35]], the ship picked up a transmission that displayed a Pi-constant, a system not used by the Covenant or the [[human]]s. Reff eagerly took this to be a message from the [[Forerunner]]s and a sign of the [[Covenant religion#Great Journey|Great Journey]] and insisted that they must investigate. However, Thon ignored his fanatical brother and ordered ''Clarity'' to make a [[Slipstream space|Slipspace jump]]. When they jumped, there was a sudden burst of energy that sent the ''Clarity'' crashing down onto a [[Unidentified moon (Sub-sector 35)|desolate moon]]. Again, Reff jumped to the conclusion that the Great Journey was about to start. Thon slammed his brother against a bulkhead and scolded him for speaking heresy. He further warned that if Reff ever interfered with his command, he would personally gut his carcass. | When the two brothers joined the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]], Thon rose through the ranks to becoming [[Shipmaster]] of the Covenant assault carrier ''Clarity of Faith'', with Reff as his second-in-command.

Donning [[Sangheili Ranger|Ranger]] armor in order to explore the airless moon and scouting out the landscape in a [[Type-26 Wraith|Wraith]], they encountered a [[Team Black|team]] of [[SPARTAN-II Program|Spartans]] and engaged them. Their fight was interrupted by the arrival of a few [[Gatherer]]s, which captured Reff, a [[Mgalekgolo]], an [[Unggoy]] and Spartan [[Black-One]] and brought them to [[Line Installation 1-4]]. The captives were deposited into separate holding cells. Reff offered to teach Black-One about the Journey in their final hours, which the human politely declined. They were all addressed by the [[Monitor]] of the Installation [[686 Ebullient Prism]], who said that he needed their help in researching immunity to [[the Flood]], intending to dissect them in the process. | Donning [[Sangheili Ranger|Ranger]] armor in order to explore the airless moon and scouting out the landscape in a [[Type-26 Wraith|Wraith]], they encountered a [[Team Black|team]] of [[SPARTAN-II Program|Spartans]] and engaged them.

Reff was horrified that he was doomed to be torn apart. Black-One told him to pull himself together. Their conversation was interrupted by the return of Prism, who turned his eye on Black-One. Reff pleaded before the Monitor, stating that the human didn't believe in the Journey. Prism was more fascinated with Reff's rudimentary understanding of protocol and instead dissected the Unggoy, before moving on to deal with some "unauthorized" presences inside the Installation.<ref>'''Halo: Blood Line''', ''[[Halo: Blood Line Issue 3|Issue 3]]''</ref> Black-One reaffirmed his attention to make her death quick and painless, to which the Monitor was more than glad to accomplish. However, it was a trick, as Black-One used her helmet to deflect the lasers at a nearby Gatherer, hitting her space mag clip, causing the machine to crash into her cell. Grabbing its weapon, she used it to free Thon before they fled from Prism. As they were chased through the halls by Prism and his [[Sentinel]]s, Black-One was knocked down by a Sentinel's [[Sentinel Beam|energy beam]].<ref>'''Halo: Blood Line''', ''[[Halo: Blood Line Issue 4|Issue 4]]''</ref> | Reff was horrified that he was doomed to be torn apart.
