The '''''Revenant''''' was a [[Covenant]] [[Frigate]]. It was attached to the [[Second Fleet of Homogeneous Clarity]] as a vanguard vessel of ''[[High Charity]]''. <ref>''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]''</ref>

During [[The Battle of Installation 05]], the ''Revenant'' was one of the many recently [[Brute]] occupied ships that began attacking [[Elite]] controlled ships as the [[Civil War of the Covenant]], or the "[[Great Schism]]", as the Elites called it, began. The ''Revenant'' followed [[Brute Chieftain]] [[Gargantum]]'s frigate, ''[[Twilight Compunction]]'' to attack the Elite held cruiser ''[[Incorruptible]]''.  

It followed the ''Incorruptible'' into deep space, but the appearance of the ''[[Bloodied Spirit]]'' under control of the [[Spartan-II]]s was enough of a distraction for the ''Incorruptible'' to destroy the ''Revenant'' with an [[Energy Projector]].

*The definition of a revenant is "a visible ghost or animated corpse that is believed to return from the grave to terrorize the living", which supports the fact that the Human's name of many of the Covenant's ships and vehicles after the supernatural (e.g. [[Ghost]], [[Wraith]], [[Banshee]] etc.).

*Despite some theories, the ''Revenant'' was not simply "reverent" misspelled. On page 227, of [[Ghosts of Onyx|''Halo: The Ghosts of Onyx'']] it clearly says, "Both frigates, the ''Twilight Compunction'' and the '''''Revenant''''' filled and blurred the edges of the holographic viewers, their lateral lines powering." , and again, "The shields of the '''''Revenant''''' boiled and popped. The hull peeled away bubbling, as the beam penetrated through and through."
