The Vadam Keep is the Sangheili keep of the Vadam family, the ruling clan of the state of Vadam in the Yermo province of Sanghelios.[1] Over a thousand years old, it is built on the lower slopes of Kolaar Mountain with warrens running inside the mountain itself, something that has made it well defensible over the ages.[2]
In ancient times, after being overthrown, Ther 'Vadam and his soldiers were imprisoned in the keep. Ther eventually escaped and after recruiting followers from the wilderness, returned and retook the keep. In 2535, shortly after being elected as kaidon of the state of Vadam, Thel 'Vadam was attacked by three assassins sent by Koida 'Vadam, all of which failed, and were all killed by his own hand without a scratch.[1]
During the Servants of the Abiding Truth's insurrection in early 2553, the Vadam keep became the target of a concentrated attack by the insurgent forces. The intervention of the UNSC Infinity eventually drove back the attackers,[3] although the keep took heavy damage.[4]
