The [[Banished]] utilize '''torture machines''' to interrogate prisoners. Within this device, a prisoner is trapped behind an [[energy barrier]] while also being suspended by [[torture manacle]]s around the arms and legs. The machine uses micro [[Gravity well (physics)|gravity wells]] to inflict excruciating pain on the victim, in a manner similar to the [[Gravitational Refinement|gravitational refinement device]] used by the [[Prophet of Exquisite Devotion]].{{Ref/Quest|Id=House of Reckoning|HI|Reckoning (Halo Infinite)|House of Reckoning}}

==History==
==History==
During the [[Battle for Zeta Halo]], the [[Sangheili Warlord]] [[Chak 'Lok]] used these machines at his fortress, the [[Tower]], to brutally torture and interrogate [[UNSC]] [[prisoner of war|POWs]], including [[SPARTAN-IV program|Spartan]] [[Hudson Griffin]] and combat medic [[Lucas Browning]]. On [[2560#May|May 28, 2560]], [[Master Chief Petty Officer|Master Chief]] [[John-117]] stormed the Tower, slew Chak 'Lok, and freed Griffin from the machine. Unfortunately, Griffin died from his injuries shortly thereafter.{{Ref/Quest|Id=Tower|HI|Lockdown (Halo Infinite)|The Tower}}

Later, [[War Chief]] [[Escharum]] had [[Fernando Esparza]] placed inside a torture machine at the [[House of Reckoning (location)|House of Reckoning]].{{Ref/Reuse|House of Reckoning}} He then broadcasted Esparza's torture live via [[hologram]] to John-117 in order to force the Master Chief into a final confrontation.{{Ref/Quest|Id=Repository|HI|Reckoning (Halo Infinite)|Repository (Halo Infinite level)}} When the Chief arrived at the House of Reckoning and faced him, Escharum linked his [[Energy shielding|personal energy shield]] to the torture machine so that any damage the Master Chief tried to inflict on him was transferred to Esparza instead. [[The Weapon]] exposed the relays powering Escharum's shield, enabling the Chief to disable the shield without further harming Esparza. After defeating Escharum, John-117 and the Weapon freed Esparza from the machine.{{Ref/Reuse|House of Reckoning}}
