Before the fall of the Covenant at the end of the [[Human-Covenant War]], Chak 'Lok defected and joined the [[Banished]]. Here, he enjoyed greater autonomy, and was instrumental in recruiting dozens of [[Sangheili Ultra]] divisions into the mercenary organization. As he was particularly adept in the art of interrogation and information extraction, 'Lok put these skills to use on agents of his former empire, collecting intel on strategic locations, targets, and assets that would bolster the Banished arsenal and expand its influence.{{Ref/Reuse|EN}}

 

 

Following Chak 'Lok's death, [[Glibnub]], the [[Unggoy]] communications officer operating the Banished [[propaganda tower]]s across the Halo, claimed that Chak 'Lok was still "100% alive" and that the Tower had simply been closed for "renovations."{{Ref/Game|HI|Propaganda Tower dialogue|Quote=To all humans looking forward to being interrogated to death, I regret to report that the Tower is closed for renovations by order of Commander Chak 'Lok, who is 100% alive, but don’t worry, we’ll be happy to make other arrangements to send you to whatever stupid afterlife you believe in, or absent that, the inky abyss.|Quotee=Glibnub}} The Banished at the [[Forge of Teash (location)|Forge of Teash]], on the other hand, acknowledged the Tower's fall and put the blame entirely on Chak 'Lok.{{Ref/Quest|Id=FoT quote|HI|Connections|Forge of Teash|Quote=All Banished within the Forge of Teash. Hear these words. The Tower has fallen. Chak 'Lok has failed us all. But be assured! We will prevail!|Quotee=Brute Officer}} [[Bassus]], the head of security at [[Site Novem]], openly expressed delight at Chak 'Lok's death.{{Ref/Level|Id=Bassus quote|HI|Excavation Site|Quote=I thank you for killing Chak 'Lok! I never liked him anyway!|Quotee=Bassus}}

Chak 'Lok often spoke in a calm, polite manner, even when addressing his enemies. However, he quickly dropped this demeanor once the battle started. 'Lok enjoyed torturing his prisoners both physically and mentally. Arrogant and prideful, he displayed no concern when the Master Chief attacked the Tower.{{Ref/Reuse|HI}} He held a low view of humans in general, regarding them as being soft and easy to break.{{Ref/Game|HI|Audio log (Halo Infinite)#The Prisoner 2|UNSC Audio log|Detail=The Prisoner #04 - Easy to Break}} Like many [[Sangheili]], he also viewed the [[Jiralhanae]] with contempt, though he was still a loyal follower of [[Atriox]] and later, [[Escharum]].{{Ref/Quest|HI|Connections|The Tower|Quote=You are as bad as the Brutes!|Quotee=Chak 'Lok Boss Fight dialogue}} Chak 'Lok also regarded The [[Harbinger]] with a certain degree of reverence, viewing her words as "the truth".{{Ref/Game|HI|Audio log (Halo Infinite)#The Prisoner 2|UNSC Audio log|Detail=The Prisoner #06 - Price Paid}}
