'''Councilor''' is the highest rank attainable for an [[Elite]] of the [[Covenant]], military or politically. They are members of the [[High Council]], along with the [[Prophets|Lesser Prophets]]. They share power directly under the [[High Prophets]]. 

Councilors have been described as "aristocratic" by lesser races. Only one Councilor's name has ever been stated, that of [[Soha 'Rolamee]]. The structure of his name indicates that he has participated in the military. In fact, it is likely that every Councillor Elite is required to participate in the Covenant military.

During the [[Civil War of the Covenant]], many of these Elites were taken to the surface of [[Installation 05]] where they were massacred by the [[Brutes]]. Several were imprisoned, however, and they were set free by the [[Arbiter (character)|Arbiter]] and assisted him in assasinating [[Tartarus]]. 

They are quite adept in [[sword]] combat, and also wield [[plasma rifles]] and [[plasma pistols]].
 
==Appearance==

The Councilors wear large, distinct and oddly shaped crowns as ceremonial helmets. These helmets are silver mostly and also have streaks of dark gray and olive. Their crowns are reminiscent of the queen alien's head from the ALIENS series. For armor they wear white plates like Ultras.

These Elites appear only four times in Halo 2.

*In the end of the level [[Gravemind]], next to the mausoleum of the Arbiter room, carrying an Energy Sword. They are also some times seen wearing the Ultra Honor Guard armor with Councilor helmet at the end of the level.
*In ''[[High Charity]]'''s [[Step of Silence]], while the judgment of the future Arbiter takes place.
*In the Arbiter's battle against Tartarus.
*In The Great Journey when you free 2 of them and 2 [[Hunters]].
