'''''Foebane''''' was a {{Pattern|Varric|heavy cruiser}} that was controlled by the [[Voice of Maardoth]] during the [[Carrow Conflict]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=HE|Env}}

====Great Schism====

After the [[Jiralhanae]] took power during the [[Great Schism]], the [[Jiralhanae Chieftain]] [[Hekabe]] took control of the ''Foebane'', which was called the ''Gathering of Praise'' at the time.{{Ref/Generic|Id=HLCDD5|Heading=[[Halo Legendary Crate]]|Subheading=[[Halo Legendary Crate/Data Drops|Data Drop #5]]}}

''Foebane'' was present during the [[Battle of Installation 00]], where it broke off from the main Voice of Maardoth force in order to follow the [[Prophet of Truth]] to the [[Installation 00 Citadel]] in preparation for the firing of the [[Halo Array]]. As such they were not present when [[Sangheili]] forces attacked and destroyed the clan's forces, effectively wiping out Hekabe's bloodline.{{Ref/Reuse|HLCDD5}} ''Foebane'' then fled the Ark after Hekabe took his remaining forces into the depths of the installation and recovered the [[Vertex]].{{Ref/Reuse|HE}}

After six years of translating the [[Forerunner]] script on the vertex, Hekabe learned of the location of a [[Sharquoi hive]] on the planet of [[Carrow]]. In order to get to get a foothold on the planet, Hekabe pledged his fleet to assist [[Thars 'Sarov]] in an uprising against [[Kaidon]] [[Rojka 'Kasaan]] and the humans on the planet. The [[Carrow Conflict]] was initially going in Rojka's favor, but the arrival of ''Foebane'' and other Jiralhanae ship turned the tide in Thars's favor. After defeating most of Rojka's ships, Hekabe began landing on the surface of Carrow. One of Rojka's remaining [[Covenant frigate|frigate]]s, ''[[Vengeful Deed]]'', attempted to take ''Foebane'' by surprise but was destroyed by the other Jiralhanae ships. ''Foebane'' began landing troops in [[Suraka]] to secure the city.{{Ref/Reuse|HE}}

For the majority of the battle, ''Foebane'' hovered over [[Suraka]], using its ventral [[energy projector]] to dig a crater leading to the [[Sharquoi]] hive beneath the city. When the [[Surakan Militia Volunteers]] counterattacked, they targeted the cruiser with their largest non-nuclear weapon dropped from a Pelican dropship, [[Grizzly]] tanks on the ground and eight merchant ships armed with point-defense guns. While none of the attacks penetrated ''Foebane's'' shields, they were a distraction as four more merchant ships in orbit shoved three half-mined asteroids at the cruiser while it was distracted.{{Ref/Reuse|HE}}

The plan worked: ''Foebane'' was left too distracted with the Suarkan ships to react to the asteroids until it was too late, with the rocks striking in quick succession. The first asteroid failed to penetrate the shields, but released megatons of kinetic energy against it, causing the shields, already under strain from the incessant barrage against it, to flicker. The second asteroid penetrated the cruiser's shields and exploded against the hull in a brilliantly white fireball. When the third asteroid struck, ''Foebane'' appeared to fold in midair, gushing blue and white flames and canted over as it dipped out towards the far edge of the crater it had dug. The merchant ships descended and continued firing upon ''Foebane'' which finally crumpled to the ground outside the city between Suarka and the rocky hills that led to the [[Uldt Desert]]. ''Foebane'' was left burning where it fell, effectively destroyed.{{Ref/Reuse|HE}}

On their way into the city, the destroyed cruiser was spotted by both [[Gray Team]] and Rojka who were impressed that the Suarkans had managed to take it down on their own.{{Ref/Reuse|HE}}
