|rank=[[Commander (Covenant)|Commander]]

'''G'torik 'Klemmee''' is a [[Sangheili]] [[Commander (Covenant)|Commander]] who served with the [[Covenant]], until the [[Great Schism]].<ref name="bc190">'''[[Halo: Broken Circle]]''', ''pages 190-193''</ref>

[[Commander (Covenant)|Commander]] G'torik 'Klemmee was allegedly the nephew of [[Sangheili Councilor|High Councilor]] [[Torg 'Gransamee]], although it was very likely that he was in fact the latter's son. G'torik and Torg formed a friendship and close alliance with [[Zo Resken]], the Prophet of Clarity. On [[2552#November|November 2, 2552]], Torg and G'torik met with Resken in the [[Hanging Gardens]] of ''[[High Charity]]''. The three conversed about [[Battle of Installation 05|recent events]], and the Prophet confirmed the Sangheili's suspicions: the [[Prophet of Truth|High Prophet of Truth]] allowed [[SPARTAN-II]] [[John-117]] to kill the [[Prophet of Regret|High Prophet of Regret]] by calling off the latter's [[Kez'katu-pattern Phantom|reinforcements]]. As the discussion ended, Resken agreed to keep them informed on the conflicts between the [[Hierarchs]].{{Ref/Reuse|bc190}} Later that day, Resken had eavesdropped on a conversation between Truth and [[Tartarus]], and learned that the two were plotting to replace the Sangheili with the Jiralhanae. Following through with his promise, Resken met with G'torik in the [[Chancel of Recovery]]. Resken warned G'torik of Truth's intentions and advised him to only tell certain, high-ranking Sangheili that would keep the secret of what G'torik had just learned.<ref name="bc211">'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''pages 211-216''</ref> Following the [[Changing of the Guard]], Torg had charged G'torik with being his personal protector, as the High Councilor did not trust the newly appointed [[Jiralhanae Honor Guardsmen]].<ref name="bc218">'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''pages 218-222''</ref>

On [[2552#November|November 3, 2552]], the Sangheili High Councilors and their bodyguards, including G'torik, traveled to the [[Control Room (Installation 05)|Control Room]] of [[Installation 05]] to prepare it for the [[activation index]]. Although the Sangheili were confused by the lack of the [[San'Shyuum]] [[San'Shyuum High Councilor|High Councilors]]' presence, they continued to wait patiently. After some time, a heavily armed contingent of [[Jiralhanae]] led by [[Jiralhanae Captain|Captain]] [[Melchus]] entered the Control Room. Suddenly, following orders from the High Prophet of Truth, Melchus charged at the Sangheili and his Jiralhanae followed suit. An engagement broke out between the two species, with the outnumbered Sangheili being backed into a corner. Insisting for Torg to stay behind him, G'torik charged at Melchus himself, hoping that the Jiralhanae would become confused without their leader. The captain easily destroyed G'torik's [[Okarda'phaa-pattern plasma rifle|plasma rifle]] with his [[Gravity hammer (fiction)|gravity hammer]], and briefly incapacitated the Sangheili. As G'torik picked up two [[Type-1 energy sword|energy swords]], he witnessed Melchus killing Torg. G'torik and the other surviving Sangheili charged at the captain. The captain swiftly killed the other Sangheili, while G'torik managed to slash Melchus with the energy swords several times. Finally receiving minor wounds from G'torik, Melchus slammed his hammer into the ground and used its gravitational-force shock wave ability to knock G'torik off the bridge of the Control Room. G'torik's fall was broken by a pile of dead Sangheili, but he was rendered unconscious.{{Ref/Reuse|bc218}}

Surviving the massacre, G'torik found an opportunity to escape and stowed away on a [[Kez'katu-pattern Phantom|Phantom]]. Eventually returning to ''High Charity'', G'torik met with [[Crun 'Brinsmee]] and [[Tul 'Imjanamee]].<ref>'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''page 243''</ref> Meanwhile, the conversation between Resken, Torg, and G'torik that took place the previous day had been recorded by spy probes. The Covenant intentionally allowed G'torik to warn other Sangheili about the San'Shyuum's possible betrayal.<ref>'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''page 235''</ref> When the [[Prophet of Exquisite Devotion]] and Melchus brought Resken before them, they attempted to get him to kill captured Sangheili. G'torik, Crun, and Tul hacked into one of Exquisite Devotion's spy probes and listened in on the conversation between Resken and Exquisite Devotion. Resken refused to kill the Sangheili, leading to Exquisite Devotion ordering his execution. As Resken was being led away by two Jiralhanae, the three Sangheili ambushed them. G'torik killed one with his energy sword, while Crun killed the other with a [[Anskum-pattern plasma grenade|plasma grenade]]. The group escaped through an unstable maintenance room, where Exquisite Devotion and two [[Mgalekgolo]] caught up to them. The Sangheili refused to surrender to them and instead, G'torik and Crun fired upon transmutation cubes built into pipes and a series of conduits. The cubes and pipes exploded, killing the Mgalekgolo and knocking Exquisite Devotion to the ground. G'torik charged at the Prophet and cut him into three pieces with his sword. With the help of [[Huragok]] [[Sluggish Drifter]], the group escaped into a small maintenance vessel. The ship was piloted out of ''High Charity'' and into a small supply ship, ''[[Journey's Sustenance]]'', captained by [[Shipmaster]] [[D'ero 'S'bud]]ee. Once they were secured in the supply ship's hangar, they escaped into [[slipstream space|slipspace]].<ref name="bc242">'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''pages 242-251''</ref>
