These Sangheili were once part of the artifact retrieval group led by [[Sesa 'Refumee]] on [[Threshold]]'s [[Threshold gas mine|gas mine]].

Although most lines of outside communications had been severed by 'Refumee when he came into contact with the Oracle, one Heretic Sangheili, [[Kola 'Baoth]]'s brother, succeeded in sending out scattered messages that detailed newly encountered truths.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-annual-achievements '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Canon Fodder - Annual Achievements'']</ref> Most, if not all, Heretics on the gas mine perished when the newly appointed [[Arbiter]] [[Thel 'Vadam]]ee [[Raid on the Threshold gas mine|assaulted]] the facility and plunged it down into the gas giant.{{Ref/Reuse|Oracle}}

==Equipment==
== Appearance ==
Heretic Elites do not wear helmets like their Covenant counterparts, but instead don breathing apparatus to assist in respiration on the Gas Mining facility. Heretic Elites also have four fins on the back of their armor, similar to the traditional armor seen on [[Ripa 'Moramee]]'s clan brothers in ''[[Halo Wars: Genesis]]''. Sesa 'Refumee does not share these fins, but instead has a jetpack on his back nearly identical to those used by [[Sangheili Ranger|Elite Rangers]] (''Halo 2'').

Heretic Elites can be found in both brown and gold armored variants, as well as the Heretic Leader's personal red-colored armor. Elite who wear gold armor are the equivalent of [[Elite Major]]s with more health and stronger shields, while those with brown armor seem similar to [[Elite Minor]]s.

*They are only seen in two ''Halo 2'' levels: [[The Arbiter]] and [[The Oracle]].
*A glitch causes the [[melee]] attacks of Heretic Sangheili to have little or no effect, unless they are wielding [[Type-1 Energy Weapon/Sword|Energy Swords]]. However, their melee attacks have a small chance of hitting when standing to the left of the Sangheili.

*A class of Elites known as "Heretics" appear in ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', but these are actually just Elites using human weapons, rather than rebels. They only appear in [[Firefight]].
