==History==
===Creation===
Janissary recuits were forcibly recuited as collateral for the debts of their parents. The recuits were then taken to [[New Tyne]] on [[Venezia]].{{Ref/Reuse|sonata}}

===Discovery and UNSC counter-operations===
During [[Operation: SONATA]], on [[2559#September|September 22, 2559]], [[UNSC]] [[Captain]] [[Veronica Dare]] would discover the existence of the program.{{Ref/Reuse|sonata}}

At some point following their discovery and before [[2560#March|March 3, 2560]], an operation on Venezia would result in the UNSC's acquistion of a set of ASSAILER-class armor. This armor would be transferred to [[ANVIL Station]] for study.{{Ref/Reuse|anvil}}

==Personnel==
===Recruits===
Dozens were recurited to the program. One such recuit, [[Callie Calder]], was only 15 years old. The others were varying ages relative to hers.{{Ref/Reuse|sonata}}

==Equipment==
Janissaries are known to use the [[ASSAILER-class armor]],{{Ref/Book|Id=anvil|[[Halo: Anvil Accord]]}} [[BOGGART-class armor]],{{Ref/Game|Id=Boggart|HINF|Armor customization (Halo Infinite)|Armor Hall|Detail=Boggart - Armor Kit Description|Quote=The Goblinstrike effort by Venezia makes use of Created technology stolen from Balaho to restart a Covenant factory satellite and manufacture Grunt-ish armor for augmented human mercenaries. Phew. Get all that? The BOGGART is the first result that didn't result in unnecessary fatalities from design defects. For Banished and independent Grunts it is also a friendly face in an unfriendly galaxy.

They provide the TASKMASTER suits for use by Banished mercenary commanders, while subtly probing their allies battle network for useful information.}}

==Roles==
While Janissaries allied with the Banished are rarely given with front-line roles, some of them take those roles as the quickest way to gain access to even more augmentation procedures.{{Ref/Game|Id=Assailer|HINF|Armor customization (Halo Infinite)|Armor Hall|Detail=Assailer - Helmet Description|Quote=Human janissaries allied with the Banished rarely take on front-line roles, but it is the quickest way to gain access to further augmentation.}}
