Jat was a [[Sangheili]] loyal to [[Rojka 'Kasaan]] who followed Rojka to [[Carrow]] after [[Glyke|their homeworld]] [[Operation: SUNSPEAR|was destroyed]].

The peace on Carrow was shattered in [[2558]] when [[Thars 'Sarov]] seized power for himself in Rak and began attempting to incite a war with the humans. Thars dispatched a death squad to [[Masov Oasis]] to slaughter the Sangheili there with human weapons and frame the crime upon the humans to incite violence against the people of Suraka.

Jat was eventually discovered by [[Ruha]], a member of the death squad and entered into battle with him, ultimately losing the fight. As Ruha prepared to execute Jat, they were interrupted by [[Dahlia]] who was awoken by the sounds of their fight and went to investigate, intervening as she saw Jat apparently asking for mercy, but could not tell his species in the dark. Dahlia threatened Ruha with an [[M295 DMR]], but hesitated to fire, resulting in him firing at her and missing, destroying Dahlia's [[M274 Mongoose|Mongoose]]. However, the distraction allowed Jat to recover and bisect his opponent | Jat was eventually discovered by [[Ruha]], a member of the death squad and entered into battle with him, ultimately losing the fight.

Terrified to discover that Jat was a | Terrified to discover that Jat was a Sangeheili, Dahlia threatened him with her rifle, but Jat did his best to be unthreatening to her, announcing that he owed Dahlia a debt for saving his life. Though reluctant to trust Jat despite his surprisingly human gestures due to all of the suffering she had suffered at the hands of the [[Covenant]], Dahlia requested a ride to [[Masov Oasis]], but Jat warned against it due to the threat she would face from Thars loyalists there. Seeing how determined she was despite the danger, Jat agreed to give Dahlia a ride and called Dahlia a credit to her bloodline for her bravery. Jat took Dahlia to the human trading post and warned her to stay close to other humans due to the dangers of Thars' forces. | ||
Later, as Thars' death squad began murdering Sangheili with human weapons, Jat unexpectedly came to the rescue of Dahlia, [[Greta]] and [[Paul des Hommes]] as they were being escorted by two Thars loyalists. With his [[active camouflage]] engaged, Jat attempted to ambush the two other Sangheili, but was sensed at the last moment. Jat was able to destroy the [[Type-25 plasma pistol|plasma pistol]] of one of the Sangheili before a punch from the other disrupted his active camouflage. Jat stabbed his armed opponent through the head before decapitating the other as he took the intact plasma pistol. | Later, as Thars' death squad began murdering Sangheili with human weapons, Jat unexpectedly came to the rescue of Dahlia, [[Greta]] and [[Paul des Hommes]] as they were being escorted by two Thars loyalists.

After rescuing the humans, Jat departed in his Spectre with Dahlia as Paul and Greta returned to their trading post, not trusting Jat enough to go with him. Fleeing the oasis, Jat explained the political situation between Rojka and Thars and his intention to return to Rojka and expose the death squad's actions so that the Surakans would not be blamed for the slaughter at the oasis and inflame tensions as Thars wanted. | After rescuing the humans, Jat departed in his Spectre with Dahlia as Paul and Greta returned to their trading post, not trusting Jat enough to go with him.

With his vehicle dead, Jat announced that they had six opponents left and removed a [[particle beam rifle]] for the Spectre and gave Dahlia the plasma pistol he'd taken off of the Sangheili he'd rescued her from. With more enemies approaching, Jat announced that they would be making a last stand which was their only option left. Jat admitted that Dahlia could try to flee, but warned her that she would be chased down relentlessly as Thars' forces could not risk any living witnesses, but together they could put up an honorable fight. Jat gave Dahlia a speech to encourage her to fight, recognizing Dahlia's bravery and unwillingness to go down easily all while firing on the Sangheili, destroying another Spectre and killing several enemies. | With his vehicle dead, Jat announced that they had six opponents left and removed a [[particle beam rifle]] for the Spectre and gave Dahlia the plasma pistol he'd taken off of the Sangheili he'd rescued her from.

With the firefight continuing, Dahlia chose to make a last stand with Jat and warned him of enemies above them on the canyon walls trying to get a better position. After Jat sniped an approaching enemy in the head, several Sangheili directly charged their position on foot. On Jat's signal, Dahlia opened fire on the approaching enemies and managed to wound one in the leg, but two Sangheili jumped over the Spectre and engaged Jat with in combat with their energy swords while the one Dahlia wounded moved to kill her after wounding Dahlia in the shoulder.

Despite putting up a good fight, Jat was finally overpowered by four Sanghelili just as Dahlia was about to be executed. In the face of death, Jat announced proudly to Dahlia that they had made their enemies bleed before they were taken down. | ||
Before Jat and Dahlia could be executed, a [[Surakan Militia Volunteers|Surakan Militia]] [[Pelican]] unexpectedly came to their rescue after Paul and Greta had alerted the militia and they had seen the smoke from the fight. The Pelican's cannons eliminated all of the death squad, saving Jat and Dahlia. However, as the militia members searched the bodies, one found Jat still alive and mistook him for an enemy. Despite Dahlia's attempt to stop the man, he killed Jat with a single shot from his battle rifle. Devastated, Dahlia cradled Jat's body and raged at the militiamen for killing her friend. However, they were unrepentant, only seeing Jat as an enemy that was responsible for destroying human worlds. | Before Jat and Dahlia could be executed, a [[Surakan Militia Volunteers|Surakan Militia]] [[Pelican]] unexpectedly came to their rescue after Paul and Greta had alerted the militia and they had seen the smoke from the fight.
