'''Kwassass''' was | '''Kwassass''' was a [[Covenant]] [[Grunt]] stationed on the [[Covenant supercarrier]] ''[[Sublime Transcendence]]'' in [[2552]]. | ||
==History== | |||
During his early life on [[Balaho]], he developed a fear and hatred of the cold, as he saw many friends and family freeze to death. He was in charge of the maintenance on Subdeck K.<ref>[[Halo:Ghosts of Onyx]] pg. 236</ref> He had training in the interpretation of human speech. | |||
Subsequent to [[The Battle of Reach]], the ''[[Sublime Transcendence]]'' extracted mining equipment from [[Reach]] after the Covenant tried to excavate [[CASTLE Base]]. The equipment was then placed on Subdeck K and it became Kwassass' responsibility to repair and refit it. | |||
Several months later, as the ship was over [[Joyous Exultation]] with the rest of the [[Combined Fleet of Righteous Purpose]], Kwassass went searching for rumored pods of [[benzene]] (considered to be a recreational drug by Grunts) amongst a bunch of equipment being studied by [[Engineers]] and discovered a [[NOVA]] bomb. The control panel for it became detached, but Kwassass managed to activate a recording of a threat from [[Admiral Whitcomb]] without any harm to the vessel or the Fleet. After listening to it several times, he had a vague understanding of what it meant, though he did not comprehend the message fully. However, the Control Panel's power went out, sparking an interest in the nearby [[Engineers]] to fix it and give it power. | |||
Kwassass was the only individual near the [[NOVA]] bomb to recognize the threat and tried to remove the panel to deactivate the bomb again, but was unable to get past the [[Engineers]] that had clustered around it before the bomb detonated. This destroyed the ''[[Sublime Transcendence]]'' (and may or may not have killed [[Xytan 'Jar Wattinree]]). His final thoughts give some insight on the NOVA bomb ''"There was a beautiful light, and more glorious heat than he'd ever felt before..."''<ref>[[Halo:Ghosts of Onyx]] pg. 244</ref> | |||
Kwassass | ==Trivia== | ||
*Having eight letters, Kwassass bears the longest known Grunt name. | |||
*He often traded captured [[Human]] tapes with other members of the crew. | |||
*It seems that he and other Grunts enjoy games and gambling. | |||
