'''Levu ‘Mdama''' is a [[Sangheili]] and the [[Kaidon]] of the [[State of Mdama]] during the post-[[Human-Covenant War]] era.

==Biography==
Levu was seen as a traditionalist, but with eccentric tastes - [[Jul ‘Mdama]] suspected that a [[M12 Force Application Vehicle|Warthog]] at the kaidon assembly belonged to him. He had a large tiered chamber at the heart of [[Levu 'Mdama's keep|his keep]], the kind in which ancient Sangheili warlords had once held court.{{Ref/Reuse|chap 2}} He assembled the elders of his state to hear [[Arbiter]] [[Thel 'Vadam]]'s proposal of peace with humanity, silencing them when they mocked 'Vadam's "love" of [[human]]s.

Later, in a private meeting with Jul, Levu admitted that he did not like humans, feeling them to be "devious creatures" who represented a threat to the Sangheili, but with whom coexistence could be achieved through mutual threat. As a pragmatist, however, he knew that in the aftermath of the [[Great Schism]] the Sangheili did not have the capability to wipe out humanity cleanly. As such, the most pertinent course of action was temporary peace and a strategy of containment.<ref>'''[[Halo: Glasslands]]''', ''page 88''</ref>

Soon after, Levu left to aid [[Relon]]'s keep when it came under attack. He arrived only to find the hanged mutilated corpses of [[Relon]] and his brother [[Jalam]]. He saw the handwritten warning that was hung around Relon's neck and informed Jul about the savage monks known as the [[Servants of the Abiding Truth]]. He then ordered his aide, [[Thun]], to cut down the bodies and cover them up.<ref>'''[[Halo: Glasslands]]''', ''page 95''</ref>

By [[2558]], Mdama State apparently supported the new Covenant's cause during the ensuing [[Blooding Years]] with [[Mdama keep]] providing the faction with [[Type-1 energy sword|energy swords]] that burned less intensely and did not cauterize.{{Ref/Level|H5|Alliance}}
