The '''Mark of Shame''' is a brand given to those who have either disgraced or turned away from the [[Covenant]]. The Mark of Shame is permanently imprinted onto the bare chest of the disgraced being via a special branding iron. After being branded with the Mark of Shame, the being is executed soon thereafter out of sheer humility.<ref name="cairo">'''Halo 2''', campaign level, ''[[Cairo Station]]''</ref>
