'''Oathsworn''' is the name bestowed upon numerous custom-crafted shotguns. At least one of these shotguns was a modified [[M45 shotgun|M45D shotgun]] and was used by [[Kelly-087]] in late [[2558#October|2558]].<ref name="H5">'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'''</ref><ref name="BYRCP1">[https://web.archive.org/web/20160413030033/https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/halo-5-guardians-building-your-req-collection-part-1 '''Halo Waypoint''' - ''Building Your REQ Collection: Part 1'']</ref>

The ''Oathsworn'' is an example of personalized equipment utilized by the [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartan-IIs]],{{Ref/Reuse|BYRCP1}} specifically [[Kelly-087]].{{Ref/Reuse|H5}} Many ''Oathsworn'' shotguns have existed over the years, with each being created prior to another mission after the previous ''Oathsworn'' had been lost or abandoned by Kelly on the battlefield. While each version of the weapon has its slight differences, the markings have remained the same for years. The words Kelly whispers as she rebuilds and tunes each shotgun change every time, but the intent behind them remains the same.{{Ref/Reuse|BYRCP1}}

The ''Oathsworn'' is a [[Mythic weapon|mythic]] weapon in ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'' available as an Ultra Rare Level 5 [[Requisition system|REQ]] that grants 150 REQ Points when sold. As a slightly upgraded version of the ''Lawgiver'', the ''Oathsworn'' has increased damage, accuracy, and rate of fire compared to the normal shotgun, features slightly more range and accuracy over the ''Lawgiver'', and increases the user's movement speed while the weapon is equipped. As the weapon has a built-in Speed Boost, users of ''Oathsworn'' receive white auras and highlights, making them more easily visible on the battlefield.{{Ref/Reuse|BYRCP1}}

In the campaign, the ''Oathsworn'' can be equipped only if Kelly is selected by a player in [[cooperative play]]. Because of this, the ''Oathsworn'' is the only special weapon in the game that cannot be used by the player in the solo campaign. The campaign rendition of the ''Oathsworn'' has the Speed Boost removed and is exactly identical performance-wise to a standard Shotgun, including the strong vertical recoil.
