'''Officer''' was an [[Obedientiary]] [[Covenant rank structure|military rank]] held by [[Sangheili]] forces within the [[Covenant military|armed forces]] of the [[Covenant]] empire.{{Ref/Site|URL=http://halo.bungie.net/projects/reach/images.aspx?c=51&page=1|Site=Bungie.net|Page=Halo: Reach Intel - Concept Art|Detail=File name <code>ReachConcept_EliteOfficer.jpg</code>|D=13|M=10|Y=2014}}{{Ref/Site|URL=http://halo.bungie.net/projects/reach/images.aspx?c=53&page=1|Site=Bungie.net|Page=Halo: Reach Intel - Renders|Detail=File name <code>Reach_E310_EliteOfficer.jpg</code>|D=13|M=10|Y=2014}}{{Ref/Site|Id=GC|URL=http://www.spartangames.co.uk/new-halo-ground-command-blisters|Site=Spartan Games|Page=New Halo: Ground Command Blisters|D=25|M=08|Y=2017 | '''Officer''' was an [[Obedientiary]] [[Covenant rank structure|military rank]] held by [[Sangheili]] forces within the [[Covenant military|armed forces]] of the [[Covenant]] empire.{{Ref/Site|URL=http://halo.bungie.net/projects/reach/images.aspx?c=51&page=1|Site=Bungie.net|Page=Halo: Reach Intel - Concept Art|Detail=File name <code>ReachConcept_EliteOfficer.jpg</code>|D=13|M=10|Y=2014}}{{Ref/Site|URL=http://halo.bungie.net/projects/reach/images.aspx?c=53&page=1|Site=Bungie.net|Page=Halo: Reach Intel - Renders|Detail=File name <code>Reach_E310_EliteOfficer.jpg</code>|D=13|M=10|Y=2014}}{{Ref/Site|Id=GC|URL=http://www.spartangames.co.uk/new-halo-ground-command-blisters|Site=Spartan Games|Page=New Halo: Ground Command Blisters|D=25|M=08|Y=2017}} The title exists as a class byproduct of the [[Major (Covenant)|Major]] rank, and has few real practical differences beyond the more decorative ceremonial [[Officer harness|battle armour]] the officers employ. Like Majors, Officers report to an on-site [[Evocati]] official, and may be charged with the command of [[lances]] consisting of lesser-ranked [[Sangheili]], [[Kig-Yar]] and [[Unggoy]].{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc11|Enc11|Page=135}} Unlike Major, the Officer role has only ever been seen observed in use by Sangheili troops.{{Ref/Game|Id=Reach|HR|[[Elite Officer]] in-game enemy}} | ||
As a byproduct of the Major role, Officers wear more ornamental armor, which functions with no substantial differences to Major Sangheili equipped with the standard combat harness.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc11}} The officer harness features much more pronounced shoulder pauldrons and a more elaborate helmet with a backward-swept spike in the center.{{Ref/Reuse|Reach}} The design is more standardized than that of ordinary Majors, varying only in color. One color scheme is blood red with a golden tinge and brass-colored highlights;{{Ref/Reuse|Reach}} another is matte burgundy with white accents on the arms and legs, the collar, and the helmet.{{Ref/Game|HCEA|Elite Officer in-game enemy}} | As a byproduct of the Major role, Officers wear more ornamental armor, which functions with no substantial differences to Major Sangheili equipped with the standard combat harness.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc11}} The officer harness features much more pronounced shoulder pauldrons and a more elaborate helmet with a backward-swept spike in the center.{{Ref/Reuse|Reach}} The design is more standardized than that of ordinary Majors, varying only in color.

Elite Officers were introduced into the ''Halo'' series in ''[[Halo: Reach]]''. In-game, Officers serve as the replacement for the series' classic [[Elite Major]]s, though have no particular gameplay differences outside of cosmetic changes. In ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary]]'', Officers were used to replace the Majors in the game, albeit with a crimson red colouration as opposed to ''Reach''{{'}}s bronze orange. In ''Anniversary''{{'}}s [[Library (feature)|Library]] function, these elites are still identified as Majors. | Elite Officers were introduced into the ''Halo'' series in ''[[Halo: Reach]]''.
