==Biography==
===Serving the Covenant===
Parg Vol was born to [[Clan Vol]] on [[2481|July 24, 2481]] on [[Malurok]], a [[Sangheili]] base world. Vol served the [[Covenant|Covenant Empire]] as a [[field master]] within the Covenant's guard. In [[2552#November|November 2552]], the [[Great Schism]] broke out after the [[Hierarchs]] betrayed the Sangheili. While holding a deep hatred of the [[Jiralhanae]] and [[San'Shyuum]], he also opposed [[Arbiter]] [[Thel Vadam]]'s alliance with the [[human]]s, believing the Sangheili should have wiped out humanity completely as well.{{Ref/Reuse|VIS}}
 
===Draetheus V===
After the [[Human-Covenant War]], Vol enlisted with [[Merg Vol]] when his brother's [[Merg Vol's Covenant|Covenant remnant]] launched an [[Battle of Draetheus V|assault]] on [[Draetheus V]] in [[2554]]. While Merg commanded the attack on the [[Forerunner]]-created [[moon]] of [[X50]], Parg Vol served as the commanding officer of the Covenant forces on Draetheus V. Seeking a way to X50, [[SPARTAN-IV program|Spartan]] [[Sarah Palmer]] stole Vol's personal {{Pattern|R'shwupa|Phantom}} from his camp while the Sangheili was away.{{Ref/Reuse|hsa21}} As a [[combat engineer]] bypassed the Phantom's security protocols, Vol returned to his camp and realized Palmer's intent. Vol ordered a full frontal assault on Palmer's position, including {{Pattern|Zurdo|Wraith}} bombardment. Despite his efforts, Palmer succeeded in hijacking the Phantom and traveling to X50,{{Ref/Level|Id=hsa22|SA|Mission 22: The Scorching of the Thicket|The Scorching of the Thicket}} where she assassinated Merg Vol. The battle was soon lost for the Covenant and the remnant fell apart.{{Ref/Level|Id=hsa25|SA|Mission 25: Battle for the Moon|Battle for the Moon}}
 
After the battle, Vol worked in arms deals and hit contracts before consolidating a small task force under [[Jul 'Mdama]]'s [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|Covenant]], joining solely due to his hatred of humanity and seeking revenge for his brother's demise.{{Ref/Reuse|VIS}}{{Ref/Reuse|CF156}}
 
===Requiem Campaign===
In [[2558|February 2558]], he led Covenant ground forces during the early stages of the [[Requiem Campaign]],{{Ref/Reuse|VIP}} serving as a [[Commander (Covenant)|commander]].{{Ref/Reuse|VIS}} Soon after securing a foothold on [[Requiem]], the [[United Nations Space Command]] learned of Vol's location. He had been overseeing a supply dump of captured UNSC matériel in the "[[Quarry]]." [[Fireteam Crimson]] was deployed to assassinate Vol, though the Sangheili escaped aboard a [[Ru'swum-pattern Phantom|Phantom]] as his forces engaged the Spartans.{{Ref/Reuse|VIP}}
 
As Fireteam Crimson were extracted from the supply dump, Vol launched an attack on the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]]'s [[Galileo Base]].{{Ref/Reuse|VIP}} He was sighted by [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marine]] sentries during the attack, though he again escaped shortly after Crimson's arrival.{{Ref/SpOps|Catherine|Galileo}} UNSC forces eventually tracked him a Forerunner structure called "[[the Gate]]" which had recently been retaken from the UNSC. Now-[[Spartan Commander]] Sarah Palmer redeployed Fireteam Crimson to kill the terrorist. After [[Assassination of Parg Vol|fighting through local Covenant forces]] of roughly company strength, the Spartans killed Parg Vol and eliminated all remaining hostiles with help from [[F-41 Broadsword]]s deployed by the ''Infinity''.{{Ref/Reuse|trip}}
 
==Personality and traits==
Parg Vol was a ruthless [[Sangheili]] warrior and [[terrorist]]. With the outbreak of the [[Great Schism]], Vol came to despise the [[San'Shyuum]] and the [[Jiralhanae]] for their treachery. However, he also opposed [[Arbiter]] [[Thel 'Vadam]]'s alliance with [[human]]ity, believing the Sangheili should wipe out the humans entirely as well. Though Vol was never particularly fervent in following the [[Covenant religion]], he joined [[Jul 'Mdama]]'s [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|reformed Covenant]], as his volatile hatred for humans aligned extremely well with 'Mdama's cause and because he saw 'Mdama's faction as the most effective asset to avenge his brother Merg Vol.{{Ref/Reuse|VIS}}{{Ref/Reuse|CF156}}
 
==Equipment==
Parg Vol wore a [[Sangheili Warrior#Armor|Warrior-class combat harness]], featuring an elaborate helmet, high-framed greaves, and raised-claw armor that was largely ornamental. Vol often carried a heavy weapon for protection, such as the {{Pattern|Pez'tk|fuel rod gun}}.{{Ref/Reuse|VIS}}
 
==Production notes==
It is possible to complete ''[[Catherine/Hunting Trip|Hunting Trip]]'' without killing Vol, although he has to be protected and forced into cover when the airstrike happens.
 
The "Parg Vol" [[Nameplates/Halo: The Master Chief Collection|nameplate]] unlockable in ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]'' claims in its description that Parg is the brother of [[Merg Vol]] and (jokingly) another sibling named "Blarg". Parg and Merg Vol were eventually confirmed to be brothers on Canon Fodder #156: ''Fleetcom Fiction''.{{Ref/Reuse|CF156}}
