==Overview==
==Overview==
===Roles and responsibilities===
For the Sangheili serving in the Banished, the position of warlord represents the most significant departure from the old [[Covenant]]'s traditional military structure. While Sangheili warlords typically serve as field commanders and generals in combat, they are described to be similar in role to that of a [[Kaidon]], the lord of a [[Sangheili]] [[keep]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} Although a warlord does not necessarily have to be a Kaidon, the few Kaidons willing to join the Banished despite its stigma, such as [[Thav 'Sebarim]],{{Ref/Game|Id=Target02|HINF|[[High Value Target]] dossier, Thav 'Sebarim}} are considered best suited for the position due to their ruling experience. A warlord commands hundreds of [[Sangheili Mercenary|mercenaries]] and [[Sangheili Enforcer|enforcers]] in a unified, holistic manner, and drives them to outperform all others in the Banished.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}
===History===
===History===
A number of Sangheili Warlords participated in the [[Battle for Zeta Halo]], where they commanded large numbers of troops, oversaw operations at certain bases, and guarded key [[Forerunner]] facilities. One of the most infamous of these Warlords was [[Chak 'Lok]], [[Escharum]]'s chief interrogator, who brutally tortured [[UNSC]] [[Prisoner of war|POWs]] at his [[Tower]]. On [[2560#May|May 28, 2560]], [[John-117]] stormed the Tower and slew Chak 'Lok, putting an end to the Warlord's reign of terror.{{Ref/Quest|HI|Lockdown|The Tower}} As he continued his campaign against the Banished on Zeta Halo, the Master Chief encountered other Sangheili Warlords.{{Ref/Quest|HI|Connections|Conservatory}}{{Ref/Quest|HI|Reformation|Nexus}}{{Ref/Quest|HI|Reckoning|[[The Road (level)|The Road]]}}

==In-game information==
==Gameplay==
Warlords are usually armed with [[Veporokk Workshop Ravager]]s, though they can swap to their [[energy sword]]s in close combat, especially when they have lost their shields and cloaked themselves in response. Like other Sangheili enemies, Warlords carry [[plasma grenade]]s. Warlords are often seen commanding large groups of low to high ranking [[Unggoy]], [[Kig-yar]], [[Jiralhanae]], and even other lower ranking [[Sangheili]].
