'''[[Commander (Covenant)|Commander]] Soha 'Rolamee''' was a [[Sangheili]] noble and an officer of the [[Fleet of Particular Justice]]. He served on the fleet's [[Council of Masters]] during the [[Battle of Installation 04]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=TF3|HTF|Chapter=3}}


==Biography==
'''Soha 'Rolamee''' was an [[Elite]] member of the [[High Council]] and member of the [[Council of Masters]] in the [[Covenant]]. He outranked the [[Special Operations Elite]] [[Zuka 'Zamamee]] by at least two levels. <ref>''[[Halo: The Flood]]'', page 95</ref> He was a member of the Council, so he would have fallen under the rank of [[Councilor]].
'Rolamee had an office aboard the {{Pattern|Ket|battlecruiser}} ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]''. He was subordinate to the [[Prophet of Stewardship]], the [[Minor Prophet]] assigned to the Fleet of Particular Justice. 'Rolamee was present when the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} crashed on the surface of [[Halo Array|Halo]] [[Installation 04]] on [[2552#September|September 19, 2552]]. During the ensuing [[Battle of Installation 04|ground campaign]] on the ring, 'Rolamee worked as part of the commmand council coordinating Covenant forces. Early in the conflict, he was part of a meeting with [[Special Operations Officer]] [[Zuka 'Zamamee]], in which 'Zamamee requested 'Rolamee's approval to hunt [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartan]] [[John-117]].{{Ref/Reuse|TF3}} At first 'Rolamee was hesitant and refused to grant 'Zamamee permission.{{Ref/Reuse|TF3}} However, he acquiesced after the Spartan [[Raid on the Truth and Reconciliation|raided]] ''Truth and Reconciliation'', killing hundreds of Covenant troops and rescuing the human commanding officer, Captain [[Jacob Keyes]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=TF4|HTF|Chapter=4}}
 
In the [[Age of Reclamation|9th Age of Reclamation]], he was one of the members of the Council that were on [[Installation 04]] when the ''[[UNSC Pillar of Autumn]]'' crashed on it. He used the ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]'' as his office, but was still apparently subordinate to a Minor [[Prophet]] Council member who was also there. <ref name="zam"/>
 
He was the one [[Zuka 'Zamamee]] went to to request approval to hunt the [[Master Chief]]. <ref name="zam"/> At first 'Rolamee was hesitant and refused to allow it, but after the [[John-117|Master Chief]] raided the very same vessel, 'Rolamee then authorized it.<ref>''[[Halo: The Flood]]'', page 123</ref>


When the [[Flood]] was discovered 'Rolamee apparently took charge of the containment procedures. When these attempts failed and the Flood began spreading uncontrollably across the ring, the Prophet of Stewardship had 'Rolamee beheaded. Stewardship used 'Rolamee's severed head to convey "the price of failure" to 'Zamamee.{{Ref/Novel|Id=TF7|HTF|Chapter=7}}
When the [[Flood]] was discovered, 'Rolamee apparently took charge of ensuring that they were contained. When these attempts failed and the Flood began spreading uncontrollably throughout the [[Installation 04|ring]], the minor [[Prophet]] had 'Rolamee beheaded and showed his head to [[Zuka 'Zamamee]] as "the price of failure." <ref>''[[Halo: The Flood]]'', page 178</ref> It is highly possible that this was part of the plan by the Prophets to replace the Elites with [[Brutes]].


==Personality and traits==
== Sources ==
Despite his senior officer status, 'Rolamee was generally a polite and respectful individual, even to his inferiors. Upon initially meeting Zuka 'Zamamee, he inquired how Zuka was healing after his wounds sustained in the [[Battle over Installation 04|boarding]] of ''Pillar of Autumn''; once the council made its decision not to allow 'Zamamee to pursue John-117, 'Rolamee tried to soften the blow by altering the message to note that the council found 'Zamamee "far too valuable" to waste on the task. Despite this, Zuka was able to tell that that sentence had been added by 'Rolamee out of kindness.{{Ref/Reuse|TF3}} However, despite this kindness, 'Rolamee did not extend this to the [[Unggoy]] serving under his command - with both 'Zamamee and 'Rolamee forgetting to offer [[Yayap]] a seat in their second meeting.{{Ref/Reuse|TF4}}
