'''Jiralhanae Warlords''' are a class of [[Jiralhanae]] [[Jiralhanae | |||
'''Jiralhanae Warlords''' are a class of favored [[Jiralhanae]] [[Jiralhanae Captain|Captains]] and [[Jiralhanae Chieftain|Chieftains]] champions serving in the [[Banished]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22p427}}{{Ref/Reuse|PLH}} | |||
==Overview== | ==Overview== | ||
===Roles and responsibilities=== | |||
Jiralhanae Warlords are among the most fearsome infantry in the Banished forces and are promoted by [[Decimus]], and later [[Escharum]],{{Ref/Game|Id=iyh|HI|Audio log (Halo Infinite)#Outpost Intel 3|Banished Audio log|Detail=Outpost Intel #15 - In Your Honor}} for their raw strength, savage lust for battle, and the complete absence of mercy to serve as loyal agents positioned to intercede on the Banished leaders’ behalf to bring recalcitrant packs to heal and direct critical faction operations.{{Ref/Reuse|PLH}} If a Banished captain has been chosen and promoted for the lead of a [[clan]] or a [[legion]], they have earned the highly esteemed mantle of Warlord, operating directly under command of a [[War Chief]] or [[Warmaster]] [[Atriox]] himself.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22p427}} Warlords are powerful and skilled Jiralhanae veterans with and extraordinary strategic acumen that have been systematically tested in the rigors of combat over many years.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22p427}} The commitment of a clan is first to Atriox, even above the loyalty they must have for their own battle brothers.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22p427}} While the Jiralhanae who make up [[Atriox's Chosen]] share their leader's cunning, Decimus encourages more base traits in his warriors, chief among which is an unquenchable thirst for blood.{{Ref/Reuse|PLH}} | |||
Answerable only to [[Warmaster]] [[Atriox]] and the [[War Chief]], Warlords are no doubt feared by many lower-ranking Jiralhanae and hated by Banished [[Sangheili]] warriors, such as [[Let 'Volir]]’s [[Enduring Conviction|troops]], though none can deny the Warlords’ loyalty or violent proficiency in culling the Banished ranks of weaker links.{{Ref/Reuse|atw}}{{Ref/Game|Id=PLH|HW2|Part=Phoenix Logs|Detail=[[Phoenix Logs#Banished Units|Warlord]]}} | |||
===Organization=== | |||
Warlord role are typically held by [[Jiralhanae Captain|Captains]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22p427}} Although some Jiralhanae Warlords may be well rather higher-ranking [[Jiralhanae Chieftain|chieftains]]—including those led by Decimus' command during the [[Second Ark Conflict]]—in their own right, unlike traditional clans which had joined the Banished fully formed, warlords lead clans forged in the fires of battle explicitly for the Banished.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22p427}}{{Ref/Reuse|HW2}} | |||
===History=== | ===History=== | ||
{{ | A number of Warlord Chieftains led by Decimus were deployed during the Second Ark Conflict, including [[Pavium]], one of two leaders of the [[Clan of the Long Shields]] alongside [[Voridus]].{{Ref/Game|Id=HW2|HW2|Detail=Gameplay}} Several Warlord Captains and Chieftains under [[Escharum]] participated in the [[Battle for Zeta Halo]].{{Ref/Game|Id=Inf|Hi|Detail=[[Campaign]] gameplay}} | ||
==Equipment== | ==Equipment== | ||
{{ | Banished warlords have the privilege of tailoring their armor and equipment according to their own preference, but those recently appointed to this role are often dignified with a [[Ultra-class armor|silver armor]] that harkens back to the Covenant of an earlier age.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22p427}} This specific design actually predates both Banished and Covenant, and was worn by the most renowned pack leaders during the dark times of the [[First Immolation]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22p427}} Most notably, Pavium features his own unique Warlord power armor gifted by Decimus.{{Ref/Site|Id=back|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/back-mentality|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Back Mentality|D=22|M=8|Y=2021}} | ||
Jiralhanae Warlord Chieftains under Decimus' command within the core group of the Banished are armed with gravity hammers and are usually equipped with energy shields to supplement their already-heavy armor and hides.{{Ref/Reuse|PLH}} Those gravity hammers may be rather Warlord’s personally-fashioned unique gravity hammers, which are wielded by many prideful Jiralhanae chieftains who have forgotten which their work should be enriching, and have wound up on the receiving end of these gravity hammers.{{Ref/Reuse|PLH}} These modified gravity hammers emit a massive shockwave which damages and stuns all nearby ground units.{{Ref/Reuse|PLH}} Jiralhanae Warlord Captains under [[Escharum]] during [[Forerunner]] [[heatwave]]s, while their chieftain counterpart are armed with a gravity hammer, or even a [[Scrap Cannon]].{{Ref/Reuse|Inf}} | |||
