What if the Sharquoi isn't a sentient race. What if its' like the Rancor from Star Wars. They bring it in when its' close quarters and it will wreak havoc and extreme destruction. --File:Final Goji.jpg|30px]] [[User:Lordofmonsterisland| <font color="green">Lordofmonsterisland]]</font>[[User talk:Lordofmonsterisland| <font color="green">"Roar to me"</font>]] 22:19, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

It isn't possible for them to be Engineers either because by their very nature they are fragile, float on gas sacs, and don't have eyes. The top-left form can't be engineer because it is large, hulking, and dangerous. It might be the Halo form of Drinol, modified to fit Halo canon, but most certainly not an engineer.

== Should it be deleted? ==
I think we should delete this page as it's only ever mentioned once, there is nothing said about it, it isn't in any of the games or books, and Bungie haven't released any information on it. As of this, I think it should be deleted.[[User: Thunderstream328|<font color="#4682B4">Thunderstream328</font>]] File:Thunderstream328.jpg|15px]] <sub>[[User talk: Thunderstream328|<font color="#00BFFF">Here me rawr</font>]]</sub> <sub> [http://halopedian.com/Special:Contributions/Thunderstream328 <font color="1E90FF">Stuff I've done</font>]</sub> 15:58, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Any chance it coould be the skirmisher, just saying... [[User talk:Unsunghero10|=P]] 02:03, January 22, 2010 (UTC)
No. The Sharquoi is dangerous. Nearly the exact oppisit of a skirmisher. [[User talk:Jedizora|Jedizora]] 10:51, 21 May 2011 (EDT)
== Very Fricken Dangerous ==
By the way the Sangheili mentioned the Sharquoi, I would think it's some kind of weapon that could destroy entire groups of stars. Very fricken dangerous. [[User talk:Liquid Ink|Liquid Ink]] 10:23, March 5, 2010 (UTC)
==Canon Status==
Okay, so with this [https://twitter.com/game_fabricator/status/297177431750610944 Tweet: ''You mean what we used to call the Drinol?'']  we've now confirmed that "Sharquoi" and "[[Drinol]]" are one and the same. That being said, the language of the tweet is somewhat ambiguous. "What we used to call the Drinol" could mean "we called it Sharquoi before we changed it to Drinol," or alternatively "that thing we used to call 'the Drinol' before changing it to Sharquoi." Personally, I think he means the former.
So that means the chronology is:
# In ''Halo 2'' production they created a beast called the Sharquoi and wrote about in [[Conversations from the Universe]]
# At some point they changed its name to Drinol, but didn't change its mention in Conversations from the Universe.
# The Drinol was later cut from the game entirely.
Unless I'm very much mistaken, this would make the Sharquoi deleted material, and therefore non-canon. It got a vague one-word mention in ''Halo 2'' bonus material, and hasn't even been mentioned, let alone appeared, in any of the subsequent games, novels, comics, or indeed any piece of ''Halo'' media. As Marcus Lehto said "There's a reason he never made it into the game." He sucked, he got cut, he's non-canon.--[[File:Emblem 1.jpg|20px]][[User:Rusty-112|<span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:13pt;color:blue;">''' Rusty '''</span><span style="font-size:13pt;color:red;">'''- '''</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:13pt;color:blue;">'''112 '''</span>]] 20:42, 1 February 2013 (EST)
:I'd say to use Sharquoi as the actual name, given that it appears on an actual canon document. Since it appears in Conversations, that means Sharquoi still do exist in the ''Halo'' universe, just that they were never deployed like the Covenant planned to. As for its second name "Drinol", one could speculate that Drinol would have been the human term for it, and Sharquoi is the Sangheili name, just like with Hunter and Mgalekgolo or Elite and Sangheili.

:I would think Drinol was planned to be used in ''Halo'' and changed to Sharquoi in ''Halo 2'' before it got cut again. Bungie's O' Brave New World ViDoc did show us the Drinol as an actual character object in the third-person shooter phase of Halo. With that being said, I suggest merging Drinol into Sharquoi (along with the information in the former article).— <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span>  21:35, 1 February 2013 (EST)
Halo Waypoint confirmed its canon and may appear in future media in an info dump. --Sam Gall
