| | I don't think the pages should be merged, since the Heretic and Separatist pages discuss sufficiently different factions. The Heretics' motivation is religious, a crisis of faith if you will. The Separatists' motives are more political; the Elites' demotion in favor of the Brute caste, along with the assassination of Elite councillors by the Brutes help spark the fighting. The two factions are also active in different periods of ''Halo 2'': the Heretics are defeated before the [[Civil War of the Covenant]] really begins.

| Every single Sangheili left the Covenant during the great schism. Weather they became part of Jul's Covenant Remnant or Arbiter's Swords of Sangheilios, all Sangheili ended up fighting against the Jiralhanae and San Shyuum during the great schism.
| | I also agree. The Heretic movement ended with the Heretic leader's death. The Seperatists are a result of a direct civil war within the Covenant political structure, hence why Brutes, Drones, Jackals, and Prophets are now against Elites, Grunts, and Hunters. A merger would be a mistake. Also, much of the Seperatists is speculation since by the end of the game, the movement is just starting. --[[User:CrzyAznSprtn|CrzyAznSprtn]] 13:01, 9 August 2006 (UTC) |

| It would have been impossible for Sangheili to remain part of the Covenant Empire or Loyalists during the Great schism because if they had stayed, the Jiralhane would have massacared them. Truth ordered the Jiralhane to kill all the Sangheili, they were all ultimately forced out.
| | == Covenant Separatists not the same as Heretics == |
| | I have been reading the [[Heretic]], [[Covenant Separatist]] articles along with the one about that famous [[Imperial Admiral]] and it seems that the [[Elites]] are against [[Human]]s yet some points say that they are allies. So perhaps it should be noted that while some of the Elites have sided with the [[Arbiter]], others have decided to go against both sides? [[User:Darth Batrus]] |

| :The idea of the Elites being "separatists" is a misconception we've been perpetuating for years now. The term originally came from the problem of what to call them, and I vaguely remember it was inspired by the Separatists in Star Wars, for reasons that elude me. The Arbiter, in Halo 3, makes it explicitly clear that he still considers himself "Covenant," and that it's a war for control of its territory, materiel and people rather than a war of secession.
| | can some one expand this page with pictures of variours elites hunters and grunts from halo two levels [[Gravemind]], [[Uprising]], [[The Great Journey]] and [[High Charity]] |
| :The idea that the Elites ''left'' the Covenant is another misconception that's been circulating for a long time - the Elite Councillors ''threatened'' to resign, in protest at the changing of the guard. They never got the chance. Post-war, it's clear that the Swords of Sanghelios is a different entity to the Covenant, in the same way that the Russian Federation is the successor state to the Soviet Union.

| ===Are we calling the group of Elites (All Elites) that left the Covenant during the Great Schism "Swords of Sanghelios"?===
| | Kk it'll be much apreshiated [[User:Kami-Sama]] |
|
| |
|
| The whole "Separatist" name wasn't my question, and we kinda got off topic. My question is: because all Elites left the Covenant during the Great Schism, and Halopedia is calling this splinter group the Swords of Sanghelios, does that mean all Elites are technically Swords of Sanghelios (including Elites who started neo Covenants like Jul 'Mdama and Telcam?)? I think Halopedia is right because, when Truth started the Great Schism, it was ''all Elites and their followers'' against ''Truth, the Brutes, and their followers''. Because all the Elites left the Covenant (or were forced out) during the Schism, that would include Jul' Mdama, Telcam, etc. '''So essentially the story is: All Elites leave the Covenant under the banner of Swords of Sanghelios. The Elites team up with humanity and win the war. After the war ends some of these Elites then leave the Swords of Sanghelios. These Elites who left the initial breakaway faction (Swords of Sanghelios) then proceed form their own factions such as Jul 'Mdama's Covenant.''' Is this correct or not?
| | When are these pics going to be added [[User:Kami-Sama]] |
|
| |
|
| All I know with certainty is that ALL Elites left the Covenant during the Great Schism. And even if some didn't want to leave and wanted to stay with Truth (for whatever crazy reason), they would have been killed as Truth ordered the Brutes to execute any Elite in sight. So the entirety of the Sangheili species was forced out of the Covenant when the Great Schism started following the Changing of the Guard.

| :All Sangheili left the Covenant during the Great Schism. In the civil war, several factions were formed. First, we had Xytan 'Jar Wattinree's alliance, but that was destroyed. Then, Thel and Rtas led all the remaining Sangheili at Installation 05 and High Charity to combat the Covenant and Flood, as well as allying with humanity. For the remainder of the war, most Sangheili seemingly aligned themselves with Thel and Rtas or didn't intervene, though a majority of the forces the two commanded came from Installation 05 and High Charity. At some point after the Covenant War (the Swords of Sanghelios did ''not'' exist in an official capacity during the Covenant War), the Arbiter formally established a government-esque faction to govern Sanghelios and allied colonies (this faction being the Swords). At this point, with the Arbiter announcing that he would continue to ally with the UEG, some Sangheili disagreed with his views and formed/joined their own factions (such as Jul 'Mdama). However, the Swords of Sanghelios does not encompass all UEG-allied Sangheili. We know from ''Hunt the Truth'' that some clans formed treaties with the UEG that are not a part of the Swords of Sanghelios. --[[User:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">'''NightHammer'''</span>]]''<sup>[[User talk:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(talk)</span>]]</sup><sup>[[Special:Contributions/NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(contribs)</span>]]</sup>'' 17:13, 27 May 2016 (EDT)

| ::Ooohh, I see. In articles I often see the Swords of Sanghelios (the Elites the allied with the humans during the end of the war) called Swords of Sanghelios before they became officially established. Should this be changed? Maybe instead have the wording say "The faction that would later be known as Swords of Sanghelios" and link that to Swords of Sanghelios? Maybe saying Sangheili in general would be more accurate, when referring to the entirety of the "separatist" faction?

|
| |
|
| :::It's occasionally in some articles because some editors make the minor mistake of not realizing/forgetting that the Swords of Sanghelios weren't officially established until later and I don't notice it. And I wouldn't even go as far as to say that they eventually become the Swords of Sanghelios because we know that even some Sangheili that served under the Arbiter and Rtas in the final days of the Covenant War eventually enlisted with other factions including 'Mdama's Covenant after the war ended. --[[User:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">'''NightHammer'''</span>]]''<sup>[[User talk:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(talk)</span>]]</sup><sup>[[Special:Contributions/NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(contribs)</span>]]</sup>'' 17:42, 27 May 2016 (EDT)

| ::::I agree. Since the SOS wasn't established during the events in h2 and h3, the faction of Elites Separatists that become allied to humanity do have a proper name. Replacing SOS with Fleet of Retribution in those instances are a lot more accurate considering that the SOS didn't exist at that time. And it still accounts for the Elites that defected from the Arbiter after the war. The Fleet of Retribution emcompasses all the Elites that allied to humans during those events, and existed during that time period (unlike the SOS). All and all, it's a more lore friendly choice than SOS when referring to the allied ELites from Halo 2 and Halo 3.[[User:Editorguy|Editorguy]] ([[User talk:Editorguy|talk]]) 03:17, 29 July 2016 (EDT)

| :::::We know that the hierarchs and a number of other prophets launched a coup that effectively severed the Writ of Union made between San'Shyuum and Sangheili. We also know that the majority of Sangheili did not just decide to fight with humanity at that point. We know from examples like Xytan 'Jar Wattinree's and Jul 'Mdama's that not everyone was willing to just throw away the monicker or idea of the Covenant. The Great Schism didn't make Xytan give up on the genocide of humanity, after all. "Separatist", in this case, would denote someone who did wish to put the Covenant completely behind them and start on an entirely new footing.
| | The whole point of sending the Master Chief to High Charity was to kill him. Think about it, Gravemind didn't need the Chief to get the Index. The Control Room was surrounded by pissed off Elites, there was no real danger that Halo would go off. There were two reasons the Gravemind wanted the Chief on High Charity: |
| | -To get Cortana, a valuable source of knowledge on both humans and covenant |
| | -To kill the Chief, the only real Reclaimer at the moment. |
| | If Chief killed Truth, well, so be it. If not, the Flood would. -[[User:Azathoth|The Dark Lord Azathoth]] 13:09, 10 August 2007 (UTC) |

| :::::::Jul's Covenant and Xytan's group were very different though. Xytan's group was very much an active part of the Separatist (Rebellion, Resistance, whatever you wanna call it) movement against the Covenant. Jul's Covenant on the other hand, was created after the war ended to recreate the Covenant. Xytan's group was just like Thel and Rtas' group, they all worked to destroy the Covenant Empire that betrayed them. If anything Xytan could be seen as more vicious towards the Covenant Empire, as he planned a coup to massacre the Jiralhanae and San'Shyuum. The only difference between Xytan's group versus Thel and Rtas's group, is that Xytan's group didn't ally with the humans and continued to attack them. Which is why I think calling Xytan's group a separate faction of it's own is an assumption rather than a fact. Xytan's group could very well just have been another division of Sangheili fighting the Covenant Empire in its own way, like the Thel and Rtas' Fleet of Retribution.

Heavy aren't SoS, and none of them helped the SoS during Halo 2 if I remember. Also, should we remove the Kig-Yar from the page?

I think it can be chalked up to an instance of fandom terminology bleed-through, unless it starts cropping up more.

| | | Maybe the separatist hunters have green armour instead of blue..similar to how their phantoms were green. I dunno what separatist grunts would look like though...-- [[User:Joshua 029|Joshua 029]] 03:16, 29 March 2008 (UTC) |
| ::As for the matter of the Fleet of Retribution/Swords of Sanghelios, I'm of the mind that while it is definitely true that the Swords had not been officially established back then, there is an undeniable continuity between Thel and Rtas' group during the Schism and the later Swords of Sanghelios. The group during the Schism was not a proper organization like the Swords, just a collection of ex-Covenant (mainly Sangheili) who happened to agree with Thel and Rtas (who were not necessarily confined to the Fleet of Retribution). Essentially a proto-SoS without a name, government or anything that would distinguish them into their own "thing". As such, I don't think there's enough of a difference to warrant their separation into their own article, and I believe the way we have them documented in the history section of this page is quite fine. --[[User:Jugus|Jugus]] ([[User talk:Jugus|talk]]) 05:54, 8 December 2016 (EST)

| :::Looks like it's been changed: "...a poignant homage commissioned by the Arbiter to honor the '''Sangheili rebels''' that fought alongside human forces at the close of the Covenant War." Still, I doubt this is anything but a descriptor too. -- [[User:Topal the Pilot|'''Topal the Pilot''']] [[File:Blueteam.png|20px]] <small>([[User talk:Topal the Pilot|<span style="color:green">'''Talk'''</span>]]|[[Special:Contributions/Topal the Pilot|<span style="color:green">'''Contribs'''</span>]])</small> 18:12, 8 December 2016 (EST)

| == Halo 3 "Schism" Weapons And Vehicle Skins == | |
| This question has been on my mind for a while, does the color green, such as the green Phantoms, green Banshees, green Ghosts, and even some green weapons, show that the wielder is affiliated with the Swords of Sangheilios?
| |
| "Crimson and ivory, or red-gold armor indicates some form of affiliation to the Swords of Sanghelios"
| |
| Per the description of Halo 3's skins that have "Schism", it seems to be "for those seeking redemption". I'm not sure if this could mean that all Elite Separatists can have green colored weapons and vehicles, or if it's specifically for the Swords of Sangheilios.

| :The intention of them is certainly to call back to the Arbiter's Halo 3-era forces, and in a fan work I'd certainly argue it appropriate to depict them as using these weapons (campaign mods pls). However, we can't really say much on a canonical basis that those weapons ''were'' used by the Swords of Sanghelios - much in the same vein as the Brutal skins being used by the Jiralhanae or the Ultra skins being used by the Evocati etc. It makes a lot of sense to assume these are the case, but there isn't any factual canon stating as such.[[User:BaconShelf|<span style="color:green;">BaconShelf</span>]] <span style="font-size:90%">([[User:BaconShelf|talk]])</span> 13:12, June 1, 2021 (EDT)
