===Topography===
Warial is known to have bodies of [[water]] which Jiralhanae sail across and storms of slow, blue lightning are not uncommon. These aforementioned bodies of water are the sites of graves.{{Ref/Novel|Env|Chapter=10}} The smog-filled barrens of [[Doda’keyt]] were home to toxic chemicals, used to create the stimulants ingested by [[Jiralhanae Berserker]]s.{{Ref/Book|Enc22|Page=425}} The moon is additionally home to the brimstone-dockyards of [[Ividar Rux]], used for repairing warships.{{Ref/Novel|Id=Sacrifice|HSOR|Section=Adjunct|Detail=[[Sacrifice]]}}
Warial also featured chalk fields, which the Banished used to create pigments and give the [[Volatile Skewer|Volatile]] variant of the [[Flaktura Workshop Skewer]] its white chassis.{{Ref/Site|Id=CF150|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/canon-fodder-give-em-lore|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - If They Want Lore, We'll Give 'Em Lore|D=21|M=2|Y=2024|LocalArchive=Armory Infinitum#Volatile Skewer}}
 
==History==
In early Jiralhanae history, their loosely held religion was based on the lunar cycles of Warial and the other two moons, as they perpetually haunted Doisac's skyline.{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/species/jiralhanae|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Jiralhanae|D=30|M=06|Y=2021}} The moon was later colonised, along with Teash. Warial was noted for being the most far-flung of the Jiralhanae colonies. While hunting [[human]]s on [[Beta Gabriel]] in [[2552]], [[Ceretus]] hoped his [[clan]] would be able to hide away on Warial and blend in to avoid punishment for fleeing from the [[Fall of Reach|Fall]] of [[Reach]].{{Ref/Reuse|Stomp}}
 
Following the [[Great Schism|collapse]] of the [[Covenant]] in [[2552]], Warial almost immediately fell into infighting between the various [[clan]]s that dotted the surface. Unlike Teash, the [[Banished]] were unable to gain much of a stabilising foothold on Warial due to the local clans' distrust of anything resembling the Covenant empire of old. As such, the moon fell into a long and gruelling war of attrition as local factions fought bitterly over the limited local resources on-hand.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} The moon became home to raider lairs{{Ref/Game|H5G|List of REQ cards|REQ card|Detail=[[Corpsemaker]] Description|Quote=Made of the finest materials its creator could coerce or steal from raider lairs on Warial and Teash. Improved Gravity Hammer with swing time and increased lunge range.}} and by [[2558#September|September 2558]], clans under the [[Voice of Maardoth]] on Warial were starving - something which prompted the [[chieftain]], [[Hekabe]], to attempt to seize more power for the sake of his people.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HE6|Env|Chapter=6}}
 
During the [[Razing of Oth Sonin]] by [[Created]] [[Guardian Custode]]s in late [[2559]], Warial's surface was struck by massive amounts of debris from the now-destroyed Doisac, with the majority of outposts on the surface facing the cataclysm completely destroyed in the blast. In the end up, only a few hundred thousand Wariali were able to escape the moon between [[Cortana]]'s genocidal act and the cataclysmic events which followed it.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}
 
==Government and society==
Prior to the destruction of Doisac, Warial was home to various clans embroiled in bitter wars of attrition for the control of the moon's limited resources. As such, no one power held dominant sway over the moon. The [[Voice of Maardoth]], based themselves out of Doisac{{Ref/Reuse|HE6}}, had sub-clans based on Warial while the Banished also tried to gain some sway over the moon to limited success.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} The [[Warial's Wrath]] clan were one of those groups who accepted [[Atriox]]'s offer, having abandoned the Covenant during the war with [[human]]ity and joined the Banished in [[2550]]—well before the war's conclusion.
 
The destruction of Doisac rendered Warial—along with the other moons—completely uninhabitable, with only a few hundred thousand able to escape the apocalyptic devastation visited upon the moon.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} As such, it presumably no longer has any functioning society.
