'''Chur'R-Yar''' was the [[Kig-Yar]] [[Shipmaster|Shipmistress]] of the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] missionary vessel ''[[Minor Transgression]]'', and as such is unique in being one of the very few and the first female [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] characters mentioned in the Halo Universe. | |||

==History== | |||
Commanding her ship on the very fringes of Covenant territory, she ordered the raid of two [[human]] [[freighter]]s with the aid of the [[Deacon]] [[Dadab]], before locating a planet with supposed [[Forerunner]] relics. Intending to steal a number of these relics for herself before she could report it to the Covenant, betraying the Deacon as well, she was shot by [[Staff Sergeant]] [[Avery Junior Johnson|Avery Johnson]] after the Minor Transgression boarded a third freighter, bait for a trap laid by the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]]. Before dying, she detonated her own ship in an unsuccessful, suicidal attempt to kill her attacker. | |||
Chur'R-Yar's ancestors were pirates, sailing the oceans of the Kig-Yar homeworld [[Eayn]], battling rival clans and claiming slaves and territory. In this regard, she hoped to mimic them, with space serving as the new ocean. She also hoped to retire with the profit from the stolen relics and raise a family of young Kig-yar. She was killed before she could reach her aspirations.<ref>'''Halo: Contact Harvest'''</ref> | |||

*Chur'R-Yar had chosen the Kig-Yar [[Zhar (Kig-yar)|Zhar]] as her mate, based around his physical traits and long, angular spikes that no other male had. | |||
*It's possible that "Chur 'R" is a word which designates a Kig-Yar Shipmaster, as there are two Shipmistresses with the prefix ([[Chur'R-Mut|Chur 'R-Mut]]), and Kig-Yar names are always monosyllabic. | |||
