It is a common superstition among the Sangheili that SPARTANs are reanimated soldiers killed in battle, brought back to life through artificial means to fight again. <ref>'''[[Halo: Glasslands]]'''</ref> | It is a common superstition among the Sangheili that SPARTANs are reanimated soldiers killed in battle, brought back to life through artificial means to fight again. <ref>'''[[Halo: Glasslands]]'''</ref> | ||
Amongst the Covenant, [[John-117]], otherwise known as the Master Chief, the SPARTANs ''de facto'' commander gained the title of The Demon from the Covenant, setting him aside from the rest of the SPARTANs. This came from his destruction of [[Installation 04]]. According to [[Arbiter]] [[Thel 'Vadam]], this was done as an insult but also with a modicum of respect, showing that even the Covenant, while fearing and insulting their most hated enemy, also had a level of respect for him and his skills as well. Indeed, 'Vadam himself displayed a level of respect for the Master Chief after the events of ''[[Halo 2]]'': while they came close to fighting at the beginning of ''[[Halo 3]]'' and didn't like each other, Thel worked side by side with his old enemy. Thel continued to refer to him as the Demon even while fighting with him, but showed more respect later, changing to calling him "Spartan" instead. | |||
