[[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant]] deployed multiple Liches during [[Battle of Requiem|their initial foray]] on the [[Forerunner]] [[shield world]] [[Requiem]] in July [[2557]]. After the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}'s [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marine]] and [[SPARTAN Program|Spartan]] complement disabled an array of Forerunner [[particle cannon]]s, they were attacked by a Lich. The Lich quickly disabled a [[M510 Mammoth|Mammoth's]] [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon]] and dropped off troops supported by Phantoms dropping in Wraiths and Ghosts.
