Tartarus was easily recognized by his silver hair and fur, distinctive "mohawk" mane, and his use of the [[Fist of Rukt]] as his primary weapon. He was a powerful, aggressive and very ~~cleverly intelligent~~ leader who inspired both fear and respect in his subordinates. His devotion and faithfulness to the [[Covenant religion]] and the [[San'Shyuum]] was unwavering, but he nevertheless strongly represented the archetypal attitude of his entire race: rough, arrogant, and disdainful of the [[Sangheili]]. The [[Prophet of Clarity]] noted that he "radiated a sense of his own importance". He not only regarded himself as the chieftain of the entire Jiralhanae race, but as the leader of the entirety of the [[Covenant military]]. Although Tartarus generally disliked most species, he held some respect for the San'Shyuum. In fact, Clarity believed that only his belief in the Great Journey prevented Tartarus from using his hammer against other species in the Covenant.<ref name="bc195"/>
