Chieftain
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Chieftain is a high rank in the Brute caste system. The only known holder of this title was Tartarus. It is unknown if this rank holds any signifigante influence in the High Council. The Cheiftain does, however, speak for the Brutes to both the High Council and the High Prophets.
Tartarus used a special weapon called a Gravity Hammer that may have also signified that the wearer was the leader or "Cheiftan". In the new Halo 3 trailer which aired on ESPN you can see a Brute with a Gravity Hammer this could mean a new Cheiftan, Tartarus' replacement.
