High Council
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
(You may actually be looking for the Forums, Halopedia Forums instead of the Article below.)
The High Council is the the theocratic governing body of the Covenant. It can be compared to a Covenant Cabinet. The High Council consisted of Elites and Prophets and was headed by a triumvirate known as the High Prophets or "Hierarchs." Most of the Elite members of the council were assassinated in Halo 2 as part of the High Prophet of Truth's plan to replace Elites with Brutes in Covenant society.
The theocratic Covenant follows the orders of the high council to the letter. They are the entire government of the Covenant. The members of the High Council are split into different groups including the High Council of Masters,[1] the High Council of Deed and Doctrine,[2] and the High Council of Concordance.
