Vyrant Telecom
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Vyrant Telecom is a human telecommunications business.
Overview
Facilities
Vyrant Telecom had a number of skyscrapers in New Mombasa. The most prominent, and easily the tallest skyscraper in the city, is their 2 km megatall in New Mombasa's city center.[1][Note 1]
Much like the building in Mombasa, the Vyrant Telecom Tower in New Alexandria was among the highest buildings in the city.[2]
History
Founding
Vyrant Telecom was founded at some point before August 2552.
Human-Covenant War
- Main article: Human-Covenant War
During the Fall of Reach, Covenant forces established a foothold in their skyscraper in New Alexandria. It is likely that skyscraper was lost to Covenant glassing.[2]
When the Covenant attacked Mombasa, Vyrant Telecom's megatall skyscraper in the city took significant damage.[3] The Covenant eventually started glassing the city looking for an ancient artifact. This glassing likely destroyed the skyscraper.[4]
Post-war
In either 2557 or 2558, Vyrant Telecom had multiple advertisements in the city of Pilvros, New Carthage.[5] Vyrant Telecom posted advertisements in New Mombasa circa 2560 after the city had begun being rebuilt following the war.[6]
Trivia
- Judging by Vyrant's logo and motto, Vyrant might be a parody of the real-world telecommunications company, Verizon.
- An advertisement for Vyrant Telecom appears on the Halo 4 map Perdition.
