Dahks is a Ruuhtian Kig-Yar mercenary serving as a sniper within the Swords of Sanghelios.[2]
Biography
Covenant service
In their nest-years, Dahks became known as a keen tracker, adept at understanding and cataloguing the deepest wilds of the Kon’chomet jungles on Ruuht. During the course of his time there, they learned navigating the region’s most challenging scope of flora and fauna that would ultimately help teach Dahks the patience and focus they would later employ on important battlefronts throughout the War of Annihilation.[1]
During their service in the Covenant military, Dahks was member of the Jha'kaar, an elite order of Kig-Yar long-range assassins.[2] [1]
Swords of Sanghelios
Sometime prior to early 2560, Dahks was hired by the Swords of Sanghelios as a mercenary. By 2560, Dahks had been assigned as part of a joint Swords of Sanghelios and UNSC team under the purview of Fleetmaster Arkad Nar 'Kulul, one of the leaders of the Sanghelios home defense fleet. The Kig-Yar had developed a fondness for human-made sniper rifles, an interest with invited several discussions between Dahks and Trell, a Spartan of Fireteam Jorogumo.[2]
When the Banished attacked Suban in early 2560, Dahks and the rest of the joint team participated in the moon's defense under the command of Fahl 'Nto and Orim 'Kasaan. Their task was to clear the Mines of Shua'ree of their Banished presence, a job which saw Dahks and Trell provide sniper overwatch while the others infiltrated the site. Initially, the assault was going well, with Dahks and Trell picking off targets as the rest worked their way through the mines. However, the appearance of Chieftain Ipso turned the tide of battle in the Banished's favor. As more Swords of Sanghelios warriors fell, Fahl 'Nto was bested and nearly killed by Ipso, only being saved by Spartan Glyyss's sacrifice. With the Swords of Sanghelios clearly fighting a losing battle, the joint team retreated to their Phantom to continue the fight another day.[2]
Equipment
By early 2560, Dahks had developed a fondness for human sniper rifles and has been witnessed wielding an SRS99-S7 AM sniper rifle in combat. He is also known to make use of an ocular enhancement helmet capable of syncing with human-made drones.[2]
