Anti-gravity belt
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
The antigravity belt is a personal transportation device worn by some lesser Covenant Prophets. Worn around the waist of the user, they levitate the user above the ground in a manner similar to the anti-gravity chair or gravity throne. The San 'Shyuum use these devices to avoid walking, as they are a fairly feeble race.[1]
The use of antigravity belts is relatively rare; nearly all mature San 'Shyuum use anti-gravity chairs as their primary form of transport,[2] and only the Prophet of Stewardship has been known to use an antigravity belt. It was noted that the Prophet preferred a belt over a chair either out of habit, or because it allowed him to loom over otherwise taller races such as the Sangheili, granting him a form of artificial physical power symbolic of the political and religious power wielded by the Prophets within the Covenant.[3]
