Balkarus was a Jiralhanae Captain in service with the Banished.
Biography
Battle on the Ark
On March 30, 2559, he made an announcement to the Unggoy under his command wherein he attempted to quash the rumor that a lone Spartan had lately been responsible for freeing prisoners near a water treatment structure on Installation 00. The rumor had recently resulted in the attempted desertion of two Unggoy and some were even saying the demon had been the Master Chief himself.[2]
On May 1, 2559, Balkarus sent a message to Forticus about Atriox's new commander, Colony, and the uneasy feeling he had about the Lekgolo commander.[3] Hours later, Balkarus sent a message to other Jiralhanae pack brothers about not throwing more Unggoy into the cloaking field and asked them to hold the field active until Colony's plan was complete.[4]
Conflict to Zeta Halo
Balkarus was among a cast of warriors, along with Jato 'Ratum, Okro 'Vagaduun, and Zeretus, picked by Atriox himself to return to the galaxy with him. The group boarded Atriox's personal Lich and went through the Portal on Installation 00 to Reach to meet with Escharum and was introduced to Castor by Inslaan 'Gadogai when he departed. Eventually, the group departed Reach on Eschuram's Intrusion corvette after the remaining Keepers took Atriox's Lich back through the Portal.[5]
Balkarus later appeared on Installation 07 after defeating the UNSC. Master Chief then located and slew Balkarus, ending his threat against the rebuilding UNSC on the ring.[1]
Equipment
During the Installation 07 conflict, Balkarus wielded both a Type-58 plasma cannon and a custom Mangler known as the Riven Mangler.
