The Ceremonial battle harness is an armor set of the Sangheili Zealot.[2]

Overview

The ceremonial battle harness features a smooth, organic thoracic cage harness; large, sloping shoulder pauldrons; and a long, back-swept helmet with mandible guards.[3] The helmet and pauldrons feature decorative blue bands. Like the Evocati harness and the Stealth Infiltration harness, it does have red markings.

Usage

The Ceremonial battle harness was exclusively used by Sangheili Zealots, most famously worn in maroon by the Devoted Sentries.[4][5] Zealot Field Masters who were command positions and attached to regular Covenant military forces wore the same armor, albeit colored gold, similar to suits worn by lower-ranking Generals.[6] The Ultra-class color scheme worn by Ultras (silver-white with black trim) is also used.[7]

Variants

Field Marshal harness

Sangheili Field Marshals wear a modified version of the Ceremonial battle harness; the front of the helmet has two horn-like prongs and the pauldrons are wider.[4]
