Commander Re'gish Wamik is a Sangheili Commander who served during the Harvest campaign in 2531.[2]
Biography
Harvest campaign
On February 4, 2531, during the final stages of the Harvest campaign, Wamik commanded the Covenant forces that found the doorway to the newly discovered Forerunner relic. He sent a message to the Prophet of Regret informing him of their findings; in the same message, Wamik requested that Regret send the Arbiter, Ripa 'Moramee, so they may open the Relic.[2] When the Arbiter arrived at the site the Commander expressed concern that the Flood may lurk within. However, the Arbiter demanded that the structure be opened and rebuked his subordinate with the words, "I care not for your little life!"[1]
Military career
Following the Harvest campaign, Wamik's military career with the Covenant was well documented by the United Nations Space Command as he continued to prove to be a challenging foe to the UNSC during the Human-Covenant War.[3]
Post-war simulations
As a result of Wamik's infamy during the Human-Covenant War, the Office of Naval Intelligence's War Games designers utilized field data on Wamik to produce a boss construct for Warzone scenarios to test Spartan operatives against in the Stormbreak simulation.[3][4]

Trivia
Re'gish Wamik's name lacks the typical "-ee"/"-ai" suffix, as well as a preceding apostrophe, seen in most Sangheili. He is likely named for a hero or legend of ancient Sangheili history, retaining the name in the antiquated dialect of the era.[3]
