A child prodigy with an innate skill in linguistics, Olympia Vale became fluent in Sangheili to pass the time on a prolonged slipspace trip to Earth. After graduating from university, Vale followed in her mother's footsteps and joined the Office of Naval Intelligence. Olympia Vale became a liaison between the UEG and the Swords of Sanghelios, eventually participating in a joint mission to the Ark where she proved to be a capable soldier as well. Following this, she was recruited as a Spartan-IV and assigned to Fireteam Osiris. During the Created crisis, Spartan Vale was stationed on Sanghelios, where she worked closely with Arbiter Thel 'Vadam and others within his faction. In late 2559, Vale became involved in a desperate hunt for an ancient weapon that could defeat Cortana's Guardians.

Located in former Covenant space, the planet Heian once served the alien empire as a key logistics base. In 2544, Spartan-II Cal-141 and a squad of ODSTs were sent on a mission to Heian to assassinate a Prophet. During their time on the world, the team found and documented ruins of structures bearing resemblance to those of various cultures on Earth, as well as architecture that one may expect to find on a Forerunner installation. Following the Human-Covenant War, Heian became the site of several scientific excavations with the intent of unlocking the secrets of its past, particularly in respect to ancient human history.

With its heritage tracing back to hunting tools and weapons used in conflicts between various Jiralhanae factions on Doisac, spike weaponry saw less usage after the species' induction into the Covenant, with many Jiralhanae warriors adopting the empire's ubiquitous plasma weapons instead. The manufacturing of spike weapons remained exclusive to Doisac until the months leading up to the Great Schism, when the High Prophet of Truth secretly ordered the Sacred Promissory on High Charity to expand its production scope to include various kinds of Jiralhanae matériel. Following the end of the Human-Covenant War, the Jiralhanae have continued to make use of spike weaponry alongside other weapons originating from their more savage, pre-Covenant history.

Introduced in 2535, just two years before the outbreak of the Human-Covenant War, the Paris-class heavy frigate quickly proved itself to be an extremely capable warship for its size. Its effectiveness led the UNSC to commission huge quantities of the Paris-class heavy frigate from SinoViet Heavy Machinery, resulting in ships of this class participating in some of the fiercest battles of the war. Although newer classes of frigate—including the Strident and Mulsanne-classes—have been introduced to take over the roles fulfilled by the Paris, the older heavy frigates remain in service after the war, deployed both alone and as part of larger fleets.

During a salvage operation on Installation 00 in early June 2559, Voridus disabled local Forerunner Sentinel defenses to access the quarantined crash site of High Charity, inadvertently releasing the Flood from containment. While their forces initially had to retreat, Voridus and his brother Pavium eventually defeated a Flood form that was maturing into a Gravemind. With the Flood once again contained within High Charity's remains, the Banished pillaged the city's data stores and retrieved a Forerunner entanglement dish, which Atriox used to send a command to Escharum: to rally the Banished at Reach.

Known as the "blood-moon" of Sanghelios, Suban is one of the Sangheili homeworld's two natural satellites. Since ancient times, Suban has been recognized as a place of great religious significance, especially for the members of the ascetic order. However, the moon is most famous as the only known source of Subanese crystals, or blamite, an exotic and volatile material used in the manufacture of ammunition for needle-based weapons. This key resource makes Suban an important foothold for any faction that utilizes such weaponry. Once safeguarded by the Covenant, the moon is now targeted by several parties, including independent keeps, the Swords of Sanghelios, and even the Banished.

Have S'Moa is a restaurant and petting zoo located on Gannick 22, a human Inner Colony world. Owned by entrepreneur Wiljax Brantley, the business makes its money from Moa, bird-like creatures native to Reach. When that planet was glassed in 2552, Have S'Moa was lucky enough to have just received a shipment of Moa from Reach. The sudden scarcity of Moa caused their value to skyrocket, and it made Brantley a very wealthy man. His Moa nuggets and burgers are still popular meals in the post-war period.
