Biography
Fall of Reach
- Main article: Fall of Reach
During the Battle of Reach, Zawaz landed on Reach, along with the rest of the Covenant ground forces. He was supposed to be on the lookout for threats to the landing zone of a Covenant cruiser, but fell asleep on duty. He woke up dropping an expensive Covenant motion scanner. It still worked, so he was very grateful. He spotted three Banshees, but ignored them, because he thought that his commanding Sangheili officers might be angered, had it been a waste of time.[1]
Unfortunately for him, those Banshees were piloted by SPARTAN-IIs; Frederic-104, Joshua-029, and Kelly-087.[2] The Spartans dropped tactical nukes on the ship's gravity lift, which took them inside the Cruiser, detonated the ship, and killed Zawaz, as well as all Covenant forces in the area.
Trivia
His death is slightly ironic due to his creed, "Be ignored, live another day." He ignored the Banshees flown by Spartans, and they survived.
