'''''Retribution's Thunder''''' was a [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] [[Covenant destroyer|destroyer]] under the command of [[Thel 'Vadamee]] in service during the [[Human-Covenant War]]. | |||

''Retribution's Thunder'' was the first vessel under the command of Thel 'Vadamee, which he received directly from the [[Prophet of Regret]]. The destroyer was present at the [[Battle of Charybdis IX]] in [[2535]], where it engaged it [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] [[UNSC destroyer|destroyer]]s over the [[human]] colony [[Charybdis IX]].<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 136''</ref> | |||
Most of the UNSC ships were destroyed nearly instantly by the ''Thunder'''s accompanying fleet. ''Retribution's Thunder'' attacked and disabled the destroyer {{UNSCShip|Do You Feel Lucky?}} in an attempt to capture navigation data from the latter vessel. A [[Sangheili]] boarding team, lead by [[Thel 'Vadamee]], entered the ship to retrieve the data, only to find that the humans had already destroyed it.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 141''</ref> With all human ships destroyed, the Covenant proceeded to glass the planet as the [[Insurrectionist]]s on the planet vainly attempted to resist.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 146''</ref> | |||

''Retribution's Thunder'' was then assigned by the Prophet of Regret to hunt down a group of allegedly heretical [[Kig-Yar]] who were trading with the [[human]] insurgents over the planet [[Hesiod]].<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 155''</ref> | |||
Later the ''Retribution's Thunder'' and the accompanying [[Kig-Yar raider|raider]] ''[[A Psalm Every Day]]'' arrived in the [[23 Librae]] system to search for the Kig-Yar "rebels". Upon finding the source of the "heresy" at [[the Rubble]], the crew of ''Retribution's Thunder'' were betrayed by the [[Jiralhanae]] and Kig-Yar aboard the Kig-Yar raider vessel. ''Retribution's Thunder'' was then self-destructed upon boarding by Kig-Yar forces to prevent its capture. | |||
Many of the crew fled the ship after 'Vadamee rhetorically asked the crew if anyone wished to leave in order to weed out any dishonorable [[Sangheili]] and [[Unggoy]]. Most of ''Retribution's Thunder'''s crew perished while retreating or while fighting the boarders. However, 'Vadamee and his four-member Sangheili retinue - [[Jora 'Konaree]], [[Saal]], [[Zhar (Sangheili)|Zhar]], and [[Veer]] - survived and were captured by Kig-Yar forces.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 161''</ref> | |||
