Covenant Remnants

Covenant remnants is a collective term referring to the numerous factions which emerged in the stead of the original Covenant Empire after its dissolution in the Battle of the Citadel and the events which followed. The remnants have varying political and religious standpoints, and conflict between different remnant factions is commonplace.

The Covenant waged a genocidal campaign against humanity until they were formally defeated due to many factors - the most crucial of which was an internal conflict that broke the Covenant in two, forcing out the entire Sangheili species and splintering them into separatist groups.

The Covenant waged a genocidal campaign against humanity until they were formally defeated due to many factors - the most crucial of which was an internal conflict that broke the Covenant in two, forcing out the entire Sangheili species and splintering them into separatist groups.

Whilst the Covenant leadership was killed either during the Flood infestation of High Charity or during the Battle of the Citadel, it effectively dissolved into splinter groups. Some of them allied to the United Nations Space Command, helping them to defeat and destroy the Covenant, while others continued the efforts of the former Covenant were created after the conclusion of the war.

Some of the separatist Sangheili were fanatical followers of the Covenant's religion and simply sought to recreate the Covenant entirely under their rule, free of the Hierarch's influence. However, between the dozens of factions there is a high variety: from mercenaries who work for anybody than pays them, to pirates, and more. But the main groups are focused around the two main warrior races of the Covenant: the Sangheili and the Jiralhanae, and both races share a great hate towards the other.
