Prophets

Prophets, or San'Shyuum, are a race of withered idiots who were once leaders of the Covenant before Jorgey. They are pathetic and frail creatures, unable to move without some sort of assistance, whether it be a whole throne or simply a jetpack. They cannot wield any weapon effectively, even the most pathetic Brute Spiker causes uncontrollable recoil and makes them fall over.

Prophets tend to take names opposite to their actual nature. For example, Truth always lies, Mercy never shows mercy, Regret never regrets anything, and Restraint is a sex fiend. They are great at preaching bullshit to everyone, so much so that they managed to keep the faith of almost all the Covenant despite being decimated in the Human-Covenant War, if only for a short time.

Since the fall of their 'Holy City', High Charity, Prophets have dwindled to dangerously low numbers. Only about 1,000 Prophets still live today. As a result, despite their failings, they are protected by League law and many Prophets are encouraged to follow the ways of Restraint to get their numbers back up. They seem to have given up on their insane dreams of firing the silly Halo Array, instead content just to live peacefully and reproduce like everyone else.
