The Covenant

The Covenant is a united faction of different alien species unified by a common faith, reverence for the Forerunners. Founded thousands of years ago by the Sangheli and San'Shyuum, The Covenant has expanded over time to include a variety of different species, inducing them into The Covenant's religion, and pursuit of what their "Gods" left behind. The ultimate endgame for the Covenant was the Great Journey, where they foolishly believed that activating the Halo Array would bring them, and all life salvation via ascension. The lies of the Prophets would in time be uncovered, causing a civil war in The Covenant, leading to its eventual dissolution. The Covenant, a hostile coalition of aliens, has arrived on your world. Their ships hang ominously in the sky above as they dispatched craft to the ground. Will you stand and fight this alien threat? Or try to flee in vain?
