Forsaken Knights

The Forsaken Knights are an elite unit of Sangheili warriors who are tasked with the protection of Forsaken officials. Much like their Covenant counterparts, the Knights wear crimson-coloured armour and are equipped with specialized weaponry and are trained in advanced close-quarters-combat techniques.
==History==
As a remnant of the Covenant Empire, the Forsaken Knights had become their successor to the Covenant Honor Guard. Founded by Garr 'Alakavai and Sor 'Srasovai, the Knights are an elite unit of warriors who are tasked with guarding Forsaken officials including High Kaidon 'Alakavai, Imperial Admiral Khito 'Nucam, Prime Minister Vassi 'Turanro, and their various fleet commanders.
==Equipment & Training==
The standard Forsaken Knight wore a crimson combat harness with golden highlights going down their sides, protective gauntlets with energy daggers, and they hold insignias denoting the location or person they are assigned to. Unlike Covenant Honor Guards, Forsaken Knights are allowed to possess whichever weapon they desire, ranging from Energy Swords to Plasma Rifles.
Because of their status as elite protectors, Knights are required to train amongst themselves daily to keep up with their skills. Often times, the subject of their protection will train alongside them in order to better foster a kinship with the guardian and the protectee.
