Ruinos 'Lutham

Ruinos 'Lutham (formerly 'Luthamee), later simply recorded as "The Heathen" or Ruinos the Heathen, was a Sangheili Field Marshal and high ranking member of the 'Lutham keep. He was later branded a heretic for questioning the rule of the San 'Shyuum and the reality of the Great Journey. 
==Biography==
===Early Life===
Ruinos was born to the 'Lutham Keep on Sangheilios, a relatively small but renowned client state of the ancient 'Vadum Keep. Raised alongside his fellow Sangheili youth, Ruinos displayed prominent combat skill, primarily with marshal weapons such as pikes, staves, and swords.
After several years of service in the Covenant Military, Ruinos quickly ascended to the rank of Zealot. However, despite his title and renown in the Ministry of Fervent Intercession, he began to have his doubts about the Covenant religion and belief in the Great Journey. This train of thought slowly began to consume his mind, even after his promotion to Field Marshal.
He also met his future mate, Saira 'Vadam, during religious services in High Charity, and sired a son, Insidae 'Vadam. 
===The Heresy===
During a banquet on High Charity in honor of a Fleetmaster who had recently quelled rebellion on a small Covenant fringe world, Ruinos spoke up about his personal beliefs. He declared that he no longer believed the Great Journey to be true. He did, however, express his desire to continue service to the Prophets despite his lack of belief in their will.
This expression of unbelief was not met well within the Covenant. Immediately, he was branded a heretic by the present Minister. Both his wife and son immediately expressed their dissatisfaction with Ruinos, and Ruinos was captured by Honor Guard forces.
====Trial====
Ruinos was brought before a panel of San 'Shyuum priests and Sangheili councilors for trial. There, he was convicted of heresy of the highest order. The council ordered that he be stripped of rank, name, and military status. However, Ruinos challenged them, and fought his way out of the facility. Stealing an Honor Guardsman's pike, he escaped the building and rushed into the streets of High Charity.
====Rebellion====
Despite the fact that the Covenant tried to repress the broadcast of Ruinos' heretical speech, many citizens aboard High Charity with dissenting opinions or conflicted feelings towards the Great Journey felt empowered by this sudden outburst against the Prophets. As Ruinos fought his way through the streets of High Charity, he gained a small following of supporters, Sangheili and Mgalekgolo, who fought by his side against the Covenant Forces.
The battle was ended when Insidae, leading a battalion of the Lights of Sangheilios, put down the rebellion with force. He captured his father and his followers, imprisoning them for execution.
