Ferrunus

Ferrunus was a Brute born on Dosiac in 2588. He grew up despising all races besides the Brutes and Prophets, and hated the Jiralhanae Alliance for its peaceful relations with the Elites and Humans. He joined a Covenant Remnant recruitment cell and was sent to a Remnant training facility.
== Early Life ==
Ferrunus was born into a poor family in an urban environment on Dosiac. He witnessed his parents' deaths at the hands of a local gang when he was only eight years old, and grew up alone, fighting for food scraps in the urban slums. When he was only fifteen years old, he joined a Remnant recruitment cell and requested to be immediately sent off-planet for training. Glad for new, eager warriors, the leaders of the cell granted his request, and was sent to Azaria for training. During his time there, he was noted by his superiors for being abnormally ruthless and sadistic, even by Brute standards. He continued to distinguish himself by volunteering for special training to use a Fire Hurler, a weapon generally shunned by most Brutes. He proved extremely capable with the weapon and was accepted into a large Brute pack, led by the veteran Chieftain Cassus. The pack saw some isolated action during raids on UNSC settlements, and during this time Ferrunus proved himself to be a capable but bloodthirsty warrior, taking pleasure in burning his enemies. Despite his prowess in battle, Cassus was reluctant to promote him, feeling that he was not suited for leadership. This was not minded by the aggressive young Brute, who believed that a higher rank would take the fun out of killing.
