Accepter (Earth-5875)

The "Accepter" was the Arbiter of the Covenant during the Unggoy Rebellion, responsible for ending the conflict and introducing the unggoy into the Covenant Armada as attackers.

Biography
After a group of kig-yar poisoned the unggoy's methane supply as revenge for the infant mortality caused by the unggoy moving towards their homes in the Lower Districts of High Charity, the unggoy retaliated, leading to the Unggoy Rebellion in 1262. When the Covenant was unable to contain the rebellion, the Hierarchs desperately named the Accepter an Arbiter, who then proceeded to partially glass Balaho and kill many, in the hopes of making the unggou give up. Watching the massacre from High Charity, the rebelling unggoy stopped their attack to end the bloodshed.

Even though the unggoy were unable to improve their polotical position within the Covenant, they had proven to be formidable and courageous fighters if situation needed to, prompting the Accepter to pardon the unggoy in High Charity and accept them into the Covenant Armada, giving them proper training and weapons. The Hierarchs agreed with the proposal, and the unggoy were integrated into former sangheili-only military units.

Even after the title of Arbiter had become a burden of shame, the Accepter was still foundly remembered as one of the figures who helped to maintain the Covenant and stopping it from tearing itself apart.
