Xytan 'Jar Wattinree (Earth-5875)

"We have been betrayed by those we trusted most. We have been betrayed by our Hierarchs. I, like all of you, believed in our leaders and their holy Covenant. How could we have been so willing to believe a Covenant of lies? They have called for the destruction of all sangheili. They have aligned themselves with the barbaric jiralhanae. The Great Schism is upon us. The unbreakable Writ of Union has been split asunder. This is the end of the Ninth, and final, Age. You must now decide to surrender to fate-or resist and strive to persist. Myself, I choose to fight. I call upon you all to join me. Let the old ways fade and battle by my side. Together we can forge a new, better union - a new Covenant among the stars."

- - Xytan 'Jar Wattinree to his forces

Xytan 'Jar Wattinree was a legendary sangheili Imperial Admiral of the Covenant, who commanded the massive Combined Fleet of Righteous Purpose aboard his flagship, the CSO-class supercarrier Sublime Transcendence. During the initial stages of the Great Schism, 'Jar Wattinree became the leader of the Joyous Summit, a splinter faction that sought to destroy the Covenant, the xenomorphs, and humanity during the last months of the First Contact War.

Career
A legendary and highly respected Imperial Admiral, Xytan 'Jar Wattinree was hailed as a living legend among the Covenant and the sangheili. It was said he was never defeated in a battle, never failed any task that befell him, and that no matter the difficulty of the challenge or the task, he was never wrong. His influence was so massive that the Hierarchs saw him as a threat to their power, and by the final years of the First Contact War, assigned him to guard fringe territories of the empire against the Banished and Atriox.

Great Schism
When the Great Schism commenced, Watinree led the Sublime Transcendence, a CSO-class supercarrier, to the colony Saepon'kal, where he formed the Joyous Summit, a coalition of sangheili-led fleets that would strike back against the jiralhanae and the san'shyuum, and later deal with the xenomorphs and humanity. One of his Shipmasters, Voro 'Mantrakee, urged Wattinree that they should deal with the xenomorphs, who were a much more serious and urgent threat that could end all existing life. Seeing wisdom in 'Mantrakee's words, Xytan renamed him Voro Nar 'Mantrakee, promoting the Shipmaster to Fleetmaster of the Second Fleet of Homogeneous Clarity. While the promotion seemed to be in good faith, he actually planned to end the life of his most formidable enemy afterwards.

Before they could continue with their plot, all of them were killed by the NOVA bomb accidentally activated by a huragok, which destroyed the entire Combined Fleet of Righteous Purpose, Saepon'kal, and its moon, Malhiem.
