Confirmer (Earth-4001)

"Long duty has not been good to the Confirmer. No warrior should allow his weapons to rust."

- The Didact, upon visiting the Deep Reverence.

The Confirmer was a Forerunner Promethean who commanded the Fortress-class vessel Deep Reverence. He was an old friend and mentor of the Didact.

History
The history of the Confirmer is the same as his mainstream counterpart.

Description and Personality
The Confirmer was energetic in personality, though that appeared to be thanks to being alone from over a millennium until the Didact returned. He had grown very careless in his old age, allowing his weapons and ship to fall into disrepair, and did not even check if the Didact still held his rank after his exile. Bornstellar suspected he had spent his time building useless trinkets within the ship, diminishing its resources and design.

The Confirmer was fond of San'Shyuum art, and he valued it especially because it was worthless to Forerunners. He kept himself away from the business of Lifeworkers and Builders, since they were a higher rate than Prometheans.

Trivia

 * His translated title may have been derived from his notable act of providing the Didact's brevet mutation, a process which has a social function comparable to confirmation, a rite of initiation in several branches of Christianity.
