Trivia

 * His hands have four fingers each, instead of three like the other San'Shyuum, probably artistic oversight.
 * In one scene of the Halo Graphic Novel, the Legate is grabbed in a chokehold by Rtas 'Vadumee, then slammed to the floor. In the next panel, he is seen unharmed, his headpiece unbroken, and his being is robustly frail as any other Prophet. This is just a simple printing glitch, meant to be in a prior page.
