Topic: Covenant Elite


  
  Covenant Elite - Definition, explanation
Elites are the generals of the Covenant military, the longtime guards of the Prophets and the first of the races to join the Prophets in the Covenant.
Elites are typically promoted on the number of enemies they have killed and casualties inflicted on the opposing force, meaning that a single gold Elite may have slaughtered thousands before attaining that rank.
Being respectful but authoritative commanders, Elites rarely fail to elicit a strong bond of loyalty with their troops: it was noted that Elite Arbiters suppressed the Grunt Rebellion and tamed the Hunters, and these two races remain faithful to the Elites when they are cast out of the Covenant.

 Arbiter - Halopedia
The rank of Arbiter, in Halo 2, is the highest possible honor bestowed upon a Covenant Elite (Sangheili) by the High Prophets during a time of need, and it's also the highest rank in religious significance, although the Councillor is superior in political or military rank.
On those missions, the Arbiter is expected to die (which they do, in most cases) and become another great martyr of the Covenant on their path to the Great Journey.
It is possible that a previous Arbiter (the first to be recognised by the Prophets) influenced the war between the two sides and caused them to merge, with the armor of the arbiter being bestowed upon him as a sign of respect by the Prophets, again though this is pure speculation.
