Heretic Banshee



This Banshee is used exclusively by the Heretics led by Sesa 'Refumee.

Summary
The Heretic Banshee is the backbone of the Heretics' aerial combat. The Heretic Elites have removed the Covenant-manufactured cowlings from their Banshees, revealing the Forerunner mechanisms beneath. This aerial combat vehicle, now wearing the colors of the Sangheili homeworld, inspires fear and respect in all enemy forces.

Appearance
A Heretic Banshee is quite different in appearance to its Covenant counterpart. Though its purple outer cowling is not completely stripped, it is now mostly a golden color similar to that worn by Heretic Elites and Grunts.

Features
Despite its odd coloring, the Heretic Banshee is completely the same as other Banshees as far as its abilities and limits.

In Halo 2, any difficulty, it is possible to find a Heretic Banshee at the end of The Great Journey.

It can be destroyed just like any other banshee and works just like any other banshee. It appears just under the great cliff edge at the beginning of the level except it only appears at the end of the level. It has also been found beside one of the two towers that the wraiths hide behind. It is possible to have a banshee spawn at both of these places. It spawns when the player jumps from the platform with the first banshees and walks to the last banshee before the cliff or the player rides the Scarab Sergeant Johnson is driving. It is fully drivable and has no special features but only has a new look.
