Combatants
The game's main enemy force is the covenent, an alliance of alien species. Their forces include Elites, fierce warriors protected by recharging energy shields much like the player's own; Grunts, which are short, cowardly creatures, usually led by Elites, and who often flee in terror instead of fighting unless an Elite is present; Jackels, which have highly durable energy shields attached to their arms; and Hunters, large, powerful creatures with thick armor plates that cover the majority of their bodies.
A secondary enemy is the flood, a parasitic alien life form that appears in three main variants. infection forms, the true form of the Flood, are fragile, but often travel in swarms. Combat forms result from humans and Covenant Elites who are infested by Infection Forms, and have hideously deformed bodies. Bloated Carirre forms serve as incubators for new Infection Forms, and when wounded or near a potential victim, they explode suicidally to damage other nearby life forms and to release their spores. Battling the Flood, the Covenant, and the player are the Sentinels, robotic drones designed by a race called the foreruners. Sentinels lack durability, but use powerful beam weapons and are immune to infection by the Flood.
