I wanted to draw my sangheili OC.

Her name is Seasa (Iae) 'Wadunai(ee). I wanted to create a concept sangheili that joined the Covenant under the guise of being a male but who is actually female. Because I cannot imagine that NO FEMALE SANGHEILI EVER in the HISTORY OF THE COVENANT has joined. It just seems a little impractical from my perspective. So I wanted to create a OC just for that purpose.

Basically the idea is her father wanted her to join, so he masked her sex/gender using his power as a high ranking official. Most sangheili thought it was nepotism so really despised that, but her father literally just got her in the military and that is about it. Eventually, she makes it up the political chain and becomes high councilor. But, unfortunately, some people find out and use it as black mail.
Oh well.
As an aside I wanted to make an additional name moniker for those that work as Councilors since names are really important for sangheili. So I decided to make them Iae.
