Relations Toward Humans
The Sangheili may choose to be friendly to Human personnel, however it is recommended that you do in order to improve relations. If a Human desires to provoke hostility with a Sangheili, the Sangheili must either try ending the conversation, alerting an NCO, CO, or Provost Officer of the situation, or intimidate the human, rather than inducing severe injuries to a human, for the Sangheili can easily kill Humans. Any hostile aggressive physical contact with a Human is strictly forbidden, unless it is in self defense. There was no formal alliance signed between the Humans and Sangheili, but simply various peace treaties, however one must try to be keep the peace, for hostility will be the end of all.
Conversational Tendencies
All Sangheili are recommended to use complex vocabulary whenever they can to prevent the stereotype that we are feral, bloodthirsty reptiles from blossoming. Sangheili Minors and Majors are permitted to slightly indulge themselves in the popular conversational culture of Humans, a way of conversing they've dubbed 'slang', to promote Sangheili-Human relations. Sangheili Ultras and higher, however, must constantly maintain formalities in speaking to promote authority and honor.
Policing Protocol
All Sangheili are expected to adhere to the ship's policies and regulations, including access restrictions. (Only Minors and Majors adhere to this, since higher ranks are the equivalent of a CO.) Any minor local issues will be reported to any available Sangheili Officer. Any Sangheili imprisoned for crimes will have their rank, name, and honor stripped and be deemed an Oathbreaker for 72 hours. Whether or not they will be demoted one level at the end of the period will be determined by the General and Field Marshal based on the severity of the offense. Major issues will be directly reported to the General and Field Marshal, where a transfer back to Sanghelios will be considered.
On the Battlefield
When deployed along with the Marines, the Sangheili delpoy and act much like a normal squad, the obvious difference being the toughness and weaponry between Marines and Sangheili. Good communication is required between Marine leaders and Sangheili officers, for hostilities must be abandoned during combat, otherwise it will compromise the mission entirely. You may follow a Marine CO's or NCO's orders. However, if a Sangheili Officer is present on the battlefield, their orders should come first.
