Decimus killed her, putting an end to the skirmish. Atriox showed up along with more of his Banished forces and attacked in Sig Raan in return. Sig Raan then attacked Decimus with her Yanme'e swarm. Decimus was sent to investigate first, where Sig Raan initially welcomed him and his squad showing off her latest invention: a device that could control the Yanme'e by simulating their queen's pheromones. ĭecimus advised Atriox that the Banished should travel to the planet Otraak to recruit an old friend of his, a Kig-Yar T'vaoan scientist named Sig Raan. Vengeance has no reward." - Atriox attempting to recruit Resa 'Azavayl, pointing out the futility in feuds between species. While Atriox had already recruited many allies during the Covenant War, the Banished gained many new members in the war's aftermath from former Covenant who wished to continue living as warriors, and additionally renegade humans. Unimpeded by the Covenant's devastating Great Schism, the Banished managed to salvage many of the empire's former assets after its fall, growing into a formidable power in their own right after a decade. By this point the Banished had attacked at least five other Covenant bases.

The organization's goals have been described as attaining power in their raids across the Orion Arm, while their killers and mercenaries plunder treasure in the name of their own free will.

The Banished are primarily composed of Jiralhanae and have incorporated Sangheili, humans, Mgalekgolo, Unggoy, Huragok, and Kig-Yar, as Atriox saw feuds segregating species to be a senseless restriction in the way of gaining rewards and treasures. They were formed and led by the Jiralhanae warmaster Atriox. The Banished are an organization of mercenary raiders that broke off from the Covenant Empire to rebel against it and rose to power after the conclusion of the Human-Covenant War. One where the blood we spill and the treasures we plunder are in the name of our own free will and nothing more." - Atriox explains the Banished's mission statement to the Silent Shadow.
