"Ummm, yeah, about that, the human is right in front of me" -Quatat, during an encounter with Master Chief John-117

Quatat was a Covenant Unggoy, but secretly a Heretic.

History
Quatat was a healthy and strong Unggoy on the planet of Balaho. He was getting thirsty, and decided to drink from a nearby river. It had a chemical in it that gave him better agility, and gave him a much longer lifespan. Later, Covenant troops came and attempted to make him join the Covenant Empire. Quatat attacked the nearest Elite, stole his Plasma Rifle, and fired upon the others, until he was held at gunpoint by Covenant Elite Zuka Zamamee. He was forced into the Covenant, and hated it. He first decided to study the Covenant for a while.

Battle of Reach/Alpha Halo
Quatat joined Ulsa 'Fornamee's Special Operations lance, because, just like Shadaesis, he wanted to try and get killed, or at least get captured, or run away. He also thought that he may get stronger as he "exercises" more, so he could stand up to the Covenant. He went on the Pillar of Autumn, and was targeted by John-117. John shot his methane tank, and the methane in it started blowing out, pushing Quatat into a human escape pod, and right into the pilot's chair. The pilot was shoved into the controls, and the pod was launched at Forerunner Installation 04. He patched up the hole on his methane tank, and sent out a homing beacon so the Covenant would know where he was. He doubted they would come save him, but he used it so they would know where to land. When the Truth and Reconciliation landed, Quatat went off to get his methane tank fixed up. He worked in Ulsa's squad for a while, then, along with hundreds of other Unggoy, formed a Heretic group. They were able to get some Mgalekgolo, Sangheili, and Kig-Yar to join as well, but the nation was mostly made up of Unggoy. They set up a base in a canyon near one of the Installation's Pulse Generators, on a cliff. Several Elites there were jerks to the others, constantly driving Banshees at his "Grunty friends" and shoving them over cliffs or flattening them. Quatat referred to them as "jocks", and despised them with "every single cell in him". He found out a way to keep them in order though: The Assault Cannon he stole from a dead Mgalekgolo, and modified to be smaller, but deadlier.

Escape from Alpha Halo
Quatat and his heretic army went to investigate the island where the Silent Cartographer was. Several other Covenant troops were there first, and they were loyalists. Quatat went down to check on the map room, and after gathering enough data, shot the two Elite loyalists that came with him. He traveled back up the structure, killing whatever loyalist he saw(he put on a visor to see what troops had modified armor on the inside and what didn't), and escaping in the Dropship Ulsa and his squad often use. Quatat was sent to the swamp The Flood were being kept in. He was chosen to repair the crashed Dropship, and as he did so, he would play a game that he called "McDonald's"(where he hid in the closed hatches and when another squad member came, he would act like a McDonald's employee. Quatat "played along" for a little while longer, and when the Flood outbreak got too large, he chose to stay in the Dropship for the rest of the battle. Like the rest of the surviving squad, Quatat rode from Alpha Halo to High Charity in the squad's Dropship to report to the Prophets.
