"They are smaller than average in size, but what they lack in height they make up for with superior weapons and technology."

- Miranda Evergron describing the Sarflic in 2553

A intelligent, insectoid species of cunning engineers and warriors, the Sarflic (Latin Positum Technicos (Lying Technician) are the native species of Peonisit. They are one of the last remaining Tier 1 species in the Milky Way Galaxy following the near extinction and departure of the Forerunner and the eradication of the mysterious Likontons who threatened the lives of billions 52 thousand years prior to the Human-Covenant war. The Sarflics are renowned for their genius and military tactics. In 2553, they first encountered Humanity, and wished to join in a alliegence with them. However, Jiralhanae ambassadors have brought conflict to their homeworld beginning a deadly contest for the Sarflic's alliance.

Trivia

 * The Sarflic take the appearence of the Geonosian species from the Star Wars universe. However, unlike the Geonosians, the Sarflics do not have Queens or a galactic Battle Droid Army ranging in the quintillions.
 * It can be considered ironic that the Sarflics allied with the Forerunner to destroy the parasite (the Flood), and in modern times they wish to ally with other species to further their own goals, using them much like a parasite.
