Like its Halo 2 counterpart, when activated the Blind skull removes all interface elements from the screen. It is a silver skull, and provides no achievements or campaign scoring multipliers.

It is the first skull encountered in the game. It is out in the open, at the end of a rock outcropping overlooking the river to the far right of the pool where the Phantom drops off the first Grunt and Brute reinforcements during the first encounter of the first level, Sierra 117.
