In Response To: Theory: Gravemind is Forerunner. *minor SP* *long* (7he grunt w/a plasma pistol) : I was looking at the theories about Gravemind and I got thinking. : Part One: : What if he wasn't originaly a collection of bodies but one large body. : The chamber MC and the Arbiter met him in was huge. So I thought back to : Halo 1. Where have we seen caverns that large? Assualt on the Control Room : (the room that Foehammer drops you off in at the begining of the level; : the underground passages; the two-bridge cavern), and the Halo level : (underground lightbridge cavern). What if those passageways are that large : because that's how big the Forerunner were. But this can be challenged : with the tiny corridors around the control room (generator rooms). : Here's where part two comes in: Humans. Or, more exact, Reclaimers. The : Forerunner were studying Earth. They then modeled a servant race off of : the Earthlings. These servants would assist the Forerunners with the Halos : and act as backup to get the Index incase the Forerunner were overrun by : the Flood. The pyramid outside the control room on Instillation 04 was : designed for Forerunner and Reclaimers. The ramps we use to get up would : be steps for the Forerunner. The Forerunner placed the Reclaimers on Earth : so we could have a place to live and also grow alongside the orignal : Earthlings. But the Earthlings died out for some reason and the Reclaimers : took over the empty planet as their own. : Now, back to Gravemind. He doesn't look like what a Forerunner could have : looked like. But, factor in the Flood. The infected hosts don't look : entirely like before it was infected. : "100 000 Years War": where does this tie into things. Well, : Gravemind probably collected bodies to add to himself and using them to : capture more bodies for food. Or, if you prefer, using the bodies to fight : the Sentinals. He doesn't look like a Forerunner because he has been : changed by the Flood and has been breaking off parts to fight the : Sentinals. : There's my theory. Hack away. If the Reclaimers were the Forerunner's servants, or workers, or mutual benefactors (or whatever) it would explain a lot; like how the Halo's have the same gravity, and atmosphere as Earth, being one that immediately springs to mind. Perhaps the Forerunner didn't even visit the Halos, why would they? They're a damned God-race after all. At the end of the day we have absolutely no idea what shape or form the Forerunner would take. From my outlook it's either the Humans, or some weird-thing race that doesn't really need to contain mass (like a spirit or something). *Shugs* Really, I think it'd ruin the entire mystery surround the Halo-verse if we did find out, hence we probably won't ever know.
