'''Constraint fields''' are a form of energy field used by the [[Forerunner]]s to [[Physical restraints|restrain]] individuals.<ref name="cryptum">'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 303-305''</ref> [[Warrior-Servant]]s were capable of generating and manipulating constraint fields at will. Higher-ranked Warriors, such as the [[Ur-Didact]], could control these fields to the extent they could be used in a manner similar to telekinesis, allowing the Didact to immobilize and move his opponents from a distance.<ref>'''Halo 4'''</ref> Aside restraining opponents, constraint fields also had other uses. For example, [[Glory of a Far Dawn]] used two constraint fields to secure [[IsoDidact|Bornstellar Makes Eternal Lasting]] and [[Splendid Dust of Ancient Suns]] as they escaped the [[Capital|Forerunner capital]] during [[05-032 Mendicant Bias|Mendicant Bias]]' [[Battle of the capital|attack]]. These fields were sealed against the vacuum of space and could be merged with one another.<ref name="cryptum"/>
