*The Carrier form of Flood is the [[List of Marathon references in the Halo series|successor]] of the [[marathongame:Simulacrums|Simulacrums]], from the ''[[Marathon]]'' series. The Simulacrums were cybernetic humans made to look like the crew of the UESC ''Marathon'', the only flaw was that they all wore green jump suits, making it easy to distinguish which humans were actually Simulacrums. As soon as you were three meters close to them they would explode, heavily damaging or killing the player.
