Builder Security was under the command of [[Master Builder]] [[Faber]] and often served as his personal military force. Originally, Builder Security only consisted of [[Forerunner]]s that were a part of the [[Builder]] [[rate]]. However, [[Warrior-Servant]]s that abandoned their rate began to enlist in Builder Security after the first exile of the [[Ur-Didact]]. The Master Builder would occasionally have dissenting voices removed by his loyal Builder Security forces.<ref>'''Halo: Silentium''', ''pages 90-91''</ref> The father of [[Maker-of-Moons]], for example, was executed by Builder Security for intervening at the trial of his daughter. | Builder Security was under the command of [[Master Builder]] [[Faber]] and often served as his personal military force.
