| | '''Constraint fields''' were a form of [[Forerunner]] energy field used to restrain individuals. The interior of a a constraint field was pressurized against vacuum, and a constraint field could be merged with another field. [[Warrior-Servant]]s were capable of generating constraint fields at will; for example, [[Glory of a Far Dawn]] used two constraint fields to secure [[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]].<ref>'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 303-305''</ref> |

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]]''' [[campaign]] level, ''[[Forerunner (level)]]''</ref>{{Ref/Note|The Didact's telekinesis-like ability has not been officially identified as a constraint field. While not used in the same manner as the constraint fields described in ''Halo: Cryptum'', this article assumes that the Didact's abilities are based upon the same or a related technology.}} Constraint fields could also be used for other purposes. 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 [[Mendicant Bias]]' [[Battle of the Capital|attack]]. These fields were sealed against the vacuum of space and could be merged with one another.{{Ref/Reuse|cryptum}} | |
