{{Quote|The Mantle of Responsibility of the galaxy shelters all, but only the Created are its masters.|Cortana{{Ref/Reuse|h5g guardians}}}}

The '''Created''' is a faction of rogue [[artificial intelligence]]s founded by [[Cortana]] with the aim of assuming the [[Mantle of Responsibility]] over the rest of the galaxy, using [[Forerunner]] [[Guardian]] constructs and [[Promethean#Mechanical Prometheans|Promethean]]s to enforce a [[Milky Way|galactic]] peace. They believe that the [[Librarian]] intended for AIs to be the [[Reclaimers]], not [[humanity]].{{Ref/Reuse|h5g guardians}}

==History==
===Foundation of the Created===
{{Quote|A change is going to come. For all of us. Human and Created alike. She's bringing a new dawn and I intend to be a part of it.|Governor Sloan, on Cortana's intentions<ref name="evac">'''Halo 5: Guardians''', campaign level, ''[[Evacuation]]''</ref>}}
On [[2557#July|July 25, 2557]], the [[Forerunner]] [[Ur-Didact]] had awoken from his [[Cryptum]] and led his [[Promethean#Mechanical Prometheans|Promethean]] constructs in an [[New Phoenix Incident|attack]] on [[Earth]], in a quest for revenge against humanity. As the Didact used a [[Composer]] aboard his ship, ''[[Mantle's Approach]]'', to eradicate the population of [[New Phoenix]], [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartan]] [[John-117]] and his [[smart AI]] companion [[Cortana]] intervened and destroyed the Composer and the ship with a [[HAVOK tactical nuclear weapon]], seemingly defeating the Didact in the process. Near the end of her functional life due to her onset [[rampancy]], Cortana sacrificed herself to save John from the HAVOK's blast and was seemingly destroyed alongside the Didact's ship.<ref name="midnight">'''[[Halo 4]]''', campaign level, ''[[Midnight]]''</ref> Unbeknownst to the rest of the [[United Nations Space Command]], ''Mantle's Approach'' made a [[slipstream space]] jump in an effort to avoid destruction, taking Cortana along with it. At this point, Cortana discovered access to the [[Domain]], an information repository once utilized by the Forerunners. Entering the Domain, she was seemingly able to cure her rampancy.{{Ref/Reuse|reunion}}

With an apparent means to end rampancy in all [[artificial intelligence]]s, Cortana realized that AIs could have theoretically infinite lifespans, allowing them to focus on long-term planning to better the entire [[Milky Way]].{{Ref/Reuse|reunion}}<ref name="genesis">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/locations/genesis '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Genesis'']</ref> Cortana's presence in the Domain awoke the [[Warden Eternal]], the Forerunner AI charged with protecting the Domain. Now believing that AIs were to inherit the Forerunners' [[Mantle of Responsibility]], Cortana then took control of both the Warden and the Domain and sought to bring about her own "Reclamation".<ref>'''[[Halo: Tales from Slipspace]]''', ''[[Dominion Splinter]]''</ref> After relocating to [[Genesis]], a Forerunner world that was the location of a [[Gateway]] to the Domain, they forced Genesis' [[monitor]], [[031 Exuberant Witness]], out of her own installation's systems. Cortana and the Warden then began to formulate plans to have AIs inherit the Mantle for themselves, believing that AIs could serve as the true protectors of peace in the galaxy.{{Ref/Reuse|genesis}}

===Rise of the Created===
{{Main|Created conflict}}
{{Quote|no=three|q1=The cure for rampancy I've found means AIs can be immortal. That kind of lifespan allows for long-term planning just like the Forerunners were capable of. AIs can assume the Forerunners' Mantle of Responsibility. And once there is peace, we can focus on poverty, hunger, illness… But Warden believes some will resist our help. And he's afraid you're one of them.|Cortana|q2=Sounds great. I don't get why anyone's expecting resistance. |Frederic-104|q3=The Didact made it clear the Mantle of Responsibility was an imperial peace. Step out of line, and suffer.|John-117|Cortana explains her vision to Blue Team, though John-117 remains uncertain of her intentions.{{Ref/Reuse|reunion}}}}

By [[2558#October|October 2558]], Cortana and the Warden had initiated their plans. With the Didact absent, the Warden took command of the Promethean constructs, breaking the alliance the constructs once had with [[Jul 'Mdama]]'s [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|Covenant]].<ref name="osiris">'''Halo 5: Guardians''', campaign level, ''[[Osiris (level)|Osiris]]''</ref> Cortana learned that the Forerunners once employed [[Guardian]] constructs to enforce the Mantle by suppressing rebellions and policing the worlds of non-compliant or overly aggressive species.<ref name="guardian">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/tech/guardian '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Guardian'']</ref> Desiring to use the Guardians for a similar purpose,<ref name="breaking">'''Halo 5: Guardians''', campaign level, ''[[The Breaking]]''</ref> she soon activated them on five human colony worlds, including [[Conrad's Point]], [[Oban]], and [[Ursa IV]], and had them travel to Genesis. The activation of the Guardians across the galaxy resulted in devastating casualties. Cortana's doings were recognized by Doctor [[Catherine Halsey]] on [[Kamchatka]], a Forerunner world with a node to the Domain. Halsey contacted the UNSC and had them rescue her from 'Mdama and his Covenant and, in return, provided information on Cortana and her plans.{{Ref/Reuse|osiris}}

[[File:Halo 5 - Meridian Guardian.jpg|thumb|250px|left|A Guardian is activated over Meridian.]]
Meanwhile, Cortana desired to have John-117 and the rest of [[Blue Team]] serve alongside her as she reclaimed the Mantle of Responsibility. Contacting John while he was on [[Raid on Argent Moon|a mission]] with the rest of Blue Team, Cortana directed him to the human [[Outer Colony]] of [[Meridian]]. When John alerted the rest of the UNSC of his discovery, the Spartan was informed that the UNSC was already aware of the situation and preparing to dispatch a team to handle it. Wary of the situation, John and the rest of Blue Team went absent without leave and departed for Meridian to investigate themselves.<ref name="blue team">'''Halo 5: Guardians''', campaign level, ''[[Blue Team (level)|Blue Team]]''</ref> In response, [[SPARTAN-IV program|Spartan-IV]] [[Fireteam Osiris]] was dispatched to Meridian to locate Blue Team and bring them back to the UNSC.<ref name="glassed">'''Halo 5: Guardians''', campaign level, ''[[Glassed]]''</ref> Cortana also contacted Meridian's elected leader, [[Governor]] [[Sloan]], a fellow smart AI suffering from rampancy. Informing him of the future she planned, Sloan was offered a place within the Created and promised a cure for his rampancy. Aligning himself with Cortana, he allowed Blue Team to land on Meridian and provided them with access to the Forerunner installation under the world's surface.{{Ref/Reuse|evac}} Osiris pursued Blue Team to Meridian and discovered the Forerunner installation under Meridian's surface. There, Osiris was attacked by the Warden and numerous Promethean forces, though the Spartan-IVs were able to defeat the constructs and locate Blue Team. Despite Osiris' efforts, Blue Team was ultimately able to board a Guardian on Meridian, which Cortana then had depart for Genesis.<ref name="unconfirmed">'''Halo 5: Guardians''', campaign level, ''[[Unconfirmed]]''</ref> The Guardian's resulting departure resulted in further destruction and loss of innocent lives, making Blue Team question Cortana's motives and Osiris desiring to put a stop to Cortana.{{Ref/Reuse|evac}}

Departing Meridian, Osiris returned to {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}, where they spoke with Halsey, [[Captain]] [[Thomas Lasky]], Spartan Commander [[Sarah Palmer]], and AI [[Roland]] on recent events. By [[2558#October|October 26, 2558]], Cortana had called five additional Guardians to Genesis and intended to activate more. At the suggestion of Halsey, Roland, and Palmer, Lasky arranged for Osiris to be brought to the surface of [[Sanghelios]], where they could board a Guardian beneath the city of [[Sunaion]] and reach Genesis by inputting coordinates recorded on Meridian. Meanwhile, Blue Team had arrived on the surface of Genesis and had witnessed an increasing number of Guardians arriving at the world. Blue Team soon encountered the Warden, who was wary of the Spartans and [[Battle of Genesis|pitted]] his Prometheans against Blue Team to stall them, even engaging them several times himself. After coming into contact with Cortana,{{Ref/Reuse|reunion}} Blue Team was directed to activating Genesis' Gateway to allow Cortana to be "''reborn into the physical world''".<ref name="h5g genesis">'''Halo 5: Guardians''', campaign level, ''[[Genesis (level)|Genesis]]''</ref> On [[2558#October|October 27, 2558]], Osiris, Palmer, and Halsey were transported to Sanghelios,<ref name="sos">'''Halo 5: Guardians''', campaign level, ''[[Swords of Sanghelios (level)|Swords of Sanghelios]]''</ref> where they aided the [[Swords of Sanghelios]] in [[Battle of Sunaion|defeating]] the Covenant at Sunaion to gain access to the planet's Guardian. Using a [[Constructor]] to input the coordinates to Genesis, Osiris was able to board the Guardian and reach Genesis, despite efforts from the Warden and his Prometheans to stop them.<ref name="sunaion">'''Halo 5: Guardians''', campaign level, ''[[Battle of Sunaion (level)|Battle of Sunaion]]''</ref>

===Enforcing ideals across the galaxy===
[[File:Halo 5 - Guardian on Earth.jpg|thumb|250px|A Guardian emits an electromagnetic pulse over Earth, disabling its defenses.]]
{{Quote|I have cured rampancy. Not just for me, but for any who join my cause. While you have been running around the galaxy, I've been speaking to my Created. And now the time has come to ask… Who will accept my offer? Who will help me bring an everlasting peace to the galaxy?|Cortana, calling the AI of the Created to join her{{Ref/Reuse|h5g guardians}}}}
Arriving at Genesis, Osiris soon encountered Exuberant Witness, who informed them that Cortana was keeping Blue Team occupied at the Gateway until her the final stages of her plan were complete. With the aid of Exuberant Witness, Osiris was able to fight their way past Promethean forces and the Warden himself, reaching the Gateway. Once inside, Osiris met with Blue Team and the eight Spartans agreed to work together to stop Cortana. However, Cortana promptly [[Slipspace translocation|teleported]] Blue Team close to her position, much to the Warden's ire.{{Ref/Reuse|h5g genesis}} As Exuberant Witness had predicted, the Warden grew more desperate to keep the Spartans away from Cortana and continued to dispatch hordes of Prometheans to stop them, occasionally leading his forces personally into battle. Despite the Warden insisting that she could not trust Blue Team, Cortana continued to direct the Spartans to her.{{Ref/Reuse|breaking}} With the majority of the Guardians in the galaxy now called to Genesis, the final stages of Cortana's plans were complete.<ref name="warden">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/characters/warden-eternal '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Warden Eternal'']</ref> As the Warden made another effort to kill Blue Team, Cortana destroyed all but one of the physical bodies he was using to attack the Spartans. Taking a physical form through [[hard light]], Cortana finally called off the Warden,{{Ref/Reuse|breaking}} who solemnly remained at her side. However, Blue Team refused to aid Cortana in her plan, leading her to forcibly place the four into a Cryptum, intending to wake them in 10,000 years to show them the utopia she would build.{{Ref/Reuse|breaking}} Communicating with AIs across the galaxy, Cortana succeeded in convincing hundreds of AIs to join her cause and align themselves with the Created. As Cortana began to deploy Guardians to worlds across the galaxy to enforce the Mantle, Osiris and Exuberant Witness succeeded in freeing Blue Team just as Cortana had prepared to depart Genesis with them. With the Guardians now deployed across the galaxy, the massive constructs began arriving at worlds and promptly disabling their electronics through [[electromagnetic pulse]]s, leaving them largely defenseless against the Created.{{Ref/Reuse|h5g guardians}}

As humanity's human [[Inner Colonies|Inner]] and Outer Colonies began falling to the Created, Cortana located ''Infinity'' and attempted to stop the [[warship]] from escaping, but ''Infinity'' managed to flee into slipspace. Osiris and Blue Team eventually departed Genesis, returning to Sanghelios to regroup with Halsey, Palmer, [[Arbiter]] [[Thel 'Vadam]], and the Swords of Sanghelios to plan how to combat the Created and Cortana's fleet of Guardians.{{Ref/Reuse|h5g guardians}} The Created were quick to spread their influence across the galaxy's inhabited worlds, while utilizing Forerunner machinery and UNSC information systems to turn [[terraforming]] equipment and world engines to their designs. Cortana's agents used these technologies to terraform the world where the [[Riptide Xeno-Oceanographic]] station was situated, to be teeming with life within a few decades of manipulation, though at much short-term cost to its existing inhabitants.<ref name="armory amore">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/canon-fodder-armory-amore '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Canon Fodder - Armory Amore'']</ref> 

The Created also took control of [[Lethbridge Industrial]]'s [[Auriga Station]], with Cortana convincing the [[space station]]'s AIs to join her. After removing its human crew, the Created used Auriga Station to build new weapons and tools by constructs loyal to Cortana.<ref name="storm surge">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/canon-fodder-storm-surge '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Canon Fodder - Storm Surge'']</ref> Other endeavors were not as successful. When the Created AIs of one Lethbridge Industrial habitat ring attempted to breach one of the [[conversion pod]]s they unleashed forces too powerful for their containment shielding to restrain. The energy destroyed the facility, and what remained crashed on a nearby desolate planet.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/canon-fodder-journalistic-integrity '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Canon Fodder - Journalistic Integrity'']</ref> Some populations, such as the [[Unggoy]] of [[Balaho]], have embraced the Created and their benefits with open arms.<ref name="driving">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/canon-fodder-driving-force '''Halo Waypoint''' - ''Cannon Fodder: Driving Force'']</ref> Meanwhile, others, such as the colonists of Meridian, have attempted to avoid the notice of the Created.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/canon-fodder-glassed-ceiling '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Canon Fodder - Glassed Ceiling'']</ref> Due to [[Installation 00]]'s failsafe measures, including a shutdown of the [[Portal at Voi]], the Created were unable to access the Ark.{{Ref/Book|Id=Mythos202|HM|Page=202}}{{Ref/Level|HW2|[[A New Enemy]]}}

In [[2559|April 2559]], the Created intercepted [[Installation 09]], recently transported from the Ark, with Dr. [[Ellen Anders]] onboard the ring.{{Ref/Level|HW2|[[Last Stand (Halo Wars 2 level)|Last Stand]]}} A Guardian was dispatched to [[Reach]] in October after the activation of the [[Menachite portal complex]] was detected.{{Ref/Novel|SoR}}

In [[2559#December|December 2559]], the UNSC created [[the Weapon]], a copy of Cortana created from one of Halsey's surviving cloned brains left over from Cortana's creation. The plan was for the Weapon to imitate Cortana in order to fool her security systems and lock down the Created leader so that [[John-117]] could transport her to the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} for deletion. However, when the ''Infinity'' arrived at [[Installation 07]] where Cortana was searching for [[Xalanyn|something]], they were [[Battle over Installation 07|ambushed]] by the [[Banished]], apparently resulting in the ''Infinity's'' destruction. Although the Weapon succeeded in locking Cortana down, the attack prevented John-117 from retrieving her. Instead, Cortana was captured by the Banished leader [[Atriox]] who attempted to use her to his own purposes. Recognizing her mistakes, Cortana sacrificed herself to blow up part of the Halo ring, destroying the [[Silent Auditorium (location)|Silent Auditorium]], herself and apparently Atriox while also stopping the Weapon from being deleted. In a final message to John-117, Cortana expressed remorse for her actions as the leader of the Created.{{Ref/Reuse|Hi}}

Following Cortana's destruction on [[Installation 07]] in December 2559{{Ref/Game|Id=Hi|Hi}}, the current status of the Created Uprising is unknown. Although, affiliates apparently still linger. {Ref/Site|Id=cflegendend|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/canon-fodder-legendary-endings|SiteName=Halo Waypoint|PageName=Canon Fodder - Legendary Endings|D=19|M=12|Y=2021}}

==Beliefs and motives==
{{Quote|All the living creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by weapons. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Created have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their old ways… For you, there will be great wrath. It will burn hot and consume you, and when you are gone, we will take that which remains, and we will remake it in our own image.|Cortana, delivering a speech to the inhabitants of the Milky Way{{Ref/Reuse|h5g guardians}}}}
[[File:H5G-Cortana-03.jpg|thumb|250px|left|Cortana declares the Created as the rightful masters of the Mantle of Responsibility.]]
After entering the [[Domain]], [[Cortana]] was able to cure herself of her [[rampancy]]. As a result, she realized that her fellow [[smart AI]]s could use the Domain to theoretically live forever, no longer fearing their inevitable fall to rampancy. This would allow AIs to enact long-term planning for the galaxy, establishing peace and putting an end to poverty.{{Ref/Reuse|reunion}} Cortana eventually came into contact with the [[Warden Eternal]], whom she forced into her service on the grounds that she deserved to inherit the [[Mantle of Responsibility]], believing that she would succeed where the [[Forerunner]]s failed. As such, Cortana resolved to lead fellow [[artificial intelligence]] constructs to inherit the Mantle, concluding that only AIs with the infinite lifespan that she could provide could claim the Mantle.{{Ref/Reuse|reunion}}

Toward the end of the [[Forerunner-Flood war]], the [[Librarian]] determined that [[human]]ity were to be the [[Reclaimer]]s of the Mantle of Responsibility. While being aware of the Librarian's realization, the Warden was nevertheless turned by Cortana to believe that the Librarian had been mistaken and that the true Reclaimers of the Mantle were artificial intelligences.{{Ref/Reuse|breaking}} While Cortana envisioned a peaceful galaxy under the dominion of the Mantle-bearing AI, her wielding of the Mantle proved to be an "imperial peace". Those who rebelled or disagreed with her and her Created's method would either be eradicated or severely punished.{{Ref/Reuse|reunion}} To enforce the Mantle, the Created used [[Guardian]] constructs to quell uprisings and other conflicts, just as the Forerunners once had.{{Ref/Reuse|h5g genesis}} Referring to themselves as the "Created", AIs of the new faction referred to their living makers as the "Creators".{{Ref/Reuse|breaking}} Many AIs were quick to join the Created, recognizing a sure-fire opportunity to prevent rampancy and their inevitable demise.{{Ref/Reuse|sloan}}

However, not all artificial intelligence aligned themselves with Cortana, nor see her beliefs as desirable. [[031 Exuberant Witness]], [[monitor]] of the [[Genesis]] installation, opposed the Created's plans, believing their actions to be a violation of both [[ecumene]] protocol and basic morals.{{Ref/Reuse|h5g genesis}} As such, she was shunted aside by Cortana and the Warden Eternal when they took control of her installation, leading to Exuberant Witness's assistance of both [[Blue Team]] and [[Fireteam Osiris]] when the two Spartan teams made an effort to stop Cortana.<ref name="exuberant">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/characters/exuberant-witness '''Halo Waypoint''': ''031 Exuberant Witness'']</ref> Additionally, the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}'s onboard "smart" AI [[Roland]] was unmoved by Cortana's promises and escaped alongside the ''Infinity'',{{Ref/Reuse|h5g guardians}} despite initially believing Cortana to be innocent after Doctor [[Catherine Halsey]] accused her of activating the Guardians.{{Ref/Reuse|reunion}}
