===Origins===

{{Quote|That project was a walled garden. No one on the outside should have even known about it.|LV106, regarding the Iratus project.{{Ref/Reuse|S2StoryHub}}{{Ref/Reuse|S2Intel}}}}
Iratus was created by the [[Lux Voluspa]] company as part of an effort to research artificial intelligence creation utilizing brain donors from species aside from [[human]]ity. This included [[Jiralhanae]] donors; a decision considered by researchers "LV038" and "LV106" as something that was "always going to draw some attention eventually."{{Ref/Reuse|S2StoryHub}} The Lux Voluspa facility was ultimately breached by a cyberwarfare attack, with an intrusion package deployed using internally-sourced encryption and displaying a Jiralhanae retrieval signature. The originators of this attack were later indicated to be the [[Banished]], who were able to steal the Iratus [[Armored matrix|AI matrix]] from the facility.{{Ref/Reuse|LuxVoluspa}}

===Banished possession===
After [[Cortana]]'s defeat at [[Zeta Halo]], the Iratus AI was present inside the Banished shipbreaking facilities on [[Camber]]. When [[SPARTAN-IV program|Spartan-IV]]s [[Sigrid Eklund]] and [[Hieu Dinh]] were deployed to the facility, they were able to trap Iratus inside of Dinh's [[neural interface]], compromising his armor and cognitive functions. Eklund was ultimately able to commandeer a [[Banished Phantom]] back to the [[Avery J. Johnson Academy of Military Science]] to seek aid from friendly forces.{{Ref/Reuse|S2StoryHub}}

High Auxiliary [[Sloan]] of the [[Created]] would eventually discover the existence of Iratus while it was under Banished possession, contemplating if he should be considered friend or foe. He would devote resources to keeping watch over the AI.{{Ref/Site|Id=precipice|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/story-shard-precipice|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Story Shard: Precipice|D=15|M=04|Y=2023}}
Upon arrival at the Academy, Spartan [[Laurette Agryna]] took the injured Dinh indoors where Iratus aggressively introduced himself. Agryna found schematics of the Banished [[Breaker|facility]] on Camber through him and uploaded it to the Academy's combat simulation. In an attempt to irritate Iratus to leave Dinh's armor and go after another Spartan instead, she ordered her Spartans to hit the [[War Games|simulation]] in order to save Dinh's life. Iratus eventually left Dinh for another Spartan and was successfully contained along with a Banished archive.


===UNSC control===
Now a [[Personal AI]] contained by the [[UNSC]], Iratus was casually used by Spartans in training simulations. On occasion, Iratus encouraged Spartans to join the Banished.{{Ref/Game|Id=Hi2|Hi|[[Personal AI]] dialogue|Quote=You should take your talents to the Banished!|Quotee=Iratus}}
After [[Cortana]]'s defeat at [[Zeta Halo]], Iratus was utilized to oversee Banished shipbreaking operations on [[Camber]].{{Ref/Twitter|Id=IratusFF|Halo|1646899697448017922|Halo|Quote=Uniquely created using a Jiralhanae brain donor, Iratus oversaw Banished shipbreaking operations on Camber where Spartan Dinh would trap the AI in his neural interface while Spartan Eklund hijacked a Phantom to escape to the Avery J.

In an attempt to irritate Iratus to leave Dinh's armor and go after another Spartan instead, she ordered her Spartans to hit the [[War Games|simulation]]s in hopes that Iratus would attempt to enter the neural interface of one of these Spartans.{{Ref/Game|id=HIInter|HI|Interference}} While Spartan Dinh was unconscious, Iratus forced him to relive several painful memories in an attempt to break him.{{Ref/Game|Id=EM|HI|Mindfall|Detail=Enemy Mind cinematic}} However, the plan was ultimately a success and Iratus eventually left Dinh for another Spartan, only to be contained within one of the academy's servers along with a Banished archive.{{Ref/Reuse|HIInter}}
 
At Commander Agryna's request, an instance of Iratus was isolated from the rest of the AI and was put into quarantine before being replicated and distributed to qualified Spartan-IVs as a [[Personal AI]] to test within War Games.{{Ref/Reuse|S2Intel}} On occasion, Iratus encouraged Spartans to join the Banished.{{Ref/Game|Id=Hi2|Hi|[[Personal AI]] dialogue|Quote=You should take your talents to the Banished!|Quotee=Iratus}}
 
===Unbound===
[[File:HINF - Iratus Unbound.png|250px|thumb|right|Iratus taking control of a suit of Mirage IIC armor.]]
{{Quote|The entire history of the Spartan program. Your weaknesses. Your failures. And now...all of it...belongs to the Banished!|Iratus, after revealing his control over the secret ONI facility.{{Ref/Reuse|Unbound}}}}
However, Iratus managed to release himself from the academy's servers and, using Dinh's memories, he learned about a hidden [[ONI]] [[ONI Section Three|Section Three]] facility buried beneath the academy.{{Ref/Game|Id=Unbound|HI|Site Unseen|Detail=Unbound cinematic}} After multiple intrusion attempts,{{Ref/Site|Id=S3Intel|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/echoes-within-intel|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Halo Infinite - Echoes Within Intel|D=14|M=05|Y=2023|LocalArchive=Halo Infinite Story & Intel}} he finally managed to take control of the ONI facility, including a suit of abandoned [[MIRAGE-class Mjolnir|Mirage IIC]] armor left inside a [[Brokkr Armor Mechanism]].{{Ref/Reuse|Unbound}} Spartan Dinh, hearing strange noises coming from the door leading to the ONI facility, enlisted the help of a Spartan recruit to investigate.{{Ref/Game|Id=Vault|HI|Site Unseen|Detail=Vault Lines cinematic}} Upon their arrival at the laboratory where the Mirage IIC armor was located, Iratus revealed that he had broken containment and claimed that all of the [[Spartan]]s' secrets now belonged to the Banished.{{Ref/Reuse|Unbound}} Following this, Iratus began to infect the armor and neural interfaces of the academy's Spartan trainees, taunting them by projecting [[Holography|holograms]] of his face on their faceplates.{{Ref/Site|Id=S4Intel|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/infection-intel|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Halo Infinite - Infection Intel|D=29|M=06|Y=2023|LocalArchive=Halo Infinite Story & Intel}}
