'''Seekers''' were a type of [[Combat skin|fighting suit]].
==Overview==
Functionally similar but more advanced than the [[war sphinx]]es used by the [[Warrior-Servant]]s during the [[human-Forerunner wars]]. These seekers were longer and more streamlined than the [[Ur-Didact|Didact]]'s war sphinxes, and were equipped with more powerful weapons, movement and defensive capabilities. They lacked the "face" that adorned the command cabin of a war sphinx.<ref>'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 195''</ref>
==Operational History==
During the [[Librarian]]'s expedition to [[Path Kethona]], the crew of ''[[Audacity]]'' used two lightly-armed seekers to carry out a groundside mission.<ref>'''Halo: Silentium''', ''page 136''</ref> The [[Lifeworker]]s routinely used seekers while indexing the lifeforms of the galaxy during the [[Conservation Measure]], including the operations on [[Earth|Erde-Tyrene]].<ref>'''Halo: Silentium''', ''page 19''</ref>

In the final years of the [[Forerunner-Flood war]], the [[Ur-Didact]] was revived from his [[Cryptum]]. He soon made his way [[Janjur Qom]] where several Seekers engaged and quickly destroyed his war sphinxes.<ref name="c195">'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 195''</ref>
