Gravemind is the controlling intelligence behind the parasitic Flood hive.<ref>http://bungie.com/Games/Halo3/content.aspx?link=Halo3AboutPage</ref> In this way, he appears similar to a puppet master. Gravemind is located far beneath the [[Library]] of [[Installation 05]] and has tentacles that reach for miles. Gravemind also seems to harbor an intelligence approaching omniscience, since he appears to be capable of absorbing the knowledge of all Flood hosts. | Gravemind is the controlling intelligence behind the parasitic Flood hive.<ref>http://bungie.com/Games/Halo3/content.aspx?link=Halo3AboutPage</ref> In this way, he appears similar to a puppet master.

The Gravemind we see in the game appears to be capable of utilizing Halo's teleportation grid to transport anything, and indeed himself (or at least a part of himself), anywhere on the ring and beyond to a limited distance. Being a Flood organism, how he uses the grid has been speculated on. The most common theory is that since he holds [[2401 Penitent Tangent]], [[Monitor]] of [[Installation 05|Delta Halo]] captive, that he can use it to access the teleportation field on [[Delta Halo]]. Gravemind boards High Charity, the Covenant Holy City, by means of boarding ''In Amber Clad''. Once Gravemind crashes ''In Amber Clad'' into a wall of High Charity he uses UNSC Pelicans that were aboard the Ship to spread the Infection throught the city, as seen on the level "High Charity" during the opening cut scene. Still, there is much more about this enigmatic character that we do not know. It can be seen that he somewhat has two mouths. An outer mouth like an elite and an inner mouth like a human. | The Gravemind we see in the game appears to be capable of utilizing Halo's teleportation grid to transport anything, and indeed himself (or at least a part of himself), anywhere on the ring and beyond to a limited distance.

Gravemind more than once speaks in rhyme, specifically in Iambic Pentameter. In the post-credits end cinematic of ''Halo 2'', Gravemind recites this verse to [[Cortana]]: | Gravemind more than once speaks in rhyme, specifically in Iambic Pentameter.

*The Gravemind that Master Chief meets in High Charity/The Ark, is actually the second one he meets. The one on Installation 04 was destroyed with the ring; when the Flood reached High Charity, it infected all in sight and formed a new Gravemind which accounts for the newer personality. | *The Gravemind that Master Chief meets in [[High Charity]]/[[The Ark]], is actually the second one he meets.
