Chakas was a chamanune human living on Earth in approximately 100,000 BCE. He, along with Riser, was part of a collective of guides based in Marontik.[1]
Biography
After the Forerunner Manipular known as Bornstellar Makes Eternal Lasting arrived in Marontik, Chakas joined Riser and the young Forerunner on an expedition to the Djamonkin Crater, where Bornstellar found the Didact's Cryptum. Here, thanks to a geas implemented by The Librarian, he along with Riser sang a pre-programmed sound code that authorized the opening of the Cryptum.[2] This awoke the Didact, whom they later followed on his ship first to Charum Hakkor and later to Janjur Qom, the San 'Shyuum homeworld, in the hope this would spark a memory imprinted by the Librarian that could help the Didact. On the way, they also began discovering memories of their ancestors who fought in the human-Forerunner wars, imprinted as part of their geas.[3] On Janjur Qom, Chakas was imprisoned by the Master Builder along with Riser and the Didact.
Later, Chakas and Riser traversed a war-torn Halo installation, where they would face a multitude of obstacles, including the Flood, rogue AIs, along with the "testament" of the last Precursor known as the Timeless One.[4]
Personality
When first meeting Bornstellar, Chakas was apparently be enthusiastic about mysteries and searching for treasure.[1] Chakas did not seem intimidated by Bornstellar at first, but somewhat resentful for dragging him into the adventure later on. On the long run, he did not appear to be upset with Bornstellar, and he was said to have changed very much since leaving Erde-Tyrene, especially after examining the memory imprints of his ancestors.[3]
