Forerunner: Difference between revisions

Line 170:

*The Forerunner also bear a striking similarity to Larry Niven's Pak Protectors (Ringworld Series), whom also built a Ring-like Station but mysteriously disappeared, leaving the Ringworld to go off balance from its own sun. It has long been speculated that Larry Niven's Ringworld Series inspired Halo's setting, [[Halo]].

*The very first ideas and concepts on Forerunner structures and technology was that it would be sleek and curved to give it an advanced feel. However Bungie wanted the structures to feel as if they could stand the test of time and redesigned them to be solid and monolithic. The smooth, near-organic design would later be adopted by the Covenant in their architecture.

*[[Covenant]] [[Luminaries]] (Actually stolen Forerunner equipment designed to detect other Forerunner objects) can detect humans, previously mislabeled as "Forerunner Artifacts", leading to initial [[Human]]-[[Covenant]] contact.

*[[Covenant]] Luminaries (Actually stolen Forerunner equipment designed to detect other Forerunner objects) can detect humans, previously mislabeled as "Forerunner Artifacts", leading to initial [[Human]]-[[Covenant]] contact.

*Latin for Forerunner is ''[[Precursor]]'', which, ironically is the given name of the race that the Forerunner revere (As stated in the Beastiarium).

*The Forerunner empire was composed of over a billion citizens.
