The '''IsoDidact''',<ref name="string2">'''Halo: Silentium''', ''String Two''</ref> also known simply as the '''Didact''' or more specifically as the '''Bornstellar Didact''', was an alternate incarnation of the [[Forerunner]] [[Promethean]] supreme commander known as the [[Ur-Didact|Didact]]. Originally a young [[Manipular]] known as '''Bornstellar Makes Eternal Lasting''' or simply '''Bornstellar''', he was transformed into a "copy" of the Didact after being imprinted with the latter's consciousness and memories, taking on the original Didact's identity and role of supreme commander of Forerunner war efforts against the [[Flood]] in the ongoing [[Forerunner-Flood war]]. The IsoDidact intended to serve as a replacement for the Didact, who was at the time believed to have been executed by [[Master Builder]] [[Faber]]. The "IsoDidact" moniker was adopted to differentiate the copy from the original Didact, who was subsequently identified as the [[Ur-Didact]].<ref name="string2"/> The Ur-Didact's madness-induced actions near the end of the war led to his imprisonment for the next 100,000 years, leaving the IsoDidact to lead the Warrior-Servants for the final days of the war. He was also the individual responsible for activating the [[Halo Array]] at the close of the Flood conflict.<ref name="array">'''Halo: Silentium''', ''page 328''</ref> | The '''IsoDidact''',<ref name="string2">'''Halo: Silentium''', ''String Two''</ref> also known simply as the '''Didact''' or more specifically as the '''Bornstellar Didact''', was an alternate incarnation of the [[Forerunner]] [[Promethean]] supreme commander known as the [[Ur-Didact|Didact]].
