| '''Gemini''' is a ''[[Halo 2]]'' [[multiplayer]] level, added to ''Halo 2'''s [[Maptacular Pack]], based on the level Duality from [[Marathon]]<ref>"the end of the ancient '''duality'' of the Covenant is truly at hand."</ref> set on ''[[High Charity (Structure)|High Charity]]''. It is one of the smallest ''Halo 2'' maps.

| ==Summary== | | ==Summary== |
| Gemini is considered as being the Prophet's retreat. It is somewhat of an unusual level, as it consists of a closed-quarter outside area and an open inside area. Teleporters can warp players up to two small balconies on the top of the inner area. Another teleporter warps players to the outside and back. There is a wide array of weapons from close ranged [[Brute Shots]] and the [[Energy Sword]], to [[Carbine]]s and a [[Beam Rifle]]. An [[Overshield]] can be found in front of the [[Prophet]] statue. | | Gemini is a [[Halo 2]] [[multiplayer]] level, based on the level ''Duality'' from [[Marathon]]. Set on [[High Charity]]. |
| | |
| Another interesting feature is the addition of doors; the doors make you feel like you're in the levels [[Gravemind]] and [[High Charity]]. It is pretty rare to find classic doors in a multiplayer level like this; Gemini is in fact the only multiplayer map that features these doors.
| |
| | |
| The statue of the [[Prophet]] in about the middle of the map is probably a founder of the [[Covenant]] and what appears to be a natural tree. Outside, the map features five Covenant [[Phantom]] docks and what appears to be another natural tree. In the background behind the Phantom docks you can see the [[Forerunner Dreadnought]] that the [[Prophet of Truth]] used on the ''Halo 2'' level High Charity to get to [[Earth]], this is the only multiplayer map to show the [[Dreadnought]].

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *Gemini is one of the twelve signs of the Zodiac and is represented by twins.
| |
| *Some believe the symbolism of the Prophet and the Halo ring represents the Prophets' role as providers of the Holy Rings to the Covenant.
| |
| *Gemini can be spotted in Campaign mode in ''Halo 2''. On the level Gravemind, when you exit the High Council Chamber and you get near where [[Thel 'Vadamee]] was tortured, look to the left, and in between the two giant towers with the eye-shaped purple design, you will see a smaller tower with the exact shape as the Gemini map.
| |
| *There are two spires that appear in the levels Gravemind and High Charity, but the player is unable to destroy their bases or knock them over.
| |
| *This is one of only two maps in the Halo series to have blue teleporters instead of green, the other map being [[Cold Storage]].
| |
| *Outside looking down over the edge of the platform it is possible to get down and run around on the spikes far below.
| |
| *The map's name and description are a reference to the Marathon multiplayer map Duality, on which Gemini is based.
| |
| *The level itself has a striking resemblance to the level "Ex Cathedra" from ''[[Marathon (Video Game Series)|Marathon 2: Durandal]].''
| |
| *Gemini is the only multiplayer level in the Halo Trilogy in which you can see the [[Forerunner Dreadnought]].
| |
| *The tree in the center of the map bears a striking resemblance to the tree seen in the multiplayer level [[Warlock]] and the ''Halo 2'' campaign levels [[Delta Halo (level)|Delta Halo]] and [[Regret]]. It is unclear, however, if the tree in '''Gemini''' and the trees on [[Delta Halo]] are the same species or not.
