Manipular

From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

Manipular was the Forerunner title given to adolescent citizens. These young members of society typically followed their families' lineage going into their particular rate.[1] As Manipulars had not yet made the mutation to a first-form, they were identified as "Form Zero" in their names.[2] Manipulars formed divisional groups known as Maniples.[3]

Trivia

The terms "Manipular" and "Maniple" are derived from the ancient Roman military unit maniple, "manipular" being the adjective form of the word.[4]
