Guardian Sentinel
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Template:Ratings Template:Forerunner Infobox
The Guardian was a Forerunner Sentinel located at the Ark.[1] They bear a slight resemblance to Compilers from Marathon, a previous Bungie game. They were set to be seen in Halo 3, but were removed, and featured in The Art of Halo 3. They resemble the hologram in the Halo 3 Multiplayer map Epitaph. They are believed to be, or be similar to, the Guardians at the top of the towers in Sandtrap and Sandbox, though no confirmation exists so far.
The Guardian Sentinel was originally supposed to appear as a fighting enemy in a Campaign mission that later became the Multiplayer map Guardian. The player would have been able to rip out the Guardian's eye beam and use it as a weapon. [2]
Trivia
- The Guardian Sentinel has a striking resemblance to the large hologram in Epitaph.
- It also greatly resembles S'pht Compilers from Marathon.
- Interesting, the picture in The Art of Halo 3 seems to depict it with a cape behind it; whether this is an actual cape, or just part of the art, is unknown.
- The walls in Sandbox have a form on it that bear resemblance to the guardian sentinel.
- The towers that control the mines on the Halo 3 map Sandtrap are believed to be Guardian Sentinels, this however is unlikely because the mines are Brute-made, and it would be Forerunner technology would not control Brute equipment.
