From the beginning, they were meant to be "a class of aliens that acted as idiot savants towards technology," and were meant to be able to decipher [[Forerunner]] technology easily and allow a glimpse into what made the Forerunner technology so special. As far as gameplay, the designers wanted a race that were less aggressive to populate the world in a more passive way, making ''Halo'' feel more alive. The general idea of the Huragok was to be "a character meant to be passive, almost puppy like in nature," and make the players feel bad if they killed them.<ref name="evolved">[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=EngineerEvolved '''Bungie.net''': ''Engineer Evolved'']</ref>
