Hence, why Prometheans- it was only when the Didact needed more that he began composing humans, unwillingly. the didact even wished to have been oen himself, but notes that he has a resistance to the flood after experimenting on himself to find a cure for the flood.Also as far as I can remember Master Chief mostly (maybe only?) fought human prometheans in H4 as it is visible by their digital human skull when they scream.I wonder if there's a clear difference between human prometheans and promethean prometheans. Are the latter actually seen in-game?Depends. The appearance of forerunners greatly varies, but it is largely hinted that human and forerunner have the same evolutionary background- one theory being that the precursors created a species that eventually diverged into the two.However, Halo 4 Terminals indicate ;to me) that those that guard the Cryptum are the Forerunner Prometheans, and hold their duty in a composed form.

That's what the portal on Mantle's Approach was for- to transport the data to the next stage of production.I never new that was a factory in 03, thanks, i think thats enough to help my question.Well remember that 03 itself had a portal to the Composer Forge. It coul be there that the factory was.I say one on Requiem because it was the Pentagon for the Warrior-Servants, the main HQ. It had the resources to hold off Seige for several years, likely centuries. It isn't too at fetched to think it could make Prometheans, just lies how the array had factories to build Sentinels in times of crisis.So there could be multiple factories on each installation?You see a bunch in Halo 2- in the skyboxes on Sacred Icon and Quarantine Zone.Huh, i never new that those 2 were factory, alright i think that helped with my question, thanks!

Promethean 'factory'

Are the latter actually seen in-game?Depends. The appearance of forerunners greatly varies, but it is largely hinted that human and forerunner have the same evolutionary background- one theory being that the precursors created a species that eventually diverged into the two.However, Halo 4 Terminals indicate ;to me) that those that guard the Cryptum are the Forerunner Prometheans, and hold their duty in a composed form. But all are in artificial form either way, I imagine the skull is decorative. But the ones you fight in Spartan Ops are likely to be human, when considering that Jul 'Mdama has command of Prometheans that were composed at New Phoenix, and then the hints were getting about Spartan Strike.If you're interested, I could link a couple of topics on HaloArchive about this kind of speculation for you.Just curious, i know they die in dust but is it possible that they come back to life in multiple ways?This is kind of answered in the campaign. Cortana notes that the essence left after the death (That a watcher uses to resurrect) is a data packet that contains the information to be used to make a Knight body for the AI. So in a way, yes. The Watchers can build a new body/ teleport one in within a limited timespan (Note, this is only seen on Requiem and it coul be possible this was only available near a Promethean 'factory') before the data is lost.QuotePromethean 'factory'There were more then one promethean factory? i thought the composer was the source of making prometheans?No. Te composer renders a biological form into a digital one, which is then stored on Installation 03 to be put into a Knight body- you can see the composed essences of humans in Halo Escalation. That's what the portal on Mantle's Approach was for- to transport the data to the next stage of production.I never new that was a factory in 03, thanks, i think thats enough to help my question.Well remember that 03 itself had a portal to the Composer Forge. It coul be there that the factory was.I say one on Requiem because it was the Pentagon for the Warrior-Servants, the main HQ. It had the resources to hold off Seige for several years, likely centuries. It isn't too at fetched to think it could make Prometheans, just lies how the array had factories to build Sentinels in times of crisis.So there could be multiple factories on each installation?You see a bunch in Halo 2- in the skyboxes on Sacred Icon and Quarantine Zone.Huh, i never new that those 2 were factory, alright i think that helped with my question, thanks!I you look at the skybox at the beginning of SI, you see one get shot down by a plasma bolt. You then adventure through this crashed factory in Quarantine Zone.
