I need to know about their culture, religous belifes and how they originated, and how much the Forerunners actullay matter in these aspects. I need anything, truth, fiction, salt grains, scutlebutt, and what ever malarkey you have.

Thank You, this is in pursuit of the cracking, and guessing about, the Halo store line.

The Covenant are a group of alien races who share the same religion and beliefs.Their religion is controlled by a species of Aliens known as Prophets, who are the Covenants spiritual and political leaders. The prophets declared humanity an affront to their Gods, and declared a holy war against mankind. As far as their culture goes, we don't know much. We do know that their social structure is a caste system, with certain species (Prophets, elites) being more powerful and privileged than other species (grunts, jackals). Each species evolved on a different planet, but were contacted by, and possibly conquerd by, the Elites and Prophets, who shared the same home planet. As for the Forerunners, we don't know all that much aobut them. The Covenant consider them, and everything they make to be holy, and worship them. All that we know is that the Forerunner were an ancient race who long ago disappeared ,leaving behind their amazingly advanced technology. I'm sure there's a lot more, but i can't think of it right now, hope this helps.

"The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing." Albert Einstein
"You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty." Gandhi

The Covenant are a group of fictional characters, created by Bungie for Halo, and they have no background or History beyond what Bungie writes into the story.

But they still rule!!!

I wanna be an elite SO BAD!!!!


Maybe after Halo 2, Bungie will make "THE COVENANT", a game where you play as an Elite for the Campaign mode, and kill Marines.
