smart, interesting, seems out of place.


Official fan of Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty, (Problem with that?) Halo, and Bungie, also a total gaming junkie.

I've been thinking about this for a while, and constantly finding references of it via B.net forums and Halopedia, so I thought it would be a good idea to archive every one we can find. I'll start off with these:

There are 7 Species that make up the Covenant

343 is a multiple of 7

686 is a multiple of 7

2401 is also a multiple of 7, and is also divisible by 343

2 + 4 + 0 + 1 = 7

There are 7 Characters in the Halo Series that can be played at least 2 times

There are 7 Flood Forms in Halo 3

After the Halo Rings were fired, Offensive Bias's fleet outnumbered Mendicant Bias's 6:1. 6 + 1 = 7

There are 7 letters in Spartan

There are 7 letters in Arbiter as well

Jorge-052: 5 + 2 = 7

Post anything in Halo that is related to 7, and I'll add it to the OP.

7 species that make up the Covenant?

Prophets
Engineers
Grunts
Jackals
Drones
Brutes
Elites
Hunters

I don't know about you, but that's 8, and yes, Prophets count, they started the Covenant, they are part of it, and if you say Battle units only, Engineers do not count, they do not battle, thus making it 6 battle units and 2 harmless.

Huragok are slaves, and hate the Covenant.

And since when are Prophets harmless? Regret didn't look to harmless in Halo 2, and the Prophets also beat the best warriors in the Covenant.

Don't worry, you're still your mom's favorite Bnet member.

Here's a good start.

"If I'm not back in five minutes... just wait longer."

How did you forget 7 Halo rings?

Just about every species in the Covenant hate the Covenant except for Elites, Prophets, and some Brutes.

Seriously Oak, Ive been doing this -blam!- for 16 years, gimmie my Friggen starter Pokemon and dont call me till im the champion! ¬_¬

Id help try to catch all these, but the issue is bungies been around a while, and by the time ive found + Listed all possible references, ill be old, and i wouldnt mind having a family and kids and grandkids and a mortgage and all that :P

It goes back some time apparently, there was a text based game they made that had endings like "Your jumped by 7 men in cloaks - your never seen again" :P
