We are all going to get banned aren't we?

We don't know if they made the flood or let them out of some cage. For all we know the forerunners made the flood to stop the precursors or Ancient Ancient humanity made them.


But as of now we aren't sure of the relation between the two other than there is a relation

We can rule out the Humans and the Forerunners.

During the precursor Era? no we can't becuase it is a twist that we wouldn't expect. All cryptum was, was a gaint list of things we though could never happen and laughed at all written in canon. After such a mockery we should get out of the sandbox and be more open minded.

Precursors did make the Flood so it's kind of possible. I'm not to familar with the whole Cryptum story, so don't flame.

Evidence:
- Precursors and Flood both are enemies with the Forerunners
- Precursors made Flood (maybe not true)
- Gravemind and Precursors are reletivaly the same size (unless the Precursor/s control it's mind)
- both (Captive and the Mind) were conversing with Medicant Bias for 43 years
-both evidently converted Bias against the Forerunners
-both are feared above all else by Forerunners



Added some more for you.

I don't mean to de-rail the thread, but doesn't it seem the flood really really [b]Hate[/b[ the forerunners? You think they would hold a bitter grudge towards humanity, but they just despise the forerunners. I might end up making a thread about this shortly.

Flood are NOT Precursors!

  • 03.27.2011 5:56 PM PDT

We do not know yet.

What is a precursor? Do they have the same appearance of a flood or something.

  • 03.27.2011 7:49 PM PDT

In Cryptum, was that containment unit the Didact was so intrigued about holding a precursor? Because it was rather small to be holding something like the gravemind we see in the games.

I am Field Master Avu Med 'Telcam, Servant of the Abiding Truth, and I have many brothers.

A god who creates tools is still a god. It is not for us to impose qualifications upon the divine or presume to guess its intentions.

My vote is with infected Precursor that purposely did so to spawn the flood plague to take revenge on the Forerunners.

I think that the prisoner merges his consioucness with the flood and so the gravemind exists.

The universe is a big place. Who says that the forerunners made them. Why would they precede to destroy all that they worship?

My theory? That the precursors indeed made them, it was an effort to create an A.I that could never die, it could infinitely learn without forgetting.

The precursors are a long dead civilizations that preceded forerunners in technological advancement. Forerunners being Tier 1 and precursors tier 0. They had the ability to transit time and make indestructible materials that could cycle through a planets' crust without changing its shape.

They supposedly made forerunners and humans in their image, so i guess they are similar looking to us.

  • 03.28.2011 5:07 AM PDT

I beleive in cryptum is said that the prisoner was 15 meters tall, 10 meters wide and a little less than that in depth.

Well judging by the description of a Forerunner and a human and how similar they are, Precursors were probably somewhere in between.

The way the two species act in comparison honestly reminds me of the difference between angels and humans. More biblical reference? :P

The forerunners really aren't that nice as they are portrayed eons later. It's like yin and yang, Even the good has some bad and even the bad has some good.
That being said i would rather be bad and have some good than be good and have bad.


But back on topic; the flood could have been made by the forerunners or another race the precursors created and used to fight the precursors. There are so many stories you we really can't rule out any.
