The sad truth is we no next to nothing about the Gravemind. Facts are: he can use Halo's teleport system, he is very, very old, he knows what Halo's purpose is, he appears to be in control of the flood, and he is very curious as to what has happenned in the 100,000 years he's been on Halo. Everything eslse is pretty much conjecture. We don't know if he's good or bad, we don't know what his motive and intent is, we don't know what he knows, and we most of all don't know what he plans to do with Cortana.

The Gravemind is a Flood intelligence, in the first and second Halo all the flood types are completely mindless and set on destroying anything in its path. But in Halo 2 you meet the Gravemind a form of flood that is intelligent one that can talk and all that jazz. But I got the impression that the Gravemind had been around for a really long time and it knew alot of stuff about the Halos and the forerunners. It then sends the Chief and the Arbiter on missions to "stop the key from turning". Which i took to mean as to stop the Halos from being activated. well thats the Gravemind as i see it. Oh and its insanely huge and could squash us if it wanted.

The gravemind is a huge flood mass built from the bodies of fallen worriers. His role in the Halo trilogy is that he is the mind and controling power of the flood. He is also the one who convinced the Arbiter to stop the control room from starting the ring, and sent the Master Chief to High Charity to see if the index was there, which it was, but more likely to clear High Charity for his flood to land, but that's pure speculation.
