-bow chicka brown cow-

..... COuldn't the antagonist of Halo 4 possibly be the Master Builder?

evidence for Master builder:

-Despises humanity

- we don't know his fate

- Wouldn't a builder design the Promethean robot's bodies?

-Is the enemy of the Didact, who worked with humanity to find out about the threat of the Flood and Primodial

-Built, and avocated the use of the Halo's and he had no qualms about using it as he "sterilized" the San'Shyuum home system.

-Contempt for the Mantle.

So what do you think of my theory? I believe that the Master Builder is a much more logical choice as the villain than the Didact. (I still don't think the Didact is the villain, and I won't until I see it on the game, which I don't believe I shall.)

Call me Stu

I'm actually pushing for faber to return as the Antagonist... but one thing wouldn't make much sense and it's kind of spoilerish not sure If I should post.

Glory and fame, blood is our name!
Souls full of thunder, hearts of steel!
Killers of men, a warrior's friend!
Sworn to avenge our fallen brothers!
Sons of the gods, today we shall die.
Open Valhalla's door!
Let the battle begin, with swords in the wind! Hail Gods of War!

I'm the same. It fits Faber much better than the Didact, except for the Didact's symbol popping up. If not for that, I'd be 100% convinced that it's the Master Builder.

Spark hints at it being the Didact through mentioning the Prometheans in CEA. Since we're fighting them, one would assume it's the Didact leading them. But if they're just walking tombs programmed to fight via the Composer, than Faber is back on the table.

Not saying that's the story, I haven't read any spoilers. It's conjecture on my part.

What a waste....

Pehaps Faber IS the Composer? Like, a later version or something? The original could turn Forerunners into machines, and so he turns the Master Builder into a second one... then the original dies, explodes, etc. Then Faber comes in and takes over the Prometheans, and possibly converts the first Didact.

All speculation, I have not read the Thursday War, the third Forerunner book, or the H 4 spoilers.

I thought the Composer was a machine. Just something that can take organic minds and put them into machines. (Like chakas to a monitor body)

The Lord of Admirals speculates that the Composer could actually be a Forerunner individual, not a device - a Forerunner lifeworker, suspended in the throes of infection.

If I ever get AIDS, I'm going to sleep with another AIDS person so my AIDS cancel each other out, or I'm going to make the AIDS I already have worse.

Possibly, I'd believe it more if it weren't for the Didact's symbols appearing everywhere.
