Good for you. Unfortunately I ran out of cookies, so I'm afraid I'm just going to give you a gold star.

For a picture of the Drinniol, check back in Marathon. The concept art of the Drinol for Halo 2 was near identical to what the old Drinniols in Marathon looked like. See these pictures:

I've been around these parts for almost eight years now...wow! Maybe I should be concerned about that...

Google Image Search is your friend

The drinol is actually found in an older Bungie game which had similar or greater popularity in the MAC gaming community. It's name was Marathon, and the Driniol was one of your enemies...in Conversations From the Universe, the drinol is mentioned as a Sharique (or something along those lines). It was going to be in Halo 2, similar to the juggernaut, but was most likely cut in the huge cut in Halo 2 material after E3 03'.

We don't know that the Sharquoi is also the Drinol. And it was spelled Drinniol in Marathon (two n's).

I'm starting to think that script that was "RELEASED" wink wink for Halo 3 a long time ago is real cause they mentioned Drinols a bunch. In the script they are much larger then a hunter, 3 times the size and used in giants battle by the covenant.

Whether or not the script is real, it doesnt make the people talking about it any better. It's still annoying hearing "Well, I ave a script for the thrid game. It's not that great", or "Yeah, you're all wrong because the Halo 3 script says ____________"

Its a good speculation reference.
Thats what forums are ment for, speculation, predictions and talk of the game. If you're just gonna tell people what they shouldnt be saying in a forum then it completely detroys the point of a forum.

and i dont think the script sucks, its awesome

Drinols are mentioned before halo 2 came out. In the old weekly updates there was a monster that nearly made it in game that could flip warthogs and was released by the covenant. Its name was censored but I think its pretty obvious its a Drinol.

Well has any1 ever seen a drinol. I remember that i would go to ask.com and click on images.I would type in grunt and it would show me a image of a grunt with his mouth open. I would click on it and it took me to a website that showed the characters and what role they take in the game. i seen all the character 1 of them they dindnt have a picture of and there was 1 that said drinol. i remeber that he was pretty big but not as buff as a hunter. He had abnormal fist as in they were bigger than usual. There head was shaped differently than all the characters in the game. But what really caught my attention was his fist. I cant reall remember but i think he had 2 finger be they look more like claws. I read his role and they said they were supposed to be in halo2 but they might put him in a future role.

now that i hear about drinols on this website i tried to look it up again and it said "we were never here go away:. Now i just did it today now they took off the picture of the drinol. I swear i seen it. Just remember that it has bigger fist than usual,not as buff as a hunter but slightly bigger than a brute. Its head is shaped differently like more of an oval shape. Despite if you dont believe me every1 will see that i am correct because i even remember telling my cousin about the drinol and explaining how it looks like.


Wow ummm, you need to sort your facts out.

The drinol was included in teh halo 2 special edition disk in teh characters they didnt put in. You cant even compare this guy to a hunter, let alone say he is smaller than him. Drinols are HUGE enraged beasts, they were too big to be included in halo 2.
