{{Quote|You can't fault this new Didact. I outwitted his original twice before, you know. I forced him into exile, practically sealed him into his Cryptum, and when he returned from that exile, I lured him, hooked him like a silly fish-and sent him to an even darker fate. I ask you, who's the greater strategist? If anything, this new Didact is a sharper and more capable character, certainly now.|[[Faber]], the [[Master Builder]], assesses the IsoDidact.<ref>'''Halo: Silentium''', ''page 248''</ref>}} | {{Quote|You can't fault this new Didact.

[[File:Didact.jpg|thumb|170px|[[Cortana]]'s semi-inaccurate visual interpretation of the IsoDidact.<ref group="note">Since the pictured Forerunner individual is shown activating the Halo Array in ''[[Origins]]'', it can be inferred that this is Cortana's imagination of the IsoDidact. However, as stated by [[Frank O'Connor]] in the episode commentary, the visuals shown in ''Origins'' are not entirely accurate as a result of Cortana's incomplete data stores and her progressing [[rampancy]]. The Didact's depiction in ''Origins'' has only five fingers per hand; canonically, both Didacts had six fingers on each hand. His armor most closely resembles the first set of armor the Ur-Didact is shown wearing in the ''Halo 4'' terminals. As an additional discrepancy, the individual in ''Origins'' is seen activating the Array from a Halo installation's control room, accompanied by two other Forerunners, whereas the IsoDidact fired the rings from Installation 00's citadel.</ref>]] | |||
