*[[Mendicant Bias]] refers to the Chief as a Reclaimer through the [[Terminals]] in ''Halo 3''.
*[[Mendicant Bias]] refers to the Chief as a Reclaimer through the [[Terminals]] in ''Halo 3''.
*''[[Halo Wars]]'' is the only Halo game (apart from ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'', which featured no interaction with Forerunner technology) in which no characters are explicitly identified as Reclaimers. However, [[Ellen Anders]] could almost certainly be classified as a Reclaimer, as she activated the Forerunner artifact at the [[Relic]] site, was kidnapped by [[Ripa 'Moramee]] and forced by the Prophet of Regret to activate [[The Apex|Forerunner technology]] on [[Shield 0459]], precisely the way Miranda Keyes and Sergeant Johnson were used by Tartarus and the Prophet of Truth, respectively in the original trilogy.

*It is possible that 343 Guilty Spark does not recognize Reclaimers as individuals, but instead believes that every Reclaimer is the same being. When talking to Master Chief in [[Installation 04]]'s Control Room, Spark says, "Last time, you asked me, if it were my choice, would I do it? Having had considerable time to ponder your query, my answer has not changed."<ref>'''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''', opening cutscene of ''[[Two Betrayals]]''</ref> It seems that Guilty Spark was referring to a question posed to him by a Forerunner - very probably the [[Didact]] - prior to the activation of Installation 04 one hundred thousand years prior. This theory is not entirely solid, however; in the cutscene before you fight Tartarus in ''Halo 2'', Spark warns the Brute Chieftain to "Please be careful; this '''Reclaimer''' is delicate.". Another theory: Spark's statement to the Master Chief could just have been a momentary quirk; a result of his instability somewhat like humming in battle. Another more complex idea is that since all humans seem to be able to be classified as Reclaimers, and Spark when speaking to the Chief (a Reclaimer) on [[Installation 04B]] states "You are the child of my makers, inheritor of all they left behind. You ''are'' Forerunner." Spark views the Chief as a continuation of the Forerunners, and the "same" as Didact. Other characters also reference the humans as the same as the Forerunner in some fashion. Spark states Humanity holds the Forerunner's duties (Reclamation, etc.), Mendicant Bias holds himself in debt to Humanity when he cannot find any Forerunner to redeem himself to, and the Gravemind views the Forerunner as Humanity's "Father" and holds Humanity responsible for their sins.

*"Reclaimer" is one of the [[Rank (Halo: Reach)|ranks]] in ''Halo: Reach''.

*Because of legal reasons, the Reclaimer symbol in [[343 Industries]] media has been changed to a much more vague resemblance of the original ''Marathon'' symbol.
