Numerous monitors followed and inspected the human survivors of the [[Onyx Conflict]] in November [[2552]], notably pricking [[Halsey]] in the right thigh with a needle-like protrusion and testing her blood. [[Linda-058]] destroys the monitor before it can leave believing it had attacked Halsey. Halsey suggests that it could detect exhaled ketones and was simply monitoring her because she was hungry.{{Ref/Reuse|gl8}} The [[SPARTAN-III program|Spartan-III]] [[Lucy-B091]] later encountered the [[Huragok]] [[Prone to Drift]] which utilised a monitor to inspect her. | Numerous monitors followed and inspected the human survivors of the [[Onyx Conflict]] in November [[2552]], notably pricking [[Halsey]] in the right thigh with a needle-like protrusion and testing her blood.

The monitors are described to be a matte-gray cylinder no larger than a wine bottle{{Ref/Reuse|gl040}}, and are capable of similar anti-gravity propulsion like Sentinels. [[Kelly-087]], when holding a monitor, remarks that it "feels like it's not here. It doesn't weigh anything". | The monitors are described to be a matte-gray cylinder no larger than a wine bottle{{Ref/Reuse|gl040}}, and are capable of similar anti-gravity propulsion like Sentinels.
