| The '''Guardian''' is a [[Forerunner]] construct.<ref>'''[[The Art of Halo 3]]''', ''page 31''</ref> While its role as well as functions are unknown, two of these constructs were last seen escorting a [[Keyship]] to the [[Portal at Voi]].<ref name="origins">'''[[Halo Legends]]''', ''[[Origins]]''</ref>

| ==Behind the scenes==
| |
| {{Quote|The Guardian evokes memories of Compilers (from one of Bungie's previous games, Marathon) and the robes of a High Court Judge - which is fitting because, as anyone who has encountered them can tell you, their judgments are swift and final, and their logic utterly alien.|''[[Art of Halo 3]]''}}
| |
| They bear a strong resemblance to the S'pht [[w:c:marathongame:Compilers|Compilers]] from [[Marathon]] and the Forerunner hologram in [[Epitaph]].

| The Guardian was originally set to appear as an enemy in a ''[[Halo 3]]'' [[guardian Forest|campaign level]] that later became a [[multiplayer]] level ''[[Guardian (level)|Guardian]]'' but was removed, and featured in ''[[The Art of Halo 3]]'' instead. It was stated that the player would have been able to rip out the Guardian's eye beam and use it as a weapon in the [[campaign]] level.<ref>[http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/966/966319p1.html '''IGN''': ''GDC 09: The Halo 3 Level You Never Played'']</ref>
