Talk:High Charity

Covenant Planets?
I know that High Charity is the moving capital of the Covenant, but are their any planets? I know theirs a homeworld for every species...but does anyone have any idea what they are?--JohnSpartan117 14:19, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Not a clue.--prophit of war 01:14, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Hopefully Bungie will one day shed some light on this.--JohnSpartan117 05:37, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
 * There's Joyous Exultation in GoO. --Dragonclaws 06:29, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

I think thats a ship
 * If you are refering to High Charity, yes, that's stated in the article. If you mean Joyous Exultation, I highly believe it is stated to be a planet in the book. Please source the page number you are basing this upon. --Dragonclaws 02:51, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Flood base?
It could be possible that the flood use High Charity as a base

They Are.

Is this confirmed, i know it says in the halo 3 that you enter high charity, but is it realy confirmed?? Campaign Obsessive 10:41, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Forerunner structure?
I think it is an abandoned forerunner cityship, and was found and taken over by the covenant who used it as a holy city due to its forerunner orgins.


 * No information to confirm this so it isn't wiki-able. Until you can find a real source that confirms this, it is irrelevant to Halopedia. --Forgottenlord 05:20, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

I think it is without a doubt a covenant structure. The Council chambers, Mausoleum, and Steps of Silence are to huge and to specific to Covenant society to be forerunner. The Keyship/Dreadnaught and the Two large stone wall within the council chambers are the only forerunner structures i've seen. ProphetofTruth 19:27, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Halo 3
Didn't High Charity crash on The Ark? When it exploded, why didn't it destroy it?Royce 20:27, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

High Charity is one tough, Flood-Infested cookie. Having crashed into a frigate and then crashing onto an immense Forerunner structure, it survived it all. Seeing that most of the Covenant's technology is reverse engineered from the Forerunner's, its quite possible that High Charity is impervious to such damage. 5748 PrimaryCipher 03:09, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

He meant why didn't The Ark detonae when High Charity exploded. I think High charity crashed somewhere within hte foundry in the centery, and if you looked at it, it wasn't exactly intact. Also, the core is the size of a halo. High Charity exploding might have destroyed a halo, but it probably only did a number on the ark. ProphetofTruth 01:12, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

High Charity size
I think High Charity has to be pretty larger than only 350 kilometers: look at it floating near Delta Halo, a 10000 kilometers diameter structure, it would be totally dwarfed by the ring if it was that large. My guess is that it has to be at least 600 kilometers in diameter, otherwise to small. Spirit of Fire 22.27 17 October 2007

Power Source
I thought during Halo 2 when Prophet of Truth escaped in Forerunner Ship High Charity lost power.So how did the Flood give it power to slipspace to Earth and the Ark?Yuhi33 17:59, 21 October 2007 (UTC) The City was massive, its more then likely that it had its own power source while the dreadnaught powered the stardrive and slipspace capacitors. Cortana said she answered the Gravemind's questions. So I think that since the flood probably don't exactly requre central air and life support that the Gravemind used Cortana to re-route systems and repower the cities engines. Oh and did anyone else notice the Arbiter's Mausoleum and the what I assume was the Council Chambers in the distance? ProphetofTruth 02:36, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
