Talk:Promethean Knight

Variants/Questions
two types? I could have seen one that was glowing blue in the campaign reveal and others glowing orange. Could this be evidence of two variants or even factions?--Theraptor92 16:40, 4 June 2012 (EDT)

I'm sorry I can't answer you're question, but i have one of my own: Are the Knights Forerunners or Forerunner machines?Weeping Angel 14:38, 5 June 2012 (EDT)


 * @Weeping Angel - Cortana says that the first Knight John encounters is "definitely not organic", so I'd assume they're just AI-driven automatons. @Theraptor92 - I'd imagine the blue ones are another model of Knight or a similar but distinct class of Forerunner machines. --Courage never dies. 14:56, 5 June 2012 (EDT)

I was thinking that maybe the knights are some stripped down form of the war sphinxes that the Didact mentions. The seekers that replaced the sphinxes are smaller, so perhaps this is just the combination of that technology with the programming of a sentinel. -- FATGUNN 14:14, 26 July 2012 (EDT)

I was just wondering this - Could the glowing skull be simply used to intimidate the enemy?, i mean I doubt that the Knights are part organic in any way, instead the human like skull (Which could indicate they were used against humans in the past - Possibly the Human-Forerunner War - and considering the timing when it showed the skull, when it had pounced on MC, the skull could be used as psychological warfare, by scaring the enemy, but this is just as thought--Matt98 06:56, 7 August 2012 (EDT)

I would guess the skull belongs to a Forerunner - there's structural differences between the Knight skull and a normal human skull. Maybe the Knights are suits of armor, designed to keep fighting even after the Promethean inside is dead? SPARTAN-347 13:17, 7 August 2012 (EDT)

Well I don't see the forerunners adding to the legion of flood combat forms unless they have to so i doubt that the knights were ever organic. its probably like the huragok where its so advanced it might as well be organic. Jac0bBau3r1995 10:05, 10 August 2012 (EDT)
 * The Knights are probably "AI" in the same way Spark was, alive once but then turned into an AI by the Composer.ArchedThunder 04:33, 27 August 2012 (EDT)
