A "'''Reclaimer'''" (Latin: '''''Homo Sapiens Augeous''''')<ref>''[[Bestiarum]]''</ref> is an individual who, whether by chance or by [[Wiktionary:precedent|precedent]], has been placed in charge of activating a [[The Halos|Halo]] super-weapon. The individual must journey to retrieve the Halo's activation key (the [[Index]]) from the ring's [[Library]] and then use it to activate the [[Halo Array]]. It has also been demonstrated that it is the role of a Reclaimer to activate Forerunner technology on installations such as [[Installation 00|the Ark]] or the [[Shield World (Halo Wars)|Shield Worlds]]; it is also true that other, undiscovered Forerunner constructs also require a Reclaimer to operate in some fashion lay scattered across the galaxy.
A "'''Reclaimer'''" (Latin: '''''Homo Sapiens Augeous''''')<ref>''[[Bestiarum]]''</ref> is a title used to refer to an individual of a species who, whether by chance or by precedent, has been chosen to be the successors of the Forerunners. So far, the term has referred primarily to those placed in charge of activating a Halo super-weapon. The individual must journey to retrieve the Halo's activation key (the [[Index]]) from the ring's [[Library]] and then use it to activate the [[Halo Array]]. It has also been demonstrated that it is the role of a Reclaimer to activate Forerunner technology on installations such as [[Installation 00|the Ark]] or the [[Shield World (Halo Wars)|Shield Worlds]]; it is also true that other, undiscovered Forerunner constructs also require a Reclaimer to operate in some fashion lay scattered across the galaxy.


The exact qualifications of a Reclaimer are not entirely clear; however, it appears that only a [[Humans|human]] or [[Forerunner]] can be a Reclaimer. Many or even most fans consider the word "Reclaimer" to mean any individual of either species, but as this term is used many times throughout the Halo games and literature with no clear-cut definition, this cannot currently be proven.
