Proto-Graveminds have appeared several times, in varying stages of size and potency.
Proto-Graveminds have appeared several times, in varying stages of size and potency.
The first recorded Proto-Gravemind was discovered on a Forerunner [[Shield World (Halo Wars)|Shield World]], during a mass Flood outbreak in [[2531]]. Judging by its huge size and its connection to several [[Flood Colony|Flood colonies]], it is likely that this Proto-Gravemind was on the verge of becoming a Gravemind. This Proto-Gravemind was destroyed by UNSC forces led by [[John Forge]] and Spartan [[Red Team]].


The first Proto-Gravemind encountered in the Halo Series was in the ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' level, [[Keyes]]. [[SPARTAN-117]] found this form in the control center of the ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]''. It is possible that the Proto-Gravemind would have allowed the Flood to use the ''Truth and Reconciliation'' to spread beyond Alpha Halo. This Proto-Gravemind assimilated [[Captain Jacob Keyes]] and attempted to learn from him the coordinates of [[Earth]]. Keyes fought with every ounce of willpower he had to prevent the Flood from gaining this information, burying the knowledge deep down within him and forcing the Proto-Gravemind to systematically discard every other memory he possessed. [[SPARTAN-117]] arrived at the Proto-Gravemind just before the Flood form was about to finally extract the memory it wanted, and punched through the Captain's skull in order to retrieve his [[neural implants]], thereby robbing the Proto-Gravemind of the knowledge of Earth's location for good. The Proto-Gravemind was destroyed shortly thereafter by the [[Covenant]] Special Ops.<ref>''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'', level [[Keyes]]</ref>

Yet another Proto-Gravemind was present on the prisoner ship UNSC [[UNSC Mona Lisa|''Mona Lisa'']], shortly after the destruction of Installation 04. Flood onboard the ship were attempting to access the ship's FTL drives by collecting and absorbing the knowledge of UNSC pilots into this Proto-Gravemind. It was destroyed when [[Ngoc Benti]] killed it with fragmentation grenades.
