One of these Keyships, later known as the Dreadnought, would miraculously survive the [[Forerunner-Flood War]] to be found and used by the [[San 'Shyuum|Prophets]], and would later become an integral part of the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] [[Covenant Religion|religion]], as well as power for the Covenant Holy City, [[High Charity (Structure)|High Charity]].

The Forerunner Dreadnought was a geometric and angular warship, sharing many aesthetic features with other Forerunner constructs. Generally, it had a tetrahedral shape, with a forward triangular prow, and attached to it at equidistant points are three similarly shaped struts, to help ground the ship.

The Keyships were an integral part of the [[Forerunner-Flood War]], and were used as warships in confrontations such as the [[Battle of the Maginot Sphere]], and were also used to travel through [[Portal]]s to the [[Ark]]. Although their weapons systems are unknown, one Keyship was found and used by the [[San 'Shyuum]] during the [[Sangheili-San 'Shyuum War]], and was far superior to [[Sangheili]] vessels of the time. At the time of the [[Human-Covenant War]], the same Dreadnought's shielding was completely impervious to even the heaviest of [[UNSC]] shipborne armaments, specifically the [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon]] systems. The Forerunner Dreadnought has been known to carry over 1,000 beings,<ref name="Harvest262"/> which is believed to be only a fraction of its full carrying capacity.

It consists of thousands of rooms, many of which are docking bays and control rooms, including a command chamber where the Prophet of Truth resided which was many stories high. It had many lift rooms which were similar to the ones in the towers in the ''[[Halo 3]]'', level [[The Covenant (level)|The Covenant]].
