'''Lifeworkers''' were the third-highest [[rate]] in [[Forerunner]] society.<ref>'''[[Halo Waypoint]]''': ''[[Halo: Cryptum/Glossary|Halo: Cryptum Glossary]]''</ref> They specialized in all living things and medicine, including experimenting with new forms of life. The highest possible rank achievable by a Lifeworker was [[Lifeshaper]]. [[Earth]], then called "Erde-Tyrene", was at one point an experimental planet under the care of the [[Librarian]], a Lifeshaper and one of the most powerful Lifeworkers to have ever lived.<ref>'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 17 | '''Lifeworkers''' were the third-highest [[rate]] in [[Forerunner]] society.<ref>'''[[Halo Waypoint]]''': ''[[Halo: Cryptum/Glossary|Halo: Cryptum Glossary]]''</ref> They specialized in all living things and medicine, including experimenting with new forms of life.

The Lifeworkers, under the Librarian's control, were responsible for maintaining the ecosystems on [[Installation 00]] and the [[Halo Array]] using them to research, store and index species collected from numerous worlds across the galaxy in the [[Conservation Measure]].<ref>'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 334''</ref> | The Lifeworkers, under the Librarian's control, were responsible for maintaining the ecosystems on [[Installation 00]] and the [[Halo Array]] using them to research, store and index species collected from numerous worlds across the galaxy in the [[Conservation Measure]].<ref>'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 334''</ref> | ||
Lifeworkers | Lifeworker [[form]]s were typically graceful and tall compared to other rates.<ref>'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 330''</ref> Lifeworkers appeared to prefer to float using parts of their armor, as opposed to walking like most Forerunners. This is seen quite prominently with the Librarian and her Lifeworkers on [[Omega Halo]]. | ||
