The Forerunners originally evolved in and colonized the [[Milky Way]] galaxy, organizing themselves over a large number of terrestrial planets and colonizing multiple worlds, as well as forming a structured military which included both naval elements and ground forces. The Forerunners were of sufficient technological capability to construct super luminary vessels, create sophisticated artificial intelligences and set up massive super weapon networks. They measured their advancements in [[Tiers]].

At some point during their development, the Flood were discovered to have entered the galaxy from an an undetermined extragalactic point of origin, contesting the Forerunners for control of the galaxy. While the Flood sought to assimilate all sentient life, the Forerunners attempted to defend against the Flood threat using several measures to both directly combat them as well as carry out research in regards to their capabilities.  As time progressed, they also began to develop and create super weaponry, specifically the [[Halos|Halo Array]].  As a method of countering the total elimination of all sentient species (the result of triggering the Halos), they began indexing and protecting them from Flood assimilation out of the noble ends to defend all sentient or pre-sentient galactic life.
