I know this sounds silly but hear me out 
Now imagine at the end of the new halo you help mendicant bias( if he is in it) and at the end when he tells you to connect him to this terminal because he tells you that this is how to revive cortana but instead it’s one of the most powerful forerunner machines and it’s looks like a dragon because why not they’re awesome and this could provide an epic boss battle that we always wanted

Can always have Space Dragons if we end up going to new worlds or installations, which we probably will. Hopefully it would be tougher, smarter, and more satisfying to kill then the Guta, or like any of Halo’s AI.
What about Chinese dragons as the Chinese dragon represents the path to enlightenment. Dragons are considered divine creatures that bring abundance, prosperity, and good fortune. It is a symbol of power, excellence, boldness, heroism, and nobility.
Plus also they could of tied it in by having the machine guard humanity for a while to ensure humanity was safe from all threats then went to lay dormant far away but not before it was sighted by ancient human civilisations
How could ancient humanity see him as a dragon when he was buried in the sands of the Ark for over 100,000 years?
> How could ancient humanity see him as a dragon when he was buried in the sands of the Ark for over 100,000 years?
I don’t think anyone said that. I think that the OP, more or less, suggested that Bias should help his atonement by taking on the form of a giant dragon to protect Humanity from the inevitable Flood attack to come.

I never said mendicant bias was the dragon I was saying that he wanted to be in control and become the dragon but he needed chiefs help

> I like how creative you are, but I still disagree. It may be a symbol of X for them, but as far as most people are concerned, they’re horrible creatures. They main point is that they haven’t been used in Forerunner designs and would look different and misplaced from the rest of their society.
European dragons are evil but there are different variations of dragons, also we still know nothing about the forerunners technology and what mysteries remain buried
If the Seeker is mendicant bias…it reminds me of a wyvern.
Yes A promethean/forerunner dragon would be cool.
Something similar to that would be pretty cool. If you fought something like a forerunner War Sphinx I’d throw my money at 343.
No
You are in the mindset of all the other anime fans who thought having a Katana in multiplayer was an amazing idea and should be integrated into every Halo game and actually be usable.
Sure Dragons are nice and dandy in a mythological Universe. Halo is anything but that, it’s universe as a whole is gritty and futuristic.
Um a dragon… come on this is sci-fi not a fantasy… if your gonna classify it as a “dragon” please say airborne saurian or lizard design… rather than dragon. Those details can be the different between a chinese new years dragon and Saphira, from Eragon, or Smaug, from the Hobbit…
Anyway I don’t think Forerunner design fits that description maybe a Avery Design, like the war sphinx or seeker…
I think there might be a big betrayal in halo 5, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was because Master Chief let his guard down trying to revive Cortana

Wouldn’t it be nice to have some fantasy creatures in halo and break the barriers down between both genres
The reason why I just said “dragon” was to let people have an open mind about it but I would like to see a cybernetic forerunner Chinese style of dragon. Like a cybernetic version of rayquaza from Pokemon and like what I said before we only really know about the forerunner’s architectural design. Also there are forerunner cybernetic dogs and a giant bird( war sphinx ) so why couldn’t they do a dragon
Rather than thinking of how can it fit into forerunner design, just imagine what a forerunner dragon would look like.

>Doesn’t watch anime at all and doesn’t care for it.
>Thinks Katanas are cool and agrees with others’ ideas that it could be incorporated as a new melee weapon that expands on the Halo 3 Sword-fighting system.
But hey, I’m just one person, I’m sure everyone that does want to see that Sword-fighting system brought back and expanded up is really just an anime fan that somehow ended up liking Halo. By the way, that was sarcasm.
Forerunners existing makes as much sense as current man-made myths about ancient astronauts and that the Greek gods of the Pantheon were actually aliens. Not to mention we’ve already been given examples in the books and games about the exotic creatures that lived on Forerunner worlds. There are flying squid in the jungles of Requiem in Halo 4, and there were supposed to be giant flying whales too. How are something like Dragons, at all out of the question here?
> Forerunners used avian creatures in their designs more often (in their *designs) and fits better with the image they have established. Most birds are nice, dragons are aggressive and angry. The Forerunner civilisation is anything but aggressive, the fact that the military is considered their second lowest tier, just ahead of a non-Forerunner species, speaks to that.

> * I meant armor. Sorry.
Keep in mind that most things in human mythology are there because of Forerunner influence on early human culture.

The Prometheans are a good example of that
