a Forerunner Builder, Inspiration-From-The-Domain, and her little Huragok; Far Too Dense.
The Forerunner is less impressive, but I’m still happy with her (she looks like a Forerunner). What I was really focusing my effort on, was the cute Engineer, I really really wanted one and I’m so proud of him. Almost entirely sculpted from Greenstuff

IMO “ancient aliens built the pyramids and taught us agriculture” is a lot less interesting idea than “there were advanced technological aliens on Earth, but they went extinct millions of years before humans evolved.”

Their cities crumbled and were buried, their machines became junk and then dust, and the Earth forgot about them.

What more can you tell me regarding your headcanons surrounding ancient humanity, the precursors, forerunners and the early forerunner period?
Hello again!
I don't have much on the early Forerunner period as that is not a deep passion of mine, though I do know some people on Spacebattles who have thought on the matter.
I also don't have much headcanons for the Forerunners as I haven't felt a need to do so, given the fleshed out lore they have. Other than a continuous joke of Forerunners stop being assholes after befriending humans and the Engineers and Ancestors being friends.
One of my friends has a headcanon that there were plenty of Forerunners who defected from the Ecumene and joined up with humanity or Forerunners simply living on what they called "Joint Worlds" or "Shared Worlds" if I am remembering that right. Basically, worlds along the border of human and Forerunner space where Forerunners and humans live perfectly fine with each other.
I can't think of Ancestor headcanons at the moment without diving into stuff I made for the Old Faith, which I am currently doing a rework of, especially the gods.
But I do have Precursor headcanons to share! But only a few at the moment.
This is one of my oldest Precursor headcanon, but species created by the Precursors named their home worlds after their respective creators.
The Precursor that created humanity was named Tyrene and the Precursor that made the Forerunners was named Ghibalb.
Precursors create entire solar systems (and galaxies depending on their strength) through dance. Tyrene and her twin Yafa created the Sol system together. Typically, Precursors need others to assist them, but the more powerful ones can do it solo.
The universe is actually a Precursor that got messed up after accidently starting the Big Bang and nearly died. They are known as "Goddess" in the Old Faith. I joke with my friends that she's the source of the Master Chief's luck because she likes the green man/she plays the Halo games.
The usage of Star Roads are actually the slowest means for Precursors to do FTL. Other methods are too harmful to the universe after the incident that created the Boötes Void.
Precursors were trying to restore the original 2,000ish galaxies there before the Precursor genocide, which is why they were in the area of the Milky Way for so long.
Speaking about the Precursor genocide, the first Precursor to die was Ghibalb and the last was Tyrene.
Barnard 68 was created through Precursor remains and dust mixing with Forerunner stealth tech.

Lore Thursday — Assembler



The Assembler Sentinel is a variant of Strato-Sentinel like Retrievers and Stewards. It is used in the construction of Forerunner megastructures like Halo installations and portal complexes, such as the portal to the Ark at Voi.

I am now attempting to understand the Halo lore through Bornstellar’s story and… dude how did he have CENTURIES of communication with the Librarian if he fired the Array and she died? Was monitor Chakas with them for hundreds of years or only a few weeks/months?? Bc Bornstellar didn’t become the IsoDidact until late in the forerunners’ story and— AM I STUPID OR IS THIS JUST COMPLICATED?!

Man learning more about the Precursors in Halo makes me think they are the poster child now of why its not always a good idea to try and delve more into "The ones who came before everyone else" Bits.
Cause you got the precursors, who are super advanced they have changed over billions of years taking on new forms like we change clothes. Living out life as more primitive at times to hyper-advanced as others, basically just this race that can literally do whatever it wants and likes enjoying all facets of life including the warts like war, destruction and evil seeing them as inherent to the universe.
Then you got the Forerunners that the Precursors made, considered them for the mantle of guardianship of the galaxy eventually decided 'Nah they don't deserve it." Forerunners get pissed and all out surprised attack the Precursors and commit genocide upon almost their entire race.
Wait...what?
The Forerunners...beat a race that is insanely more advanced than them, a race whose architecture was IMPERVIOUS to conventional weapons until the Halo Arrays were made....which said arrays weren't invented until AFTER the precursors were killed off. Okay okay there is a theory that the precursors let the forerunners win, because hey they don't care about death. They just come back as something else and continue their merry existence and will watch because hey whatever this could be a fun new chapter of existence for a race like us.
Right, alot of the precursors became a molecular dust to prepare to regenerate later on into previous forms. It got corrupted and became the flood that came back to purge the galaxy of all life.
Wait wait, back up...the dust became corrupted? How? Over time it just became corrupted and mutated, giving rise to the flood after being ingested by other creatures later on.
It just...became corrupted over time? A race that is god tier advanced, that changes forms like we breath. Has does this over and over again through the course of BILLIONS of years...how did they fuck that up?
It just did, so what was left of the precursors came back as the flood to consume the entire galaxy and to get revenge upon the Forerunners and ensure none of their creations could ever rise against them again!
...isn't the theory that the precursors let the forerunners kill them
Yes.
So why the fuck do they suddenly have a roaring desire for rampaging revenge after rolling over and letting themselves be killed?
Well because the dust was corrupted it perverted the precursors.
Right right...because they somehow fucked up the thing they were known to be able to do and had done who freakin' knows how many times over the course of billions of years but this was the first time they had ever fucked it up apparently.
Right also the Primordial a living precursor went on about how the flood was revenge for the Forerunners transgressions.
Wait so now there is a living precursor that wanted revenge upon the Forerunners? I thought it was the corrupted dust stuff. Right yeah the corrupted dust.
So why does a living precursor want this too?
Well they spent so long in stasis that it mutated and altered...
For fucks sake...Okay so this god tier OG precursor had to lay down some roaring revenge against the Forerunners directly right?
No they killed it.
God fucking damn it!
(I'm paraphrasing alot, but basically in essence the more i learn about the ancient precursors who seeded life in all the universe of halo, the more I think someone should have taken the writers/producers/executives whoevers pen/storyboard/charts and just told them "No, we aren't delving into that.")

reason #5,371 that the forerunners are the best: they're like the second most powerful species to ever exist in the halo universe and every single one of them could go toe-to-toe with a greek god for levels of dumbassery and pettiness
