Lets talk about Moonbabies. What position of power did Tartarus play in Halo 2? Clearly, he was the head honcho, big shot representitive of his species on the political floor. I assume he would have belonged to the Alpha pack, the pack that largely controls everything about his species. And, after his death, what happened to his hammer? Somebody pick it up as a trophy? What about the moonbabies in general by Halo 3? Do you think they had another head honcho on the political floor or did they just stall that whole thing over when they started really going up the ladder with the prophets? Because we caught not even a glimpse of one with Truth, and in Halo 2, it was pretty obvious that tarty had a lot of dealings with Truth. And, do you think moonbabies have two hearts? They come from a 2g world, and on average sit at about 8-9 feet tall. That much pressure on a body that tall would create a tremendous amount of strain on a heart. Robert Wadlow was the tallest Human ever recorded, sitting in at something like 9 feet, and he had a lot of problems with blood circulation as well as heart trouble. Speaking of gravity, do you think moonbabies are so feared as terrestrial fighters because of how easy it would be for them to do just about anything on another world that isn't 2g?

Your guess is as good as mine. [quote]And, after his death, what happened to his hammer? Somebody pick it up as a trophy?[/quote]Actually, I don't know. It'd actually be pretty cool if in Halo 5 you go to Vadam and find it mounted on the wall in Vadam Keep. [quote]What about the moonbabies in general by Halo 3?

  • Ever since Reach, from the moment I saw Brutes, one word came to my head on what they looked like. Moonbabies. And, ever since then, it's stuck.

  • I've been here since the beginning. But the Reach Brutes weren't worthy of the title. So I called them Moonbabies instead.

  • Yeah, that's true. Im just glad Reach did something right and gave them a close resemblence to the H2 form.

  • No they didn't, they looked like LotR orcs.

  • I was talking about the grey fur, and overall toughness. Halo 3 ones were weak.
