Well first off,I have to say I don't think I have ever seen anyone rage like that to a character app.Secondly, I'm well aware that Forerunners nor their AIs are not Covenant but the text book definition of affiliated is being close in a formal or informal way. This guy is working with the Covenant thus he's affiliated with them and for the rank of oracle it's more or less an informal title due to the fact the Covenant worship the Forerunners and their AIs as though they were gods(hence why I put it in parenthesis). Which brings me to my next point, the floating balls are capable of taking care of themselves. You fight countless of sentinels,which are dumb downed monitors,through out the original trilogy and 343 managed to kill Johnson and put up a fight against Master Chief and the Arbiter. I'm well aware the focus of the rp isn't about the humans anscension to the mantle. The mantle is just a basic forerunner belief and provides a character motivation for mine and it drives him to do his actions.
Now I'm just wondering,how is a story supposed to be told if it lacks antagonist? A basic story formula that can be held true to novels,movies,short stories,etc. is the protoganist has a conflict which is cause by an antagonist.I understand the rp is about missions,and all Halo/military rps should, but my intent with making this character was to have the missions be more connected and possibly have more creative ideas with them form. My personal opinion, if all of it is random and every characters victories and loses hold no meaning to the other characters then what's the point of having it?
If he doesn't get accepted, I understand and I'll just work on a human character but this was just an idea that popped into my head; and thought it would be fun to try him out on here. I'm not trying to be condescending in my response; I'm simply just trying to clear things up.
