We've touched on the stories of Faber the Master Builder here and there in recent videos, but today we're taking a deep dive into the life of Halo's most disturbing character, and without a doubt one of the universe's most intriguing individuals...

No you're wrong, the saddest character is the guy who guards the grunt mating chambers.
Mista Macho Ewww
That spearhead guy!
um
._.
It's the most cruel and humiliating punnishment for any elite.
Faber is like ONI all compressed into one person.
Agent Kara yep
Agent Kara if you haven’t listened to it yet, I seriously suggest checking out the “hunt the truth” series on UA-cam, it’s official Lore, and highlights how goddamn terrifying ONI can be
It's all Innie lies. The Office of Naval Intelligence has commissioned an edited version of the reports which can be found here: ua-cam.com/video/BKKB94WQr1k/v-deo.html
ONI has yet to experience any sense of remorse though, as it is a faceless intelligence agency.
Plus some sense of humanity
One thing 343 got right was fleshing out the downfall of the forerunners
wow im so cool because i'm the 343rd like
I do agree that it’s cool to get more lore and fleshing out but I think they did it the wrong way. The nerfed how strong they were described in on of the games. Guilty spark notes how Chief is wearing a level 2 combat suit and should have a level 12 during an outbreak which just tells you how much of a gap there is between the two races technology. Instead the promethians are as strong as normal enemies and they should be way tougher considering the sentinels are basically the forunners rumbas and look at how crazy they were in Halo Wars 2
@@gendygoblin8391 Gameplay puposes i would assume
Furfagot.
@@gendygoblin8391 The Promethean constructs are weak for gameplay purposes.
If the Gravemind was into music, he'd go on about how he listened to Rock and Metal over Time.
Would Time by Wintersun be its favourite song/album?
Sopranomaster.
Yeah, pretty much.
Not going lie good pun wasn't cringey it was clever you sir earn my respect.
Acceptile I feel like he's a metallic typa cat. the day that never comes or some shit.
A Masterbuilder eh? Faber was probably pretty good with LEGOs.
his story was in line with the movies.
Master Builder to Master Destroyer and then back to the redemption arc of being the Master Builder again.
You caught that too, huh.
Until he stepped on the lego
Nah man it was MEGA BLOCKS he was good at
The guy who wrote bionicle's story was named Christan Faber
Never imagined the Halo: CE would lead to the creation of such a great storyline.
Adam Weaver the story has been pre planned this whole time
Straight Busta No the game definitely came first
Peyton Mendell fall of reach released in October of 2001. Combat evolved released in November
@@SmileBullet ye, but Halo was in development pre-2001 originally meant to be released on Mac in 2000. The game started development in 1997, and because Bungie has Joseph Staten, it wouldn't be a surprise if he was friends with Eric Nylund and they probably outlined most of the story.
@@peyton9932 no the books definitely came years before the game...
In halo there is the great forerunner and flood war, and in the halo fanbase there is the great audible war, between Luke the notable and HiddenXperia
ikatarn
This all happened because Faber didn't try audible.
^
Hidden Xperia dies in infinity war
WOAH SPOILERS
NUUUUU
Halo 5 is thanos
His last words, “I don’t feel so good”
"I don't feel so notable"
His ACTUAL last words were: “why is the ceiling shaking”
Pootis
He might have thought to fired, but never expected it was gone.
The fact that Faber sobered up aka humbled himself at the end of his life aka full circle character development into even trying stay on omega halo and help the humans as much as he could prior to committing suicide by staying on the ring to fire it directionally at Path Kethona Galaxy when he could’ve just ran away, shows that he truly did regain his humanity as a Forerunner even if it was for a little while.
It goes to show how a little bit of humility can go a long way.
Faber of Will and Might, The Master Builder.
That new logo is downright ICONIC
you could say its LEGENDARY
Yeah, but why would that elite cut his own head off?
For honor mich
Yep
And just like me he redeemed himself at the end of his life.
Darth Vader Except he didn't murder children.
Mario Badia yes but Faber excruciatingly tortured thousands of humans trying to remove their souls and leaving most dead or with something incredibly wrong with them for the rest of their lives. So I think faber committed a worse crime than Vader
Darth Vader
I don’t see him as evil at all. Rather, just someone driven by desperation.
By the way, I believe the Didact was only tortured for like a year or two by the Gravemind, not a decade. Only about 7 years passed from the fall of the Capital to the Halos firing anyway.
Darth Vader Nice 😂😂😂
I'm a simple man. HiddenXperia posts, I watch.
Thanks Arby
I am a complex male. HiddenXperia posts, I question his mind as this video isn’t ICONIC
I'm a simple man. I see Halo: Reach art, I leave a like.
Were it so easy.
@@HiddenXperia you so damn famous the arbiter himself watches your videos
A tragic end to a tragic character. I always seemed to find myself being curious about and intrigued by Fabar more than all of the other Forerunners. More-so than the Iso, Ur Didact and the Librarian...
He reminds me of J. R. Oppenheimer.. "Now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds".
Icarus intriguing but how so?
Htoo Doh He's a Master Builder. The leader of his rate. What did he do to get there, how did he attain that position. Why was he so ruthless in the beginning? What was he going through when he fired the rings? I'd imagine he felt like Oppenheimer when he witnessed the birth of his creation, the Atom bomb, capable of ending humanity. Fabar was practically doing the exact same thing with firing the rings. Both creators of doomsday weapons.
I can't answer your question directly, I'm asking questions beyond the scope of the overall Halo narrative and what is necessary in terms of driving the plot forward. It's something I do when I'm creating characters too. You give them a personality, then you say; how would my character act in such and such way, what has happened to him to be the way he is, why would he do this or avoid that, what drives him? What are his vices, what's his moral compass, his political opinions, philosophy, religion, has the past eschewed in any way from his development as a character or is it the very reason he acts the way he does?
You could say I could ask the same of the other characters, but none of them have created the very namesake of the saga we follow. "Halo".
My imagination is on overdrive lol. Apologies for the incoherent answer. I went full scatter brain for a sec. I could write entire biographies for fictional characters. Even with no bearing with the lore. :P
To my mind, he was panicking. A lot, and desperate at times. Certainly egotistical often. He's a main character in this little work of mine:
www.fanfiction.net/s/11580757/1/HALO-Begging-After-Knowledge (part 1)
It's crazy how huge the Halo universe is in the books and how far it goes back.
Thanks Experia you've shed so much light on the lore of halo. I never realized how much story there was outside of the canon halo games. adds a whole other level. keep on keepin on buddy.
That intro was beautiful!

In the trilogy, his mastery of politics is also very impressive. He's like always one move away from the Didact in political strategies.
I like how he changed from start to the end. Even though cruel he had great character development and is a fine example how power corrupts. He's probably my favorite Forerunner.
And the reason we got Halo in the first place.
Great video man!
I love this and love how Faber came full circle before he died!
Emphasis on 'Full Circle'.
Then the circle broke.
Having read Silentium, I actually felt pretty bad for him. He redeemed himself in the end, and is an iconic and pivotal character in the history of the Halo Universe.
I had problems understanding what forerunner trilogy was about. Videos like these help a lot. Thank you!
Yeah, the books were soooooooo strange.
Of course, rereading them and also playing the games could help a lot in understanding.
YEAH its always a good day when you upload a vid
HiddenXperia
Faber : "Humans are immune againts the flood" *put on make up*
Faber : "Maybe if i do experiment on human with medicant bias i could find the cure" *Put on the the secon layer*
Faber : "So that's a trap, humans are not immune, and medicant bias get hacked, but maybe Shan'Shyuum know the real "cure" " *Put on the wig*
Faber : "Why i can't find the cure for flood anywhere ?" *Clown*
It sounds like you're calling him a foreigner, not a forerunner.
that's right, he is saying foreigner and he has trolled us both...
You can say Faber was,......
Cold As Ice
"The Foreigner Trilogy"
I mean technically that's still correct so there's that.
I'm currently listening to the primordium audiobook of the forerunner trilogy using your audible trial link. So glad that I understood almost everything in the video. Keep up the ICONIC lore videos m8!
Fabrer the MasterBuilder:
can we build it?: "YES WE CAN"
YES WE FUCKING CAN
bob the builder lol
Spoilers, the Forerunners die in Infinity War.
Paco M. Oronce what the Frick man why would you spoil?!!!
Man! The music in this vid was INCREDIBLE, man!
This vid enlightened me on a MEGA TON of Halo lore! You the man!
This is the gravemind I have seen many halo youTubers none as great as HiddenXperia halo cannon and Act Man. Good vid keep up the good work
Swangin_Hams Koeun Halo Cannon is good on some points, but not as reliable as HiddenXperia.
Loving your detailed and thoughtful work on the Halo lore. It's really fascinating and has me excited about stories yet to be told in the franchise.
I love your content bro
I am absolutely in love with all of these lore videos!!
Man, thats deep, Im glad you finally made a video on this, you have mentioned him so many times in your previous videos and I didnt really get him at frist, but thanks for clearing it up :)
You’re one of the reasons I started to read the books! So much lore that isn’t being shown in the game.. and this Builder video gave me goosebumps..!
Love the new intro! :)
The Forerunner Saga was so great and gives a new perspective to the Halo Universe. I highly recommend reading it! Or listening lol
Dude, I watch all your vids man. They're really good and informative.
My favorite time of day is when hidden xperia uploads a vid
Faber's final words, this is cannon and everything, were... "Well, shit. I guess I'll die then."
That's bad ass lmfao
This is my favorite halo story
Love your content Xperia. And that new into makes me happy every time I see it.
love the new intro haven't seen one of your videos for a while
1:04 wow..............just....wow, that's probably how gravemind gets his knowledge, he listens to audio books
Never thought the Halo universe was so deep and interesting until I found this channel a while back. Keep it up my dude
Been on the edge of my seat waiting for the next vid. And away we go!
It’s insane how cinematic this video is I could almost imagine that final scene
Master builder? I S T H I S T H E I C O N I C L E G O M O V I E
I keep hearing "foreigners" instead of "forerunners".
Hey man I just want to say I love the vids, there's channels like yours but you just give the vids a lot of character. Keep up the good work and can't wait to watch new vid!
Still got the best intro ever
If it is a master builder, why isn't he a lego?
*Top ten questions science still can't answer*
Video on ancient humans and forerunner navies and craft.
Question for Xperia: What kind of Halo ship would you command, and what would you call it. Going further, what would your ideal Halo navy be? Any ships, hell, take flood ships if you want.
id take a fleet of ships that belong to the unidentified alien race which landed on installation 04 40'000 years prior to the events of halo
I'd have a ship like one of the original humans ships like we see in the h4 terminals and call it The Wisdom Glory. My ideal navy would have covenant ships and other races ships
Rtas Vadumee
I would expect nothing less from you, Great Shipmaster.
Thank you Schneeflocke Monsoon
Great video man always enjoyed the low of the forerunners still need to get to my books and just got audible so that should help thanks
Awesome video about Faber Xperia! :) I really love that new icon for your channel, its so awesome! :)
Ahh, I see Lukethenotable’s audible iconicness has spread to you
Retro Striker ay
The Forerunner's stories are so dope. Thanks for sharing this!
Master Builder: *Slaps roof of Mantle's Approach* this bad boi can fit so many Particle Cannons that you can't even count
It's been a while since I visited this channel, and DAMN that new intro
Had those books for ages. Loved reading them about 6-7 times. ❤
When he mentioned Audible I thought I was seeing Luke The Notable. XD
You can see me anytime. Just close your eyes.
Luke TheNotable
OMG, THE ORIGINAL NOTABLE.
And yeah, you are everywhere. XD
But when I do that all I see is Travis snorting G Fuel...
*screeching* Luke is here
Luke TheNotable *DABS*
Your sub count is at 131k now!!! Omg ive watched almost every single video since halo canon first shouted you out on his channel! Keep grinding!
Honestly, its been weeks since i have dived into anything halo, and this is just what i needed.
Wow, that’s kinda a sad story. Loved the video though!
Highlight of my day right here👌🏻 you're awesome hiddenXperia
Great video dude!
*Almost final words intensifies*
I love how halo expresses how someone can act under the pressure of war
You have the coolest intro I’ve ever seen ❤️👌👍
So, he's in a way, Mengele and Stalin in one package
Notification bois where u at?
Out here ganggang
Only played like half of halo combat evolved and yet this channel/ the game is just so interesting I love it
That grave mind ad was so smooth im actually gonna give audible a try😂😂 gotta appreaciate that
HiddenXperia, I have a question. A few months ago, you said Cortana was infected by the Logic Plague by the Gravemind. And we do know that the Gravemind was COMPLETELY destroyed by the Banished on the lesser Ark. So, who's controlling Cortana?
The Romuluan Hunter the logic plague is like a normal flood infection. Once the form is destroyed your still infected and mad. Take the didact who after a 100,000 years and his gravemind was destroyed was still mad and infected
Rtas Vadumee thanks. It's nice to have a positive reply.
Still unproven, but it's a very plausible hypothesis. Cortana may not realise she has such infection if so, it being disguised by her apparent rampancy, and her possible obsession with recapturing the Chief...
The Romuluan Hunter no problem
Do human rebel lore next pls
This made me cry, it just shows that some who commit atrocious things towards innocent people see the error of their ways and try to redeem themselves, even if it means at the cost of their lives
I don't know what it is, but whenever we're talking about the forerunners, I always get this super ominous and creepy vibe from them. Idk if its because the music choice for the forerunners, but they always give me a chill down my spine.
Hi Xperia. A few weeks ago you sent out a poll about whether you should do a q&a about yourself. From what I remember it was more in the favour you do a q&a video. I'm just wondering will you do that video?
I will at some point in the near future, it was very much in favor of yes :)
*So iconic*
Great video as always :)
Love the new intro!
I’m not able to play Halo because I can’t afford an Xbox anymore, but these lore videos keep me informed about the amazing lore of Halo.
Ayyy that's awesome! Makes me happy I can keep you entertained + into Halo even when you can't play it :D
I dont need free shit, Im saving up for an Xbox One X soon lmao
Good news! Halo infinite will come to windows 10.
Never really thought of Faber as a bad guy. All he did was for the greater good.
Tomzer It seems many villains have this logic.
Many of the greatest atrocities committed throughout history shared that same noble goal.
Fucking Tau...
Sick new intro!
I love the opening to your videos it’s pretty terrifying
What's the music name from 2:10? Please tell me, I have been searching it for ages
Nexoft Alam Halo 3 soundtrack called Gravemind, it’s at the end of the song pretty much.
Ethan Entrican I never owned a console nor played any Halo games on Xbox. I completed Halo on PC, but never was able to complete Halo 2 because of verification requirement.
Btw, thanks for the answer.
Darude sandstorm
Roll Call Halo 3
Nigga😂😂😂How old are you seven!? Search up halo 3 menu theme anyone over 15 knows this.
In the future, could you list the link/s to your background music?
A lot of Halo 4 music...both released and Unreleased.
Been waiting for this one
Good video though. I'd honestly forgotten more than half of the info in this video since reading the books a few years ago. Good job.
Why wouldn’t the librarian restart forerunner life on their home-world, she saved all other sapient species
Atlas Ellis I think it was said somewhere that their home world is a dead world covered in radiation from a dead start.
Ghibalb was destroyed, yes. Instead, the plan was to restart the Forerunners outside of the galaxy. Halo Fractures implies they intend to spread themselves thin so they eventually die out peacefully, but the mystery of Bastion (in Halo 5 Intel) may put the lie to that.
Supposedly the forerunners thought they deserved to be forgotten and not resurrected because of their past. Supposedly something like that.
The librarian said that the forerunners deserved extinction on account of hoarding the mantle of responsibility
Does anybody know the track that plays from 10:35? It's such a haunting piece of music but I can't find it anywhere.
Its from black ops 3 der eisendrache rocket launch theme
Uncle Tom Dude, thank you so much for the title. Much appreciated 👌
by any chance, do you know the album name @ 6.15
I could/do listen to your voice for hours in end
Woah. I haven't seen your channel in a while. Nice intro!
The Forerunner Trilogy is truly a masterpiece
I would really like to see the logic plague in action... or evidence of character's descent into madness... perhaps a scene of Cortana or Bias...
Something like how we saw Keyes slowly merge with the proto-gravemind.
Another great video
The intro is awesome!
I found a perfect weapon against the Flood. The Daleks.
Logic plague would not be a danger because Daleks don't use AI. Daleks would be extremely hard to infect because every Dalek has a forcefield. Even if Dalek would be infected, that wouldn't matter because they are small so that would make little biomass, Dalek technology is very complicated so Flood wouldn't take control of it, also Daleks without their "suits" are useless.
Dalels also have weapons of mass destruction and can one shot kill everything.
Kaiser Morty Daleks beats everything.
What is a “Dalek”?
"This is not war, this is pest control"
Dalek Sec, on the subject of 4 Daleks easily defeating five million Cybermen.
*Flood Appears* EXTERMINATE
Just use the toilet plunger attachment in CQC.
