Re: Question for Eric
Posted By: Eric Trautmann <mercuryeric@hotmail.com>Date: 10/22/01 7:17 p.m.

In Response To: Question for Eric (Pfhor)

: Hey Eric,

: Could you answer this question? Who is the narrator of this Halo book?

Uh, answering that is a spoiler. There are, IIRC, four separate POV characters. One of them is Cortana.

Oh
: yes, what is this story bible you speak of?

The story bible was written by yours truly (with some help from Eric Nylund, Doug Zartman, and Brannon Boren, all Microsoft employees). It is designed as a "reference guide" for authors, comic book writers, etc., so that they can build new stories set in the "Halo" universe without contradicting the game or each other. It also clearly identifies areas that are "hands off" -- the province of Bungie for future game development.

>Will it be released for Halo?

The Halo story bible is confidential and isn't intended for distribution to the general public. Sorry. (It would sort of be like telling how the magician does his tricks or reading the last page of a mystery novel first.)
