The Demiurge

"The Demiurge Will Rule"

- Affirmation of the Demiurge

The Demiurge is a shadowy cabal of powerful and influential people in ex-Covenant space, using their links, spy network and financial powers to see their dream come true. Their dream is of uniting the former Covenant races into a single power bloc, and then expanding their influence through conquest and subjugation. What has made the Demiurge a threat to galactic peace is the strength of their intelligence network, expanding far and wide, amongst the Sangheili, Jiralhanae, Kig-Yar and even Humanity. Both the Republic and the UNSC consider the Demiurge a threat on a par with the Covenant Remnant, but lack the resources or the intelligence to effectively attack them, their agents or their strong holds. This has allowed them to steadily expand their power base, encroaching on both Republic and UEG territory.
