The Flood is a fictional parasitic alien lifeform and one of the primary antagonists in the Halo multimedia franchise. First introduced in the 2001 video game Halo: Combat Evolved, it returns in later entries in the series such as Halo 2, Halo 3, and Halo Wars. The Flood is driven by a desire to infect any sentient life of sufficient size; Flood-infected creatures, also called Flood, in turn can infect other hosts. The parasite is depicted as such a threat that the ancient Forerunners constructed artificial ringworld superweapons known as Halos to contain it and, as a last resort, to kill all sentient life in the galaxy in an effort to stop the Flood's spread by starving it.

  • Los Flood (Inferi redivivus por los Forerunner y El Parásito por el Covenant) son personajes de ficción de la saga de videojuegos de Halo. Aparecen por primera vez en Halo: Combat Evolved, como un enemigo secundario luego del Covenant, también aparecen en Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo Wars y "Halo Wars 2". Los Flood son parásitos que pueden infectar a cualquier forma de vida inteligente que encuentren (excepto a los Cazadores porque no tienen sistema nervioso central y por su increíble fuerza para defenderse en contra de ellos),​ y representaron tal amenaza para la avanzada raza Forerunner 100 000 años atrás, que éstos se sacrificaron al activar los halos, y con ello toda forma de vida consciente de la galaxia desapareció para matar de hambre al parásito.

  • Le Parasite ou Flood, en anglais, (Inferi redivivus en langage Forerunner), est une espèce parasite fictive de l'univers Halo. Elle apparaît dans tous les jeux liés à l'univers Halo (hormis Halo Reach, Halo ODST, Halo 4 et Halo 5) et est au moins citée dans la majeure partie des romans liés. Le Parasite constitue également une des cinq factions de cet univers, avec l'UNSC, l'Alliance Covenante, la civilisation Forerunner et les , dont l'affrontement perpétuel est au centre de l'intrigue.Le Parasite est directement inspiré des crabes de tête de Half Life.

  • フラッド（Flood）は架空の寄生型エイリアンであり、マルチメディアフランチャイズ『Halo』における主要な敵の1つである。2001年のゲーム『Halo: Combat Evolved』で初登場し、『Halo 2』『Halo 3』および『Halo Wars』などのシリーズ作品にも登場している。フラッドは十分な大きさの知的生命体に感染したいという欲求に駆られており、フラッドに感染した生物（同じくフラッドと呼ばれる）も他の宿主を感染させることができる。この寄生体は、古代種族のフォアランナーがフラッド封じ込めの最終手段として、フラッドを飢えさせることで拡散を阻止しようと銀河の全知的生命体を抹殺する人工のリングワールド超兵器「Halo」を構築したことから脅威的な存在として描かれている。 『Combat Evolved』でプレイヤーがフラッドを発見したことはストーリーの大きな捻りであり、レビューでも肯定的に評価されたサプライズの一つである。しかし、『Halo 2』と『Halo 3』でのフラッドの再登場ついては、あまり高い評価を得ていない。フラッドに対する反応は様々であり、一部の批評家はフラッドは独創性が無いまたは陳腐（な存在）と評しているが、他の批評家はコンピュータゲームの最も偉大な悪役の一つに挙げている。 (ja)
  • O Flood é uma espécie fictícia de parasitas alienígenas da série de videojogos Halo, criada pela Bungie. Eles são introduzidos no primeiro jogo da série, Halo: Combat Evolved como um inimigo secundário a ser enfrentado, ao lado dos Covenant; eles retornam nas sequências do jogo, Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo Wars, e como um modo de jogo em Halo 4. O Flood se alimenta de qualquer forma de vida consciente com um mínimo de habilidade cognitiva, fazendo-os uma praga de difícil erradicação. O parasita só foi freado devido à ação dos Forerunner, que não viram opção além de matar todas as formas de vida sencientes (incluindo eles mesmos), visando fazer a praga passar fome até sua erradicação.
