The Promethean Knights are villains from the Halo Universe.
They are advanced Forerunner AI that serve and protect the Didact.
What's worse is that the Promethean Knights were, in fact, humans that have fallen victim to the Composer, a device the Didact used to incinerate humans and convert them into raw material to create the Promethean Knights.
