Logic plague

The logic plague is the Forerunner term for the techniques used by the Flood to attack and subvert intelligences through non-biological means. Described as the information equivalent of the parasite, the logic plague is not a rigid or singular mechanism; much like the Flood's biological aspect, it can take many forms and adapt to different circumstances. The state induced by the logic plague in an artificial intelligence is often equated with the condition of rampancy, albeit one of a specific focus—the propagation of the Flood's goals.
