Lurker - a Xenomorph that mainly relies on assassinations to hunt prey. Can command drones since it's place is higher in the hive hierarchy Drone/warrior - the run of the mill Xeno Strain. Although they're cautious hunters when alone, once the hive grows they rely on numbers to hunt.
Runner - faster, smaller Xenomorphs. That is usually born from a small four-legged animal
Tarkatan - a unique strain of Xenomorph that I found on your game. It's head is spherical with long teeth on it's mouth the most defining feature however, is the two retractable blades on it's arms. |
I can pick whatever I want? Wasn't I born from a human host? This is beyond what I expected when you said pick whatever evolution I want. How can you even do this? Isn't DNA reflex permanent?
[I do not know what you expected but, this is what I've planned from the very beginning. And the answer for the second question is simply because the system does not care.]
I kinda expected that I was gonna pick whatever kind of mutation I wanted on my body once I can become an adult. You know, the drone. A special drone sounds nice to me actually.
[That could be arranged. Your Idea may be good once you decide that you wanna remain a Praetorian and not become a Queen in the near future. A variant like that Tarkatan from your sounds good.]
Right? The fact that I can still evolve is cool and all but doesn't the Praetorian require royal jelly? And that's ignoring the fact that a hive needs atleast a population of 300 in order to make them.
[Did you just jump to conclusions on the requirements for the next evolution?]
And what if I did? Judging by the things that you have thrown at me so far. Can't I safely assume that there will be requirements? And besides, it's not like the next stages are something hidden. The lurker would most likely turn into a raven. The drone is a obviously a Praetorian. The runner? A crusher. And the Tarkatan one doesn't need any explanation.
[Raven? Excluding the Tarkatan. I was originally planning on making them all evolve into Praetorians. But I guess a little diversity wouldn't hurt.]
A raven Is a Praetorian sized drone with an exposed skull. Wouldn't that mean the Tarkatan was the best option? Speaking of which, I choose drone.
[Good choice.]
The growing isn't that much of a hassle huh? I just grow in size and eventually grow out of my skin. My new one possess small protrusions which also grows along with me.
All of that, while staying perfectly still.
[Did you really just explained something that I could see?]
Clank
Yep! I wanna try my new body on something. Humans if possible. Maybe that dude from earlier has friends who knows? Setting up a hive here also seems to be a good idea. All I need to do is find sustenance for the egg yolk of the ovomorph. Which do you prefer a hyfetile or a Queen egg?
[You choose.]
Hyfertile! We go with that one. A voice came from under me as I finished saying that. Well, looks like we found the poor bastards that's gonna be used for the egg morphing.
Thx for the chap.
You know for me Tarkatan and Lurker are the only real choices here but Drone can do good thing too.
Plz don't make a MC who was human just go nut and being in mode 'killing all human is not really a prob for me'. Killing bastard in the worst way is ok with me but killing good guys/girls is another story.
It's the effect of his title. I think? Either way it needs to be done in order for the hive thrive.
@Veliasal I understand that but his title make him just lose his feeling right ? Not a bloodthirsty monster ? Like he can use so many monsters (probably with all the 'this is the apocalypse' thingy) who are many time stronger than human and have certainly more potential too right ?
Or he just want make humanoid xeno for the fun and need of it.
Sorry if I bug you with the questions, I'm just curious.
@Stonelight you mean the egg morhping? Oh that's what xenos do to make eggs when there's no queen. You can see this in the directors cut of the very first alien movie.
He isn't actually turning them into human-xeno hybrids but rather. He will cocoon them. They will get digested and serve some sort of supplement for both the growing ovomorph and facehugger.
@Veliasal Okay, but the question is the same, rather using humans and getting the attention of the worst enemy he can have in this world right now, can't he just use other creatures/monsters ?
@Stonelight excluding the zombies, humans are currently the only ones available.
