Gloom-Strain Scavanger

Scavanger (Gloom-Strain)

As we are all painfully aware by now, the so called "Gloom" is beginning to reach its climax, with reports now of Terminids being directly affected by it. The changes upon the latter are so extensive that i have since designated them under an entirely new Substrain of Terminid, with the humble Scavanger being amongst our most prominent examples. The Scavenger undergoes systematic physiological changes following infection, such as the hardening of its carapace, the growth of various external fungal growths and most importantly, (to both them and us) the complete mutation of its intestinal gut, now seemingly being repurposed to mass-produce spores, and doing so at great pressure. As a result, the Ministry of Science and I myself strongly recommend you do not attempt to puncture them whilst within close proximity of these aptly named "Blisters".

• As stated above, I personally empathise you refrain from attempting to puncture or kick the Gloom-Strain Scavenger, as tempting as it may be. Conversely, much like the Bile Spitters, one can attempt to use its explosive nature against it and attempt to shoot it whilst within proximity of its brethren

• By the Ministry of Humanity and myself, we both highly recommend that you undergo complete disinfection regarding both your body, armour and equipment upon contact with infected spores, Spores are known to both clog up ventilation ports and eat into fabric. I do not need to remind you the monetary consequences involved upon failure to do so...
