DaMasque Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 I'm sure one day we will abduct the guy and feed him to Helminth, I mean there's a bed in it's chamber... I assume that's the mouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kerberos-3 Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Yes, I too am sure that he will be wanting some fresh biomass to work with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExcaliburUmbra Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 I thought Arlo was just some puppet used by the infested to bypass the quarantine: easily replaced and not important as an individual. But along came the whole “Arlo’s Flame” business from the Zealoid fight and now I don’t know what to think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloudyvisage Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Arlo may be similar to the Jordas Golem or even Phorid, he is an infested being that found a problem and evolved to deal with it. There was an effective barricade in place and the infestation was mostly contained barring small outbreaks here and there that never got big enough to overcome and adapt to whatever came to wipe them out. Arlo is either the infestation using a human puppet to get along or it is just the face of a greater creature. I would like it if they really expanded on the infestation because it is supposed to be an Orokin super weapon after all, it should be on the same level as the Sentients as far as existential threat goes. On the other hand I do quite like the idea of them still trying to get up to that critical mass of inter-connectivity that would make it more like the extreme bio weapon we know it could be.

At the very least, It now gives a reasonable explanation for why we find Mutualist units and non-Ancient units on Derelicts, which is a shame really, when you think about it. They missed on a great opportunity, going this route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
