Do Warframes have mouths?

[(XBOX)Architect Prime]

We know that Umbra has an eye that he can reveal. Perhaps the frames have other features like mouths and whatnot that they never reveal. Thoughts?

It's possible but I wouldn't hold my breath

The vitruvian does show the infested person stage of making a Warframe and they have a freaky mouth in that picture. That was an Excalibur though so maybe not every frame

It would be a fiiiine addition to give the warframe helmets knarly mouths. Make 'em open up in their animations.

Ah the old debate for Sevagoth, it's that his mouth or his visor/eye. Same for Voruna too

Warframes are Dax, and Dax at least had mouths.  It's possible that not all Warframes have mouths, but there are definitely some that possess mouths.  Rhino, for example, is described as having a mouth in his Codex entry:

"The beast squats down, shovelling a heap of gore into its mouth."

Fake news. We all know he can't squat with that massive cod piece.

Let me show you a warframe called Grendel...

The infected don't appear to have mouths, and I assume our operators project their voices through the frames.

If we go from Umbra they do appear to have eyes though, but those are needed.  Mouths aren't.

They have helmets for heads, so it depends whether their helmet has a mouth design, but in terms of actual functioning mouths, no. I think that's the most straightforward answer. Grendel just has a maw weapon in his middle.

Probably in a vestigial sense.

The vital nourishment they need for sustenance is probably injected through the various cybernetics like an IV.

in terms of visuals, some frames do, but the mouths are designed to be more animalistic/demonic so as to intimidate their opponents; great care was taken with frames like Voruna to make them seem as wild beasts (which technically they would be without an operator, as we learned in Rhino Prime's Codex and The Sacrifice) in order to scare the enemy.

in terms of function, Grendel is the only one that has a functioning mouth, and even then, he doesn't "chew", he simply pulls enemies into his maw, then a powerful acid and/or void energy inside him slowly decays them until they die.

also, compared to a lto of frames, Excalibur's helm retains a more humanoid shape that can actually house a human head: if we look at frames like Atlas for example, there's no way you can fit a head in there, which begs the question, what would it look like inside?

they dont eat? there isnt even toilet on the ship...

its kinda very strange non realistic game. there is to many questions without answer

[Loza03]

For at least one unpublished, not even full quarter written fanfic I described a Warframe with its faceplate blown off as having a ring of mislaligned teeth surrounding the faintest hollow of filled-in flesh.

As any alcoholic could tell you, anything's a toilet if you're drunk enough.

Pretty sure warframes have mouths, but they have faceguards over them to imply that they're intended by Ballas to be quiet, and thus obedient.

Go watch the DarkSector beta vid from around 12 years ago....then watch Dark Sector videos from the Xbox360/PS3 days to see what the frames are "supposed" to do to reveal their mouths

.....yeah yeah...blah blah...Dark Sector ain't canon comments....

You assume too much. Living organism on Earth produce waste. The 'waste' has to go out the body somehow. Warframe are more efficient organism. They use 100% of their material intake. No waste products, no need for toilets.

Technocyte can give machines biological metabolisms, so I'm assuming that the nano bots are very good at what they do.

There's some organism on Earth that secrete their waste products as building materials. Continueously growing nails, claws, appendages, might be common.
