Salubrion, the Virulent Synthesist (Warframe Concept)

[PhotoshopWorm]

In the laboratories of the Corpus, where experiments involving the Infestation sought to harness its power, Dr. Octavius Serrol, was assigned to unlock the secrets of the virus. As he immersed himself in his research, he discovered a unique strain of the virus, Helminth, that piqued his curiosity. A tragic accident during one of his experiments exposed Dr. Serrol to the Helminth virus. Desperate to save himself and those around him, he administered an untested cure derived from his research. The Helminth's mutating influence, however, was unstoppable. Rather than eradicating the virus, the cure merged with the Helminth's essence, mutating Dr. Serrol into a symbiotic being with the very pathogen he sought to control. Embracing his new body, Dr. Serrol emerged as Salubrion, a Warframe caught between the realms of affliction and symbiosis. Now bound to the Helminth, Salubrion escaped the Corpus, exploring the Origin System with hopes to understand and control the mutagenic forces within him. As Salubrion encountered other Warframes and allied factions, he became a reluctant ally, offering his abilities to combat the encroaching Infestation. The Corpus, unaware of his transformation, deemed him a rogue experiment and sought to capture him, fearing the uncontrollable power he embodied.

 

*Mission 1*

The Lotus uncovers files for Corpus experiments involving the Helminth virus on the outer reaches of Deimos. As the player explores Corpus ships, they learn about Dr. Serrol's involvement and the unique Helminth strain he discovered.

 

*Mission 2*

The trail leads the player to the surface of Deimos, where they face waves of Infested enemies as they delve deeper into Salubrion's experiments. Hints about his transformation become apparent, and the Lotus urges the player to discover the true extent of Salubrion's connection with the Helminth.

 

*Mission 3*

The final stage takes the player deep inside an old Isolation Vault on Deimos, revealing Salubrion's final resting place. The area is visibly altered by his experimentations. Players fight Infested enemies and discover the blueprints of Salubrion, unlocking the potential to harness his abilities.
