Enemies Of The Tenno: Infested Submissions

[WetFlamez]

Name Suggestion: Liquidor

Behaviour:Aggressive, stealthy, light-armoured infested mob. "Camouflage" ability to hide in water and to hook the enemies towards itself. AOE-DPS aura just like the toxic ancients; damages shield, then health.

Attacks: While camouflaging in water, it hooks nearby enemies towards itself. Enemies are slowed and take DPS damage on shields, then health, while near the Liquidor.

Environmental Restrictions: Found in water.

[Elestor]

Name Suggestion: PESTILENCE

 

Behaviour:

Codenamed ‘PESTILENCE’, mimics the apparance of a tenno or an existing teammate to get near and possess YOU. 

It mimics the apparance in 2 situations :

- As an excalibur joining from the start of the game (if there are empty slots) waiting to strike when you least expect it .

- As a tenno that is the furthest back from the group (making it possible for him to be spoted)

Its original apparance is similar to infested slime covering the tile sets, Using it to spawn out, back in and a means of travel.

Prefering to jump on you form different angles out of the walls, rarely the ground. 

It will avoid a direct fight often jumping back in the slime to save itself or change positions from which to jump on you. (Using slime similar to portals)

 

Attacks: harvested from past tenno

1. Mimic (to get near, so it can attach itself to you)

2 .Bolts (Viral) that also drain energy

3 .Molt

4 .Infest (Take control over)

 

IF it manages to overwhelm an unsuspecting tenno 

IT will infest the player, adding some infested slime and tentacles to his apparance (can be general similar to the syandana) The screen will turn green and you will be helpless and without control as you kill and hunt other tenno . 

If you manage the defeat this vile creature : 

Before it infests you it will crawl back to the slime it came from leaving behind dead peaces.

(or)After the infested tenno is downed a weakend pestilance will be revealed.

 

Environment restrictions: Infested slime on maps, until it manages to TAKE OVER someone. Horizontal and vertical slime.

 

Notes :  Idea is to infest rather than fight. (Thought as a stalker equivalent for infested)

Name Suggestion: Spore Host 

 

Behaviour: Codename "spore host" is mostly a static unit on a wall , occasionally moving and attacking tenno that pass .

It initially crawls up on walls fixing itself in a spot from which it shoots Tenno. Due to its small size ,while shooting it , if you miss, it  will stand up and move a small distance in any direction and fix itself again to the wall all the while continuing to attack.

 

Attacks: It shoots out large spore like beings that stick to tenno dealing viral damage and draining life directly passing shields. 50% of life stolen by spores will recover when effect ends. 

 

Environment restrictions: flat surface and a small area for it to move .

[(PSN)Amac_308]

Name Suggestion: Glaucus

Behaviour:  Quickly slithers but moves through the air about head high. Moves much like a centipede.

Attacks: Shoots poisonous darts out of its mouth from a distance. It also can strike with its many tentacles. It's most devastating attack comes from its tail of which it can strike a tenno and instantly drain all shields and then uses that energy as a weapon that it can shoot as an electrical strike out of its mouth at another tenno or the tenno that it just drained, it can damage the other tenno using the tenno's power against them.Much like the real creature does it sucks poison out of different jellyfish to create one of the if not the most powerful poisons on earth.

Environment restrictions:  It does not fly higher than 10ft or so.

[RedSkittlez]

Name Suggestion: Defiler

 

Behavior:  The Defiler is a large, heavy, and agile infested unit that rapidly harries Tenno, or leads them into traps. Generally, the Defiler will actively play at being wounded to lure the Tenno into a false sense of security before springing its deadliest traps and only attack with its full power when it has the absolute advantage. Watch yourself Tenno, the Defiler gives a mean hug.

 

Attacks: The Defiler will first approach a Tenno cell, probing their capabilities cautiously while trying to minimize its exposure, and appear as something different, such as a Charger under the shadows. After taking 35% damage to its health, the Defiler opens fully with a deafening screech that can stagger unprepared Tenno, at which point it attacks with rapid claw swipes and bites. Occasionally, the Defiler will attempt to grapple, wrapping its tongue around the Tenno and dragging it into its claw range, where it will attack with rapid flurries of its claws.

 

After being reduced to one quarter of its health, the defiler will attempt to retreat slowly, now attempting to lure targets into larger packs of enemies, while calling out for any nearby Infested to come to its aid. At this point, the Defiler will also remove badly damaged parts from its body and attempt to throw them at the Tenno, in order to cause damage and splatter the Tenno with its blood. Tenno splattered with the Defiler’s blood are more likely to draw aggro from nearby Infested Units.

 

Environment Restrictions:  Dark, narrow tunnels with some wide open spaces; areas that would be best for hit-and-run ambushes.

[Gerrador]

Something has been bothering for quite some time now.

We've seen infested life grow on just about everything from the ground to orokin machinery, turning the grineer and corpus into biological playthings.

So I introduce... Infected MOA!

It doesn't seem too far fetched to me that the same infection that works on orokin systems could infect and control a drone like a MOA or an Osprey, especially with electric bio-reactions occuring in crawlers and the synapse already implemented.

 

Infected MOA

 

Behavior- Same as any ordinary MOA, if infected with an electric variety of the virus it would behave more like a fusion MOA or corrupted MOA, getting in range and using the lightning like it's usual laser attack.

 

Environment- Any corpus venue, if corrupted, Derelict only.

 

Other ideas would be for Osprey and/or Roller infected to add variety without needing to reinvent too much content.

[Santoridium]

Name: Tunneler

Behaviour: Lightly armored, fast moving unit that digs through the hardest of materials to incapacitate a prey from below.

Attacks: The Tunneler shuffles around underground, reaching for the Tenno's legs and preventing them to move, leaving them vulnerable to other units attacks. (DoT to shields)

Environment restrictions: Cannot move inside of walls.

[theflyingbutress]

NAME: T LEECH (Technocyte Leech)

BEHAVIOUR:  Forming inside egg sacs in infested areas, these creatures tend to either fall on or crawl unto unsuspecting hosts when they hatch. They are usually stationary, waiting for a prey. They may look sluggish; but beware, Tenno, for when these creatures set sight on a host, they will use up all their energy to attach themselves. In doing so gives a huge amount of strain on their bodies. Furthermore, as aggressive as they are, their life span is very short. When they die, the host will become confused, and may attack both enemies and allies. In addition, their skin acts like a chameleon’s; adapting to the color it attaches to. Making this enemy very dangerous when neglected. Kill it before it dies.

ATTACKS: Attaches itself to a host; it deals minimal damage over time, while it is attached and still alive. It dies after a certain amount of time, leaving the host in a confused state. Its movement speed is more or less like that of a Grineer Latcher.

ENVIRONMENT RESTRICTIONS: Affected by gravity. Unable to stick or crawl on walls, as it heavily strains their bodies. They are mainly stationary, waiting for a prey to attach themselves on.

[potymon]

Name Suggestion: Unintentionally Turtle

Behaviour:  Agile creature with a Shield Lancer shield mutated on to it's back, it charges at it's enemy with no fear of being damaged. It is not advised to try and melee this creature because of the toxic trail it leaves as it moves.

Attacks: A charge attack as fast an oxium osprey, at a force that is able to knock a tenno down. Once the victim is lying down, it retreats to a distance in which it can initiate another attack.

Environment restrictions:  Not advised in tight areas in which they could fall.

[Riddle78]

Snare Crawler

 

Behavior: Moves identically to other Crawler types,but attempts to stay in the middle of an existing crowds of Infested. When lacking cover,it will attempt to grab the nearest player,prioritizing lowest maximum HP.

Attacks: Tentacle: The Snare Crawler launches a tentacle (25 meter range) which,on impact,staggers the victim,whereupon it will reel itself in. Once attached,it will drain shields,then health,by way of beating on the Warframe like a cheap drum,while at the same time slowing them down. Can be removed by victim's melee strikes,based on weapon damage. Allies can fire on it. Claws: The Snare Crawler savagely lashes out with its claws,dealing moderate damage per swipe.

Environmental Restriction: None,though more populous on Corpus tilesets,as it was once a Corpus Crewman.

[JXingL]

Name Suggestion:

Ophiocordyceps

 

Behaviour:

Parasitizes other Infested. Usually lurking in the host's body. 

When the host died, Ophiocordyceps will be born and control the host's corpse to attack.

Art or Reference Images:

 

Inspired by the cryopod found during defense missions and derelicts, this infested creature preys on inattentive tenno and will perform hit and run tactics if ignored. While not a threat by itself, it will pose a great threat if paired with its more prevalent and powerful brethren. This enemy is a direct result of the infestation successfully overtaking a Tenno cryopod and its sleeping inhabitant - hence the name.

Behavior: only a handful can be found in each mission and it crawls on walls or ceilings. When threatened it shines bright red and produces a unique screech that warns other players of incoming danger. it has incredible agility and can be very fierce in combat, it utilizes it's powerful legs to move around the tenno while spitting hazardous substances using its tail and impaling the tenno using its sword-like front legs if it catches it off-guard for even a second. The armor around its body can only be damaged by corrosive, blast, and puncture weapons but the head, grineer arm, and open tail flap are susceptible to any type of damage.

 

When it gets heavily damage it will attempt to flee from the players to avoid getting killed.

 

NOTE: it can see invisible warframes since it uses heat and movement to detect preys

 

 

Attacks: 

 

Impale: Uses its front sword-like legs to shred warframes. Deals Poison DOT and slash proc

 

Acid Spit: using its tail it spits a corrosive liquid AOE that contaminates the area for a while making it a corrosive hazard while dealing DOT to whom ever is standing on it

 

Goo: it can regurgitate a slimy projectile that slows movement by 75% of anything it hits within an AOE including enemies.

 

Grapple: Using its tongue it can grapple any tenno trying to escape and pull it towards it before it shreds it using its front legs, though you can shoot it off before it pulls you any closer.

 

Screech: To warn other players of its presence.

 

Red Glow: for the Fear Factor.

 

 

Environment restrictions:  

 

It only exists in the new infested tile set due to its matured percepts and developed body

[Icymountain]

Name: Ancient Mimus

 

Behavior: Slow, tries to avoid direct confrontations, prefers to sneak up when player is dealing with a mob of chargers and other 'pawn' infested. Pretty rare. 

 

Attacks: Only one, the extending grapple arm. The player who gets grappled is stunned and gets his face latched on to while the infested 'copies' his warframe, which takes about 5 seconds or so. While copying the warframe, the grappling arm of the ancient splits to reveal a network of veins, which is weak to slash damage and can be severed to kill the ancient. If the copying is successful, the ancient transforms into an infested version of the copied warframe, which is an exact copy of the original warframe (all stats and abilities copied) except shields are replaced by sinew and health is replaced by infested flesh. 

 

Environmental restrictions: None. 

 

Description: Exactly like an ancient, except its arm splits into a network of veins when grappling a warframe. Perhaps yellow coloured.

[Kimmokun]

Name Suggestion: Ancient Thrasher

Behaviour:  (Alone) The Ancient Thrasher waits in the dark until an unsuspecting prey is within range.

                   (In a group with other infested) Stays behind the front line and lashes its tendrils out to enemies. Approaches enemies slowly (like the other ancients) 

Attacks: Uses its long tendril arms to attack. The Thrasher lunges from behind and unleashes a powerful swipe with its two arms, knocking multiple enemies/tenno down within a small aoe and staggering others that are further away.   

Environment restrictions:  Very sensitive to light so it prefers dark places such as indoors or at night.

Name: Primeval Shadow

 

Behavior. First, the lights turn off and two shadows crosses the room, across corners and walls. This is only shadows, and judging by its position, they can determine which cover will it come from. But, to trick the players up, there will be two shadows per Primeval Shadow. Then, suddenly, a figure runs from behind cover at a player. If not killed before reaching player, it will hit the player with a stealth multiplier and an assassination animation. Afterwards, it disappears and will appear again the next time another Primeval Shadow appear, it will appear with it (can stack to a certain limit). Adds creepiness.

 

Attacks: Stealth attack, doing a high amount of puncture and slash damage. All infested will also have a small damage increase during lights off time except the Primevals.

 

Environmental restrictions: Small rooms with lots of cover makes this enemy extremely deadly, as it can appear behind any cover.

 

Appearance: No pics, might give one if finished before due date

Drops from a ceiling/wall on an  unsuspecting tenno, knocking them down and dealing massive viral damage.

 

Spits noxious balls at fleeing tenno, which release a neuro-toxic gas, dealing gas damage and slowing tenno's movement speed.

[JDYKID]

Grineer type-


Dog like enemy-
 warped in color and in shape. A broken looking back, six legs, two heads, and blinding speed are the first things the tenno will notice upon seeing the wretched beast. It can corrode through tenno armor with the acid that leaks from its teeth, and its claws are that 100x sharper then and skana.


behavior - it is a ground type enemy that rushes at any tenno it sees. they roam around maps tracking the scent of the tenno making them incredibly dangerous in stealth missions, however they can not wall run or jump as high as other enemies making evading them easy...if it were not for there speed that is...
