Sploder

A side effect of an Afflicted being infected with the T-Phobos Virus was that the creature would often have large tumours growing in and around the it’s head. Damaging these tumours could generate two special variants of an Afflicted. 

The more humanoid variant would develop after causing significant damage to these tumours caused the virus to rapidly mutate the host body, swelling it to obese proportions as more tumours covered the outer flesh and the stomach filled with corrosive acid. These were known as ‘Sploders and once the creature detected a proximity alert, it would self-terminate and burst completely, spraying bile in all directions across a wide radius. This mutation is strangely similar to the ‘Ooze Chunk’ subjects infected with the t-Abyss Virus.

 Variant

The second was an entirely independent organism known as a ‘Cyst.’ These were small congealed lumps of tissue infected with the virus. They would lie dormant on the floor and react to nearby movement. Once a target wanders too close they would immediately swell up and burst, spreading out a wave of acidic bile that could seriously burn anyone caught in the blast.
