The Hive - SHIP
Briefing
Essentially a bigger Spiral Neolith, this organism does not seem to have advanced any further when it comes to its energy beams (essentially has Neolith-based energy weapons); but it is finally developing rudimentary plasma waves. Of all the monolith varieties, this one has the most numerous offensive appendages, albeit weaker ones than other monoliths. It needs to come relatively close to its target to become effective, otherwise it will not be able to make many of its weapons hit with any real accuracy. It does become far more deadly however, when it becomes 'enraged', which is an actual thing that has been observed by Genari forces when entangled with creatures like these in combat. Regeneration Rate: 8
