Alright; I know Invasion is Secondary Continuity-- So we don't know if it's still canon or not. But My question is; What are these creatures within the game...? In Bygone Marsh there is an REF Frigate that crushed upside down and you have to destroy a barricade of debris. Once you get in the ship's engine room you fine these little creatures sucking out it's power and you have to kill them. Later in Hive Catacombs there is a pit of discarded mecha and technology and it's infested with them and they start hurting you by draining your shield and health rather quickly. Once you escape you are in a laboratory full of old Alpha Fighters being dismantled and it's also infested with the little creatures, It all seems almost abandoned. Later in the game you play as Tasha and return to Graystone with Xed; You fall into the open hole to find it has some soldiers that made refuge from what lurked deeper-- turns out it's an abandoned Genesis Pit. Once you go further out you encounter a soldier in red armor being swarmed as he tries to make it back to the rest. The safe area explodes and he dies. You go deeper into the cave and start getting attacked out of nowhere and it's scary-- then the creature uncloaks and reveals it's true self, This burgundy/maroon like creature that's in relative size to a human. It makes disgusting noises and seems to have hair; Both the Scorpion creature and this monster have eyes almost Identical to the eyes of the Invid Mecha even though they seem biological in every aspect. The Genesis Pit always gave me nightmares and I always wondered what these creatures are as nothing seems to be explained and I don't think anyone mentioned them. It would be so greatly appreciated if someone knew or had any idea of the topic.
