What if xenomorphs are actually docile and friendly, or even sentient, when birthed from the right (intended) host? Interesting thought! Remember the Prometheus script and how it spoke of cleansing sin before entering the headroom? Perhaps they knew the result would be an aggressive creature with the wrong host...Interesting potential connection - or atleast I would find it interesting!

That’s food for thought…. A xenomorph that’s genetically engineered to be docile we know it’s possible to perfect them and make them hyper aggressive so it’s not too far off to be posible to make them docile…. The downside is you have a perfect killing machine that doesn’t kill? Wayland-Yutani doesn’t make profits out of pets

So if Monica was injected with the black goo, that'd make her an anathema, so essentially what we're seeing here is an anathema xenomorph. It isn't totally clear if the black goo actually changes the xenos to any noticeable degree so far, but given anathema's stay the same size until they break down, the size difference has to be a mutation on the facehugger's side, and maybe the coloration is a host thing? I'm not exactly sure what the difference between 3 and 7 is, I haven't read the novel so I'm not sure if 7's host was an anathema too, but according to Alien Theory all the eggs were also injected with a serum derived from Leon-895 that allowed it to camoflague. So if that's responsible for the odd coloration, and the pathogen is responsible for being larger, then the host being an anathema doesn't really seam to change anything about the end result? Just kinda thinking out loud here.

No its good, loved reading your comment. It is essentially an Anathema Xenomorph which is very interesting, but wether the Anathema negative traits are passed onto the creature is uncertain and not likely however we also didn't spend much time with her you never know I guess.
@princessmaly
@princessmaly 3 жыл бұрын
@@ProjectACHERON Well I doubt an anathema xeno would go terminal... ...unless it did. I remember a theory back before the rpg made it explicit that ingestion and "topical" applications had different effects that the sacrificial goo from Prometheus was a separate thing, which broke down the host and carried its genes forward, so when used on an engineer, it mutates whatever it infects into engineer-like creatures. In this way it clicks into place when you realize the xeno mural on LV-223 was a sacrifice who's genetics were carried into the black goo, hence it turning things into aliens. There's still room I think between anathemas breaking down and what the resulting... whatever... does to the next host down the line. RPG says it makes more... but that's in the context of a bombing. With the concept art showing engineers exploding into worms and the exact generation of neomorphs still unknown, and the rpg specifically mentioning multiple TYPES of goo... idunno, something? Prolly nothing though. God I wish the black goo was thought out and explained better, 9 years after Prometheus and it's still causing headaches.

I read Infiltrator when it first released and found it to be pretty generic, not really anything new from the other Aliens stories out. It was still entertaining and a nice lead-in to Fireteam Elite. Its just too bad they didn't go into further detail about the ruins on planet. I would like them to do a follow-up novel later on with more of the materials from the game.

Yeah I mean honestly for me Hoenikker for me is pretty weak as a character and I feel like if you wanted to make Monica's story mean more they shouldn't have killed her off until at least the end of the first campaign make her into more of a boss maybe see her mult from a drone into a warrior or praetorian. That said in still glad we have both these characters.
