Types of Stromlings

Basic Stromling

The basic Stromling is a corruption of the typical human. Their appearances can vary wildly depending on the time passed from infection, usually indicated by states of decay, calcification, and crystallization. Most all basic Stromlings develop weapons, typically a blade-arm.

Chainsaw Stromling

A variation of the basic Stromling, Chainsawlings develop a more lethal chainsaw-arm weapon and exhibit super speed.

Hammer Stromling

Another variation of the basic Stromling, Hammerlings develop a hammer-arm weapon. The heaviest hitting and most physically destructive of the basic Stromlings, they pose greater threats to infrastructure.

Stromling Pirate

The Stromling Pirate variation is based on infected pirates from Galaz, many of whom were infected after the explosion of Crux.

Stromling Admiral

As with the pirates, the Stromling Admirals are corruptions of higher ranking pirates. They tend to carry heavier arms than regular pirates.

Stromling Mech

The non-humanoid Stromling Mechs are corruptions of the Assembly Defense Robots, originally deployed to defend Nexus Force establishments, but overrun and infected by the Spider Queen during her escape from the Paradox Research Facility on Avant Gardens. They are so terrifying and effective as Forces of Maelstrom that entire Maelstrom factories are dedicated to their mass production.

Dark Ronin

Ancient suits of legendary armor reanimated with Maelstrom Energy that Dark Ronin are without bodies to kill, making them difficult to stop and capable of much destruction.

Maelstrom Horseman

The Horsemen are Dark Ronin astride corrupted horses.

Dark Spiderling

Heavily armed and armored Spiderlings are the offspring of Maelstrom Spiders.

Maelstrom Spider

Heavily armed and armored, an individual Maelstrom Spider is a force to reckoned with, and a cluster is nearly unstoppable.
