albino Xenomorph (albino Xenomorph)
In 1987, James Cameron filmed " alien 2 " , originally intended to add a new alien species to the scene of the alien lair. Glue the little girl Newt to the inner wall of the nest (equivalent to separating the types of combat and nest building). However, the fighting ability of this alien is weak, and it can't provide exciting action scenes. The producer believes that there is no need to spend more budget on "this kind of boring trick" , and quickly rejected this setting. So this kind of alien only exists in the original script of "Alien 2" , and there is no official name, just because the whole body is white, fans call them albino alien .
Compared with ordinary varieties, albino aliens do not have short and strong black "inner jaw bones". On the contrary, their "inner jaw bones" are extremely soft, slender and a bit too long, and appear "evil" "The pink color makes people unbearable to look directly at it (this is another reason why the producer rejected it).
According to Cameron 's vision, albino profile is mainly responsible for the construction and daily maintenance of the nest. They use their long tongues to smear the secreted jelly and form it after drying. The inner wall of the nest we saw in the movie. In addition, albino alien also shoulders the important task of taking care of the alien queen .Ensure that the latter can get enough nutrients when they cannot move during the spawning period.
carrier (carrier Xenomorph)
"carrier" evolved from the drone in the nest and is slightly larger than the latter. The most obvious feature of this alien breed is that its back breathing tubes have all evolved into curved "spins" , suitable for smaller individuals (such as " " and "broken". The chest" ) clings to it.
With this advantage, "carrier" can take those "face bugs" that have matured but have not had time to find a host (or the egg worm is destroyed), and Continue to provide them with nutrition. Once the "carrier" thinks the time is right (or is attacked), the "launch thorn" on its back can eject the "face bug" , allowing them to quickly approach the opponent from a very exaggerated distance . In addition, "carriers" can also take those newly born and weak "breastbreakers " away from the danger zone.Generally speaking, it is a nanny-type breed.
"Carrier" first appeared in the real-time strategy game "AVP: Extinction".
Gorilla Xenomorph (gorilla Xenomorph)
"Gorilla Alien" first appeared in the dark horse comics "Alien: Jungle War" , infected by "" Zeestrong4strong" An alien species born from a primate on the world. Compared with those of relatives who have infected humans, "orangutan alien" has a thicker torso and limbs, and its strength and speed are far superior to the former.
In 2179, the USS Sephora (USS Sephora) carried the colony marines on the Phobos Wieland Yustrong Weyland Yustrong (Weyland Yustrong) This kind of "orangutan alien" was encountered in the research center. After investigation, it was found that they were the result of an alien population diversity experiment conducted by Wieland Company at Zewanxing.
Arachnid Xenomorph (arachnid Xenomorph)
"Arachnid Xenomorph" The settings are more interesting, they are all worms that have been unable to find their hosts for a long time, strong4strong, in the "carrier" continuous nutrition With the supply, the embryos in the worm will develop and mature on their own without a host.
The grown "Spider Alien" retains the six spider-like legs of the face bug, and the head and torso look like drones with one size smaller, which makes them look like they are Cockroaches crawling in the nest. However, "Spider Alien" does not possess strong acid blood like the worms and adult aliens. It may be the result of the embryo neutralizing its own acidity during the development process.
The Flying Queen
The huge body and heavy exoskeleton make the queen the most intimidating alien species. Imagine the oppression that this creature has wings and can fly. feel.
"Flying Queen" mutated from the ordinary Alien Queen , usually because there are multiple queens in the nest. In order to avoid occupying limited survival resources,Other queens will evolve wings and become ordinary combat units again at the cost of giving up their fertility.
The "Queen of Flying" wing skeleton comes from the variation of its back breathing tube, and its wingspan can exceed eight meters. Some human air units that lack heavy armor protection (such as the UD-4 "Cheyenne" transport boat) are not necessarily Is its opponent.
infectoid
"infectoid" belongs to the alien species in the alien group, they are all products of the mutation of human beings replaced by their own blood. Sometimes after alien grabs humans back to the nest, they will not immediately infect them with alien, but use some unknown method to replace these human blood with alien acidic body fluids. Although most people will die painfully in this process, a small part will survive the violent mutation and become the so-called "infected body" .
Every "infected body" is like a walking corpse, and the whole body is swollen like a corpse soaked in water. Their bodies have been completely hollowed out, and they can only move at an extremely slow speed. However, the "infected body" can breed face worms just like the ovoid , and there is more than one. Compared with the ovoid , which cannot move and lacks self-protection ability, "infected body" has unparalleled advantages.
"Infected Body" first appeared in "Alien" and "AVP" arcade games.
