Mutants are special, Dark matter mutated Scorn units created through a strange, dark pact, and utilize their strange powers to savagely attack their adversaries.

Overview[edit]

Seldom is the presence of a Mutant not heralded by their agonized shrieking. Initially and usually, these units will be in a normal, enraged state, using their sheer size and aggression to press into their opponents as the Scorn's new, heavy and resilient berserker units. Their main means of attack is a darkness-empowered tentacle, with almost hand-like protrusions at their tip, sprouting from an opening in their right shoulder, which they will use to club, smash and crush their opponents upon approach, and can even lunge at an opponent to rapidly close the gap between their opponents and themselves. Should an opponent be distant, the Mutant may unleash a wave of Stasis energy or even vomit up Dark matter energy on their adversaries. Their most fearsome attack, however, first heralded by a soul-piercing shriek, is a grab attack, where if their tentacle connects with a Guardian, it will wrap around their prey and rapidly slam their opponent into the ground or even bite into them before viciously throwing them away.

While their berserk state is indeed makes them a formidable and versatile threat, it is merely the surface of what these units are capable of. During combat, one might find them engulfed with Dark matter, them twisting and contorting with a new presence entering them before they snap back into battle and begin moving around with an almost confident and almost graceful gait. While they still strike with their dark tendrils and can lunge and unleash waves of energy, they seemingly do it faster. Additionally, when near enough to an opponent, they will create a singularity of energy between their "hands" at the end of their tendril, drawing in opponents and, shortly, create an explosion with devastating effect that also jolts opponents. In the middle of combat, the Mutant may either naturally push themselves into the air, or do so while within melee range of an opponent, attempting to nail them as they propel themselves into the air. In this state, they will rapidly float around, often attempting a strike or two with their tendril, or channeling the dark matter swirling around them. Raising their tendril in the air, they can create a volley of tracking Matterspark Lances that will rapidly home in on a target and deal significant damage. With a flourish in the air, they can also unleash a whirlwind of dark matter, dealing sheer arc damage and even displacing opponents caught in it. After a prolonged period in their levitational state, the Mutant will close in on a nearby threat and slam down their tentacle upon them, and finally return to their ground state.
