Husks are one of the units that make up the troops of the Dread.
Overview[edit]
Like other Dread, the Husks were created by the Witness using the Light of the Traveler in combination with its own resonant Darkness. In one instance, a Husk was created from a Fallen from the House of Salvation, where their body was reshaped into the Husk itself while their mind was seemingly manifested as the Geist within.[1]
Gameplay[edit]
Husks are fast-moving, melee-focused enemies that prioritize overwhelming the player with their speed, area-denying grenades and their special ability to unleash a seeking projectile, called a Geist, upon non-critical hit deaths that explode upon impact, dealing moderate amounts of damage. They often spawn in groups of three or more, rarely as a single Husk with no other enemies around, or with other enemies but as its only kind there. Husks have a large weak spot on their chest, if killed by a final blow to this area, it cause the Geist within to detonate and kill the Husk without spawning its Geist.

Trivia[edit]
- Husks bear a resemblance both to the Hive (e.g. both have three eyes) and to the Caretaker, an entity created by Rhulk by implanting a Worm larva within a Scorn. While it is never explicitly stated in-game, Husks may be derived from either Hive or Scorn.
- However, in Episode: Heresy, one was confirmed to have been derived from a Fallen.[1]
- When a Husk is stunned, their chest can be seen pulsing.
