Plague Bursters

Description

Those lucky, or unlucky, enough to survive an encounter with a Plague Lord, may become one of the Stage 2 infected known as a Burster. Once they are within range of a viable host, these bloated beings release streams of contagious organic matter, infecting an apparently unlimited number of victims. Even at a distance Bursters pose a threat – enemy fire has often been reported to cause Stage 2b’s to explode, sending out great showers of contagious gore and infecting any organism unfortunate enough to be in proximity.
