Enemies>Halo 3>The Flood>Carrier

3D Model

Comes with a crude laying down to explode animation. Walking and flying back death animations are attatched.

The carrier has a variety of forms. The spawner form can spawn Flood forms anywhere it wishes without killing itself in the process, while the burster spawns a variety of Flood forms once its internal pressure has reached a certain point. The bomber form floats using its gas bladders, dropping blisters full of pod infectors and spores onto enemies below.

The Flood carrier forms have two types: converted and demoted. The converted carrier forms are hosts with little offensive capabilities, and transformed into carrier forms inmediately. The demoted carrier forms are combat forms that have outlived their usefulness or become too damaged to fight. In both cases, the carrier form will begin to spontaneously generate Pod infectors within their host bodies. As the upper body swells to grotesque proportions, the limbs of the combat form wither away into stumpy legs and flailing tentacle-like appendages.
