At this point, the Pod infector burrows into the host body, moving aside the internal organs and taking up residence within the chest cavity (or any approximate equivalent). These cells interface with the host's cells, "digest" them and convert their components into new Flood cells. At this point, the Pod infector has complete control over the body's motor functions.Īs the Pod infector hacks into the host's nervous system, it releases encapsulated Flood Super Cells into the body. Once this is accomplished, the form rewrites the neural pathways of the victim's brain with its tendrils, forcing a resonant frequency match between its neural signals and the host's. These appendages penetrate deep into the body, tap into the victim's spinal cord, and unleash an attack on the host's nervous system via direct contact with the spine. Once within range of a potential host, they leap for the victim's chest area, rasping away at armor, clothing and flesh with their numerous tentacle-like limbs. While small (roughly the size of a human torso) and weak, they travel in huge swarms and overwhelm foes using sheer numbers. Pod infectors are the primary vector for the Flood infection.
