Xenomorph Hosts?

Tue 02 Nov 2021, 20:27

I had a bizarre thought. Are the various Xenomorphs potential hosts to other variant Xenomorphs? What about Anathemas? Would Neomorphic Motes infect other variants of Xenos?

that's a good question.

I know that xenomorph knows when a someone has a chestburster inside them and they leave them alone. so this is one thing.

Xenomorph don't like bodyburster (someone who is changing into a xenomorph from the inside) ... see alien 3 (William Gibson's script) or Destroyer of Worlds scenario. Xenomorph just want to kill those bodyburster with no respect.

Xenomorph and Neomorph are not an happy family too (they just want to kill each other).

Anathemas with the finale stage are dying so they would be very unlucky to catch a facehugger (or a neomorphic motes) but I think the facehugger (motes) would know it's not good material.

That makes a lot of sense. However fun it would be to have some nasty combo to drop on jaded players, lol.

You could make a new kind of xenomorph with that

with new effects

this could stop the new anathemas from dying for sure

This sounds like the premise behind the necromorph in the Alien: Prototype. Maybe a facehugger that implanted an embryo in a stage I anathema would lead to the birthing of a Xenomorph Anathema that could spread that pathogen around until it succumbed and exploded into both acid blood and pathogen.
