ENEMY STUDY CASE (WIP)
When I switched off the console I also dreamt about them at night, so I decided to exorcise them by putting them in a table
STYGIANS
​Small, fast creatures that can make use of ranged and body attacks. Attracted by corpses and blood, they look like human arms. They can be found in outdoor areas, with large numbers in infected zones, as well as in enclosed areas and basements, where they become more dangerous due to the limited space for action on the part of the player. They have two types of resistance: poisons and acids. Weaks points of that breed is that can be killed by two melee attacks or one or two bullets. Taken individually they are not so dangerous, but if caught in groups combined by different types they can become lethal
​
There are 4 types of Stygians:
Harvester,Smoker,Healer,Screamer.
​
When a stygian dies, it dissolves into a black mould
Harvester
Is the aggressive one and the most common of the stygians, he attacks with his stinger before some jumps and fast movements attempting to surprise the player.
He has an arachnid-shaped body with a greyish skin colouring
​
​
Smoker
A very rare one . It's very hard to find in game.
As the name say, his skill is to use smoke to elude his presence during combat. In combination with other stygians can hide his own companions, making difficult to predict attacks by the player. He has black\blue-ish skin with a spidershape-body
Healer
Like the Harvest has arachnid-shape but the mouth zone has an octopus shape melted in the body and his skin has a grey-pink color. He is the healer of the stygian releasing a "smoke"
Screamer
Like the Harvest he has a grey skin and arachnid-shape body (scorpion).Its screams reduce the players`s sanity and velocity making player vulnerable for other types of Wylebeasts. The body attack is similar to the Harvest
LETHIAN
Originally residents of Oakmont, a pathogen has corrupted and mutated them into humanoid wylebeasts.There are three types of Lethians. Revenant being the most common. Immortals have rapid regeneration,and Wraiths that "disappeared." Wraiths fade in and out of existence in bluish tones, and can be seen via your Mind's Eye.
Some bullets may be sufficient to kill a lethian especially when the player aim to their mouth before he spits (when they charge the attack). The player must be alert to the vomit projectiles that the lethians throw (only ranged attack)
Revenant
Is the most common of the Lethians.
Immortals
A type of Lethian that can become invisible; you can detect it only by distortions in the air created when they move
Wraith
A type of Lethian that can become invisible; you can detect it only by distortions in the air created when they move
COCITIANS
Their body is a human torso. In the game the lore is that they was a Oakmont inhabitans thath turned into this monster by eating a lot of human meat.
​​
Walking with their arms are able to give powerful bites (body attack) when close to the player. It is a type of enemy that may seem almost easy to kill alone, but found in a group with other wylebeasts it becomes dangerous as it is ‘discreet’ compared to faster or bulkier enemies. The most vulnerable spot on his body is definitely that ‘mouth’ on his back. When this opens, the monster takes more damage, and if the player shoots during the opening of the mouth in a few shots he can win the duel.
