(S9) ENTER THE XENO

The Titans were not the only threat the TDF faced during these attacks. An alien race, known as the Xeno,
infiltrated bases and planets by stealth, claw and fangs. The Xeno laid waste to human settlements, usually
beyond the reach of the TDF Navy. The Xenos were even known to rarely infest a mighty Titan. Using their
XENO
ability to rapidly mutate, the Xenos could even form a biological link with the Titan AI and take control. A shell
of Xeno mucus would spread over the hull of the Titan infected in this manner.
