Freak

Freaks are a type of enemy that are men whose bodies have been ravaged and deformed by Nekro. They first appear in Chapter 1: The Lab, and do not reappear until Chapter 7: The Arena.

Appearance
They are savage looking men who have malformed heads, and bloated hands. They are missing chunks of hair from their heads and also have bandages wrapped around their heads and hands for unknown reasons (they could possibly be restraints, or applied medically due to them injuring themselves). They have a single golden tooth and their clothing, with the exception of their boots, are all tattered and have holes in them.

Background
They are former neighbors of the protagonists who have been used as unwilling test subjects for Nekro, and were unfortunate enough to have been reduced to a zombie-like state, with their minds pushed into delirium.

Description
Freaks can be seen for the first time at the start of the area, where a group of them are in a containment cell.

The next Freak to appear is lying on the ground and convulsing, and functions as a free, bottomless source of Nekro. After entering the sewers part of the Lab level, the players will be properly introduced to them and encounter them through out the level, and they will even appear in the fight with the Mutant.

They make a reappearance in Chapter 7: The Arena, as part of the 3rd wave of the level.

Enemy Behavior
They move incredibly slowly most of the time, and tend to either wander around or approach the protagonists slowly. When in range, they will strike a vicious looking pose while making gargling noises and lunge for the protagonists, pinning them to the ground and gnawing at them. This seems to be their only attack.

In Chapter 1, the purple shirted experiments are completely pacifistic in nature and are of no threat to the player whatsoever, however, the other two experiments are hostile.
