Void Infestor

The  is a monster added in the Survivors of the Void update.

Environments

 * Any

Skills & Behavior
Void Infestors do not naturally spawn in the world; instead, there are 2 special ways they can appear: 0-4 Void Infestors will spawn after interacting with a Void Cradle, and when defeating a Elite monster, a single Void Infestor will appear from its corpse.

Unlike other monsters, Void Infestors' health decays over time, and they will die within 30 seconds even if no damage is dealt.

Infest
After appearing, a Void Infestor will move quickly and erratically, making it difficult for any Survivors to hit it. When it gets close enough to another, it makes a flying leap towards it. If the Infestor makes contact with its target, it latches onto it and the victim becomes Voidtouched. These Voidtouched characters become hostile and begin attacking the Survivors, even if they were previously allied when uninfested.

After defeating a Voidtouched monster, the Void Infestor will leave the monster's corpse with the same HP it had before, and it can infest another target if it is not defeated.

Trivia

 * The "596f757220707269736f6e" in this monster's logbook entry is hexadecimal for "Your prison".
 * In keeping with the deep-sea theme of the Void and the monsters related to it, the Void Infestor's visual design seems to draw inspiration from ocean life, especially crustaceans and other arthropods. Infestors in particular bear a striking resemblance to giant isopods (family Cirolanidae).
