Quantum Instantiation

A dark crystalline structure in an ancient ruin gifted — or perhaps cursed — HUX with sentience. It built a new body, and with it, a terrifying way to bend the rules of physics to its benefit.

QUANTUM INSTANTIATION
The Singularity starts the Trial with 8 Biopods.

The Singularity can shoot and these Biopods throughout the environment, which can attach themselves to any vertical surface they land on.

SPECIAL AFFLICTION: TEMPORAL SLIPSTREAM
The Singularity can remote-control a Biopod and look through it, and tag Survivors within 20 metres of the Biopod.

Tagging a Survivor afflicts them with Temporal Slipstream.
Temporal Slipstream can spread from one Survivor to another, if they come too close in proximity.

SPECIAL ABILITY: SLIPSTREAM TELEPORT
The Singularity can teleport next to a Slipstreamed Survivor either by using the Biopods to tag them again or by shooting them.

SPECIAL STATE: OVERCLOCK MODE
After a successful Slipstream Teleport, The Singularity enters Overclock Mode for the next 4.7 seconds.
Overclock Mode increases the Action speeds of the following interactions by +75 %:

• Breaking Breakable Walls or Pallets.
• Vaulting Windows

The Singularity cannot be stunned by Pallets while in Overclock Mode, doing so will merely remove the state and temporarily slow The Singularity.

SPECIAL INTERACTION: ELECTROMAGNETIC PULSE
Survivors can remove Slipstream by using an EMP on either themselves or on other Survivors.

A limited number of EMPs can be found inside Supply Cases, 7 of which are placed randomly in the environment.
Each EMP may only be used 1 time.
All Supply Cases still containing their EMP are highlighted to Slipstreamed Survivors in white.

EMPs may also be used to instead disable a Biopod for 45 seconds.
