The Hive
A299 A-D
A range of related larval organisms, A299-A, B, C and D are presumed to derive from Anteverse 299, where similar entities were observed on the first - and only - TransRecon expedition to that location. Following the destabilization of the GATE Cascade Research Facility's perforation network, the organisms (and a portion of their hive) appear to have intersected an area of the Facility's older and defunct mining region, which was previously solid rock, interspersed with horizontal mineshafts. While under-researched, the creatures are believed to be a hive entity that communicates largely by scent and olfactory cues. The organisms are also believed to, at some phase in their life-cycle, form the structure of the hive itself. Their intelligence or otherwise is yet to be determined and will require further research.
