	The Scourge are best described as a jellyfish-like species with fragile, boneless bodies comprised of a central mass and a myriad of tentacles. They are unable to move freely outside of liquid in gravity beyond 0.5G, suggesting an aquatic natural environment. Scourge communication is entirely silent leading to theories ranging from telepathy to ultrasound as to how they communicate. It is also theorized that the parasitic aspects of their species did not appear until late in their evolution, as Scourge beyond the larval stage of their lifespan are unable to manifest such abilities.

	Scourge larvae have the ability to integrate themselves with the nervous systems of other creatures, taking control of the victims body in the process. It is reported to take up to several months for full integration with a human host, an experience that is understood to be incredibly painful for the victim. It is believed that Scourge hosts retain full awareness whilst possessed, leading to a long life of constant pain and eventual insanity.

	All Scourge vehicles are at least partially organic in nature and are piloted by adult Scourge that failed to take a host before maturity. The pilots are suspended in a black, tar-like nutrient soup and neurologically (and permanently) integrated into their respective machines in a technological reproduction of the Scourge possession process. This melding of alien and machine gives Scourge pilots an unprecedented level of control over their vehicles, resulting in incredibly organic and instinctive maneuvers unmatched by any other species.
