Leaper

The Leaper is one of the many species of Chimerans and is a product of a Crawlers failure to find a suitable host form.

To begin the process of transforming into a Leaper, a Crawlers begins a search for a means of sustenance whether it is through Human or animal corpses. Once they have gorged themselves, the Crawler transforms into a Leaper Pod which is a protective pupae state. After which, the Leaper is spawned once the pod reaches maturity.

Young Leapers are voracious creatures that attack their foes with their claws and teeth. While easily dispatched at range, the Leapers are deadly when they are encountered in large numbers.

Before making an attack, Leapers are known to make an ear splitting scream which has been known to terrify their foes.
