It is the evolution of a basic Parasite. It is hostile towards inferior Parasites, and embodies a direct threat to the Seekers as well. It is a real menace in lots of aspects since, when it steps in, here is what you are not allowed to do: you cannot deploy Machines in its region you cannot build a Wonder in its region you cannot extract Qoam in its region you cannot add Parasites to its region, harming players that follow a "parasite-hunting" strategy When a Seeker manages to defeat the Aberration the miniature is removed from the game (for now) and points are scored by the Seeker.
