Cellular Mimicry
The Xenolith adopts a softer, porous structure to better interface with biological cells. Infectivity increased but Xeno-forming slowed
Crust Breach
Accelerated seed tendrils bore horizontally through the crust. Adjacent countries reached sooner.
Epidermal Shedding
Infected skin constantly micro-fractures, spreading shards onto nearby surfaces. Infected people can infect others faster
Ferrous Attraction
The lattice detects conductive ore veins in the crust and grows through them before focusing on surrounding bedrock. Adjacent countries reached sooner.
Flash-Vitrification
A cascading resonance reaction converts all biological matter into crystal in milliseconds. Victims are instantly preserved as statues More likely to be infected if on xeno-formed ground
Geometric Sprawl
Rapidly convert concrete and steel structures, turning cities into massive, crystalline amplifiers. Xeno-forming accelerated - particularly in urban areas
Grid Siphoning
Xenolith senses high-voltage electricity. Power grids support new crystal growth. Xeno-forming accelerated - particularly in wealthy areas
Harmonic Field
The crystal emits a short-range resonant field. Organic matter within 2 meters of the Xenolith slowly begins to align into a lattice. Decreases future research speed
Harmonic Resonance
A hyper-frequency hum shatters molecular bonds in stone and asphalt. Xeno-forming accelerated
Ionic Displacement
The crystal field forcibly knocks iron and silicon atoms out of the local dirt and pulls them into the Xenolith structure, discarding the rest as waste. Decreases future research speed
Lattice Optimization
The crystal structure self-corrects atomic flaws. Perfect internal geometry allows for frictionless, exponential expansion across the terrain. Xeno-forming accelerated
Lithic Fissures
The Xenolith generates rhythmic micro-tremors that shatter surrounding bedrock allowing roots to exploit geological weak points. Xeno-forming accelerated
Lithic Seed
The meteorite siphons ambient heat from the impact crater. A crystal spire penetrates the rock and begins converting non-organic matter. Ground xeno-forming begins
Macro-crystallisation
Lattice frequencies optimized to propagate faster through larger crystals. Xeno-forming accelerated but infectivity reduced
Metabolic Siphon
The crystals adapt to harvest biological heat as a prime energy source Infectivity increased but Xeno-forming slowed
Mineral Leaching
Xenolith aggressively strips trace minerals from the subject's bloodstream to accelerate crystalisation More likely to be infected if on xeno-formed ground
Molecular Cleavage
Xenolith aggressively strips trace minerals from the subject's bloodstream to accelerate crystallisation Decreases future research speed
Organic Bridge
The Xenolith adapts to carbon-based life. Physical contact with Xeno-formed ground converts skin into a spreading crystalline lattice. Xeno-formed ground can infect humans.
Piezo-Static Charge
Massive electrical buildup strips electrons from surrounding soil. Dust and debris are magnetically slammed into the crystal lattice to fuel growth. Decreases future research speed
Polymer Assimilation
The crystal structure adapts to consume synthetic materials like plastics and insulation. Xeno-forming accelerated - particularly in urban areas
Replicating Lattice
Crystallised lattice transfers to other organic beings upon physical contact. Infected people can infect others
Seismic Liquefaction
The Xenolith emits specific vibrations to destabilise sandy soil. Creates fluid pathways for deep expansion. Adjacent countries reached sooner.
Silicate Exhalation
Alveoli constantly shed microscopic shards which are released into the air. Infected people can infect others faster
Silicate Purism
Improved efficiency for non organic matter but reduced efficiency for organic life forms. Xeno-forming accelerated but infectivity reduced
