Flood stalker form

The Flood Stalker Form is a Flood Pure Form that specializes in stealth and agility. It is apparently made from the re-casted bones of dead enemies. It will frequently mutate into either a Ranged Form or a Tank Form when the need arises. This form sits low beneath your field of view and their attacks can go widely unnoticed until you look down. They are able to crawl on walls and ceilings with ease, and are capable of enormous jumps much like combat forms. A possible flaw in its AI is that it has been observed to rarely attack players, and normally prefers to mutate itself into one of the two other Pure Forms. It appears to attack more often on Cortana and Halo

How to Defeat Stalker Forms
Stalker forms are very weak, with a single blast from a Shotgun, slash from an Energy Sword, or a few bursts from an Assault Rifle capable of bring one down. They are incredibly fast and agile; however, so great accuracy is needed. If you can get up close, a single melee attack from any weapon, can usually bring one down. Any weapon will do, but grenades do a much better job, because their spindly physique makes them harder to hit. When playing on higher difficulties, they have a habit of mutating when they're stuck. The grenade appears to be absorbed but does not detonate, making it useless. If you hit them with an Incendiary Grenade or a Flamethrower, they will instantly jump away and scream, then they will die after a few seconds of burning. The name "Stalker" is represented quite well on both Cortana and Floodgate, as they blend in quite well with the surrounding, Flood-ridden walls.

Trivia

 * Stalker Forms are more likely to mutate into one of the other Pure Forms than to attack in open combat against a player.
 * The Stalker Form is notable for being extremely cowardly, when approached as it will attack a player if they are unaware of the Stalker's proximity.
 * The rear part of the stalker form seems to be parts of a human torso.
