Phoenix Logs/Leaders/Voridus


 * The corrupter.


 * Voridus is many things that his elder brother is not: glory-seeking, vicious,
 * curious, and spontaneous. Gifted with an intuitive understanding of Forerunner
 * systems, he has ruthlessly exploited the Ark for new resources and knowledge
 * since the Banished arrived, culminating in his recent harnessing of infusion gel.


 * Infusion gel is a perfected form of the energetic meta-materials and strained-
 * bond lattices used in Covenant fuel rods, and is one of the materials pumped
 * throughout the Ark in great rivers to keep the installation functioning.
 * Unfortunatly, the prototype infusion technology Voridus created produces
 * corrosive and mutagenic sludge during operation. Not that this has stopped
 * Voridus from field testing new weapons that actually harness these dangerous
 * by-products.


 * As a leader, Voridus has bent his considerable intellect to perfecting the military
 * uses of infusion gel, utilizing it in powerful Infused Mine explosives and creating
 * an Infused Wake of corrupting energy with targeted bombing runs. With Salt
 * the Earth he spreads energy pools, while the Invigorating Frenzy leader ability
 * heals allies that are in energy pools. Cataclysm triggers the energy pools latent
 * potential, resetting their duration and significantly increasing the damage they
 * cause to enemy units (even those in the air). When not manipulating gel, his
 * Combat Spoils leader ability orders his units to salvage a small amount of
 * resources when dealing damage to enemy buildings.
