Between [[2531]] and [[2537]], [[Serina]] designed a Bison with a vacuum energy siphon, scientific instrumentation, and cryotech weaponry. As there are no Bisons aboard the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}}, [[Isabel]] looked at improving and repurposing the siphon with her own research data on [[Forerunner]] vacuum energy cells, but the delicacy and intricacy of Serina's manufacturing template complicates this effort.<ref name="cf"/> | Between [[2531]] and [[2537]], [[Serina]] designed a Bison with a vacuum energy siphon, scientific instrumentation, and cryotech weaponry.

The Bison is a hero unit exclusive to Serina | The Bison is a hero unit exclusive to Serina. It is a heavily armored and shielded vehicle that works well in conjunction with other cryotech units and abilities. Its Coldsnap Launcher fires experimental cryo shells that damage and chill enemies caught in its area of effect. The Coldsnap Launcher can be upgraded to increase damage, range, and freezing speed. The Bison's Cryo Burst ability allows it to "lock down" and deploy a chilly aura that freezes enemies caught within. They can be purchased at the Armory. Unupgraded Bisons perform well against vehicles, but only okay against infantry, aircraft, and structures. Once the ''Heavy Cryp Burst'' upgrade has been purchased, the Bison will perform well against infantry. In [[Blitz]], the Bison costs 220 energy and is a Legendary Unit. | ||
