Infection Form



 * This form, while harmless from a distance and on its own, is dangerous in large numbers and can therefore compensate for its fragility with numbers and overwhelm larger creature[s]. They are able to infect any large (and smart enough) organism by latching onto it and penetrating down to its nervous system with tendrils and releasing spores. The Flood forces a match with the host's brain levels and can begin to control its bodily functions. The Infection form then deflates it self and nestles within the relative safety of a host's body cavity. Their spores begin to alter the host, using its calcium stores to conjure additional flood super-cell biomass, and change the genetic structure of the host's anatomy, mutating and growing tentacles and whatever else is of use.

Covenant Combat Form



 * The Covenant Combat Form is a formidable enemy; it is capable of a deadly physical attack using its tentacles (once the arms of the Covenant host), as well as having the ability to wield both human and Covenant weapons. It is very fast, very strong, and can jump great distances. Reliance on the host life support systems render it vulnerable to shotgun blasts. Some of them have got Covenant Elite Energy Shields and occasionally Active Camouflage. Unfortunately, because of Elite physiology they are 'bigger' than the human form there for presenting a bigger target.

Human Combat Form



 * The Human Combat Form is significantly smaller than the Covenant version (due to the comparative differences of the host bodies), and is both slower and weaker than its Covenant counterpart (though it has the same jumping ability). It shows a preference for human weapons, and can be deadly with a shotgun in close quarters. As with other Combat Forms, it is capable of sustaining massive physical damage before being unusable to the Flood Infection Form; in fact, as long as the chest cavity and legs remain intact, it will continue to try and fight.

Flood Juggernaut



 * The Flood Juggernaut is very large, perhaps twice as tall as the Master Chief, coupled with the fact that it has been said that the creature's tentacles could kill the Master Chief in one blow. It has been spotted in the Quarantine Zone to stop the Sentinels, and one can imagine with it's long legs and long tentacles, that it would have little problem snatching an Enforcer out of the sky and tearing it apart.
