Byron — Description
An advanced Bdellis, Byron has survived in the miles of tunnels long enough to gain intelligence. Though he has evolved into a sentient member of his race, he has not updated his weapons and body to accommodate it. While others may assimilate machinery and weapons into their form, Byron has chosen to stick with his natural weapons and physical attacks. Instead, he has chosen to perfect his primitive tools and ways, turning him into a master in hand to hand combat. The spines and claws that cover his body are all used in battle, with him spinning, bending and twisting to turn them into weapons. His arms can unleash flurries of piercing blows, while his spiny legs are used to impale enemies. The air bladders on his back allow him to unleash powerful blasts of air, which he uses for dashing or jumping incredible heights. All of this is combined to make him a nightmare on the battle field, a tornado of blades and claws.

In desperate measures, when the tides turn against him, he can unleash his orb of eyes, allowing it to bounce around the battle field. This simple maneuver is perfect for distracting enemies, causing them to lose focus or try to dodge out of the way at the wrong moment. Once an opponent trips up, Byron is quick to seize the opportunity and impale them on his claws.

Another boss design for Rupture.

Ever since I spent half a summer measuring spiny water fleas, I don't think I will ever be able to stray away from the angel design that I kept seeing in them.
