Terminal Cells are small algae-like creatures that are injected into neighboring subs by a Thalamus' Flesh Spike. They serve as the primary offensive mechanism of the Thalamus, and are effective at eating a ship from the inside.

Description

Terminal cells are incredibly small, and share many of the traits associated with the Leucocyte. They share the ability to enter a submarine and damage players; albeit more slowly and with less damage than the Leucocyte. They also have the unique ability that causes them to detonate when shot, creating a high intensity of flash, hull damage, and Burns.

In-Game

Terminal cells are repeatedly injected by a Thalamus' Flesh Spike when a submarine body gets close enough. There is an upper limit to how many Terminal Cells may be in a ship at a time, so killing them may not be advisable until the Flesh Spike -- and by extension the Thalamus -- is dealt with, since there will always be more injected to replace the ones that have died.

Trivia

• Terminal Cells are one of the first creatures that limit options on how to deal with them, as melee damage can result in heavy injury from the resulting explosion.
• In the real world, some cells permanently leave the cell cycle by dismantling cell machinery and expressing genes similar to the cell's final function in a process named terminal differentiation. This might provide insight into the terminal cell's suicidal nature.
