It is unknown whether this ability stems from their strange psychokinetic powers, or from their seemingly mechanical parts.ĭuring the Black Mesa incident on Earth, Controllers only appeared very rarely. Unlike the Nihilanth, the Controllers have long legs and are able to levitate without the assistance of a mechanical seat. Although these attacks resemble flame, they are actually spheres of electrical energy, like ball lightning.

They can also fire an energy ball from their head that is larger, more powerful and has a slight homing ability. They attack by firing fiery spheres from their hands, in the same way as the Nihilanth. In addition to this, the Controllers have disproportionately large heads, which can peel open to reveal a (apparently mechanical) spike or cone. Like these other sapient species on Xen, the Controllers have a third vestigial arm growing from the center of the thorax.

The Controllers share many characteristics with the Vortigaunts, Gargantuas, Alien Grunts, and especially the Nihilanth, suggesting that they are all closely related. They appear much more frequently within the complex in Half-Life: Decay during moments of increased displacement activity. In Half-Life, they do not appear in the Black Mesa Research Facility until Gordon Freeman is about to teleport into Xen, and they are more numerous in the alien world itself. Physically, the Controllers are small, levitating creatures which closely resemble the Nihilanth.

He then picked up Azian, and put her on the bed. In a few seconds, the vortigaunt came out the door, and eli got up and smashed it's face repeatedly. Eli, in deep anger, instantly killed the Grunt, and held his wife. A quarter of an hour later, Eli came, and found her on the floor. The Grunt guarded the door, while a vortigaunt searched for more humans. But one Alien Grunt was careful, and grabbed her arm, and swung her at the wall, killing her. When the aliens finally teleported into the dorms, she surprised them, stabbing several of them. Later on, she came back from a period of scouting, realising there were aliens all over. When the Black Mesa incident occured, Azian took her daughter and hid her under her bed, safetly, comfortably, and gave her some food and a milk bottle, in case she was there for a long time. She was killed by an Alien Grunt in her dormitory when the Black Mesa Incident happened.Īzian has a daughter, Alyx Vance, and husband, Eli Vance, the main character of our mod.
