In the original Dead Space and Dead Space 2, the Enhanced Lurker has the same body structure as a Lurker but is entirely black, far more resistant to damage and fires more lethal barbs. The tentacles are able to launch barbs at high speed and accuracy, making the Lurker a ranged threat. Like the limbs associated with movement, these extremities are strong and flexible, able to whip around and rake opponents with their barbs. These tentacles aid the Lurker in its locomotion, steadying its movements and allowing it to walk along walls and even creep over ceilings without losing speed.Ĭoiled in the former pelvic area are three long, ropy tentacles, which unfurl when the Lurker has spotted a victim. This covering is stiff and leathery in order to provide protection and a support structure for the many sticky tentacles that now dominate the thoracic cavity and lower abdomen. The only recognizable features left upon this form of Necromorph is the general shape of its skin, the silhoutte of the head, and the unchanged limbs dangling at its sides.

Lacking both the coordination and muscle mass demanded to efficiently kill, the unlucky victims and corpses transformed into a Lurker are treated more like a lump of biomass than an existing template, around which the pathogen recombines it into an offensive form. Lurkers are an extensively mutated Necromorph form, sporting a number of adaptations to facilitate ranged and low-gravity combat.
