The Muton is a variant of enemy alien from the X-Com series.
Bio[edit | edit source]
Mutons serve as the dumb muscle and foot soldiers of the Alien forces. While presumably originating as part of a natural species, Mutons have undergone extensive amounts of surgery and are stuffed with cybernetic implants; turning them into purpose-built killing machines. Their 'skin' in particular actually happens to be a form of organically-grown armor grafted onto their body, and allows them to shrug off armor-piercing rounds that would turn regular flesh into a fine red mush.
Being created as mindless soldiers, Mutons are not particularly clever, and are extremely vulnerable against psychic attacks. This goes so far that severing their telepathic link with the commanding Ethereals will instantaneously cause them to drop down and die. In their defense, actually getting to that point without being torn apart limb by limb is quite a bit harder than it sounds.
In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]
A Muton appeared in 8chanmania XVI, but lacking records mean nothing beyond it not winning a belt has survived.
