That movie isn't some kind of a realistic presentation, because the guy wasn't really stuffed with antibiotics - his makeup is irrelevant.

The human body doesn't automaticly welcome a sudden intrusion of metal and wiring without some drastic sollutions.I don't remember that movie well, but you forgot about some things anyway: Therefore, it's often found in alcoves or other concealed areas.Ī more powerful variety, the Greater Psi Reaver, also exists.You know in the movie seven, where that one guy was stuffed with so much antibiotics to avoid infections, remember that look. The brain is defenseless and cannot move. The Psi Reaver’s brain is physically separate from the “body” - the “body” is a psychic projection of the Psi Reaver’s will. As psychic beings, they are capable of flotation, which is their primary means of movement. A small fleshy sack hangs behind this stalk, and a pair of green eyes sit at the creatures sides. They are squid-like, vaguely jellyfish in appearance, with four tentacle-like appendages dangling from their bulbous flesh-tone body, with a fifth less-developed one in the back, as well as a short eyestalk ending in a green eye. The Psi Reaver projection lacks any humanoid features whatsoever. In order to permanently kill a Psi Reaver, the player must locate and destroy its vulnerable brain stem. Killing only the Psi Reaver’s floating “body” is a temporary measure - when destroyed, this projection will reappear after 30 seconds. Psi Reavers float through the air, mostly keeping their distance from the player, as the rely on ranged psychic attacks. Psi Reavers are psychic beings and the most advanced and metabolically expensive forms for the Many to produce. These structures project powerful floating Psionic forms. The remains from this process form a structure of nerves and bone, which resemble a brain and spinal column.

When an Annelid Hybrid has mutated enough, its physical body is absorbed by the Many’s biomass. The Psi Reaver represents a final stage in the Annelid’s parasitic life cycle.
