Cricket

The Cricket (codenamed Project Omega) is a Cryptid that was breeded by the Coil Arms Division with the use of a copy of the serum that created The Hybrid in order to create a superweapon. It serves as the final boss within the map Project Omega.

History
Millions of years ago when only the Cryptids roamed the Earth, they were visited by the Madrelerons, who managed to capture a few of them and brough them back to their homeworld of Frixion. There, the Madrelerons begin to start breeding the Cryptids in order to somewhat preserve their race from extinction, but also create an army out of the Cryptids.

During the early stages of the Human-Alien Conflict, members of the Coil Arms Division managed to infiltrate Frixion and managed to steal a few of these Cryptid specimens with plans of creating a superweapon out of them. Bringing the specimens to the Coil Arms Divisions base of operations, which is a massive space station in the outer orbit of the Milky Way Galaxy, they kept the specimens as alive as they could possibly be until they received intel from their spies within the Eclipse Medical and Health Services at Fort New Trinity on the serum the Galactic Council of Alliances was creating to fuel a new super soldier experiment.

With this information, the Coil Arms Division ordered their spies to send them schematics of the serum so they could replicate it in order to create a superweapon with the serum and their Cryptid specimens. After a series of trials, most of the specimens died while testing the serum on them. One however managed to survive being infused with the serum and ultimately passed all of the Coil Arms Division's tests. With this specimen, the organization now had their own superweapon ready to help them take over once both the humans and Madrelerons tired themselves of battle, dubbing their new Cryptid breed the Cricket.

After the survivors of the Fort New Trinity outbreak arrived at Frixion, they discover that the Coil Arms Division was reponsible for indirectly sabotaging the Cryptid hatchery on Frixion and the ensuing outbreak of zombies. Locating the organization's base, the survivors begin to head for the site with hopes of uncovering the truth behind the Coil Arms Division's motives. Around this time however, the Cricket began to succumb to the after effects of the serum used to create it, ultimately breaking free of its containment unit and infecting the facility with the use of its serum-infused saliva. By the time the survivors reach the facility, they see how ravaged it has become thanks to the Cricket.
