| An interesting medical/genetic mystery. Lacking pretty all organs and most of them dead (only remaining functioning organ is the stomach) this one should have died pre-birth. Or when the brain shut down just a few minutes after hatching. A result of cross-breeding during the early phase of a WR.
Edit: Doesn't seem to age normally either, so it needs some external CAOS Command Line help.
Uses the C3 Jungle Grendel and Banshee Grendel sprites. |

yeah, breeding TW/CBs with other things tends to not go well at all

Well, there was some splicing involved in his lineage. And you're correct that there's some TCB involved.

It seem this creature is missing about half his genes
(385 compared to a banshee's 822) Which includes alot of organs, he's also missing any initial concentrations, organs explaining his immortality. At least one of the parents was probably a TCB grendel, because he has some body heat genes and a halflife for it, but the lobes of a vanilla banshee.
Edit: His mother was a first gen if that helps.

Dead organs, dead brain, yet not a dead creature? My first guess would be that the genome got wrecked beyond recognition. Not sure how those screening devices react to an organ not even being present at all.
However, with a mutation like that, ironically immortality seems more than likely. My bet is that the genes responsible for triggering death upon various occasions got, like the organs, deleted or mangled to a point of being completely useless.
Are you sure he's just a plain Jungle/Banshee cross? And was he conceived the normal way or did you have a hand in that...?
Occurrences like this at generation 6 generally are caused either by incompatible or volatile genomes being involved, or through horrific splicer accidents.
