Headcrab Zombie Guard is a boss on Slender Fortress.
Description[]
The Zombie is a fictional creature in the Half-Life and Black Mesa universe. A Zombie is created when a Headcrab latches onto the head of a human host. A poorly understood transformation follows, transforming the host's fingers into claws and splitting open their torso, revealing their internal organs. The Zombie closely resembles its human host in height, though it commonly appears hunched, with its claws displayed in a threatening manner. The most distinctive feature of a Zombie is the Xenian parasite, the Headcrab, which remains latched over the victim's head. The victim of the transformation retains most of his or her clothing, though it appears torn or bloodied, perhaps from a previous struggle or as a result of the transformation. Despite the Zombie's grotesque appearance, it is a relatively simple enemy for the player to deal with, as it mostly shambles slowly towards its prey. However, Zombies can be quite dangerous in close-quarters combat and also have the ability to 'bash' objects towards the player. Zombies will normally make their presence known with low, guttural groans. Upon death, a Zombie will release a sharp gurgling sound. Unless met with a headshot, the Headcrab will survive its host's death, and is likely to attack within an instant of the Zombie hitting the ground. Also worth noting are the disfigured remains of the host's head, which suggest that the Headcrab feeds from the host or that it is the result of the transformation.
In Slender Fortress[]
Headcrab Zombie Guard is in Half-Life Pack. The Headcrab Zombie Guards spawn in up to 4 but usually 3. They deal about as much damage as the Rake, but the most dangerous part about them is the number of them. They can be stunned, they are slow chasers like Slowerno. As of the 1.7.0 update this boss and it's counterparts will be alerted when a player is being chased, it's counterparts also now have torso varients. Apart from that they can now perform a death cam kill on a player if their health is below 40hp. The Torso varients almost as alike as their regular counterparts, the only difference is they can't perform death cam kills. As of a recent update Zombine has been paired with them.
