Migrant

The Migrant is a miniboss in Marrow.

Description
The Migrant spawns in two places within the Laboratories and must be killed in order to progress the game. The Migrant possesses two attacks. For the first, it will stomp the ground, causing a tendril to attack the player from below. For the second, the orb atop its body will detach and fly into the sky, firing two projectiles at the player before disappearing. After this second attack its body will disappear and appear somewhere else.

To kill the Migrant, it is best to continually jump and attack its head, making sure to stay in the air in order to dodge its tendrils.

Lore
"It has been weeks now... or is it months past since that bulbous, beautiful sphere had been cracked, and that low, maddening hum still wafts out from the walls and hollow ground beneath. My workers, the simple but observant men from Windheim could sense a presence, a mind, inside that darkened and dormant orb found beneath the Manor. Something was hiding inside, like a turtle flees to the inside of its shell. After it was cracked, but before it could be shattered, a face emerged, or so I was told. I did not see it, I seem rarely so lucky to witness such things, but others have said the face seemed to mimic the face of a man. The others surmise it was pleading to us, pleading for its life, I read it differently. I believe it was a warning to its kin below of the form of its captors. That is why it needed to be shattered, and soon we will have what's needed to harness that wretched hum."(c)official lore
