The Rumbler's shoulder-mounted RPG cannon looks like a Grenade Launcher with the back end sawed off. It wears an armored diving suit with multiple buckles latching the shoulder-mounted Grenade Launcher in place.

The helmet of the Rumbler has six portholes, two in front (one slightly larger than the other) and four on the sides. The Rumbler is noted to be somewhat thinner in appearance than the Bouncer, and it resembles the Rosie, having less external armor and a more humanoid appearance. The peculiar chemistry of this hybrid's brain tissue indicates a latent psionic predisposition.A hostile Rumbler in battle with the player. Recommendation: This creature is extremely dangerous, being, in effect, a heavily-muscled host designed to protect a highly-evolved yet unconnected brain.

It appears that this creature is an evolutionary stage between an earlier-stage human-annelid hybrid, and a third, unknown form. All muscular activity is controlled locally by alien cells designed for this purpose. Brain tissue is extremely dense, which would normally indicate a creature of extreme cognitive ability, but the brain-stem has atrophied to a useless stub, and there is no analog to a human spinal column. Muscle tissue density has increased twenty-fold, and adrenaline production has increased proportionally. Discernable human elements are minimal, above the DNA level. Its annelid tissue is particularly vulnerable to incendiary devices.Īnalysis: This organism is further evolution of the first-stage annelid hybrid. All damage you deal to Rumblers will be increased by 25%. Summary: You've learned how to best target the Rumbler for maximal damage. Rumbler Organ is a researchable item in System Shock 2.
