Mutant Marauder

"We'll fight for you!"

- Mutant

Mutant Marauders are powerful members of the Forgotten, whose task is the protection of mutant settlements from any hostiles, regardless of their affiliation. While most of them are extremely aggressive to those not affiliated with them, some are known to strike down deals with outside parties, most often Nod or GDI trading supplies for their services.

Background
A Marauder is a towering human extensively mutated by Tiberium. His body is covered in scars and hardened to the point of it being comparable with hard leather. His eyes are normally glowing green and the musculature is developed beyond regular human limits. Their strength allows them to employ miniguns with ease, fed from a back-mounted ammunition pack. They are also immune to Tiberium and can hide and heal in Tiberium (as can all mutants).

Game unit
Marauders are very effective against infantry, and can even fire at aircraft units. However, they cannot gain veteran ranks as other units. This may be because in Tiberium Wars, units from the three factions have unique symbols to mark veteran ranks, but Mutant Marauders don't have any. Still, when Mutant Marauders pick up a crate with "veteran level up" items inside, their health bars turn bright orange, means they do get extra health like other veteran units.

Behind the scenes
They have the voice of Yuri's anti-tank unit, Brute.
