Evolved Type?: New species? Rumored to have evolved before the Goliath's, and have somehow evaded detection. If new, it means Evolved are evolving new species at an alarming rate.

Date of Discovery: Unknown. Rumor's of it's existence have been around for years, but only have recently been confirmed.

Height by tier: Tier one: Unknown, Tier two: Unknown, Tier three: six meters.

Appearance: Three legs that support a pillar of flesh. Arms are long and lanky. The creature has pods on it's back, with no visible ears or nose. The creature has no lower jaw on it's mouth, with it dissenting all the way to the bottom of it's body. Eleven red eyes are positioned over the mouth. Note: This physical description appeals to Tier three only, due to no tier one's or two's being spotted.

Abilities: Unknown. Does not seem to be build for direct engagement. Warning: Do not approach without cation or backup. Update: The Host has the capacity to control creature's that pull themselves out of the pods on it's back. This makes the creature every dangerous, due to the fact that these parasite like beings could easily bring down a human alone.

Battle Style: Unknown. It isn't built around stealth, like Gorgons or Wraiths, but doesn't have muscle of Goliaths or Behemoths. Another long ranged attacker, like Krakens, perhaps? Warning: Updated battle style confirms that Host's use parasitical creatures out of it's own body to attack. These range from flying wasp like parasites to ground bound bombers that charge at the nearest target, before detonating themselves with force comparable to that of a hand grenade. Multiple detonations have been rumored to bring down tanks.

Movement: It can control the wasp like parasites to attach themselves to it's body, allowing it to fly. Having them attack or shooting them off prevents its flight.

Danger rating: A. Due to The Host's cunning intellect and it's ability to create life-forms on it's own, The Host has an A danger ranking, pushing the upper power scale of the Evolved well beyond it's believed potential.

Noteable information: Only Tier Three Host's have ever been seen. It is unknown whether it is one of a kind, or that the lower stages have been mistaken for something else.

Personality Traits (Species): Due to the rarity of The Host itself, a being believed to be a singular identity, it is impossible to determine what common personality traits it or they may posses.

Active threat level: Unpredictable. The Host only fight's even provoked or cornered. However, when it does, fight, there are no survivors.

Versatility: The Host may not be adaptable itself, but it's parasites are. It has control over basic their basic instincts and seems to modify and create them itself, all at a rapid rate.

Intellect: Eight

Armor: Unknown

Defenses: Unknown

Speculation: The Host has been believed to be the first species of the Evolved, being rumored to exist for almost a decade before Goliath's had begun popping up. However, the creature was confirmed to exists after the appearance of Gorgon's, nearly ten years after the first Goliath's. This twenty year timeskip makes many believe (without proof), that sense The Host can create parasites with relative ease, that it can create larger life forms over a much larger period in time. If this theory is true, it means The Host is responsible for the sudden jump-start of human that has resulted in the Evolved species as a whole. If so, The Host is in a sense is trying to replace mankind with newer and more powerful versions of itself, but to what end? What disaster could be worse than the damage and death this offshoot of humanity has inadvertently caused?

Fact's: Reclusive and alone, The Host seems to be an army of one, one that can create many. It seems to have no connection to the other Evolved, and outside of its two arms and cunning, has no human features. How and why it exists in unknown, and if it is an Evolved, it is unknown where it fits inside their combat structure. However, The Host is believed to rival, if not surpass, the destructive power of the Tier Three Gorgon that had leveled a city to the ground. Furthermore, it is unknown that if The Host is one singular creature, or like the rest of the Evolved, there are several Hosts.
