Gorehulk
A monstrous creature that resembles a massive, painfully swollen human with randomly reconfigured body parts. Near its top is a stretched face that watches its victim with dead eyes.
Hundreds of sharp keratin spines protrude from the gorehulk's skin. It can launch these spines to spear its victims at a distance. However, its awkward fleshy body is less effective at causing harm up close.
It's hard to know whether this is a human that was horribly distorted by the influence of the void or a poor imitation of humanity created from scratch by some evil intelligence.

Acquisition/ Occurrence
Summary
They are very easy to bring down as they have little armor, no resistance to pain and are extremely weak in close combat. [Verify]
Yield
They yield 3 bioferrite and 400W per day.
Analysis
While not especially dangerous in small groups, the Gorehulk is particularly adept at breaking out of containment for its level, and as such should receive the best storage possible that a beginning player can provide. Their great bulk combined with no particular resistance to pain makes them easy to capture. With a little investment into proper facilities they can be a great source of bioferrite.
For comparisons sake, sightstealers yield 1.6 and are arguably more dangerous.
In large ammouts they can get extremely dangerous when fought in an open area as their primary attack is a range attack. This can lead to situations where you get kited by them while you are not beeing able to use your weapons propperly.
While not in sight they will walk to you. Therefor a good way to deal with them is to fight in chokepoints around corners to not let them range attack you and get them one by one.
Despite not beeing an animal, the manhunter pulse works on them like an AE Berserk (psycast) this can be extremely useful to deal with them as they will fight each other and almost completely ignore your combatants while you can shoot them at will.
