these were created sometime after sigma was resurected, in need of a army to exact his revenge against the humans and his Lhi'aan kin, he created his own Living Entity or Lhi'aan. The LE-8 is a design based on his own, this is a combination of synthetic DNA splicing and high tech mechanical prostetic technology to form a new version. The LE-8 is equiped with advanced optical sensory, has rather remarkable hearing, has multifunctional claws for any sort of use needed. They can turn 360 degrees like a rotating blade which can be used for cutting, drilling, slicing etc. They have grappling hook tech and they can also be used as a projectile weapon, the do have biohacking tech so they can be fairly dangerous. They can eat to add to their power supply as well as absorb energy around them, solar, wind, hydro, static electricity. They have predatory programing to allow them the best advantages in bringing down a target, they can work in groups as well as alone. They can disable their glowing tech to hide well in the dark, granted there is no light around. This hybrid is more efficient than either group and serves sigma's army well as they will continue to fulfil two objectives, biohack non hostiles and kill hostiles without delay, and two, find and destroy the primary terminal of the generation one Lhi'aans.
