Amalgam

Amalgams refers to those that have cybernetically hybridized with tech and biology.
In most cases, this is done to enhance the chosen host, giving them the strengths of a Sentient and increasing their own, while removing the weaknesses of both. In rare cases, amalgamization can also be performed to heal fatal and grievous wounds.
==Lore & History==
===Chimera Prologue===
After Ballas was stabbed in the abdomen by , he was immediately rescued by Natah. He was then taken aboard the Sentient mothership, where he was converted into an Amalgam to save his life.
As an Amalgam, Ballas still remains relatively normal, with only his lower half displaying severe disfiguration. His previous human legs have been converted into Sentient digits, while the vestiges of calves and quads can be seen dangling from his legs. Additionally, a large open hole has formed in his abdomen, exposing his ribcage and and causing some of his intestines lay exposed. Despite all this, the Amalgam Ballas remained in relatively good health.
===The Wolf of Saturn Six===
The Wolf of Saturn Six and his Fugitives are assassins who were introduced in Nightwave: Series 1 – The Wolf of Saturn Six. The Wolf, formerly a rogue criminal who escaped from the Saturn Six Max-Pen, started to actively pursue the Tenno with his pack.
As shown in the fourth diorama, the Wolf and his pack were lured into a trap by Alad V, who injected them with "Sentient juices" turning them into a much more powerful and fearsome opponent. However, the fifth diorama shows the Wolf breaking free from Alad V's clutches.
As shown in voicelines during Break Narmer missions, the Wolf's body has now rejected his Amalgam enhancements, and he now suffers from severe chemical hyper-saturation.
===Alad V's Partnership===
Alad V returned to work for the back on Jupiter, although due to the failure of the Zanuka Project and the Mutalist Incursion incident, along with Nef Anyo's Orb Vallis terraforming project winning the favor of the Corpus Chairman, Frohd Bek, Alad's reputation has since severely diminished. He was approached by an old acquaintance, Regus, who offered him never-before-seen Old War tech. Alad immediately jumped the chance and began investing, quickly signing a contract that Regus immediately agreed to, despite Alad's attempts at filling it with manipulating loopholes. However, he soon came to realize something was very wrong when Regus flashed him with an inhuman smile.
Alad realized too late that the Regus that approached him was actually a Sentient Mimic; to his horror, he had entered an unwitting partnership with the enemy. Alad's attempts to defy submission instantly met in failure; he had no choice but to comply with the Amalgam project and create soldiers for the Sentients, or the Ropalolyst would raze his gas city and his Corpus rivals would execute him for treason.
The Amalgam program turned out to be a success. As per agreements, the identities of his partners would be kept confidential, instating a strict no-fly zone on their craft. All while Alad V told to himself, "Life is Profit."
In addition to creating the Amalgams, Alad V also works to receive combat data against the Warframes and sends it over to his Partners. However, his boasting about his "exciting new product line" is merely a facade, even encouraging and expressing gratitude to the Tenno when they fight the Ropalolyst.
==Corpus Amalgams==
Corpus Amalgams spawn exclusively on the Corpus Gas City tileset, with Alad V announcing their presence. Up to three of the Amalgams shown can spawn:
<tabber>
|-|Heqet=
|-|Arca Heqet=
|-|Kucumatz=
|-|Arca Kucumatz=
|-|Machinist=
|-|Cinder Machinist=
|-|MOA=
|-|Phase MOA=
|-|Osprey=
|-|Satyr=
|-|Swarm Satyr=
</tabber>
==Demolyst==
Demolysts are a special variant of Amalgams that only appear in the Disruption game mode on Ganymede, Jupiter. They are essentially a type of Demolisher that spawns once a conduit objective has been triggered, rushing in to destroy it. Demolysts emit a loud sound and, once close enough, are given a red marker. They will immediately beeline for any active conduit and will begin to self-destruct once they've reached one, destroying the conduit if not killed in time.
A Demolyst will pulse out a red aura every 5 seconds with a radius of 6.5 meters, immediately dispelling and disabling all Warframe abilities within range and on itself, similar to a Nullifier Crewman's bubble.

==Notes==
*Unlike Sentient fighters, Amalgams have Eximus variants.
*Amalgam shields will not regenerate after being completely removed.
*Amalgams do not spawn on Themisto, Jupiter, Alad V's and Zanuka's Assassination node, due to the Amalgam Project being the successor to the Zanuka Project. They do however, appear as normal in Secret Labs that spawn in the same mission.
*Amalgam Alkonosts are completely immune to Status Effects and certain Warframe abilities.
==Trivia==
*An amalgam is generally described as a mixture or blend of multiple things, and is derived from Amalgamation, which is the process of combining or uniting multiple entities into one form. 
**In chemistry, an Amalgam typically refers to an alloy composed of Mercury and another metal; all Amalgams encountered in WARFRAME are hybrids of Sentients and another faction.
*Chronologically, the first Amalgam introduced was Ballas during the events of Chimera Prologue, transformed into an Orokin-Sentient hybrid. The next set of Amalgams, and where the term first originated, came into play during Nightwave Series 1 where the Grineer Saturn Six Fugitives and Wolf of Saturn Six were transformed into "Amalgam Dogs" by Alad V.
*The and , as well as the Orb Mother combat platforms, are Corpus made weapons integrated with Sentient technology. However, these are not considered Amalgams, as they were created under Nef Anyo rather than Alad V.
*Humanoid Amalgam can be considered cyborgs. For example: Amalgam Alkonosts, Amalgam Heqets, Amalgam Machinists, the Wolf of Saturn Six, and the Saturn Six Fugitives have all been altered with cybernetic and Sentient technology, while still retaining their humanoid form and organic matter.
