Dark Protogen

Dark Protogens were the event counterpart of Protogens. Like its counterpart, they emit the same sounds when hit or killed, but their start up sounds are somewhat different and more sinister.
They are black-furred half-robotic anthropomorphic creatures that wear a black, grey and red visor on their heads, that of which has the Laminax logo on the sides. Additionally, they have dark grey neck fluff and light grey ear tufts. On its head, there is a visor with red "nanites" creating the illusion of facial expressions. Unlike the normal Protogen's nanites, these are individually modeled.
Dark Protogen has been removed as of the V3.1 Revamp Update.
==Abilities==
===Increased Health (Passive)===
Dark Protogens have an increased health of 115 HP.
===Self-Destruct===
Like normal Protogens, if their health is below 50%, they gain a Self Destruct function. Upon activation, they emit a beeping sound until they eventually explode, dealing 60 HP damage to all survivors in the near vicinity. If a survivor's HP is low enough, the explosion will turn them into Ghost Fox.
While self destruct is happening, their health will be set to a certain HP and they will gain more resistance to damage. Their walk speed will also be set to 20, even while grabbing.
There is a major bug in the game that causes this ability to not damage anyone under 60 HP, meaning it is impossible to kill anyone with it.

===Water Damage===
Dark Protogens will lose 13.5 HP every 1.5 seconds of being inside water due to electrocution.

===Overcharging===
If a Dark Protogen is hit by a Taser, they will play a short charging sound effect before exploding, dealing damage to, knocking back and ragdolling anybody nearby, affecting both humans and Gootraxians alike. While the damage that is dealt scales off proximity to the Dark Protogen, anyone in its blast radius will be stunned.
==Acquirement==
Dark Protogen used to be acquired by losing all of your health to a Dark Protogen puddle that replaces standard Protogen puddles during Power Outages and Blackouts or by being infected by another Dark Protogen Gootraxian.
