Gameplay[]
"Hyperioids move and turn very slowly, and this weapon only fires from the direct front of it, so as long as you don't get in front of it, you'll do just fine." ― EVula Survival Guide
These placid aliens are inoffensive whenever possible, but those who attack them discover just how powerful a Solar Lance can be. In effect, a Solar Lance is a Thunderhead Lance with twice the range. This phenomenon is immortalized in the old tavern joke:
Q: What are an Auroran warrior's last words?
A: "Hey, what do you think would happen if I shot one of them glowing things?"

"The Solar Lance is the defensive mechanism of the Hyperioids. A Hyperioid can generate a significant charge by rotating its pods around its body at a high rate of speed. The Solar Lance uses this charge to propel photons out of the Hyperioid's feeding orifice. The resulting beam weapon is very dangerous; contact should be avoided at all costs."
A Solar Lance is the name given to the organic photon beam defense of the Hyperioid.
