The zenith of the body horror aesthetic, the Amalgam is a form of fleshy deviancy that until now has defied explanation. Roughly over eight feet in height, and retaining a general humanoid mass, this appears – to put this politely – to be the combined DNA of multiple individuals. It has multiple appendages, including heads, all growing from seemingly random locations.

There are limbs in places there shouldn’t be.

Nothing about this heresy of nature is quite right.

Amalgams appear to be violent masses of flesh and sinew, emitting bellows from multiple heads. Up to ten arms and five legs have been counted, and they seem to regenerate limbs previously shot off. They mainly try to absorb you (or other zombies) by stretching a cluster of limbs into a tendril to pull the victim into a maw-like chest cavity.

Though not witnessed, it is theorized that should an Amalgam be killed, it will spontaneously lose cohesion, exploding into sprays of blood, entrails and innards.
