Out of all the types of enemies present in this game none posses quite the level of uselessness as the quiet psion. In public events there a punching bag if selected and in missions their assistance in battle is almost laughable. Unlike their larger brethren who willingly jump into danger, the psion ducks and runs, hesitant to stay in an open area for to long. Given all these differences isn't it somewhat odd that these small fighter posses any genetic alignment to the hulking masses of bullets that they are so often paired up with? Cabal as a species are viewed as the most lacking intellectually out of all the species, but what if that isn't the case at all? As we've seen, though headstrong and noticeably dim, the cabal probably posses the largest militarized army out of all the enemies the traveler faces. So it stands to reason, how is it all possible? What gave the cabal so much insight and knowledge to become the hulking mass of power they are today. I believe the answer lies with the small psion. You see contrary to the boring un interesting species the cabal are presented as, I believe the cabal are the most unique race of aliens in the game. The reason? Their race is divided into TWO separate species. If we were to characterize the two as well as their interactions and roles to one another, we would label the large cabal (we will refer to them as cabal A for now) as the muscle. These cabal are for fighting and nothing more, thye are the armies the generals and the captains. The smaller cabal (cabal B) however would be identified as the brain. This separate species of cabal evolved over time not through muscle but through intellect. I believe that the reason the cabal are where they are today lies with the knowledge given to them through the psion species of cabal. In short the large cabal are the armies but the smaller cabal are the lords, commanding their large brethren and telling them what to do and when. In conclusion, I believe that when the cabal finally have their turn to have a story and a raid we may realize that it's not the biggest enemy we should be fighting but the smallest....
Thanks for reading guys! Let me know what you think!
