Slyrens are little slugs but they can fly rings around opponents while doing an ear splitting scream!
- A famous Slyren is Dozer, who belongs to Eli Shane.
- The ghouled version of a Slyren is called Sirench, but has yet to appear in the show.
Attacks[]
- Protoform Abilities - Perimeter alarm, can mimic sounds.
- Whistleer - Flies rings around opponent, create a sustained, ear-splitting scream.
- Sleepytime - Strange trilling call puts opponent to sleep.
- Blammerang - High-speed sonic boom blast.
- HyperSonic - Creates a high pitched frequency that causes temporary deafness in an opponent.
Fusion Shot[]
- Hyperflash - "Narwhaddle" + "Slyren" - TBD. It hasn't officially appeared on the show yet.
Analysis[]
All of a Slyren's attacks are sound-based, and therefore they can hit lots of targets at once. Although a Slyren can win you duels just by landing its Sleepytime attack (which is also useful against ghoul slugs), the former is pretty hard to land. Its Whistleer attack can be used to greatly handicap an opponent, Blammerang is perfect to blow up stuff and hit slugs while avoiding to get hit and HyperSonic makes teamwork incredibly difficult for the opponent and a little easier for you. Their major weakness is that its voice does not affect slugs with the exception of ghouls, so its best to use it in tandem with another slug.
As their attacks are sound-based, they are useful for shattering Frostcrawler and Geoshard constructs, as well as other similar materials such as glass. Their use of sound can also act as a signaling substitute for a Phosphoro should certain situations limit the slinger from using the aforementioned slug,
