Howell protects Lexine from hordes of necromorphs, including a brute. As Gabe and Warren discover Maintenance Shuttle 23 in Shuttle Bay 47, they head to the control room to prep a shuttle for launch. There they discover a lone anxious security officer who has locked himself inside. Gabe and Warren are then ambushed by necromorphs; the security watches on as the duo fends off the necormorphs. An exploder suddenly drops right behind him from the vent and smashes him with its explosive sac. The blast kills the security instantly, but allows Gabe and Warren to gain entry to the control room, although at the same time, badly damages the computers.

Warren betrays Gabe in the end of chapter eight by shooting him and revealing his mission to Gabe, before getting killed by a leaper. Nathan and Lexine discover the wounded Gabe, who tells them what happened. He also tells them the ADS cannon must be shut off before they can escape. Gabe is unable to guide Nathan due to relapsing consciousness from his wound.

Gabe recovers at the start of chapter ten. When Nathan begins to move through the vents, he will hear a radio transmission of a woman singing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star , initially thinking Lexine was calling him. Nathan tries to get a response from the singer but only hears the woman keep singing. Additionally, Isaac Clark will also hear the song play on a loop in chapter ten of Dead Space when he enters the Crew Deck.

In the end of chapter nine, Nathan is forced to amputate his right arm after it was pinned by a spike launched from the Spider. Gabe and Lexine tried to contact Nathan but received no answers from him. Both of them held off waves of necromorphs in order to wait for him as they prep the shuttle for launch. Nathan then suddenly appears, fending off necromorphs with a contact beam with one arm.

Gabe and Lexine are surprised to see him alive and shocked that he lost an arm. Nathan co-pilots the shuttle with Lexine and all three escape the Ishimura. Nathan plots a course for the Sprawl and the group celebrates their victory over the necromorph, but this is cut short by the arrival of the USG Kellion, whom Lexine desperately tries to warn to stay away from the Ishimura but to no avail.

Nathan would ultimately succumb to his wound and transforms into a slasher. He attacks Lexine but ends up being killed by her. Lexine desperately tries to warn them but is unable to communicate with them. The garbled radio transmission heard in the beginning of Dead Space is speculated to be Lexine trying to warn them but unable to get the message through due to the debris field or faulty communication.

This survivor is encountered when Isaac first enters the room where he obtains his first weapon. Upon entering, Isaac can hear the survivor sobbing with fright behind a locked door on the other side of the room.

He does not hear Isaac until he steps up on the platform where the Plasma Cutter is. Once the survivor hears Isaac, he immediately stops crying and begs him to open the door for him, saying he doesn't have a key, and can't figure out how to hack the door. After Isaac grabs the Plasma Cutter, the survivor becomes more panicked, saying he can hear creatures through the vents coming for him. Once the door is unlocked, he flies into a full-blown panic, saying he can hear creatures everywhere, and he still can't unlock it from his side.

When Isaac finally opens the door for the survivor, he is found being mauled to death by a Slasher. Although Isaac can dispatch the Slasher very quickly, the survivor will still die as his death is predetermined. Note this is the only time you will see a Slasher using the hands dangling from its sides to do something in game it is holding the man down with them. It's possible that this crewman is the Tram-engineer Benson as the voice of both are identical and you'll find the first audio log from him in the corridor forward.

When Isaac steps off the tram in Chapter 2: Intensive Care , in the corner there is a woman wearing a bloodstained blindfold. She is stroking her friend "McCoy" and trying to comfort him, saying help has arrived. In reality, she is stroking a dismembered torso, but due to blindness, and more likely mental instability, she hasn't realized this. She says she knew Isaac would come, "just like you said", and that she "saved something for you". She reaches behind the torso, turning it over, revealing maggots eating away at it.

Beleaguered, she fumbles, and barely manages to drop the kinesis module that was what she 'saved' for the player in front of Isaac.

She asks if she can go now, and with the last of her breath, says that McCoy wants to take her to "the shuttle". She then succumbs to her wounds. After Isaac returns to the tram station later on in the chapter, both the torso and the woman are gone, probably hinting that they were turned into Necromorphs. While walking down the hallway to the Bioprosthetics Lab, a worker rushes out from behind a window, begging Isaac to let him out.

A Lurker runs out from around the corner, chasing him. Behind him it fires a quill into the hand he was pounding the window with, destroying it and pinning him to the wall. The Lurker fires another quill into his back as he painfully tries to free himself. Thinking that would be enough to kill him, the young Necromorph begins to scale the wall, leaving the man to scream in agony. Realizing he is still alive, it turns around and fires all 3 of its quills into the worker's head, decapitating him and splattering the remains of his head all over the window Isaac is looking through.

There is no possible way to save him, as the door that leads to the lab is on a "Standby" mode until he is brutally killed.

While walking down the Imaging Diagnostics hallway, a heavy banging sound is heard. When Isaac turns the corner, he can see that the source of the sound is a man smashing his head repeatedly against the wall, with blood spattering out from each hit. He is also heavily mutilated, lacking any flesh on the front of his torso, and has no organs present in his abdomen.

His ribs are clearly visible, he is missing sections of flesh and skin all over his body, and is drenched in his own blood as though he had endured a Necromorph attack. He makes no reaction to Isaac's presence, and Isaac will refuse shooting him directly, but is possible arching a secondary shot from the force gun to land on his head or deploying a timed bomb right next to him with the line gun, none of these actions however can damage nor stop him. When Isaac goes near the man, he rears his head back and violently brings it into the wall a final time, his skull cracking as he slides down to the ground, dead.

The severity of his wounds, which would not be survivable for any significant length of time, suggest that this man may be a hallucinations on the part of Clarke. By this time in the story, however, he has not experienced any major visual illusions; only whispers of his name have appeared. The man's corpse remains in the level as opposed to despawning , however, leading to speculation on his status.

In one room in Imaging Diagnostics, there is an officer behind the table who is violently choking. A yellowish liquid is foaming out of his mouth. He "dies" after choking for a few seconds. A back story log found after beating the game details the transformation of a corpse into an Infector , and the very first symptom is violently choking up a yellowish liquid; implying that the choking man is actually a corpse in the first stage of becoming an Infector.

Upon returning to this room on the return trip in the Chapter, the man's body will have disappeared, implying that he became an Infector. If the player stomps him, he will be dismembered, but will continue to choke.

When entering a surgery room, there will be a female officer in a glass surgery box, who appears to be operating on a patient. When Isaac gets closer, it is clear that she is not operating on the man, but is instead mindlessly sawing into him, laughing hysterically. She looks back at Isaac, then back to the "patient", who finally dies from his injuries.

She then looks back at Isaac again, and brings the saw up to her neck and slices her throat with it. She drops to the floor, gurgling, before finally dying of blood loss. The two are most likely not a hallucination, because they are still present in the glass room when Isaac returns in a later chapter. Sometimes, before dying, the man will moan "Please Is possible to bounce a secondary shot from the force gun in the ceiling and into the table she's operating but this causes them no damage and will only die by her own hand.

Notably, this scene was featured in two official screenshots. Apparently, this is the only survivor encounter to be featured in two official screenshots. Throughout the entirety of Chapter 3, human-like screams can be heard alongside the ambiance of the level.

It's possible these are heard from remaining survivors, as the Engineering Deck was one of the last decks to hold out. Whether these screams originate from survivors, Necromorphs, or even Isaac's dementia, is all left up to speculation. Specifically, it seems that Isaac can hear more clearly in the Fuel Storage , a large dark area with numerous Necromorphs around. It could be that a group of survivors was trying to hide in the shadows, being gradually found and taken out one by one. Another possibility is that it is a sole injured crew member moving around continuously, trying to avoid the creatures.

After passing through the other side of the decontamination chamber on the way to the centrifuge, dulled low-pass screams and thuds gunshots can be heard. Soon after, there is silence. It is implied there was someone who managed to survive and was fighting off Necromorphs, only to die soon after. Owing to the fact that the Drag Tentacle is introduced moments later - its signature groan is heard for the first time - and a loud crash coincides with fresh limbs nearby, it is likely that the survivor was "taken" by the Drag Tentacle moments prior to Isaac's arrival, which is most likely why it did not lunge at him initially.

This theory is emphasized by the fact that Isaac finds a dismembered corpse with ammunition nearby, in the corridor where the Tentacle attacks, with a blood trail leading to the hole on the wall.

There is only one survivor directly encountered in Chapter 3, although the encounter is brief. On the 2nd level of the engine control decks, in a storage room adjacent to one of the lift shafts, lies an engineer in a heavily beaten state. Beforehand, the player will witness a Leaper hastily crawl into the room with the engineer, but disappears.

He rests underneath a vent on the wall and doesn't move until approached. He then lunges forward, reaching out to Isaac before suddenly collapsing, dead. Turning around lets the player witness a Slasher run by the room, indicating that maybe the engineer was warning Isaac before dying. A group of Swarmers is seen exiting the horrifying room immediately prior, and are also found in a supply box a floor below, insinuating his cause of death.

Once the main lift in the Bridge room nears its destination at the lower level, the loud, horrified scream of a woman echoes down the shaft. The scream ends moments after Isaac reaches the bottom floor.

Upon entry to the level, there are no signs of human life, and no murdered female in sight. Where the scream originated from is unknown. A possibility is that a Necromorph managed to kill the unsuspecting woman, but it does not seem likely, as there is no roar to be heard as the woman is screaming and no female bodies around.

Another theory is that a bridge officer was hiding inside of the elevator shaft and was crushed when Isaac activated the elevator; this would explain why the scream seems to be so close. After going up the main lift to level 3 the path to the Comms Array there is a man through a doorway who, briefly, tells Isaac to "make us whole again" before walking off as the door closes. It is unknown where he went, as there is only a lonely Pregnant calmly walking down the corridor.

Considering the increasing number of hallucinations Isaac is already having at this point of the game, the man was most likely a hallucination as well. It is interesting to note that the man resembles a bloody Chen , he wears the same suit given to USG Kellion crew members Hammond and Johnston. It is quite possible that Isaac was hallucinated the Pregnant in the form of either Chen or a Bridge crewman.

Also of note, he is a NPC that Isaac can shoot, although it has no effect. The insane science officer, [1] Doctor Challus Mercer is first encountered in this chapter, revealed to be hiding on the medical decks in apparently safe areas.

Once Isaac escapes back to the security station and enters E. After Isaac acquires the recombinant tissue sample from his office, the insane doctor interrupts his video call with Kendra before venting all oxygen in the wing into space.

After the oxygen is restored, he is encountered in the Cryogenics Treatment chamber, again behind a glass pane. Mercer makes a brief speech about his plan to unleash the Necromorphs on Earth before releasing his regenerating creation and walking off. Before going into Dr. Mercer's office, Isaac can see a woman standing at the end of the hallway next to a surgical bed to the right. She dies when Dr.

Challus Mercer vents the air throughout the deck into space; while Isaac does not see her die, he can verify that her body is there, if he has the luxury to waste oxygen for that purpose. A very interesting detail that many players do not notice is that the dead body on the ground looks identical to her, right down to the injuries on the face, though this may be an error in NPC formatting and the same skin was used for both.

There is a possibility she may be a hallucination due to the fact that her RIG health indicator is empty, which means she is actually dead; and moreover, it is strange that Isaac didn't encounter her during his first visit of the infirmary, in chapter 2.

However, when Dr. Mercer disables life support systems in the Medical Deck, the woman dies and her body is left lying next to the other corpse which means that she was indeed a real person, and managed somehow to survive until there.

When Isaac reaches the far end of the rig room and activates the elevator, he will begin to hear painful moans from a nearby survivor. When the elevator reaches Isaac's level, the door opens to reveal a dying miner lying on the ground, his left arm severed.

He groans and reaches out to Isaac for help before collapsing, dead. Immediately after activating the elevator, his arm precipitously falls from a vent above, followed quickly by an onslaught of Slashers - the likely cause of his demise. Nicole can't reach him from where she is, but she helps him by opening the locked door to the room where the beacon is.

Isaac has to defend her against an onslaught of Necromorphs that show up while she is opening the door. She walks away after unlocking the door declaring her love for Isaac and assuring him that everything will end soon. As it turns out later in the game, the whole sequence was a hallucination. It is quite possible that the door was unlocked the whole time and some or all of the Necromorphs attacking were illusions as well. It's unknown if either the Marker's signal jammed the communications temporarily or if Isaac himself blocked Kendra from contacting him.

After entering the passage guarded by the two Guardians, a survivor will crawl around the corner, groaning in his death throes, and subsequently die as the game's first whole Divider comes around the corner as well.

Though Isaac can shoot and dismember the survivor, he will still act out his programmed death scene. If the player chooses to look close enough the survivor will strongly resemble the vanishing man as seen in Chapter 4. A Marine can be seen pinned to the ceiling by one of the malfunctioning gravity panels, moaning in obvious pain how he managed to survive without getting shredded to pieces by the panel is unclear.

Nothing can be done to help him - neither rescue nor a mercy kill from Isaac is possible, though if the player managed to keep an exploding limb from one of the Exploders in the room previous, it can be used to remove all the man's limbs which in a terrifying lack of programming, doesn't result in a ceasing of the man's moaning.

If this is done and the player leaves and then returns to the Marine's room, his moan will no longer be heard, as he himself will no longer be present, also due to a lack of programming. His ultimate fate is unknown, although the fact that he was trapped and heavily injured when the ship later explodes certainly suggests KIA status.

If the player looks closely, the marine still has full health. After leaving the room with the shooting range on the USM Valor , Isaac discovers a space marine , sitting on the ground and holding up his severed leg.

He grunts in pain a few times, and then falls backwards, dead. This marine is found outside of an operating room with a malfunctioning medical laser suggesting that he lost his leg inadvertently during his escape from the Necromorphs, but only made it to the hall before Isaac finds him.

Another Marine can be seen running away from Isaac as he enters a room connected to where the singularity core is found. The door closes and locks as he leaves. It is never explicitly shown what happens to him, but the fact that he is never shown again in the game implies that he was killed; either by a Necromorph or when the USM Valor exploded. When Isaac follows his path after retrieving the singularity core, a lone dead marine can be seen by an elevator with a blown power unit.

Seeing as Isaac nearly avoided injury when one exploded near him before Dr. Kyne's transmission , it is likely the same marine - lacking a Kinesis module - was killed when the power unit was ejected, or was unable to escape a pursuer.

Jacob Temple, formerly an engineer aboard the "Ishimura," left a series of audio logs detailing the mechanics and failures of systems on the ship and his attempts to repair them and escape the crisis. Eventually, practicality forced him to abandon this objective, and he instead went out to find Elizabeth Cross, his partner.

Their reunion is short-lived— both of them are murdered by the madman Mercer, their skulls punctured to ease the inevitable work of the Infector. Clarke is forced to witness Temple's death, though he can in no way intervene. Upon entry to the back room to Sleep Block C, Isaac discovers a room full of dead Unitology worshippers, who committed suicide under the orders of Dr. Mercer, their impaled heads wrapped up in bandages. One surprisingly clean and unhurt woman remains alive in the room, but upon Isaac's entry, she laughs hysterically, and promptly blows her head off with a P-Sec Pistol.

The woman is the only one in the room to die from a gunshot; the others were impaled in a similar fashion to Jacob Temple and Elizabeth Cross. Isaac can reach her well before she commits suicide, however, he will not try to interfere. It's also impossible to get the P-Sec Pistol and use it as a weapon, even through he could. The ship's chief science officer is encountered behind a secure glass pane in the sleep block security station. He informs Isaac of the importance of returning the Marker to its pedestal on the planet and aids Isaac in locating the Nav Cards needed for the executive shuttle.

He will not leave the security station however and if Isaac attempts to visit him before he has located the Nav Cards, Kyne starts to ramble believing Isaac to be his wife. Eventually Kyne leaves to pilot the shuttle into the hangar deck. He is not seen or heard from again for a brief time until Isaac kills The Hunter with the Executive Shuttle's engine test, after which Mercer contacts him and invites Isaac to join him as he gazes at the face of God before submitting himself to an Infector.

Isaac later finds Mercer's headless, mutilated remains along with the Infector just a few rooms away, which will turn into a headless Enhanced Slasher should the transformation be allowed to complete. After obtaining the escape ship, Dr. Kyne rushes out to greet Isaac, telling him that they must escape immediately. Before either of them are able to board the ship, however, Kyne is shot in the chest by Kendra Daniels , who was hidden on board the ship, before taking off with the Marker.

As Kyne lies dying on the floor, he reaches out and gasps for Amelia to come back to him, before collapsing to the ground dead. Kendra herself is not fully visible in this chapter, but she has apparently snuck aboard the Executive Shuttle sometime after Kyne pilots it to the Flight Deck. Once the Marker is loaded onto the Shuttle, Kendra swiftly shoots and kills Dr.

Kyne in the presence of Isaac before flying the shuttle away, stranding him. She contacts him via RIG Link and thanks him, before revealing that the outbreak on Aegis VII along with the Marker itself was the product of The Sovereign Colonies, and that the Valor was sent to assist her in retrieving the artifact.

Nicole appears again once Kendra betrays Isaac, in a control room blocked by a Guardian. Once Isaac reaches her, she expresses her joy and tells Isaac to "make them whole" before instructing him to recall Kendra's shuttle. She is later seen co-piloting the shuttle with Isaac when the latter descends down onto the colony. Note that these were the same words the vanishing man said to Isaac, indicating that he in fact was a hallucination.

Nicole is seen again at the start of the chapter, instructing Isaac to load the Marker off the shuttle and to guide it to its pedestal using the loader system. She vanishes after he restores power to the loading bay doors. After the Marker is returned, Nicole then makes her final appearance in a bright flash of light as Convergence begins.

She congratulates Isaac on doing a good job and said that "they are now whole" before disappearing for good. Kendra is seen shortly after Nicole vanishes at the Marker pedestal, removing it and loading it back to her ship. She points out Isaac's growing dementia by telling him that Nicole has been dead this whole time and forces him to watch the full transmission. Kendra then leaves, with the heartbroken engineer in hot pursuit.

Once Isaac reaches the landing pad, he witnesses the brutal death of Daniels at the hands of the newly-awakened Hive Mind , smacking and crushing her many times before tossing her against the sharp corner of a building, fully dismembering her. Kendra's death is shown for a split second at the end of the launch trailer for Dead Space.

This probably wasn't considered a spoiler because her face is barely visible and recognizable, being the exact moment she is smashed by the tentacle. He gets stabbed by an Infector once in the chest, and then in the forehead. Isaac repaired it and Ellie piloted the mining drill while Isaac defended her from a horde of Necromorphs. The two drilled their way through an organic mass to the Government Sector where Ellie found a working gunship.

After a moment of contemplation, Isaac activated the gunship from outside, instructing Ellie to leave him and escape. Assuring the heartbroken Ellie that she would be safe, Isaac kept going to the Marker's location. As Nicole's illusion guided Isaac to the Marker, he remained uncertain about his subsequent actions. He was also forced to evade Tiedemann's personal troops by thwarting them by cutting the power to the sector and letting a horde of Necromorphs loose on the security force.

The machine activated the parts of Isaac's brain where the Marker codes along with his lost memories are stored. At this period, the Necromorphs already reached the Marker in numbers and are sufficient to initiate a Convergence Event. Hunted by the near-immortal Ubermorph , Isaac was able to make his way to the Marker where an angry and badly burned Tiedemann awaited him. After Isaac disarmed and killed Tiedemann, Nicole's apparition embraced him in front of the Marker and told him that he had to die as the Marker had to inherit all of its creators to be complete or become annihilated in the Convergence Event taking the whole station with it.

Isaac entered a state of limbo which he mentally managed to break free of the Marker's influence while in reality, he was destroying the Marker. As soon as Isaac regained his sanity, he resigned himself to his death. This was not to pass. Ellie was able to collect him with the gunship that Isaac sent her away in by bursting through the roof of the room that the Marker was kept in.

As she navigated through the collapsing station, Isaac engaged the thrusters on his suit and boosted to the ship moments before the whole sector collapsed. Isaac who was haunted by his past expected all of this to be another cruel hallucination.

Thankfully, all that sat beside him was a grateful Ellie. After escaping from Titan Station, Isaac and Ellie went into hiding. Despite the fact that he freed himself from the Marker's mental grip, Isaac was still suffering from the effects of the Marker.

His mind contained the secrets to create and destroy them. Isaac's inability to move on from the past eventually caused their relationship to deteriorate. Ellie ended their relationship and left Isaac. On his own, Isaac continued to run from his past and was unaware about the escalation of the events between EarthGov and the Unitologists. He was still distraught over losing Ellie. One day without warning, his apartment was infiltrated. Norton explained briefly that they needed him to destroy the Markers.

Isaac initially refused. However, when he was told that Ellie went near Tau Volantis and was currently missing, he agreed to help Norton and Carver. Along the way, Isaac discovered that Danik worked to destroy EarthGov. Separated from Carver and Norton, Isaac was briefly captured by Danik who explained his intentions with the sabotage and murder of the civilians on the colony.

He forced Isaac to watch the destruction of the colony's Marker test lab. Isaac quickly devised a plan to secure the pilots named Mark Rosen and Locke in the Eudora' s escape module. He donned an EVA Suit and spacewalked to the module.

He released it from the outside and the destruction of the Eudora sent it flying headlong into the debris field with he and Carver in close pursuit and Norton hanging on to the module and trying to regain control. The crew managed to survive the hectic ordeal and board one of the abandoned ships called the CMS Roanoke.

Isaac reunited with the crew of the Eudora and Ellie who was romantically involved with Norton. Ellie reported that the Captain of the Roanoke wrote the Marker inscriptions on the wall of her room that may provide further leads.

After investigating, Isaac deciphered the writing and revealed that the Captain discovered a Machine that could control the Markers and was obsessed with the phrase, "Turn it off". Ellie concluded that Tau Volantis was the Marker Homeworld. Norton spoke out urgently in favor of escaping to safety, but Isaac, Ellie and the Marker Ops team opted to continue the mission. They found a spare shuttle aboard the Terra Nova that was capable of descending to the planet's surface.

Norton claimed that Isaac was siding with Ellie because he still had feelings for her. He implored Isaac to abandon the mission for the sake of Ellie's safety by pointing out that there was little hope of success and a significant chance that they would all be killed, but Isaac contended that everyone would die if they gave up.

Norton continued voicing his doubts about the mission. After the shuttle was secured, the team boarded and proceeded to enter the atmosphere of Tau Volantis. During the landing sequence, the shuttle was knocked off course and crashed, killing Locke and Rosen and separating Isaac from the rest of the group. Isaac woke up on the frozen planet suffering from severe hypothermia, but warmed himself from the piles of the burning debris.

Desperately searching through the wreckage of the shuttle, Isaac was greatly relieved to find a video that was recorded by Ellie and the other survivors. Isaac proceeded to follow their trail of flares into a building where he found Buckell lying on the floor.

After a brief talk, Buckell succumbed to his injuries. After some searching, Isaac found a RIG that was designed to withstand the freezing temperatures. Isaac caught up to Ellie and the team. In the meantime, Santos successfully recovered the fragments of the written information on an experiment that would help them.

While attempting to reach the warehouse, they are attacked by Danik and his soldiers. Isaac was separated from the team, but managed to escape from the Unitologists and regroup in the warehouse. In the warehouse was a giant frozen Necromorph known as the Nexus which contained the signals within its body that could be tracked back to the Machine.

While attempting to thaw it and triangulate the signal, Isaac, Norton and Carver are ambushed and captured by Danik's soldiers. Danik revealed that it was Norton that led them to the planet under the pretense that he and the others would be given a shuttle if Isaac was surrendered to him.

However, Danik reneged on their deal, intending to execute all of them. Isaac attacked Danik. He, Carver and Norton are able to fend the Circle off long enough to regain a mild advantage. However, the emergence of the Nexus altered their situation. Isaac was sucked into the belly of the beast and forced to shoot his way out. In the ensuing confusion, Norton became hostile and began blaming Isaac for all of their misfortunes.

Norton fired at Isaac and Carver which Isaac fired back in self-defense, shooting Norton in the head. After regrouping, Isaac tried to explain to Ellie what happened, but she refused to listen to him. Santos uncovered the information about a device that the researchers referred to as the Codex and a guide known as Rosetta in a lab on top of a nearby mountain.

The group ascended the mountain, but a creature called the Snow Beast attacked when Santos was on the cargo cage.

Carver severed the main cable, disconnecting it and sacrificing Santos to prevent the entire cliff side from collapsing. Isaac eventually killed the Snow Beast by pulling it apart with the engine-powered harpoons and reunited with Ellie and Carver at the lab. As they explored the lab, they discovered that Rosetta was an alien dissected and carved up into separate sections. Rosetta possessed the information about the Codex, the Markers and the Convergence Event.

When all of the pieces of Rosetta are combined and scanned, Isaac was able to use the lab's equipment to experience Rosetta's memories: Rosetta was one of the planet's inhabitants that uncovered a Black Marker. This eventually led to a cataclysmic Necromorph infestation. After securing control over the sufficient biomass, the Convergence Event began.
