Dark Splinter

Dark Splinters are Ing possessed Splinters. They are responsible for the deaths of much of the crew of the G.F.S. Tyr.

They are very aggressive and use the same ramming attack methods used by regular Splinters, but their strength and durability are augmented by the presence of the Ing symbiote. Samus encounters them in the Temple Grounds, Great Temple, and Dark Agon Wastes.
