The '''Cretaphid''' is a type of [[Alimbic]] defense drone. The Alimbics created them to guard sacred objects, most notably the [[Octolith]]s. It consists of a central column divided into three sections that rotate against each other, with large spots on the side. These spots are capable of shooting homing plasma or lasers. They are vulnerable when blue and can be destroyed. Once all spots are destroyed, a central crystal rises from the top of the Cretaphid. This is the only time it can be damaged. There are four versions that [[Samus Aran|Samus]] encounters.

This is the standard model. It has three rotating sections. One of these sections will fire constant lasers through the spots, while the other spots are always vulnerable.

The most advanced model has the characteristics of the Cretaphid v3, but is also mobile. It moves about the room, making targeting the Cretaphid difficult. The column will stop moving when the crystal rises.
