'''Dark Splinters''' are [[Ing]]-[[Darkling|possessed]] [[Splinter]]s. They are responsible for the deaths of much of the crew of the [[G.F.S. Tyr|G.F.S. ''Tyr'']].

==Properties==
Dark Splinters 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 Aran|Samus]] encounters them in the [[Temple Grounds]], the [[Great Temple]], and [[Dark Agon Wastes]]. [[Samus Aran|Samus]] first witnesses their destructive power in a [[Galactic Federation Data Terminal|visual record]] left behind by the deceased [[Captain A. Exeter]] of the [[GFMC Task Force Herakles]]. In it, much of the Bravo Squadron are shown being overrun by their superior numbers and slaughtered. Shortly thereafter, Samus is attacked by a group of four Dark Splinters just after acquiring a [[Missile Launcher]].

Samus encounters Dark Splinters several times while exploring the Temple Grounds, and even battles a darkling [[Alpha Splinter]] in the [[Great Temple]].
