The Plazmite has a special ability to store and release thermal energy at will.[1] The insect is attracted to heat sources, which the Plazmite thrives on.[1] They are also carnivorous, however, and fly up and down hallways searching for prey.[1] If a Plazmite feels threatened, it will fly towards its enemy and release thermal energy bursts at it until the threat is dealt with.[1] This feeling is usually triggered by being hit by a Beam weapon or if one is fired near its zone of comfort.
