MemberFacehuggerJan-10-2025 3:53 PMWas an explanation ever provided anywhere as to why the Deacon come out fully formed, instead of first evolving into a chestburster? The first time we saw this in the film series was Alien3, specifically the Runner, but I didn’t think Scott acknowledged that!?
This makes me further wonder if a deacon could be facehugged!?
Given the mural shows ovomorphs already existed, was this meant to suggest David was not responsible for them?

I think David merely made a copy of the engineer's xenomorphs. The Alien RPG refers to David's recreation as the Praetomorph.
