(The second codex entry states that an embryonic hell razer is a parasite that alters a host's body. Given the similarities, I think it's safe to assume that the hell razers in the game were borne from Possessed soldiers.) |

The Hell razer's main weapon is a precise red laser that seems to have unlimited range. This can be a nuisance in certain large arenas, e.g. Reactor room in VEGA Central Processing. Fortunately, the lasers do not track well; they can be easily dodged with minimal movement.

Lore
UAC data classifies the Hell razer as an astute, tactical foe that prefers long-range combat using its arm cannon laser beam, which consists of unrefined but highly focused Hell energy. Lazarus Project research examined how a parasitic hell razer embryo alters a host creature, producing the arm cannon and altering the host body so that it can survive the heat produced by use of the weapon.
