The Screamer

-- While it still may be similar in appearence to a Common Infected, do not be fooled. The main distinguishing feature of this particular infected is the straight jacket which binds it's arms together, rendering it unable to use traditional methods of attack. Instead, it utters a piercing wail which is used to empower nearby common infected.

-- Has very little heatlh, has to rely on it's speed and other infected to protect it.

-- Energy bar must be fully charged to use the "scream" ability. Takes 25 or so seconds to recharge.

-- Common infected within the radius of the scream's influence will have temporarily buffed health and attack. Lasts 15 seconds. A bit gimmicky, but the scream will also detonate any nearby explosives that are being held, or have been already deployed like C4 and Mines.

-- Costs $60, $40 for killing one.

These numbers are not final, any feedback is appreciated.
