Herex is an NPC.
Appearance
Herex is a large gremlin with the demeanor of a Ghostmane Stalker. His otherwise grey outfit is covered in red fabric, with a single somewhat robotic green eye glaring out of a slit in the wraps. He always carries a sword on his hip and two green saw blades orbit his body.
Notes
This character is mentioned in 
Expansion Mission: Operation Crimson Hammer and Dangerous Mission: Compound 42. He was first seen with release 2014-05-21.
Herex, also known as "The Whispering Venom," was a member of the Crimson Order. He owns a gremlin bioweapon facility named "Compound 42," a place visited as part of a Danger Mission of the same name.
A Scenario Room in arcade Compound areas is associated with Herex. Inspecting a gremlin body reveals a message: The others must never know. Silence them. -H
In the 7-3 Mission: Spark and Roar: Hidden Hideout floor, a module can be found with information about Herex and his more recent relationship with the Crimson Order. Black squares floating around the area, along with Herex's green insignia on the floor, indicate that the Swarm and Herex are involved in something together.
Schemer Razwog and Herex seem to have some connection with each other, indicated by a module found in the 1-4 Mission: Crossing the Chasm. Other connections these two characters may have are unknown.
Seerus and Herex seem to have a poor relationship, based on dialogue witnessed in Operation Crimson Hammer.
After obtaining The Artifact in the 4-2 Mission: A New Threat, Herex takes it into the Firestorm Citadel, where players encounter and fight him in the 10-2 Mission: Shadowplay. Later, in the 10-2 Mission: Dreams and Nightmares, he is seen with a large Swarm-like entity at the entrance to the Core. Herex's true motives and whereabouts are currently unknown.
Strategy
He can hide his location using an ability similar to chromalisk camouflage when out of combat. This behavior is seen in A New Threat, though he is not actually fought in this mission.
When fought in Shadowplay, his cloaking ability is most similar to the technique used by Stalkers. ??? - Pending elaborate strategy. Simply corner him then keep hitting, the orbiting green saw blades do not injure the player. Even the basic attacks of a brandish type of sword will work, though this is slow - something the player might have brought to deal with the rest of the monsters in shadowplay.

Dialogue
|
|
Schemer Razwog: Work away from the others. The Order must never know we have the artifact. Find a way to power it. Bring it to me. Do not betray me. I will know.
-H
|
|
|
|
| Hsst! So, you're the ones who defeated Razwog and took what was mine. You are not worthy of possessing this powerful Artifact and so I am here to relieve you of it.
|
|
|
|
Pah! I am no mere gremlin. I am the thousand eyes that watch you in the darkness. I am the hissing blade that whispers your doom. Tear down every wall and cog in this accursed place and you will find only shadows.
I cannot be stopped by the likes of you! Hsst!
|
|
|
|
| You cannot stop what you cannot see.
|
|
|
|
| (There is no trace of the gremlin or the Artifact. This gremlin seems very adept at covering his tracks.)
|
|
- Ugh, I'd better contact Kora. (ends dialogue)
|
|
The Iron Law is Broken!
The Crimson Order is False!
The Nine are blind, they cannot see the Truth that lies below.
The Nine are deaf, they cannot hear the Resonance that beats within this world.
Herex no longer serves as one of the Nine.
Only Herex sees and hears the Truth. Only Herex will prevail.
Follow Herex and you will be spared.
|
|
|
|
| Too late again! I have already collected the power I need to use the Artifact and nothing you can do now will stop what I have set in motion.
|
|
After defeating waves of toxic minions:
|
|
| Go. I will allow you to have one last moment before I destroy your meddling kind. However, should you choose to turn down my generous offer then you are welcome to come and face me in the Core where I will hasten your demise.
|
|
|
|
| I look forward to our next...meeting.
