Stalker (Dead Space)
A pack-hunting Necromorph from the Dead Space series that uses decoys and flanking attacks. One shows itself at a corner as bait while another charges from a different direction, and they call to each other. The wiki describes them as the only Necromorphs known to communicate directly.12
