The Vortigaunt Hierarchy
Enslaved Vortigaunt: These vortigaunts were enslaved by the combine and do labor work like cleaning the streets of garbage. They drag their feet around and have a hunched posture for the most part. At the end of Half Life 2 Ep 2 any surviving enslaved vortigaunts had the chance of escape from the city. They have their shackles on them and have a low chance of survival in the outlands with them on unless they found a safe route or were led and protected by someone until they got their shackles taken off.
Youngling: Younglings are young vortigaunts or vortigaunts that just escaped the combine. If a vortigaunt has a very weak connection to the vortessence they are considered a youngling. Younglings are taught the vortessence by an Elder
Novice: Novice vortigaunts are vortigaunts that were taught the basics of the vortessence. They can create a small green light in their hands to illuminate dark areas, they can heal small cuts and minor infections and repair scars.
Apprentice: Apprentice vortigaunts are vortigaunts that are currently being taught major skills to have a greater connection to the vortessence. They can heal minor bullet wounds, power electronic devices for a few minutes and they have better healing skills.
Adept: These vortigaunts have the skills and connection to shoot vorti blasts, use shields that stop bullets going slower than the sound barrier, power electric items for a day, stop diseases, major infections, second degree burns and make other humans regain consciousness.
Elder: Elders are vortigaunts that have mastered all aspects of the vortessence and are now teaching other vortigaunts to call upon the vortessence. They are teachers to all vortigaunts that need it.
Grand Elder: “The Grand Elder is the rarest type of vortigaunt and they have had a HUGE amount of training, estimating from the thousands to hundred thousands of years, even before their enslavement and migration to earth, it's not possible to be trained to this without authorization from the owner, the Grand Elderare able to train any type of vortigaunt and are able to lead massive chants. Their abilities include healing large cuts, large bullet wounds, all types of infection, burns, and healing up wound processes, they have the ability to charge up an extremely lethal vortessence burst, which takes a while to charge [3 turns] which causes burns on the entire body, along with several bones breaking. They also have the ability to disable cameras, etc.”
