Trivia

  • Hemolymph is a circulatory fluid (different from blood) found on Earth in arthropods. Since the Fallen are insectoid, their circulatory fluid may very well be closer to hemolymph than blood.
    • However, this does not really explain the use of the term for a vehicle used to repair combat mechs, as, so far as is known, the mechs are not organic.
    • It is possible the mechs, or Fallen equipment in general, are biotechnological, although there is no confirmation for this idea at present.
