Blinding Spore Carriers is a Codex entry featured in Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Extraction. It is unlocked by starting an incursion with the Blinding Spore Carrier mutation active.

INDEX Analysis:
This Chimera mutation manifest as bulbous growths on various motile Archaeans. The growths have been identified as Blinding Spores. (INSERT: Hibana - They look even more strange covered with those things.)
The growths exhibit similar behavior to static Blinding Spores and do no inhibit carrier abilities. (Cross-Ref: ongoing biomechanical and trait analyses of Archaeans)
Blinding Spores do not detonate while attached to Archeans. They will transfer host if approached and subsequently detonate and release a cloud of noxious gas.
EXTRAPOLATIONS:
Archeans have been observed emerging from Nests with spores attached. Suggests an adapted mutation, not a chance occurrence (ie/ spores attached to passing Archæan).
Speculating on mutation evolution: May be an enhanced active-propagation mechanism for the Chimera organism. Archæan mobility allows for faster spread of spores. Requires further study. (INSERT: Mira - That's a likely scenario. We need to determine what else these Blinding Spores are for.)
ENGAGEMENT PROTOCOLS:
Approaching Carrier Archeans will trigger the spore's proximity sensors causing it to throw out tendrils of Sprawl and attach itself to the Operator. Engage from a distance.
