Simulacrum

A simulacrum is a representation of something or someone. Durandal uses the word to describe "assimilated" BOBs, android bombs manufactured by the Pfhor.

Upon seeing you, they will usually run directly towards you, usually shouting things like "I'm out of ammo!", "Thank God it's you!" or the infamous "Frog blast the vent core!", and when close enough, less than 3 meters,[1] they will explode and inflict severe damage to anyone nearby.

There are other differences between human Bobs and Simulacrums: apparently the assimilated Bobs have red pupils, only two toes, no genitalia and disformed teeth, although these differences do not appear in-game.[2] Also, assimilated Bobs will run directly towards you, whereas humans will run erratically, and assimilated Bobs never shoot at anyone.
