	Vortigaunt
		While they have their own language, Vortigaunts are also able to speak in English (and remark humourously on the etiquette of which language to use in Half-Life 2).
		Also, in another section of Half-Life 2, you can see a dead vortigaunt with the collar and armbands, sitting in what looks to be an operating chair, and there is blood on the floor and on the dead vortigaunt himself.
		Both Vortigaunts are able to regain health by damaging objects or enemies, further supporting the theory that Vortigaunts can drain lifeforce/energy with their beam attacks.

	Games - Vortigaunt
		The Vortigaunt has a hunched back, and its face is dominated by a large, single red eye, surrounded by five smaller eyes.
		It is also revealed that the Vortigaunts are capable of using their electrical attack productively, as a blue stream that can recharge batteries and power electronics.
		The Vortigaunts credit Gordon Freeman with their freedom, as the Nihilanth's death is what released them.

	Vortigaunt at AllExperts (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.cs.unc.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		These attacks never occur during the singleplayer, and the only way to see a Vortigaunt in combat is to spawn it with enemies using the console.
		They appear to gather a ball of green energy in their hands, and then slam it into the ground, forming a shockwave that stuns or injures nearby enemies (in the Antlion's case, it knocks them over).
		The Vortigaunt in question is shown roasting a headcrab over an open fire while chanting, eventually breaking to "hack" and "wheeze" for a moment.

	Vortigaunt - Valve Developer Community
		Previously known as alien slaves, vortigaunts, or vorts, these are the Xen aliens first seen in Half-Life.
		Quotes from HL2 suggests that the vortigaunts were controlled by the Nihilanth for eons much like Breen controlled the human race: The Nihilanth was a Combine product, and the vorts mostly rejoiced when it died, but it was only "the lesser master" and they now work together with Freeman to kill "the greater master".
		The vortigaunt seem to refer to "a deeper mystery" and "something secret steers us both", which seems to refer to the G-Man, so they seem to have been contacted by the G-man too, or at least someone from his origin.

	Vortigaunt - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is not known whether this is a lack of understanding or a deliberate choice on their part.
		The game also reveals that the Vortigaunts are capable of using their electrical attack productively, in the form of a blue energy stream that can recharge batteries, power electronic circuits and fuse objects together.
		The Vortigaunts credit Gordon Freeman with their freedom, and hold him in high esteem as "The Free Man" (as it was Freeman who slew the Nihilanth and freed the Vortigaunts), though they also seem to mourn all those "whose cords you [Freeman] cut".

	Talkative Vortigaunt - Half-Life Fallout Forums
		The Vortigaunt's dialogue is quite interesting because it contains information on their slavery by Nihilanth among other things.
		The Vortigaunt who mounts the gun on your boat also says all of those sentences.
		So does the Vortigaunt who is in the secret cave near the area where you have to shoot down the super-helicopter (the one that rains down hundreds of mines).

		“vortigaunt sex” - this one just jumped off of the monitor at me - from amongst all of the AQ hacking requests, this stood out like a brilliant diamond among coals.
		I have a feeling that someone has been using Garry’s Mod for someting other than its intended purpose (which, of course, is to create giant heaps of slightly rusted barrels and discarded tires… and then setting them on fire).
		After you beat the helicopter at the end of the level, go through the gate and look for a partially opened sewer outlet… run through the health-sapping biohazard sewage, and you’ll find a room with the “all-knowing vortigaunt,” who will spount a huge number of phrases when you talk to it.

	Apprehension In City 17. The Vortigaunt.
		The Vortigaunts are a race of beings from a border world that exists between our universe and the next - a race once enslaved.
		Security guards for the Facility took out their fair share, then "America's Finest" were sent in to clean up the rest...
		Does the vortigaunt speak in an oblique fashion, from a shared point of view outside of time and space such as The Gman and Gordon also appear to now inhabit, but where the ending is still yet to be decided?

	Random thoughts on HL2
		(Many such places have invisible walls to stop ingenious players, but there are some they missed.) When you reach the resistance base where the vortigaunt attaches the gun to your boat, park the boat well away from the dock where it's supposed to be.
		On the left, partly obscured by the "Earth Surrenders" clipping, there's a clipping with a blurred headline that, if you look carefully (take a screenshot), says "Learning about 9/11.." (there's more, but the rest of the headline is covered up).
		(The airboat's do.) In "Sandtraps", after the bull antlion is dead and the vortigaunt leads you into the resistance base, stop and talk to the two vortigaunts who are talking in an alien language.

	Black Mesa
		The Vortigaunts were powerless to resist their master as it guided them into battle time and time again.
		The simple instructions suddenly made divine sense, and the Vortigaunt felt great anticipation of the pleasure it would receive when it fulfilled its mission.
		They had encountered great hardship on their journey and lost many of their companions, but they had made it to the surface; to the main parking garage.

	Games - Alien Grunt
		Alien Grunts are known as the soldier class of the humanoid Vortigaunt
		Alien Grunts share many features with their vortigaunt counterparts: red eyes, backwards-jointed legs and a third arm growing from their chest.
		The implication is that the Alien Grunts are manufactured beings, an idea that is substantiated by their shining, metallic armour that appears surgically attached.

	Concerned #137: Friday, April 14, 2006
		I'm not very good at writing Vortigaunt dialogue, but my friend Greg is. And, not only can he write like a Vort, he can sound like one.
		I was planning on using these in a Frohman Mod (still hope to), but since I haven't had much time to mess around with the SDK and FacePoser lately, I figure I should just go ahead and post them, because they're great.
		If Frohman ever took the time to talk to a Vortigaunt, this is definitely what it would say.

		This may be the result of the "new battery" Alyx suggested in Episode One, or the Vortigaunt's presence.

		Oh, and by the way, Gordon is seen as a sort of legendary rebel, Robin Hood mixed with Luke Skywalker.
