| The '''Living Barrier''' is a type of fortification employed by [[Colony]], a [[Mgalekgolo]] [[Swarmlord]] serving the [[Banished]]. They consist of structures similar to [[Wikipedia:Dragon's teeth (fortification)|dragon's teeth]], filled with [[Lekgolo]] worms.{{Ref/Site|Id=Leggo|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/leggo-my-lekgolo|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Leggo My Lekgolo|D=03|M=05|Y=2017}}{{Ref/Game|Id=PL|HW2|Phoenix Logs|Detail=Living Barrier}} | | The '''Living Barrier''' is a structure and leader power employed by the [[Banished]] leader [[Colony]]. It consists of structures similar to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon%27s_teeth_(fortification) Dragon's Teeth], filled with [[Lekgolo]] worms. The structures that house the worms block armoured units from crossing their path, while the worms themselves are able to attack anything that comes close. The Living Barrier came about as a result of Colony's rapport with [[Huragok]] technicians, allowing the barrier to act as a Lekgolo cluster and communicator capable of acting as a forward scout to enhance Colony's awareness of a given area and impede enemy forces.

| Living Barrier structures house the worms inside their shell, blocking armoured units from crossing their path while the worms themselves are able to attack anything that comes close. The Living Barrier came about as a result of Colony's rapport with [[Huragok]] technicians, allowing the barrier to act as a Lekgolo cluster and communicator capable of acting as a forward scout to enhance Colony's awareness of a given area and impede enemy forces. Unfortunately, this employment of Lekgolo worms also reduces their lifespan massively.{{Ref/Reuse|Leggo}}{{Ref/Reuse|PL}}

| In ''[[Halo Wars 2]]'', the Living Barrier is a leader power available for [[Colony]], and can be unlocked immediately upon the game's start, with one additional upgrade. When deployed, the player may choose a line of deployment for the barriers, which are then dropped from orbit to block off a section of the map. The barriers provide visibility into the fog of war, damage nearby enemies, and can be upgraded to have energy shields - though can also be destroyed by enemy forces.
