** Note that the Red and Black markers only show horrific visions [[Starfish Language|as a form of communication]], and mostly ''try'' to prevent Necromorph outbreaks; it's stated a few times that one needs a high level of intelligence to properly interpret the visions and ''not'' go insane. The Golden Marker, on the other hand, seems actively malevolent. The visions of Nicole that it shows Isaac taunt, lie to and manipulate him, and want him to {{spoiler|kill himself}} in the end. The Golden Marker seems ''built'' to {{spoiler|begin Necromorph outbreaks and trigger Convergence events}}, unlike the others, which work to prevent them.
