I'm going to focus on the alien team here, each species could do something unique to help other teammates.
Skulk: Can climb onto larger teammates, no helping bonus since it's default class.
Gorge: Can climb on teammates, and heal them as they ride.
Lerk: Can carry Skulk and Gorge, could have some AOE buff on the Fade and Onos.
Fade:Can buff damage momentarily, best offensive role. It supports working together as there is an Onos + Fade 1-2 punch. Cannot carry Gorge and skulk.
Onos: Could be a natural APC, blasting through the front line and unleashing smaller team mates once he's through. Could maybe get a defensive buff.

I don't like the idea of "auras", it's skillless. But having special "moves" including several lifeforms could be... interesting. Getting a skulk in an onos's belly ? Lifting gorges with lerk ? Gore-ing skulks/gorges to make em do a big jump ? Well. Not enough knowledge of the game to judge how it would affect it..
