Tormentors are powerful humanoid entities commanded by the Witness[1]. They manipulate Void energies, wield a scythe made of Pyramid tech, emit a field which suppresses a Guardian's powers, and grab Guardians to execute a Dark Harvest.[2]
Overview
Tormentors are hulking, vaguely humanoid beings, adorned in what appear to be long strips of cloth. They have long limbs and massive torsos, while appearing as nearly headless, instead having simple metallic "caps" which emit a bright yellow-orange light. Their hands and feet both have three fingers and an opposable thumb. Tormentors also wield massive scythes for close to medium range melee combat, and appear to harness an ability to manipulate void energy. They also possess a power referred to as "Dark Harvest", where they draw in a combatant within close-range, and appear to drain the life force out of them before knocking them back. The exact nature of this ability is currently unknown.
Trivia
- The Tormentors bear some similarities to the unknown creatures encountered by the Drifter on an unnamed icy world, which were also described as being headless and projecting a Light-nullifying field[3]. It is unknown as of yet if the two are related in some way.
