Evocators are powerful humanoid entities commanded by the Witness, its Disciples and allies. They are nimble entities that wield powerful orbs and Paracausal empowerment abilities.
Overview
Evocators are thin and spindly vaguely humanoid constructs. They share similar appearance traits to Tormentors and Subjugators with long arms and black claws with four fingers. The major difference is that their fingers and toes are webbed. Their skin appears to be made of the same material as objects found in pyramid structures, and their arms are made from a similar glass-like material. The face is featureless, save for two large eyes, and is obscured under a cloak similar to those worn by the Husks and the Caretaker.
The Evocators were created using Hive Wizards that have been reshaped by the Witness using stolen Light from the Traveler to fit a form similar to a Quassin, as well as having the minds of the two merged into one while removing their memories. Following the Witness' death within the Pale Heart, the Evocators would be lost and be drawn to the wielders of the Echoes and any lingering leaders of the Black Fleet, notably Fikrul, the Resonant Knife, Xal Tinar and Stioceon.
Gameplay
Much like Grim, Evocators are capable of levitation and are nimble on the battlefield, seemingly swimming through the air. Its main method of attack is firing bolts of Arc energy from its prisms. If a Guardian gets too close to melee them, they can use their prism as a melee weapon. Occasionally, they will thrust their prism upward to create an Arc storm, sending bolts of Arc Energy that can partially track Guardians. They can also slam their prism on the ground to create a pulse capable of temporarily blinding any Guardians looking directly at them. However, their prism also acts as a precision spot that deals more damage to it compared to the rest of its body.
However, the most notable thing about Evocators is their support capabilities. They can empower their allies through Voltic Empowerment to boost their speed and attack. The effect is doubled for enemies with Arc Weapons and Abilities such as most Fallen, Hive Thrall and Wizards and Scorn Abominations. This will be indicated to the player when they begin to draw energy from their prism into their other hand which they will crush, dispersing the energy to all enemies in the vicinity. This can be interrupted by either a powerful shot to an Evocator's prism or certain Guardian abilities that suppress, freeze or suspend.
