Assassin

Spoiler Warning: This page contains spoilers which may affect your IVAN experience negatively

The assassin is a quick, frustrating enemy found quite early into the game.

Assassins have a very strange anatomy, their limbs actually being of negative weight. This, however, allows them to dodge pretty much all of your attacks and also move extremely fast. They also explode in gratuitous spray of gore on death, coating your equipment in blood and likely rusting it. As such, it might be clever to take out assassins at range whenever possible, should you be able to actually hit them from afar.

Trivia

• While assassin corpse will weight around 3g after death, this is mostly due to the negative weight of their limbs. It is actually possible to pick up the limbs cut off in combat and use them as a temporary Sol Stone, until they rot away. That is an acknowledged bug as it can lead to degenerate behaviour of trying to cut off as many assassin's limbs as possible before his inevitable death, to get more negative weight from these body parts.
