Hylden warriors

Hylden warriors, also known simply as Warriors, were a Hylden enemy class encountered in Blood Omen 2. They were first seen in Chapter 9:The Device and were again encountered in Chapter 11:The Hylden City.

Hylden Warriors  were combat specialised Hylden troops featured in Blood Omen 2. Kain encountered the Warriors when he descended into the Device in Chapter 9: Into the Depths and again in the Hylden City in Chapter 11: The Living End. Presumably among the elite of the hylden armies, the warriors were some of the deadliest enemies Kain fought during his quest to destroy The Device and the Hylden Gate. Despite their emaciated appearance, they could take a beating, requiring several strikes to put down. They were also extrodinarily swift and agile, and had several special attacks; rivalling or even surpassing the Lesser Demons, (which they often worked with) in terms of deadliness.

The most notable physical features were a pair of bone like protrusions on their arms that were nearly as long as they were tall. These 'bladed arms' functioned as effective weapons and could be employed offensively or defensively. Warriors often used their 'bladed arms' as a weapon, enabling a swift and devastating Unblockable attack, where enemies were targeted and quickly impaled with both blades, causing large damage and giving little advance warning of the attack.
