The Light Skaarj is a creature from Unreal II: The Awakening.

Overview[]

Light Skaarj are a type of Skaarj that John Dalton encounters some time on the first mission.

Bearing a resemblance to the classic Skaarj Warriors, these are the smallest of the Skaarj classes, and wear no armor besides their Razik, which are now more fully depicted as wrist-mounted devices. The claws on the Razik appear smaller, though not by much, and are no longer retractable. The braided dreadlocks appear to take on a finer, more hair-like texture, and appear to be fixed through a series of diamond-shaped objects, giving the dreads their classic shape.

They are a little more heavy-set than their classic counterparts, and tend to be noticeably more aggressive. They fire low-powered energy blasts and can block attacks with claws. They can also inflict a significant amount of damage and can leap, spin and dodge. They retained their agility and will still dodge and leap to avoid projectile fire, but, if fired upon with a rapid-fire, instant hit weapon like the Duster Assault Rifle, they will block the shots with their claws and continue moving forward, an ability which counters the previous Skaarj's weakness to the original Minigun. They are also the most agile class of the Skaarj in the game. They are fairly weak, and can be dispatched fairly easily (a single unblocked charged shot with the Dispersion Pistol can kill them), but, due to the player's significantly slower movement rate in Unreal II compared to Unreal, they can still be a respectable threat.

They are the second enemy class that's seen after the Izarians in Unreal II: The Awakening. These are the most numerous, and the fastest of the Skaarj, but are the least armored.
