Illuminati

The Illuminati is an enemy in the game Immortal Redneck. It is a slow-hovering creature that resembles an upside-down pyramid with runic markings along its sides. The pyramid is divided into six horizontal slices, held together by a glowing green energy.

The Illuminati will wander and patrol until it spots the player. If it sees the player, its segments will spin and separate a bit, revealing the glowing energy within. After a short period of charging, it will shoot a fast-moving bolt of green energy surrounded by particle effects.

Packs of Illuminati can be especially dangerous, since they rarely sync their attacks and dealing with them requires the player to look up and away from everything else happening in the room.

The Good Guy Scroll allows the player to gain an Illuminati as a follower. The Illuminati will remain in a fixed spot above the player's head (sort of like a turret) and use its attack on any enemy monsters it sees. This "good guy" Illuminati is invulnerable to damage and will follow the player for the rest of the run.

Except for when a player gains the Good Guy Scroll, the Illuminati only appears in the third pyramid. It has no elite version.

TRIVIA: "The Illuminati" is a name given to several organizations (both real and fictional), typically associated with higher power and global conquest. Most iterations of the Illuminati are symbolized by a floating pyramid topped by an all-seeing eye, which may explain the naming choice.
