Tomahawkers are native Mudokons that have been given a weapon to bludgeon enemies with.
The weapon is a large bone wrapped in bandages and animal sinew to provide grip and hold it together. In the smacking end of it is inserted a pinkish-purple globe. It is held in left hand and rested against shoulder when not in use.
Due to the presence of their clubs, they are the first Mudokons in the Oddworld series to be able to reliably defend itself and go on the attack. As such, Tomahawkers are an upgrade to the Scrubs and Natives found in Munch's Oddysee.
However, caution should still be taken as Tomahawkers still have the fragility of most Mudokons, making them glass cannons and vulnerable to enemies with range weapons such as Slig Poppers and Vyyker Shot Docs. Later in the game, Tomahawkers could be upgraded/transformed into the much more powerful Mudarchers.
Trivia[]
- Tomahawkers is an obvious reference to the native American weapon of the same name. Curiously enough, actual Tomahawks are axes rather than the stone clubs that Tomahawkers use.
- It is possible that Tomahawkers is another blatant expy of the Mudokon Native American archetype.
