The Igniot is a very strange enemy that has an Egyptian look to it. Unlike most [[Underworld]] foes, this monster appears to actually be made up of two separate creatures that work together. One part of it is a hand with three fingers that ends in a base with three more fingers. The second part looks like a metallic amulet with a single large eye and two snake statues, which is attached to a chain that is held by the aforementioned hand creature. This eyeball is what the Igniot as a whole uses to attack with, as it is capable of firing a dangerous laser that can reach quite far and can [[Status Ailments|petrify]] Pit on contact. However, it's not a mobile creature, so the Igniot will not be able to pursue Pit if he falls out of its view. | The Igniot is a very strange enemy that has an Egyptian look to it.

There are also cellular versions, which are a quite different colour, and are very shiny. | ||

*Its name possibly comes from the words “ingot” and “igneous”, describing how the eyeball amulet part of the monster is likely carved out of gold or rock. | *Its name possibly comes from the words “ingot” and “igneous”, describing how the eyeball amulet part of the monster is likely carved out of gold or rock. |
