This made him a social recluse and loner, far more content in his own company, and comfortable in the dark, forbidding forests and swamps around the Mongo. The Stranger was convinced that he needed to integrate with the invasive colonial species that had moved in around the Mongo River in order to avoid being hunted down. His faded poncho and trusty crossbow hint at his rich cultural origin. His piercing green eyes and facial hair make him quite handsome and rugged. He is resourceful, and much of his armour and clothing has been picked up and repaired as he moves from town to town.
He weighs 260 pounds.ĭressed in his bleached hat and tattered boots, Stranger has the appearance of the nomad he is. He uses his appalling bad breath to persuade Outlaws to relinquish information. The Stranger never looks after his oral hygiene. He also hides his four legs inside two large boots when interacting with the more narrow‐minded races of the Mongo River area. Unlike other Steef, the Stranger has no horns, but the reasons for this are unknown. At such a velocity, the Stranger acts much like a car but with greater agility and breaking, and a direct ram can knock anyone flying. When reaching high speeds he can drop down onto all four (or all six) to run at 45 miles per hour. His forearms scatter enemies when he performs his spinning attack, and his head butt can knock Outlaws unconscious. Mindfully balancing compelling storylines with propulsive gameplay, Stranger’s Wrath is able to examine timely philosophical themes such as the displacement of indigenous people, the privatization of natural resources, and the rising cost of health care without sacrificing fun.įor more Oddworld goodness, please see our website at and follow us on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Twitch, YouTube, TikTok, and Discord.The Stranger is muscular and powerful.
