Isaac tried to escape by boosting away, but the Tormentor grabbed his leg. Isaac grabbed hold of the gunship, but as he turned to look, the Tormentor crashed into the ship as well.

The gunship appeared outside and proceeded to open fire, breaking the glass and sucking Isaac and the Tormentor out into space with it whirling madly in the zero-gravity environment. Isaac then shot the yellow tissue on the arm's shoulder in order to dismember the limb and escape.Īfter successfully dismembering the Tormentor's arm, Isaac ran toward a window. After he fell through the vent into a bloodstained pit, the Tormentor appeared, roared at Isaac and seized him in one of its arms. The fight between Isaac and the Tormentor began when Isaac fell through a vent in order to escape the EarthGov gunship. It was very tough as the guns from the EarthGov Gunship (which could destroy a shuttle) did not seem to damage the beast. The Tormentor was first seen right after the encounter with Daina Le Guin. No characters said anything about its size, attacks, or even presence before Isaac encountered it. The only foreshadowing before the appearance of the Tormentor occured in Chapter 4, when Isaac first encountered the Stalkers in the Unitologist Church and sensed a massive Necromorph breaking and jamming a door.
