Nyx Assassin
A zealot scarab anointed by his queen goddess to kill.
Nyx Assassin is a melee Agility hero in Dota 2 played as a disabler and initiator. Impale stuns a line of enemies, Mind Flare damages a target based on its intelligence, and Spiked Carapace reflects damage and stuns attackers. His ultimate, Vendetta, makes him invisible and fast until he strikes for heavy damage.
Background
Zealot scarabs are telepathic insects described in an old book in the Archive of Ultimyr. Nyx Assassin was chosen from his colony and anointed with an extract of his queen goddess, Nyx, and came out of the change with a sharp mind and claws, made to kill in her name.
