Overview |
Headless Ichthys (O-02-11-26) is a HE-class Abnormality that can be battled on Mondays in Thread Luxcavation, and as a potential boss in the Mirror Dungeon.
It is also encountered on Stations 7 & 11 of Line 1: MADNESS.
It is the source of the E.G.O Fluid Sac.
Appearance[]
Headless Ichthys is a giant, gray headless fish. It has a clean cut on its neck where the start of its spine is visible. Rather than a set of pectoral fins, it possesses a pair of large arms with human-like hands. Though destroying the hands reveals that their skeletal structure is more akin to a fish's rather than a human's. Other features of the Abnormality include a wide pair of gills, a tall dorsal fin and a pointed tail fin.
Besides its lack of a head, the most notable feature of Headless Ichthys is the giant sac that extends out from its chest and abdomen. The sac is initially filled with blood with it shoots out at its opponents through the opening in its neck, but after an amount of time, the contents of the sac change to a blue liquid. A silhouette of a central nervous system can be seen inside the sac.

Log Writer: Meursault
-Its head has been cut off.
-The cut surface is clean; it appears to have been done with a single-sided edge, such as a knife or a scythe.
-It exhibits motion in spite of the lack of a head. I am aware that whether or not an Abnormality has an intact head is completely irrelevant to its ability to show activity, but I will note this regardless.
-An inflated sack visible around the chest area. Could not make clear observation.
-Will note new discoveries in a future report.
-It bears resemblance to a flower, or the central nervous system of a human.
-It expands the sack to use as blunt instrument, and can squeeze it at high speed to expel liquid.
-Overall, the sack is deemed to be a major component of its attacks; quick destruction should prove effective.
-Will note new discoveries in a future report.

Trivia[]
- Ichthys is a fish symbol used by early Christians as a secret symbol to show that they were followers of Christ. The word itself is a Greek acronym ἸΧΘΥΣ, translating to Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior:
- Ἰ - Ἰησοῦς - Iesous - Jesus
- Χ - Χριστóς - Christos - Christ
- Θ - Θεοῦ - Theou - God
- Υ - Υἱός - Huios - Son
- Σ - Σωτήρ - Soter - Savior
- Headless Ichthys' name is specifically based on a rendition of this symbol.
