Acolyte

Acolytes are enemies from the game Strife. They are soldiers of The Order. They are dressed in full body armor, which covers a mostly cybernetic body, varying in color and are armed with Assault Rifles. They leave a Bullet Clip after death. They attack only if alarm is active.

Some Acolytes are dressed in Shadow Armor and are called Shadow Acolytes. They are translucent, but don't vary from ordinary Acolytes in other terms. All types of Acolytes have 70 Hit Points and take the same damage to kill as a Commando.

According to Macil the main platoon of Acolytes are controlled by a single program, created by the Programmer, and this is why the player must eventually face him in the first part of the game.
