Description
Ukhu is a Variant Clone of Athetos, which takes on the form of a giant wasp-like insect. Its exoskeleton has a purple-ish hue and it flies with four large opaque wings. Ukhu has two sharp mandibles, giving its jaw a beak-like appearance. It has five yellow eyes visible, and possibly more on the other side of its head, and a hard stinger protruding from its abdomen. The Etymology of Ukhu is Possibly related to the first Sumerian king after the deluge, Ukhusi; he had his capital city at Ukhu (north of Mesopotami, at Pteria).
Ukhu is the only Variant not mentioned in any of the Notes.
Ukhu Has 2,500 Health.

During the battle, Ukhu will spit purple sludge in Trace's direction. It will also use its stinger and arms to stab at Trace, which deals significant damage. Occasionally, Ukhu will lean backwards and release three smaller wasps from the holes in its abdomen. These smaller wasps can be killed for life drops and they can also be glitched (see more on this glitching in Strategy section below).
Upon defeating this Variant, Trace will gain access to the Drone Teleport.

- Voranj - With the way it spreads out with distance, makes it easy to hit its mouth.
- Shards - Makes its easier to hit the mouth by just getting close and jumping while holding the attack button constantly.
