Warden

The Warden is one of the enemy types found in Ghostrunner. They are ninjas that use katanas, just as the Ghostrunner does. They will charge at the player, whether from afar or from close-by. Before charging at you, their sword will start glowing and they will give off a sound, warning the player. As they can only do so in a clear (and free) line of sight, you can avoid them by breaking this line of sight. Running away from them will not work without doing the same, as they will also attack from behind. To defeat them, you have to parry their charge, after which they are stunned for a short while and can be killed off easily. You can parry by slashing in their direction just before the impact of their charge. This is easiest if further away from them, given you more time to respond. Attacking them from behind, or while they are not charging at you, will not have any effect, rather showing a 'rebooting' message and resetting the encounter. Attacking them with your abilities will work, though, even if not charging at you. They also sometimes give off audio ques before or after killing you. Some are quotes which can be found in popular anime. For example a soundclip of somebody saying "Yare Yare Daze" will play (not sure if this is linked to JoJo's Bizarre Adventure though).
