Learn about the Lanius in FTL: Faster Than Light, their unique abilities like draining oxygen, and their cost of 50 Scrap.

Lanius are creatures that feed on metal and can exist safely in the vacuum of space. They possess the unique ability to remove all Oxygen from the air in an occupied room, meaning they can suffocate other Species by their mere presence. This makes boarding their ships or sharing a room with them hazardous. Lanius have a movement speed of 0.8, making them slower moving and thus able to be outrun when required. They have 100 Health, 1 Repair, and 1 Damage.

Tips
  • Be cautious when engaging Lanius crew in combat, as they will drain the oxygen from any room they occupy.
  • Their immunity to suffocation means they can operate in vacuum without issue.
  • Their slower movement speed can be exploited to kite them in combat.
