Tormentors are hulking, vaguely humanoid beings, adorned in what appear to be long strips of cloth-like material. They have long limbs and massive torsos, but appear to be nearly headless, instead having simple metallic "caps" which emit a bright yellow-orange light. Their hands and feet both have three fingers and an opposable thumb. Parts of them appear to be made of the same colored stone or transparent glass-like material found throughout the Pyramids of the [[Black Fleet]].

Tormentors wield massive scythes made out of [[Pyramid]] technology for close to medium range melee combat, and appear to harness the power to manipulate [[Void]] energy and generate weak spots on their body similar to [[Rhulk, Disciple of the Witness|Rhulk]] and [[Nezarec, Final God of Pain]]. They also possess a powerful ability referred to as "Dark Harvest", where they draw in a combatant within close-range and, if uninterrupted, drain the life force out of them, until the target is left in a extremely weaken state, in which they then blast them away.

Tormentors appear to be related in some way to the former Disciple of the Witness known as [[Nezarec]]; several Tormentors have been encountered bearing the title "Imprint of Nezarec" or "Cavum of Nezarec". Nezarec himself strongly resembles a large Tormentor, suggesting they may be the same species. When first encountered, Osiris claims that Tormentors are "The fruits of an unholy alliance between the Witness and Calus",<ref>'''Bungie (2023/2/28)''' ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Lightfall]] - Mission: First Contact</ref>, while [[Quinn Laghari]] later questions if they are the same species as Nezarec or clones made by the Witness,<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ays25gide1Y&ab_channel=DestinyLoreVault| Idle Dialogue, Neomuna | Quinn: "The Same Species as Nezarec?" | Lightfall]</ref> perhaps using Calus' cloning technology.
