Red Ivan

Red Ivan is another returning character and one of four playable evil geniuses in Evil Genius 2, focusing on muscle.

Description
Red Ivan is the muscle-focused genius in Evil Genius 2. His abilities are tailored to having more advanced muscle minions than the other playable geniuses.

The character was an unlockable henchman in the first Evil Genius game. Because of this, it is presumed that he helped the previous Evil Genius take over the world and was given a country as compensation for his effort. He named it "Ivania", however later lost control over it when the Forces of Justice (F.O.J.) reformed.

Ivan's storyline follows him vowing to defeat the F.O.J. through the use of his doomsday device to 'avenge' Ivania

Abilities
'''Do It Now! —' Orders minions to prioritise jobs in Red Ivan's vicinity. Additionally, any nearby minions receive a combat boost.''

Old School — ''Ivan equips a Rocket Launcher and fires a devastatingly powerful explosive shot. Warning: Chaos may ensue.''

Might Makes Right — ''Born in battle, Ivan is capable of marshalling a large number of Muscle minions without paying quite as much. Even his workers pack a better punch.'' (Passive Ability)

Doomsday Device
Red Ivan's end goal in the story is to construct a Doomsday device called 'H.A.V.O.C'. When launching, the device unleashes a devastating barrage of atomic fire on the target. He plans to use this device to avenge "Ivania", a country he previously owned that was stripped away from him.

When fired, the device will cause multiple infernos to break out across your lair. These will cause significant damage if no fire extinguishers are nearby.
