Boss Spotlight- Spawn of Fenris


Child of Loki, send forth your sons;

ripping, gnashing, biting, tearing!

Feral as the day they were born,

enemy to all that they scorn.


Blacken the sun with your numbers,

and paint with crimson gore;

Ragnarok comes early--

be gone, run on, begone!


Spawn of Fenris, bold and bluff;

fearless, dauntless, heedless, boundless!

Running over frozen grounds,

thunder pales ‘gainst hordes of hounds!


Swift moving are their massive paws,

their speed cannot be yoked.

Powerful are their massive jaws,

by battle rage provoked.


Run swift!  Bite hard!


The Spawn of Fenris is the boss that can be seen in the Blighted Mire. It resides inside the forgotten waterfall and will reveal itself multiple turns after the Bog Slave. This corrupted canine should not be taken lightly. In fact, you should probably kill it as soon as it reveals itself. The Spawn of Fenris will take down your weakest minions first. Its passive ability, Consume, allows the wolf to gain an additional attack and defense dice and if you cut its health to 25%, it will gain another defense dice. After four consumption's, the Spawn of Fenris will go directly to your homunculus so I hope you have a lot of body defense dice.  You should also be wary of its Ghost Step passive.  The Spawn of Fenris can pass through any occupied tiles and if it has less than 25% health it will even deal one damage to anything in its path.

As the name implies, this boss is the child of the giant wolf, Fenris, of Norse mythology. Fenris was feared for because of its size and strength which worried the gods. Fenris was eventually tricked into wearing an unbreakable chain around its neck rendering him from causing harm.  On the day of Raganarok, Fenris will break the magic chain and seek revenge on Odin and battle the gods.

The Spawn of Fenris is more feral than his father. It has the instincts of a wolf but is smarter making it a deadly adversary.  If you hope to conquer the afterlife one day, you will have to get past the Spawn of Fenris.
