Quicklime

Quicklime portrait

A mason made entirely of its own repairs. It will not wall you out. It repoints every crack you open, and every stroke you land comes back a little duller off its face. The lime in its seams burns wet and hot, and a chill will not take hold on it the way it takes on honest stone. It is in no hurry. It has closed larger wounds than you can open.

Boss 167 HP hits for up to 38 8.8 damage per turn on average

The mason of the closing wound. It repoints every crack you open and grinds your edge blunt on its own face, so the one enormous banked swing arrives at half price against a bar that already crawled back up. Then the mortar sets, it stops mending, and it starts dropping stone.

Tuned against

This boss is built to punish the Frost deck. It never stands at the end of Descent I against that deck; from Descent II on, bring something else, or bring an answer.
