Behavior & Notes

  • Midrange controller: lashes thorned vines, then blooms clouds of toxic rose pollen that linger in corridors.
  • Her “poisonous bloom” phase grows armor petals; fire/ice strip petals, opening a brief stagger window.
  • Will not attack if players stay outside her “garden” ring; crossing it enrages her but also exposes root-chains that can be shattered to end the curse early.
  • Narrative hook: a tragic noble—choices to cure, exile, or end her curse could change local faction reputation.

Open questions / conflicts

  • Set canonical origin: which court cursed her (Seigetsu? Verdathal?) and where her garden is located.
  • Decide if an alchemical antidote or ritual can spare her (alternate resolution path).
  • Clarify loot: thorned regalia vs. poison petals vs. quest key.
