Lava Creatures

Living within the molten rivers of the Hollows are two entities seemingly born of fire and steel, with neither blood nor bone between them. The Lava Abomination, smaller in size but often emerging from the lava unexpectedly, hurls molten rocks from afar while marching toward Fury in a steady motion. Once close by, this creature shifts to a melee attack and punches and swipes without hesitation. It’s not unheard of for one Lava Abomination to pin Fury in the corner while another hurls rocks from a safe distance.

Lure the Lava Abomination onto solid ground, where Fury’s greater agility can keep her out of harm’s way. Though it’s possible to Arcane Counter, it can be effective to maintain the offensive. Don’t give the Lava Abomination the chance to get the upper hand.

The Lava Brute is similar in appearance but much larger and wields a mighty axe. This slow-moving guardian attacks by swinging his axe three times in quick succession. The initial two swings are horizontal, but the third is an overhand attack that gets stuck in the ground. Dodge all three, but wait to counter until his axe is lodged in the ground. Despite his size and the strength of this attack, the Lava Brute is not terribly difficult to beat. But it’s in death where the Lava Brute is perhaps most dangerous. Unlike other enemies that silently fade from existence, the Lava Brute explodes with a vengeance upon receiving a fatal blow. Back away quickly, else Fury may join him unexpectedly.
