A beautiful enchantress.

"Lo, thy comrades yonder in the house of Kirke are penned like swine in close-barred sties. And art thou come to release them? Nay, I tell thee, thou shalt not thyself return, but shalt remain there with the others."

-Homer, _Odysseia_

Useful Info

Kirke is an unusual unique sorceress who travels with a band of hogs and would very much like for you to join them! She can cast several dangerous Hexes, including one unique spell which turns you into a pig, and calls ugly things into existence to aid her in combat. On top of that, she has a permanent Deflect Missiles effect in place, rendering her somewhat more difficult to kill at range. Bring high magic resistance to avoid an embarrassing death ("extraordinarily resistant" is generally enough to resist all her enchantments).

Slot2 Slow
Slot3 Summon Ugly Thing
Slot4 Porkalator
Slot5 Corona
Slot6 Invisibility

Tips & Tricks

  • Don't waste time killing her hogs. They offer no experience, and once Kirke's dead they'll transform back into their original forms and be neutral toward you.
  • High magic resistance will block the majority of her spells. An amulet of stasis will guarantee you resist being slowed.

Trivia

Kirke is a reference to Circe, a beautiful Greek goddess of magic who turned her enemies into pigs through potions.
