Speaks
A cunning merfolk water-witch, who uses her beauty and spellcraft to draw unwitting adventurers to their deaths.

"We have lingered in the chambers of the sea
By sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red and brown
Till human voices wake us, and we drown."

-T.S.Eliot, _The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock_. Lines 129-131. 1915.

Tips & Tricks

See invisible, levitation (to avoid being stuck in shallow water the entire fight), and the means to kill her quickly are all highly recommended before taking her on. Between her high HP and decent EV, she can be tricky. Her water elementals deal surprising amounts of damage, and she can summon a lot of them. If you're in melee with her while in water, both she and her elementals can outrun you; some form of haste or other escape may be necessary. Note that she lacks any resistances; poison or Mephitic Cloud can be very effective in taking her down, possibly after you have had to flee from her and her summons. It's often easier to pick off a few members of her army at a time before fleeing back upstairs to heal.
