A hideous crone, her face covered in warts, moles and the occasional patch of hair, Josephine's appearance may fool one into thinking she is some weak old woman, but she is truly a formidable necromancer. The use of black magic has taken a physical toll on and prematurely aged Josephine, turning the once beautiful lady into an ugly hag.

Useful Info

Josephine is a unique evil necromancer with two nasty bolt spells in her repertoire. She typically wields a branded dagger and has an entourage of undead monsters surrounding her.

Tips & Tricks

  • Cold and negative energy resistance will take the sting out of her bolt spells, though you'll need rN+++ to completely avoid XP draining.
  • Try to separate her from her undead pets. She can deal a lot of HP and XP damage blasting you with bolts while you hack your way toward her.
