A relaxed peace-in-death cultist with a healthy tan and a soothing voice. He doesn't really care if it is you or him who dies — “both” would probably be the best option.

“Death and death alone gives meaning to life and this meaning is entirely negative.”
-Georges Poulet


Useful Info

Norris is a dangerous unique spell caster. While he generally arrives unarmoured and has no resistances, he tends to open combat by debilitating you with spells before sweeping in with powerful two-handed weapon attacks.

Slot1 Brain Feed
Slot2 Smiting (7-17)
Slot3 Invisibility
Slot4 Confuse (50% success rate when MR=62)
Slot5 Paralyse (50% success rate when MR=62)
Slot6 Minor Healing (2d10)

Tips & Tricks

  • He has decent HP, but little staying power. While you can protect against some of his spells with See invisible, Clarity, Stasis, or high magic resistance, hitting him with a fast overwhelming offense gives him little time for trickery. Just be aware that he hits hard in melee; flimsy characters may find it worth enduring some smites and intelligence damage to keep him at range.
  • Norris also appears in Dungeon Sprint: Red Sonja.

Trivia

His tile used to show him carrying a surfboard, until the historical accuracy police took it away.
