While the Swinefolk are vile, vicious, and cruel creatures, they do, somehow, seem to possess some small capacity to care for and protect their offspring and kin. Many years ago, the Swinefolk would exile or — more likely — eat their weaker and deformed offspring, but in recent years that practice has changed. When the Humans outside of the Warrens began to outnumber them, they realized that they lacked the numbers necessary to defend their domain.
As such, the Swinefolk began to augment their weaker kin's flesh with various metallic implants in an attempt to make them strong enough to do battle. After many years and countless failed attempts, they eventually were successful in their modification efforts and created the Swine Slasher: a vicious little amalgamation of flesh and rusted metal ready to hunt down any and all who would dare invade their squalid home.
Despite being frail in form, the Swine Slasher is a surprisingly sturdy and powerful creature, due in part to being clad in steel spikes and equipped with a heavy wooden buckler wrapped in chains. However, its most deadly augmentation is the large, bloody hook that has replaced its right hand and acts as an extension of its own twisted will. With this hook, the Swine Slasher is capable of rending through armor or flesh with equal ease and inflicting grievous wounds on their prey; making it easier for their kin to land a killing blow, should the Slasher fail to do so first.
Description[]
The Swine Slasher is Human/Beast enemy that appears in the Warrens. While they have very little in the way of health and status resistances, they possess a rather high protection stat and are capable of inflicting heavy damage to any rank from anywhere with their sole attack; Hook Where It Hurts. In addition to a high crit chance, this attack also moves the Swine Slasher back one rank, making it harder for your front line heroes to deal damage to it. On Veteran and Champion levels, this attack can also inflict a Debuff that will make your heroes more likely to contract a Disease or succumb to Bleeding (keep this in mind when healing with the Occultist). With these attributes, this enemy should be considered a high priority in battle.
