”

A Reaper whose true form lies beyond the edge of sanity. Bearing the power to alter reality itself, it exists to confuse and disorient, and feeds on the mental anguish inspired in its victims. When robbed of its ability to beguile, however, it falls prey to the very fear and bewilderment it causes in others, its very sense of self overridden by sheer panic.
— Ars Gouda, p. 114

The Maddener is an enemy that makes its first appearance in Holy Forbidden as a special enemy, and in Cappella Magna, Boss Rash, and Carlo Cart as an event or boss enemy.

Maddener's health is based on the player's level. It is immune to knockback, freeze, instant kill and debuffs.

Instances[]

In Holy Forbidden, it appears a special enemy with a unique behavior in contrast to its other instances.

In Cappella Magna, it is guaranteed to spawn at 0:10 as a special event if the player has not yet defeated The Ender. Since it is spawned by a special event instead of being a part of the wave, it cannot appear in Green Acres. After defeating The Ender, it will no longer spawn in this stage.

In Boss Rash, it spawns as a wave boss.

In Carlo Cart, it is summoned by the Timed Enemy Spawn map event and spawns as a boss at a later wave, appearing twice in the stage.

Behavior[]

Holy Forbidden[]

See Holy Forbidden#Waves

Maddener appears in its alternative form, seemingly summoning other enemies and attacking the player in a special sequence. At the end, Maddener will directly attack the player, instantly killing them if they come in contact. If the player collects the Rosary at the end of the stage, the Maddener's true form is revealed, and it runs away.

Cappella Magna and Boss Rash[]

A weakened version of Maddener spawns in Cappella Magna and Boss Rash, with less health and movement speed. Other than its ability to change the appearance of some enemies while it is alive in Cappella Magna, it behaves similarly to the Stalker, chasing the player around and dealing massive damage on contact.

Carlo Cart[]

The Maddener behaves similarly to its counterparts from Capella Magna and Boss Rash; attacking by directly approaching the player. Other than its attack pattern, it does not change enemies' appearances and has a health-scaling equivalent to its Holy Forbidden counterpart.
