Fellow Disciple

Sword Demon.

To be a little more precise, he's exactly what the name says: a Sword Demon.

The ghost of the sword.

A bizarre thing that exists and doesn't exist at the same time.

The Sword Demon, who appears more often the more I invest in a sword build, tormenting me with talk of tests and whatnot.

But if he were nothing but trouble, no one would ever choose a sword build.

Though the Sword Demon may wreck your party and sometimes even ruin your game, he's not a bad guy.

No. Rather than bad, it'd be more accurate to call him a lunatic.

He's a classic high-risk, high-reward enemy, after all.

Win or lose, he always leaves you a present...
