Each creature you meet on your adventures will be added to this book.

<h5 style="text-align:center;">ZAROK SERPENT</h5>

This huge serpentine variant of the twisted madman is almost too horrific to contemplate, but a determined adventurer must of course face up to his responsibilities. Rumours abound that the only way to stun the slithering beast is to attack his hissing mouth. However this is unlikely to be an easy task when the beast is issuing forth devastating shockwaves, spat venom balls, and a writhing uncoiling tail of gargantuan proportions. Do your best dear adventurer to avoid these lethal offerings if you can. Legend has it that the heroic questor must find a way to injure the serpent's tail tip in order to vanquish the beast, but seeing as no would-be assassin has ever before been victorious in such a battle, one can only speculate.

===MELEE COMBAT===

Each of the melee combat weapons has a quick attack {{ResurrectionControls|FA|A}} and a slow attack {{ResurrectionControls|SA|A}}

The quick attack is speedy but produces relatively low levels of damage.

The slow attack takes longer to execute but produces higher levels of damage.

Melee weapons can be utilised whilst in retain mode (hold R). This will allow Dan to maneuver without changing his orientation. In this mode Dan can sidestep, advance or retreat away from his enemy whilst keeping him in his targets, however it should be noted that in this mode Dan's speed is lower than normal combat speed.

See individual weapon handbooks for advanced techniques.

===DARING DASH AND SHIELDING===

=====Shielding=====

Pressing L will put Dan into shielding mode. Shielding reduces the damage that Dan receives from enemies, but also reduces the speed which Dan can travel at. As one of Dan's arms is required to hold the shield Dan is unable to equip two-handed weapons whilst in this mode.

=====The daring dash=====

The daring dash gives Dan a short burst of incredible speed and is performed by pressing the {{B|T}} button. Use this move to disperse groups of enemies by smashing into them, or simply use it to maneuver around the levels at high speed.

When Dan is in shield mode the daring dash turns into a combat move, and hitting an enemy will impart damage on it.

===POWER UP ATTACKS===

Many of the weapons found in Gallowmere have special power up attacks. These devastating moves are accessed by holding down the attack button for a certain length of time before releasing. See the individual weapon handbooks for details.

===RANGED COMBAT===

When Dan is carrying a ranged weapon you will notice that a group of whispy green sprites travel ahead of him. These helpful creatures will seek out Dan's adversaries, and when an enemy comes within targeting range they will excitedly switch to a red colouration.

Certain weapons have both ranged and melee attacks, these include the battleaxe and spear. Experiment with these multifunctional implements to discover their many uses.

See individual weapon handbooks for full control information on ranged weapons.
