History

The Stained Glass Demon was the master of the Hilltop Mausoleum during Zarok's second conquest of Gallowmere in 1386. It held the Skull Key that opened the Skull Gates leading to the world of the living. It convened with Zarok shortly after Sir Daniel Fortesque's resurrection in order to hatch evil plots.

By the time Sir Dan arrived in the mausoleum, the demon was dormant, its frozen heart resting in the catacombs beneath. After Sir Dan shattered the frozen heart, the demon awoke and fought the knight. It was swiftly defeated and Sir Dan looted the Skull Key from its shattered remains.

Strategy

Most likely, Dan has taken the long road to reach this multicoloured menace. He should have both the Crossbow and the Throwing Daggers in his inventory. Of the pair, the Crossbow is stronger, though not by much. Its semi-auto fire will compensate for the lack of power.

300 HP might not seem like much, but this will be a tough fight out of the gate. The Demon's glass heart is its only weak spot, and it does not expose the heart unless it needs to draw energy in. The demon will jump, strafe, and throw arcing waves of glass shards at Dan that the latter can either deflect, jump over or pass between before the demon tires, at which point it hovers in place to refuel. As its HP drop, it begins to fire streams of glass shards directly at Dan or otherwise attempts to ensnare him in a crushing glass cage, which should be destroyed quickly. Target and strike the exposed heart before it explodes. If Dan runs out of daggers or breaks the Copper Shield, more of each will drop into the arena regularly. Repeat until it falls and shatters. Take the Skull Key it drops, then exit.
