This is my idea for a new boss on Spiral Knights! A boss known as King Hammerthwak the First. He is about three times as tall as the average Spiral Knight. He has the body and arms of a hammer and is completely robotic. He also is portrayed with a crown on his head (of course). His legs are narrow near the body and widen as they go out to the ground. On the side of his head is a smokestack which will show if he is in rage or not. His extremely slow moving is resolved from his ultimate strength and can bash a Spiral Knight into a pancake if caught off guard!
Upon entry to the battlefield: You walk up to the battlefield and notice a small crack in the wall of the very back of the battlefield. You start walking towards it, the boss battle music suddenly plays, the ground starts to shake from a loud wacking noise, and as the crack widens, it breaks in pieces to reveal King Hammerthwak the First! He lets out a robotic roar and suddenly notices the adventurers as they ready for battle!
Before in Rage: King Hammerthwak's smokestack is only emitting smoke and he doesn't move very fast. His main attack that he will use is where he raises one of his hammer arms in the air slowly. This gives the player enough time to dodge the attack in order to not make the boss unfair. Then, he bashes the ground which causes a shockwave to happen in the direction he is facing! You simply need to run behind him or out of the radius of the shockwave in order to stay alive, but be warned! This attack is very powerful and can damage a spiral knight that is not aware of his surroundings! What you have to do in order to hurt him is get him to go under a peculiar, squared shadow. Once he is under it, he will then turn one of his arms around to where it's facing the "blade" looking part of the hammer and hit the ground with it. His arm does get stuck in the ground and it takes time for him to get it back out of the ground. That's when a nearby button is seen. Hit the button, and suddenly a huge cube hits him on the head! He is stunned and many parts of his armor plating come open. This is when he is vulnerable! Attack him with all of your might, for he is always invulnerable whenever he is not stunned! Sooner or later, depending on the star level of your gear, he will finally enter phase two! This is where it starts to get complicating!
In Rage: King Hammerthwak suddenly let's out pressured steam from his smokestack and sounds a whistle which sounds like a train's whistle. That's when he suddenly forms a red aura showing rage around him and his smokestack emits fire instead of smoke!! He moves much faster and starts to use his own head as a weapon! Not only that, but he will also put both of his hammer arms on the ground and the hammer part opens up to disperse Hammerthwaks which are a bit shorter than a spiral knight. These are fairly easy to kill but they do give you quite a lot of crowns (the whole crowns idea can be edited by Three Rings). The attack where he uses his head as a weapon is where he raises it back and then hits the floor with it! The shockwave goes in all directions, but it does finally stop at a certain radius. He'll start using both of his hammers to attack at the same time and walks a bit faster as well. Like last time, get him under the square-shaped shadow where he will be bashed on the head with it by pressing the button. This is your chance to finish him! Once again, your star level of gear will decide when he dies.
When he Dies: It's not over yet!! Once you have defeated him, right before he dies, you must run away from him as far away as possible, because, right before he dies, he goes into a deadly final rage! He does not move from his spot, but he lets out one last robotic roar which gives you plenty of time to run away and then hits the ground as hard as he can, five times as fast as he does in rage! It does not make shockwaves, but if you are caught under one of the hammers, it will kill you instantly!!(Once again, this can be decided by Three Rings). After a while of constantly hitting the ground, he finally raises his arms in the air, starts to fall apart, and finally topples to the ground! Victory!!
The Hammerthwack already release :D
