Deviled Egg

The Deviled Egg is a boss from Rosenkreuzstilette that is found in the second Iris stage.

As Spiritia Rosenberg (or Grolla Seyfarth) ventures through the hallways at the end of the stage, a beholder resembling a giant floating eyeball follows her, spying on her and allowing Iris Zeppelin to watch her actions from her residence in her palace ballroom. As soon as she enters the boss stage, a huge metal door appears behind her, trapping her inside as the background outside the palace windows turns red, starting the boss fight.

Pieces of the Deviled Egg's body will fly at the player's character, which she has to jump over or slide underneath to avoid. As soon as its body becomes whole, the monster will open its single eye and fire a single bullet at the player's character. Just like the Yellow Devil, the Deviled Egg's weak spot is also its eye.

Interestingly, like all bosses in Rosenkreuzstilette, the Deviled Egg also has a Desperation Mode of its own. Once half of its health is depleted, it'll start changing the gravity every now and then, flipping everything upside down and vice-versa, and the beholder watching from the background will get slightly bigger. Just like the various previous times the player was flipped upside down due to gravity change, her controls will be reversed, making it harder to dodge the Deviled Egg's attacks until the player is rightside up again.

The Deviled Egg's weakness is against Liebessturm, which is obtained from Liebea Palesch. Liebessturm can be used to defeat it in four hits.

Upon defeat, the Deviled Egg's eye will explode and its body will melt away, while the beholder that was watching burns away at the same time.
