Lord of Pain Valak

Background

Valak roamed around Velder in his heavy armor. In fact, we don't think he takes it off when he showers. He believed everyone was jealous of his powers and keeps it on in order to protect himself if he's ever ambushed. The demon that bonded into the armor has taken over his true personality. His armor can be damaged but his claw can still tear enemies apart. One day, he encountered Edan in the forest and they fought day and night. No one dared enter the forest until the clashing sound of swords stopped. Now... there is a search party looking for Colonel Edan.

Combo Modifications

Valak has access to all of the Reckless Fist combos with the following modifications:

Over Taker's xxvx is converted to a flurry of X-Crash-like claw hits before launching with two Nasod Claw spikes.

Skills

Icon	Skill	Type	Cooldown	Description	Special Effects
	Increased Mana Regeneration	Passive	N/A	Like all NPCs, Valak benefits from a heightened mana regeneration rate.	All NPCs will have an extremely fast passive mana regeneration rate, and will also receive bonus MP when either hitting or being hit by players. Because of this passive, NPC skills are bound only by cooldown and not by their MP cost. Furthermore, NPCs can mana break combos at virtually any time.
	Awakening	Passive	N/A	Valak can activate Awakening under 50% HP.
	Roar	Special Active	N/A	Valak unleashes a mighty roar that manifests itself as a blue aura that rapidly travels across the entire map.	This skill will instantly take away 33% of your HP and 400 MP upon contact. Will hit the entire map, but can be dodged with a well-timed special active. Valak will only use this skill if you have been outside of his vision for a long time (prevents charging MP off-screen).
File:Shadow of Death.png	Shadow of Death	Passive	N/A	Valak's attacks ignore 100% of the target's defense.
	Counter Chance	Passive	N/A	When Valak falls down, he can tap X to sweep his sword in a broad sweeping motion that does not knock down.	Valak will use this skill while you are close by after every knock down; be careful, because he was extremely high attack speed and can activate his counter chance very quickly.
	Spiritualised Fury	Passive	N/A
	Weapon Break	Active	10 Seconds
	Shadow Piercing	Active	N/A
	Ground Break	Active	N/A
	Charged Bolt	Special Active	5 Seconds
	Valkyrie's Javelin	Special Active	10 Seconds
	Wild Charge	Special Active	10 Seconds
	Nuclear	Special Active	30 Seconds

Strategy

Gameplay

Valak was once the Royal Knight of Velder, under Noah's team.
When fighting Spriggan, Valak was able to obtain Spriggan's armor. However, the armor was cursed, controlling Valak and leaving him in a state of extreme eternal pain.
The cursed armor caused him to develop a hatred of the world, believing that everyone should ought to feel the same pain as him.
His attacks, which can pierce all defenses, are called the "Scar of Pain". With this power, he became the Lord of Pain.
