Born from the heart of an awakened Feranmut. A thousand years twisted into shadow. The executors of Sui are never alone, for fear is always by their side; to wait in the boundless chaos, or thread the needle in search for a shred of enlightenment?
A gigantic, ferocious Fabrication made by Ji representing the wrath of Sui, the Slumbering of Sui initially proves to be a terrifying foe with enormously high stats in every regard, making it extremely difficult to take in a straight battle. However, the Slumbering also has multiple vulnerabilities that allow Operators to lower its combat capabilities to a more reasonable level, complicated by its abilities designed to exploit and spread Blight across Farmlands.
The Slumbering starts in the Chaos form with the following traits:
Uses a melee attack.
Every time the Slumbering takes 3 instances of damage (4 at Level 1), it will molt, losing 30 ATK, 50 DEF (40 at Level 2) and 1 RES, but gaining 0.01 MSPD and increasing the Blight of a random Farmland within 1 tile by 4. The Slumbering can molt up to 80 times, and will additionally reduce its Weight by 1 every 10 molts.
When the Slumbering's HP is reduced to 0, it will survive and revive itself over 40 seconds, during which it is invulnerable and disabled. While reviving, the Slumbering will summon 2 Filths every 5 seconds and 1 Scum every 15 seconds.
At Level 1, the Slumbering summons 2 Expelled Filths every 8 seconds (5 seconds at Level 2) and 1 Accursed Scum every 20 seconds (15 seconds at Level 2).
After reviving, the Slumbering enters the Enlightened form, gaining 5 seconds of invulnerability and losing the traits of its Chaos form while gaining the following traits:
ATK, DEF, and RES reduced by 60%, 70%, and 30, respectively.
MSPD tripled.
If the Slumbering is in a Farmland with 0 Blight or one being washed by a Pumping Station, its DEF and RES are additionally reduced by 20% (15% at Level 1) and 30 respectively, and it loses its MSPD increase.
Uses a ranged attack with a range of 1 tiles which hits twice in succession.
Friendly units that damage the Slumbering will be marked by a red aura; if a marked target leaves the map, the Farmland they are on will have its Blight increased by 50.
As Needlework: Should the Farmland where the Slumbering is on accumulate 100 Blight (displayed as a purple bar beneath its health bar), it drains 20 Blight from the Farmland over 5 seconds before creating a giant needle and launches it towards the most recently deployed friendly unit, targeting marked ones over the others, dealing Arts damage equal to 2.5× its ATK (3.75× at Level 2). If the Slumbering creates a needle but no longer has a valid target, it can hold on to the needle and instantly launch it when a target appears.
