Father Hugo

Father Hugo is an optional boss enemy encountered in Fear & Hunger 2: Termina.

Lore
tba

Location
He can be found by reaching the orphanage, at the end of the 2nd floor.

Combat
Father Hugo can use the skill Pyromancy Trick up to twice per turn (once per arm). At some point in the fight after round one, a message will appear saying "Father Hugo wants to take off his clothes." After this point the screen will fade to black, and Father Hugo will turn into his naked character model, at which point his penis becomes a potential target. On his next turn after taking his clothes off, he will cast Scorched Earth. After casting Scorched Earth, he is also capable of using an arm to cast Combustion, which deals far more damage, especially after Scorched Earth. Combustion has a one-turn charge where one of his arms will start twitching, in a dialogue box description. In addition to constant fire damage to all characters (and all of Father Hugo's limbs), Scorched Earth will also destroy both book shelves in the room, and the chest next to him, but nothing beyond the room the fight is taking part in. Pyromancy Trick will do more damage during this phase of the fight. If both arms are removed, he will use Tackle.

Strategy
Both of Father Hugo's arms will cast Pyromancy Trick on every turn of the fight. If a player can't confidently take him down quickly, it's recommended to take one arm out as early into the fight as you can. Once Father Hugo takes his clothes off, Scorched Earth will do damage every turn to every character in the party, as well as each of Father Hugo's limbs. This damage hurts Father Hugo more than the characters themselves. It is unknown if targeting his penis during the fight impacts the fight at all, but isn't necessary to kill him. It is recommended to equip your strongest fire-resisting armor prior to this fight, as Scorched Earth is unavoidable.

If one can hit the head with a spell or getting lucky, they can one shot Father Hugo and end the fight quickly.

Trivia

 * In an earlier design, the undressed version of Father Hugo was supposed to have a Fallen Cherub's face popping out from his left side, on the ribs -- implying more horrific deeds done in the Orphanage in the name of Sylvian.
