Nas'hrah

Nas'hrah is an unique encounter and possible ally in Fear & Hunger. In Fear & Hunger 2: Termina he can accompany the player, making small comments and giving titbits of advise. Despite his continual presence he does not count as party member.

GRAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH IM CUMMMING!@!!!!!!!!!!!!
"I have become the destroyer of arteires, destroyer of world"

Lore
"'Gotta have them ribs, and pussy too!' - Nas'hrah." Nas'hrah, the self-proclaimed "doom and terror of modern man". He is an extremely powerful wizard studied in blood magic. The Yellow Mages seem to be his followers, as well as followers of Gro-goroth.

He preceded Valteil in the grand libraries, but was betrayed by the other new Gods, and wants to enact revenge upon them. When confronting three of the four other Gods, Nas'hrah will have dialogue expanding upon the lore of the game, mocking their pitiful attempts at ascension.

Location & behaviour
Nas'hrah is a floating, black haired, disembodied head with a thick moustache.

He can be found in the Level 2 Blood Pit early in the game by searching the piles of bodies. The game will warn the player about having a "bad feeling about this". Continuing will make Nas'hrah appear, complain about the player disturbing his sleep, and initiating a battle.

Strategy
Although Nas'hrah has an HP pool (9000 HP~), there is no in-game method to defeat him or his Ancient Demon (who also has the same amount of HP).

At the start of the fight, the wizard will begin cackling and summoning a massive monster which takes four turns to arrive and then instantly kills the player on the fifth turn. This outcome can be avoided either by escaping (as the wizard does not chase the player) or recruiting the wizard.

If the player runs away, Nas'hrah will disappear and will be gone for the remainder of the playthrough.

Recruitment
If the player (or a party member) has the Eclipse Talisman (obtainable from Yellow Mages) equipped, along with having the Cube of the Depths in possession and having visited Ma'habre, (As of July 2, 2023 I've recruited the beheaded mage without visiting Ma'Habre, I was the Merc, ran straight to Le'Garde, got to Cube and Tailsman from the Cavedwellers and went back to recruit the beheaded mage without visiting Ma'Habre) the wizard can be recruited by talking each turn as he notices the talisman. (Note that the talisman can be given to any party member and he will still acknowledge it). Correctly answering his questions without antagonizing him and by answering 'I feel like there is something greater waiting in the depths...' when prompted will make Nas'hrah sympathize with the player's boldness when facing certain doom, and, at the last moment, he will comment about the cube. If the player then agrees to kneel before him, the battle will end with Nas'hrah joining the party.

Nas'hrah cannot carry any equipment, does not need to eat since he lacks a body, and cannot die, always staying alive with 1 HP. He knows all the damaging spells that stem from greater blood magic - Pyromancy trick, Hurting, and Black orb.

Having Nas'hrah in your party unlocks unique dialogue options throughout the game based on the events encountered.

Attempting to use the bonesaw on him will prompt an option with only one choice besides the backing out, labeled as "...", which only results in a message elaborating there is nothing to cut.

Nas'hrah will complain and threaten the player if they  use the Pheromones spell on him, though it will still work.

Special interaction - Show love
If the player tries to show love to Nas'hrah, he'll comply, saying, "Why of course", the chosen party member will start performing fellatio on Nas'hrahs bloody tendril before turning into a Marriage. If you show love again while being a marriage you'll become an Abominable Marriage.

Special interaction - Sacrifice
If the player tries to sacrifice Nas'Hrah on Ritual Circle, a special event occurs. He'll start yelling on player, "Sacrifice me? SACRIFICE ME?!", burning the player instantly, saying "Let's make a sacrifice for the fire god himself!!."

Special interaction - Gro-goroth
If the player brings Nas'hrah to the Altar of Darkness without the Girl, they will face off against Traces of Gro-Goroth. Nas'hrah will start insulting the Old God, looking forward to his destruction, and, after a few lines of dialogue, Gro-goroth will obliterate Nas'hrah before he can even finish talking. The fight then begins, with one less party member. This illustrates how immeasurable the power of the old gods is compared to the new ones.

Dungeon Nights
Nas'hrah also appears in the easter egg game mode Dungeon Nights. He's one of the main characters in the plot and he serves a role as a teacher. He keeps his arrogant personality and has a vast knowledge about story, magic and geography.
