Elite Guards

The elite guard is a stronger variant of the prison guard. It is one of the first foes you can encounter in the dark halls of Fear & Hunger and is one of the first few monstrosities you will eventually have to kill.

Location
Can be found early in the game, as it is wandering within the level 1 area of the dungeons of Fear and Hunger.

Strategy
Same strategy as fighting with the normal Prison Guards, except they are stronger and more durable than the normal Guards found wandering the dark halls of Fear and Hunger.

They too have the coin toss ability of Mad Dash. Be sure to not get caught up in it.

Execution sequence
Has a special execution scene if defeated by them. Rarely triggered though.

If triggered, the Elite Guard will take the unconscious player character to a secret room and begin the sequence of the gruesome death that the player will see. The Menu options will be disabled and the creature will then continuously pummel the player character in the face over and over again with its morning star mace, laughing sadistically while it does so. The player has the option to move and can reach the door to the room, only to find it locked. The door was simply a false hope given to the player, a taunt to them, as their last moments are filled with agony by the pummeling of the monster's mace on their heads and faces.
