The Tormented One

The Tormented One, formerly known as Ronn Chambara, is a New God and a boss in Fear & Hunger.

Lore
Before his ascension, Ronn Chambara was a poet obsessed with combining beautiful art with physical suffering. He was a member of the Fellowship alongside Francóis, Nilvan, Valteil, and the Forgotten One.

The Fellowship embarked on their journey to achieve godhood in 809. They entered Ma'habre and used the Throne of Ascension to become New Gods. Chambara became the Tormented One: a skinless figure with chains that torture him over hundreds of years, he extends his suffering to other creatures inside the shrines of Ma'habre - the Red Men are some of his subjects.

After his canonical defeat during the events of Fear & Hunger, the Tormented One resides in the Grand Hall with the other inactive New Gods.

Location & Battle
Chambara appears in the Temple of Torment after the player sacrifices either a husk or a party member.

The husk of your body can be made in a pit of a collapsed roadway in present time of Ancient City, right to the chained angel - throw a stone to test out if it is the right location. The stone should fall somewhere nearby. Jump down, open the shortcut back to the alley on your right, then make your way to a room full of husks. Use the vat with the black liquid oozing out in the cave to make the husk. It will follow you to the Temple of Torment. There is a shortcut to the Temple past the husk room.

Approaching Chambara will instantly trigger the first phase of his boss fight. During the first phase, Chambara can use two different abilities: Pummel and Chains of Torment. Chains of Torment deals the most damage out of all his attacks and inflicts bleeding, but he doesn't use it as often as his other ones.

After sacrificing either a husk or a party member, as well as defeating the Tormented One in his first phase, blood would be flowing through the canals throughout the Temple of Torment which would fill the massive pit at the entrance. Should the player try to exit the Temple, Chambara will rise from the pit of blood, beginning the second phase. During the second phase, The Tormented One wields the Wheels of Torment: three round, metal contraptions with spikes that orbit around Chambara. Each wheel would rotate during Chambara's turn in the boss fight. The wheels can only be stopped for one turn when a character attacks them. Defeating Chambara in this phase will allow the player to obtain the Tormented Soul.

To obtain the skill Chains of Torment, you will have to use the Cube of the Depths and return to present Ma'habre. You can find the dying remnants of the Tormented One in the sacrificial room, and he will impart you with Chains of Torment.

Strategy
The first phase is fairly easy, defeating him would be trivial with a full party. His legs cannot be broken, so it's recommended to target either the arms or the torso.

In the second phase, Chambara will start the encounter similar to the first phase, but he will summon three spinning rings that can be attacked after he has taken enough damage. In this phase, Chambara's 1st wheel has incredibly high evasion. To defeat him, you have to hit the 2nd and 3rd rings in one turn to jam them. These rings have impossibly high HP, so it's not recommended destroying them. Jamming the rings will weaken the Chambara(1st Ring) for two turns.

Trivia

 * Originally, Ronn Chambara and The Tormented One were supposed to be different persons. "...it just made too much sense for them to be the same" - Orange (the game's developer)
 * Ronn's name, coincidentally, has a similar meaning to Ragnvaldr's name. Ronn is another spelling of Ron, which comes from Ronald, which comes from Raghnall, and which comes from Ragnvaldr. Ronn being derived from regin meaning "advice, counsel".
 * The Tormented One and Ragnvaldr share a similar soul type: soul of the tormented.
 * In Fear & Hunger 2: Termina, you can summon him by offering a Dead Crow in the Imperfect Circle.
 * The wheels of torment and its pool of blood are based upon the final boss arena of Silent Hill 4: The Room.
