Where The Glutton of Crowns waits
The Glutton of Crowns holds the gates at depths 92,000, 92,600, 93,200, 93,800, 94,400 in The Last Stair, sharing the zone's 100-depth gate rhythm with The Throneguard and The Lord Chamberlain and The Hundredth Step and The Last Herald and The Attainder.
What The Glutton of Crowns is
The Glutton of Crowns is a Brute: it swings a mace, and the body asks for the guard shell, armor against a heavy blow, stalling — it wards off blows from afar and hooks you in. As a boss it wears the type's defences at 35%, carries no status of its own, and enrages below half health: it hits harder and moves faster.
The Glutton of Crowns by the numbers
The card at each gate — health, damage per swing, armour and the modifiers it rolls — straight from the game's spawn table. On the floor the boss leads with 60% of the card's health and 60% of its damage, before the road's own pressure.

Modifiers are rolled per depth and are the same for every player. Bosses always carry at least 3 and never a pace modifier (SWIFT, BRUTE), so a boss's swing rhythm is its own; of the seals only the walls — BLOODLESS, INERT, ASHEN, ETHEREAL, DENSE — ride a boss. The full list is in Enemy modifiers.
At its first gate The Glutton of Crowns leads with 118,696,667,080 health, against 94,955,197,364 for the leader one floor above, and swings every 1.25s.
What a gate floor is
A gate is a floor like any other, with the boss leading its last pack. Nothing below it opens until the floor is cleared. A lost floor costs nothing; you can fight it again. How a floor is fought is under Combat.
