The Brimstone Ramparts
Band A · The Land of the Dead · depths 801–900
Enemies of The Brimstone Ramparts
A floor of this zone is a road of packs drawn from these 9 monsters, led by the depth's named one. Their numbers climb with depth, not with the name. Every 100th depth is a boss gate, and the boss leads that floor instead.
The zone's element is fire: every monster's blow is a mix of damage types and carries a share of it — most of a Mage's blow, a sixth or so of everyone else's beside their type's own. Each name reads as a type — what every type carries and asks of you is under the Bestiary.

The depth's card
The card of a few depths across the zone, as the game rolls it: the numbers every body of that floor is built from. The leader carries 80% of the card's health and 60% of its damage, with the card's modifiers; the pack's bodies carry a share of it without them. Modifiers are rolled per depth; the ones shown are what that exact floor's leader carries.
What those modifiers do
BARRIERED- Opens behind a barrier worth 25% of its health
FROSTBOUND- +75% cold resistance (capped at 75%)
SHOCKING- +35% shock chance; a quarter of its physical damage becomes lightning
OF PRECISION- the pack within 4.5 tiles crits 15% more often
UNWOUNDABLE- your bleeds and poisons on it do not stack: one at a time
OF HASTE- the pack within 4.5 tiles moves and swings 30% faster
SWIFT- Swings on a 28% shorter interval — the same damage arrives as more, smaller hits
SUNDERING- every blow cuts your armor by 30% for 4 s
OF CHILLING DEATH- leaves a pool of frost where it falls
BRUTE- +30% health and +10% damage, but swings 35% slower — rare, heavy slams
BURNING- +35% ignite chance; a quarter of its physical damage becomes fire
REGENERATING- Heals 1% of its maximum health every second
Every modifier, with the rules for how many a floor can carry, is listed under Enemy modifiers.
Boss
Warden of the Wall holds the gate at depth 900. A boss's card carries more health and damage than the depth's regular monster; the exact numbers are on each boss's page.
