HEADLESS
Man, what a terrifying mini-boss this one is. You encounter Headless several times throughout Sekiro, and each time it’s a literal nightmare. Headless emits an aura that slows you down to a crawl, which makes dodging its deadly and hard-hitting attacks very difficult. It also inflicts Terror, and incurring too much of it means instant death. FromSoftware also cruelly decided to have some fun by putting one of these bosses in a branching optional path pretty early on in the game- but that’s FromSoftware for you, I guess.
