Korax
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Korax is the second Serpent Rider and the final boss of the computer game Hexen. He has six arms, red eyes, a vicious-looking face, and a long tail. He has 5000 hit points, and he is a slow moving monster, despite his danger level.
Korax is a challenging opponent. He can shoot six projectiles at once, usually the same projectiles fired by other enemies, such as ice shards, Chaos Serpent Fireballs, etc. He also has the ability to manipulate the field around, and can cause floors to sink into lava, summon fireball shooters, and even send spikes rising from the ground. Finally, at the last section, Korax will teleport around, making defeating him more difficult.
After he takes enough damage in the first room, he teleports away and sends waves of enemies against the player. The player must eliminate these before the door will open and lead them to Korax again.
When Korax finally dies, several spirits (the same ones from the Wraithverge) will burst out of his stomach and roam around, and the exit portal leading to the end of the game will be opened.
Korax's name is derived from Corvus corax, the scientific name for the Common Raven. The C in corax is replaced with a K.
