Neclord (Suikoden II)

Neclord (ネクロード, Nekurōdo) is a boss enemy which appears in Suikoden II.

Information
Neclord can be fought twice, although only the first and third encounters are plot critical. Neclord is first encountered in the ruins of North Window and will be fought by the party in an unwinnable encounter. This encounter will prompt Viktor to retrieve the Star Dragon Sword from the Cave of the Wind.

Later in the game, should Nanami and the hero attempt to abscond from their responsibilities by traversing the Tinto Mines, Neclord will encounter and fight the party there. This encounter is unwinnable, and the game will continue after the party's defeat.

Neclord will be fought in the church in Tinto City, as part of the New State Army's efforts to relieve the city. As with the battle against Neclord in Suikoden, he must be struck first by Viktor in order to make him susceptible to battle damage.

In terms of abilities and strength, Neclord is a powerful all-round combatant, and an unprepared party may even find themselves in danger of being wiped out.
