Azi Dahaka

Azi Dahaka is a monster briefly seen in Part 1 of Monster Girl Quest: Paradox before making her first real appearance in Part 2.

Biography
Azi Dahaka is part of the Black Alice faction. She briefly appears with several other powerful monsters in part 1 after Luka shows up on the doorstep of Puppeteer Tower, but doesn't act in any way. She shows up late into the second part of Paradox after Luka and party defeat Queen Alraune.

She's revealed to be responsible for the brainwashing that also started to affect Fairy's Island, and fight the group on the spot after presenting herself. Once beaten, she ominously states that it's only the beginning of her lord's tea party.

Monsterpedia Entry
''“A legendary evil dragon that existed in ancient times. The strength of snake and dragon monsters flows through her body, granting her tremendous power. She also has excellent magical power and is particularly skilled with demon eye techniques. With the help of Black Alice, she has been returned to this world for the first time in hundreds of years. Following her orders, she has brainwashed Queen Alraune and the plant monsters in the World Tree.''

''She has a brutal personality, and enjoys tormenting defeated challengers. In addition to using the snakes on her body to caress the man’s penis, she may force him into the vagina of her large body. Once inserted into Azi Dahaka, the man will taste intense pleasure as his semen is drained by her vagina. This harsh mating will continue until the man is exhausted.”''

Strategy
She's not exceptionally strong, but can prove troublesome for an unprepared party. High evasion is the best way to avoid damage, as her fang attacks can one-shot a party member. Having high willpower to reduce the damage from her auto-hit attacks is also helpful.

On the offensive side, pleasure attacks with related status effects can trivialize the fight should one get lucky with their status ailments. As usual, having a white mage on healing duty is a good solution to keep your party going.

Evaluation
"Why is Aži Dahaka there...? Why are you fighting a Yoma that's already dead... Aži Dahaka has a powerful Fire and Ice Breath attacks. She also has very high attack power so she is a threat to be reckoned with. Refrain from using the Fire and Ice elements since she's strong against them. She is however weak to Pleasure so make sure to use that to your advantage. Now go, oh Brave Luka. The brainwashing of Queen Alraune... Sounds like a familiar story."
