Daji

Daji is one of the antagonist of the Collab Scenario. She comes from Shrift with Kazuya and Lampas. She spends most of the collab impersonating the White Rabbit to lure the hero to the Château des Romances

Biography
As the White Rabbit, she appears in front of the different heroes to reveal the reason they've been brought to this world. However, in the process, she accidentally let slip to Kazuya that she knows he is able to use magic again, hinting the man of her true identity.

She reveals herself in chapter 12 when, still disguised as the White Rabbit, she invites the party to enter a specific room where the White Rabbit is sleeping. Warned by Kazuya, Luka declines and the kitsune finally reveal herself to engage the party in a fight.

Once beaten, she says she will now stay out of their business and neither attack the party nor support her against the Nightmares swarming in. The party is then bailed by Tamamo or Raphaela depending on the Route.

After the reinforcement has cleared the Nightmares, they bid their farewell to Daji and the kitsune seemingly disappear.

She reappears later in Yamatai Village, as the village chieftain asks for help against the rumored powerful yoma. The party notices a Spirit Fox who confirms them that Daji was indeed close by. The party then notices a fox statue, and reveals Daji by stomping her tail. The kitsune revealed that she was attempting to "sneak some bites" on the villagers and forces the party to fight her once again. After beating her, she threatens to show her real power, but Kazuya convinces her to stand down and to join the party.

She then reveals that she was the one who gave out Mukuro's design to Black Alice when the latter approached her, so that Kagetsumugi could mass produce the dolls.

Strategy
A relatively standard boss battle both times, she is overall a tough opponent thanks to her several auto-hit attacks as well as her numerous status effects. Bringing monsters resistant to pleasure will prevent the battle from becoming a total slog, and have one of them on full-time healing duty is an imperative as her auto-hits are painful.

On the offensive side, most status effects are useless. The most effective one is "stop", with only a 25% chance of working. The best way to take her down is explore her weakness to wind, which is why overall bringing a succubus or two can make this fight much,much easier.
