The Trickster

The Trickster is an enemy that appears in Cappella Magna, Inlaid Library, Boss Rash, and Carlo Cart.
Trickster's health is based on the player's level, and it is immune to knockback, freeze, and debuffs.
==Instances==
In Cappella Magna, it is guaranteed to spawn at 15:10 as a special event if the player has not yet defeated The Ender. Since it is spawned by a special event instead of being a part of the wave, it cannot appear in Green Acres. After defeating The Ender, it will no longer spawn in this stage.
In Inlaid Library, it appears as a special enemy if the player enters the stage with inverse mode enabled and has defeated The Directer at least once. It is located beside piano due far east of the player's starting location. After unlocking a correlated secret character, this instance of The Trickster will no longer appear in the stage, regardless of conditions being met.
In Boss Rash, it spawns as a wave boss.
In Carlo Cart, it is summoned by the Timed Enemy Spawn map event and spawns as a boss at a later wave, appearing twice in the stage.
==Behavior==
The Trickster periodically summons ellipsoid rings of 48 Poltergeist Gems around the player that self-destruct when approached. The gems lasts for 30 seconds and will not despawn if the player moves away from them. Trickster can also chase and attack the player directly.
The Trickster summons two rings upon spawning and one every 30 seconds thereafter. Trickster randomly summons either a large or a small ring of Poltergeist Gems. The gems in the larger ring remain stationary, however, the gems in the smaller ring will home at the player.
The Trickster is instantly killed upon getting damaged by Pentagram, Gorgeous Moon, Infinite Corridor, Crimson Shroud, Victory Sword, Rosary, or Grenade . If Trickster is defeated with any of the aforementioned weapons and items, a red ghost will appear in the bottom-right corner of the screen, accompanied by a jingle. Trickster also takes 10 times more damage from breaking Stained Glass windows. When The Trickster dies, all remaining Poltergeist Gems explode.
===Inlaid Library===
The Trickster remains stationary but can still perform attacks regardless. Once defeated, the player will be able to access the piano it was sitting by. If the correct melody is played, the player will be transported to a hidden area.
===Carlo Cart===
The Trickster does not perform its usual move of conjuring Poltergeist Gems; instead, it can only attack by directly approaching the player.
