Nightmare Katrien

Information	Information
Appearances	Abyss Odyssey
Level 	30
Nightmare Katrien is one of the three main Nightmare characters. Encountered as a mini-boss at the end of some levels, her defeat will reward the player with a special skill, a weapon, the unlock of the Ghost Monk, or if captured, her soul. Apart from being larger, slower, and stronger than Katrien, Nightmare Katrien has a nearly identical moveset, with the only differences being the latter does not have swappable special abilities.
Nightmare Katrien wields one-handed swords like Katrien, but cannot swap them out when a new sword appears.
== Biography ==
Katrien was a woman who knew the Warlock before he fell asleep. After escaping from a rogue warlock's lair, the Warlock came upon the town that her family, the Janssens, lived in. They descended from pirates, and while they are ashamed to admit it, Katrien embraces it, mastering the art of fencing. This attracted the Warlock to her.
One night, Katrien discovers the Warlock's dark tome that he stole from the rogue warlock. She visits the chapel, presumably to divulge his dark arts to the clergy. The Warlock, knowing this could be the end of him, devises a spell to make Katrien forget about his craft. When she doesn't wake up, he realizes he has failed, and inadvertently murdered his beloved. He decides to escape the waking world and gives himself up to his nightmares, creating the Abyss and resurrecting Katrien along with it.
Although she is long dead, the memory of her remains with the Warlock, and just like the creatures in the Abyss, she has been summoned into reality. Katrien now fights to save Chile from the nightmares, and to stop the Warlock.
