"Now let the crimson bindings finish what they once began. My penance is far from over!"

**Eviterno** is a boss from Blasphemous 2. He is the leader of the Archconfraternity and also the first among all the penitents. He can be found at the top of the Crimson Rains and he's also the penultimate boss of the game. A formidable opponent, being a boss with two phases.

His second phase features him wielding Crisanta's crimson sword.

## Behaviour and Tactics

**Crimson Fury** - A three attack combo, consisting of a dashing attack, a sweeping slash, and then a sword drag attack that causes crimson waves to come from the ground on either side of Eviterno. The sweeping slash can be parried, causing Eviterno to be staggered and allowing for a punish. This is the only move that can be parried during the entire fight.

**Crimson Projectile Sweep** - Eviterno will teleport away from the Penitent One, doing a sweeping slash and causing a crimson projectile to come towards the Penitent One. Depending on the distance between him and the Penitent One, Eviterno can sweep twice if the Penitent One is closer to him. Upon phase 2, this behavior will change, and the first sweep will always immediately be followed up by a Great Crimson Cleaver.

**Crimson Flame Eruption** - Depending on the distance (about half the arenas length), Eviterno will leap towards the Penitent One, and upon landing will strike his sword on the ground, causing small pillars of crimson flames to come out of the ground.

**Great Crimson Cleaver** - Eviterno will teleport midair, above the Penitent One, and will gather energy around the sword, causing a massive cleaver to appear on the tip of the sword, which will cover nearly the entire arena. This cannot be blocked.

**Airborne Crimson Fury** - This starts out with a dash attack, similar to the regular version of crimson fury, only Eviterno will go airborne. He will then do a small cleaver attack, and then a crimson flame eruption.

**Wrath of the Archonfraternity** - The ultimate attack of Eviterno and the start of phase 3, Eviterno will thrust the crimson bound sword into the ground while yelling "Archicofradía!". The arena will go black and the first penitent to appear is Orospina, doing an empowered thrust across the arena from left to right which is immediately followed by Lesmes who thrusts his weapon into the ground, causing three sets of pillars of flames to erupt from the ground. This will be followed by Infanta sending her living blades towards the Penitent One from the upper left. Afterwards, Benedicta will appear on the far right and summon a row of gazebos from above which must be dodged between. Odón will soon drop down on the left and do an upwards stamp across the arena. Finally, Eviterno will appear, and do a great crimson cleaver at the center of the arena, thus ending the attack.

**Waves of Crimson** - An exclusive third phase move, Eviterno will do the crimson waves part of the crimson fury attack immediately without doing the combo. This attack can be done multiple times in a row.
