Bosses

*Hand of Fate 2* contains many bosses, enemies who are highlighted at the beginning of combat by default. These enemies are not usually unique (for an exception, see The World challenge section below and the challenge article, or The Reaper). Instead, they are usually buffed versions of already existing enemy units.

Each of the twenty-two challenges of the main game possesses a boss that must be defeated to win their tokens. In addition, some encounters will have boss-like opponents as well (see Sub-Bosses), as do the Endless Adventures.

Below is a list of all the bosses and sub-bosses of *Hand of Fate 2,* what challenges, encounters, or adventures they are from, what units they are based on, and how they may or may not differ.

## Notes

* Instead of being represented by the same kind of card as his original unit, as had been the case in all challenges before it, the Reaper's card is unique in that it is a Brimstone Assassin of Greed card. In addition, the Reaper himself possesses a design completely different than that of a normal, or even a Brimstone Assassin of Greed.

* The Black Knight is also unique for having a card with his name rather than the unit he was based on, as well changing the design slightly.
