So you made it all the way here...and you wish to defy me? Sadan?!
The audacity! I have been the ruler of these floors for a hundred years!
Sadan is the BOSS of The Catacombs - Floor VI, and as a character appearing in the dungeon journals Aftermath and The Eye.
Title and Description[]
Necromancer Lord
Necromancy was always strong in his family. Says he once beat a Wither in a duel. Likes to brag.
Boss Fight[]
Sadan's fight is similar to that of The Professor and Thorn. It takes place in a large, tall hall with two wings, one of which the players emerge from. When the players enter, 16 dormant Terracottas stand along the hall. Sleeping Golems reside in the main chamber of Sadan's room, and attacking them will turn them into Woke Golems.
Phase 1[]
In Sadan's first phase, he reanimates the Terracottas and uses them to attack the players. The Terracottas have 14M HP (or 250M in Master Mode) and attack with melee and a ranged flower attack. Upon death, they turn into hardened clay blocks, and are revived after a short time. The players must survive until his interest meter depletes. The interest meter takes 1m 45s to deplete. Killing a Terracotta reduces the phase's duration by 1 second. Once Sadan's Interest Level is depleted, the second phase begins.
Phase 2[]
My giants! Unleashed!
Sadan will then unleash 4 Giants hanging in the room, each with 25M HP. Each of them has a unique attack. The Diamond Giant can use the Sword of 10,000 Truths to attack players; Bigfoot can use Stomp, dealing damage to anyone in the vicinity; L.A.S.R. can shoot lasers at players without missing; and the Jolly Pink Giant can toss boulders similar to the Yeti Sword's ability. Players must defeat all 4 Giants to continue to the next phase.
However, In Master Mode, all Giants are mutant, and they deal more damage and have higher health.
Phase 3[]
If only you had become my disciples instead of this incompetent bunch.
Maybe in another life. Until then, meet my ultimate corpse.
A cutscene will play where Sadan will then merge with his "Ultimate Corpse", The Giant One, and become a Giant himself. A hole will open in the center of the hall, and a hook will appear to lift the Giant out. Falling into the hole instantly kills the player who fell in and all Tanks in the team (because of Tanks' passive ability Diversion). After this cutscene, the hole closes, allowing players to safely walk over it again.
Sadan has 40M HP (800M HP in Master Mode) and has all the perks of the previous Giants combined. Players win the fight by defeating Sadan in this Giant form. Unlike the previous giants, The Giant One does not have knockback immunity.
Strangely, his human form appears after the fight instead of dying as a Giant.

Lore[]
- In 1531 AE, after zombies began leaving The Catacombs a human king sent an expedition with 3 mages to investigate. Mages were the Royal Inscriptionist, who kept a four-volume journal about the expedition until his death, Solomon and Sadan.
- During the expedition, Sadan noticed an Eye looking directly at him, but noone else seemed to notice it, so he kept it to himself, since it didn't seem hostile. It appeared 3 times throughout the first and second floor, then disappeared. However on the third floor, he felt a different sensation, he sensed something coming even before more talented Solomon. Sadan managed to escape the massacre caused by the Wither that has appeared and killed General Dan, then he felt the familiar sensation of being watched. He pulled out his sword, asking "What do you want from me?", The Watcher came out of the shadows and questioned him [1]
- Some time after his interaction with the Watcher, he became Necromancer Lord and guarded the Sixth floor of Catacombs. He learned that his parents were powerful in Necromancy, which is why Watcher was interested in him.
- In 1532 AE, he learned that his father was still alive, if you could call it that. He was a member of Necron's Wither Army - Storm. But his father didn't care for him, which made Sadan angry, and he swore that he would develop a technique to surpass even a Wither with his own abilities.
- According to Mort's description of Sadan, he succeeded, but it is unclear if the Wither in question was Storm, his unknown professor or a different Wither entirely.
Trivia[]
- The boss appears to have an egotistical and self-centered nature, possibly caused by his father, Storm not caring about him and him choosing power rather than humanity. He shares his ego with his father, and they both seem to make up with each other when faced with death, as their last words reference each other.
- This boss used to be a part of the Expedition team as one of at least 3 mages. Because his family was skilled in Necromancy, The Watcher saw his potential to be a servant of Necron. In the journal Aftermath, it is said that Solomon (One of the mages on the Expedition team) was also pulled aside by Necron and executed by Storm for him to gain immense power his third wither head.
- The sword that the Diamond Giant wields is actually called Diamante (which translates to "Diamond" in Spanish and Italian).
- His head has the same texture as the Professor's, except recoloured.
- The Terracotta mob is a reference to the terracotta army in the Emperor Qinshihuang's Mausoleum in China.
- The name Sadan could be a reference to the devil, Satan and his number 666. This could also explain why Sadan is the floor 6 boss in the Catacombs.

- ↑ "What are you? Why are you following me?" "Special." the loud noise echoed in Sadan's head. "I’m special? What do you mean?" "Your mind… Hard to read." "Read… My mind?" "Your name." "What, why do you want to know?" "Your parents, who are they?" "I… I never knew them, why are you asking this?!" It asked for [his] name again. As it got closer, [he] could feel its presence intensify. "GET OUT OF MY HEAD, I’LL KILL YOU!" Sadan felt weakened, and collapsed on the ground. "So your name is Sadan, I see..."
