Notes:

• One of the possible bosses for Einherjar - Wing I chambers.
• Can Draw In its current target.
• It can be bound via Regurgitation and possibly Bind.
• Uses normal Orobon attacks.

• Uses a dangerous special TP move called Seismic Tail, which can be stunned if you are quick. It does approx. 800 dmg/knockback. It can be absorbed by Utsusemi sometimes.
• When it uses a TP move it will use it three times in a row, One stun during the three consecutive TP moves seems to stop all from occurring.

• Black Magic was unresisted, and seemed to be the most reliable source of damage.

Historical Background

In Germanic folklore, Hakenmann is an evil water spirit which would use a long hook to pull children into the water, after which they would never be seen again. Hakenmann is German for “hook man”.
