Notes:

• One of the possible bosses for Einherjar - Wing II chambers.
• Can Draw In its current target.
• Uses all the standard Dahak TP moves, including Thornsong and Body Slam. Be very wary of Body Slam (stunnable) and rebuff your melee after Nullsong. Also uses Chaos Blade; be sure to Cursna your melee/mages quickly and cure them up. A Chaos Blade followed by an unstunned Body Slam could result in a wipe.
• Nullsong does damage based on the amount of buffs you have on, possibly suggested not rebuffing people after it. It does somewhere in the neighborhood of 700-1k damage to standard-buffed melees.

Historical Background

In Norse mythology, Tanngrisnir was a fearsome goat that drew Thor’s chariot along with the other goat, Tanngniost. These goats had a special property where if they were killed or eaten, they would be revived intact the next day. Tanngrisnir means “toothgrinder”.
