Hydra is a non-fightable Abnormality that can be encountered in Abnormality events in the Mirror Dungeon.

Appearance

Hydra takes the form of seven crazed surgeon heads with extensive fleshy necks coming together at the base of a large stethoscope. Two smaller stethoscopes extend out from the sides. Behind the Abnormality's front lies a large, strong light which the creature appears to be attached to. The surgeon's heads and necks, as well as the stethoscope base, are messily slathered in blood.

Story

Mirror Dungeon Event

---

This place resembles the operating room of an abandoned hospital.

A few clangs and rumbles later, a blinding white light flashed the eye.

The light is soon blocked by a being with multiple heads.

Those heads were all wearing masks and surgical caps, facing me at the same time.

'Ah, a patient's here.'

'Right, a patient's here.'

'The patient needs curing.'

'Where?'

'The abdomen?'

'The legs?'

'No, the head. The frontal lobe.'

Each head gives its opinion as they prepare for surgery.

Accept the surgery. Run a Sloth & Gloom Advantage check to gain a Keywordless E.G.O Gift. Who should do it?

'They will be on good terms with the other patients.' 'It won't hurt; the anesthetics are plenty.' We suffered many wounds on the way here, big and small. Whether it's the body or the mind, wounds need to be treated in time. If it's allowed to develop into a scar, it will not go away for certain. The Selected Identity healed for 20 HP. The Selected Identity lost 30 SP! E.G.O Gift Painkiller Earned! Check Failed Even the most skilled doctor can't turn every operation into a success. So it's natural for failure to be present even with multiple of them. What can we do about it? We'll have to bear the pain and limp our way back, as we always have. The Selected Identity took 30 HP and SP damage! E.G.O Gift Painkiller Earned!

Break the light and run away. With a shattering noise, the room went dark. Having spent all its life under the intense white light, it was helpless against a mere blackout. Nothing happened.
