Widow (SF2)

Template:BossInfoSF2 Widow is the fifth demon boss in Shadow Fight 2 appearing in Act V: The Greatest Temptation.

Storyline

Act V: The Greatest Temptation

After the defeat of Wasp, Shadow and group continue their journey to get the remaining seals. Sensei tells Shadow that this is not their war but Widow seems to be a worthy opponent and claims that they should pay her a visit. The group then moves on and they eventually meet Widow. Upon eyeing her, Sly and Sensei feels a strong attraction towards her. Sensei, however, is strong enough to resist it. Unusually for Widow however, upon seeing Shadow, who is unaffected by her, she is impressed by him and claims she will keep an eye on him.

The story then goes on where Shadow defeats her bodyguards and eventually battles her and wins for which she hands him the Orange Seal.

Gates of Shadows

Widow and the rest of the demons team up to stop Shadow from closing the Gates of Shadows. She battles Shadow fifth in line.

Interlude Part V

Shadow on his quest to break the seals battles Widow again in Act V of Interlude where she attempts to stop Shadow from reopening the Gates of Shadows.

Personality

Widow is a powerful warrior whose beauty mesmerizes all men who get a glimpse of her. Sly, when he sees her for the first time, becomes infatuated with her and tries getting her gifts like gems and stones. Even Sensei feels a pull but his years of martial arts mastery and discipline keeps him from the temptation. Widow's first four bodyguards were in fact suitors enthralled by her charm. They fight Shadow because they think he was trying to get Widow's attention. The only man unaffected by her beauty was Shadow himself. Widow is never easily pleased, however Shadow does catch her eye. She is not as aggressive as most other demons.

Bodyguards

Widow's "bodyguards" are mainly men that have been charmed. The only exception is Puma, a woman who serves Widow to help her achieve her ambitions. Most bodyguards attack Shadow in an attempt to eliminate the competition, because they are mistaken in the belief that Shadow desires Widow as they do; he merely wants to obtain her Demon Seal, and has no interest in her.

When fought in Gates of Shadows and Interlude, she uses Assassin's Dagger and Ice Pillar.

Perks and Enchantments

• Teleportation

Widow has the ability to teleport by which she disappears in the cyan beams coming from her fans and shows up attacking from the back. It can be easily dodged by back-handspring or a well-timed roll. Player also can interrupt the attack by hitting Widow before she finishes her teleport. Widow uses this perk only after losing once.

• Lifesteal

Widow's Fans and ranged weapons are enchanted with Lifesteal, giving Widow a chance on every successful hit to replenish her health by 250% of the damage dealt to her enemy.

• Regeneration

Widow's armor and helm are enchanted with Regeneration, giving a chance to regenerate 4.5% of her health for 5 seconds after being hit. Appears after Widow losing twice.
