"Metallic groans echo from the depths..."
Champion of Will is a post-Moon Lord miniboss.
Summoning
Champion of Will does not spawn on its own and must be summoned by the player by using the Sigil of Champions while in the Ocean biome.
Attacks
Champion of Will’s attacks are all loosely based on the Force of Will’s enchantments.
Expert Mode
Only gains boosted stats.
Eternity Mode
- Its bomb attack now creates a rather small razorblade arena border, which lingers until it shoots another bomb.
- Its third phase transition spawns 8 spears instead of 6.
First phase
Champion of Will follows a set pattern, repeating after completing the final attack:
- Launches a bomb that creates 2 lingering deathrays in a cross shape at its position.
- Performs 4 diagonal dashes towards the player, which it also does in between all its other attacks.
- Spawns a group of spears above itself, which launch themselves at the player after a brief delay.
- Breathes a stream of slightly homing fireballs while staying next to the player.
Champion of Will goes into phase 2 after reaching 66% health.
Second phase
At the start of this phase, Champion of Will encases itself in an invincible gold shell for 8 seconds and shoots a x-cross deathray bomb, then spawns 6 spears that close in the player in a circle pattern around them. It will do this seven times before it uncases itself.
Once it becomes vulnerable, the Champion’s 1st phase attacks are improved as follows:
- Its bomb is improved, also shooting several razorblades that circle around the bomb’s former location while moving outwards, both clockwise and counter-clockwise.
- Now spawns even more spears, shooting each group in quick succession.
- Its fire breath attack is accompanied with a giant orbital deathray that strikes at the player’s current position, telegraphed by a warning beam.
Champion of Will goes into phase 3 after reaching 33% health.
Third Phase
Champion of Will performs the same actions as it did while entering its second phase, then resumes the attacks, which are also further improved.
- Its charges now create two short-lived trails of stationary fireballs.
- Its bomb shoots another denser, but slower wave of razorblades.
- Now spawns even more spears.
- Its fire breath is accompanied with even more deathrays, each appearing in quick succession.

- The spear attacks that take place during its invulnerability phases are a reference to Undyne the Undying, from Undertale.
