Hell raiser

The Hell raiser is a monster in the series.

Characteristics edit

Hell raisers are squat undead priests with dark indigo skin, solid yellow eyes, along with skin and fins around their face that are also coloured yellow. Their lower canine fangs are displayed prominently from their yellow mouths. They wear purple robes with magenta collars and hats in the same colour, carrying tall rods topped with rings. The hell raisers are able to use these rods to channel lightning and they are also able to revive their fellow monsters with the Zing spell. Although the priests have not made a reappearance in the main series, they have made regular appearances in spinoff games.

Trivia edit

  • Hell raiser's original localised name and Japanese name Karon (カロン) is a reference to Charon, the ferryman of the river Styx in Greek mythology, who rowed the shades of the dead in the underworld.
  • A Hell raiser (also spelled hellraiser) is someone who engages in wild, uncontrollable behavior. Its name is a play on its ability to raise monsters from the dead.
