Kurt Zisa was created from a machine that turned darkness-infused hearts into Emblem Heartless. It is a brass and iron automaton powered by a spirit of darkness with a glimmer of sentience. It is roughly humanoid in shape: a flexible, segmented iron body with a long neck, protected by thick metal plates. It has six arms attached to its shoulders and hunched back, and piercing white eyes glitter from a cobra-like head. It has sand-colored plates with brass or gold trim, and decorated with gems and tassels. This mighty construct holds a huge crescent blade in each of its center hands, which it can spin to inflict multiple strikes on an opponent. Its lower two hands are used to conjure antimagic orbs, and it uses its upper two arms for balance. The darkness within its shell is simple-minded and emotionless, and easily swayed by powerful evil creatures. As it functions most efficiently in desert climates, Kurt Zisa might be found in the service of an efreeti, mummy lord, or blue dragon; although over the years it has also followed the commands of devils or demons. In combat, Kurt Zisa will lie in wait underneath the desert sand, bursting out when it detects movement within 30 feet. Kurt Zisa assesses if its opponents include spellcasters, and if so begins with silencega; otherwise rising protect. After recovering from risky defense, it will choose the other action. |
