Karcer is the eighth Eternal of the Underworld. He is one of the three bosses of Tier 3 (along with Drakaina and Tenebris). Karcer has a shield of 10,472 points, which has to be destroyed in 5 minutes by six players before they can finish him. Players must reach Dan 8 before they can challenge him. He wields a pair of scythes as his weapons and fights with him carry random rules.
The players can obtain the keys to fight him by defeating Hoaxen. If the players do not have Karcer keys, they can buy one key for 29 gems.
In battle, Karcer is very aggressive. He has extreme agility, and despite looking fragile, his body is able to withstand strong attacks. He is immune to the Stun enchantment.
After he is defeated, Karcer asks for liberation from the Creator. He sent Karcer many sustenance, yet at the same time giving him infinite hunger.

This will cause a number of bone-like spikes to emerge from below the player, surrounding them and dealing 45 damage to them. Karcer will become immune to melee attacks when leaping forward. The players can dodge this attack by a well-timed jump, rolling forward, or long-step forward. They also can interrupt this attack by throwing any ranged weapon, magic or Charge at Karcer before he reaches the ground. It is counted as a magic attack, therefore it does not deal Head hit.

Trivia[]
- Karcer’s emaciated appearance and constant mention of hunger may mean he represents hunger and famine.
- His name is derived from the Latin word carcer, which means "prison" or "jail cell".
- Karcer wields Hunger Sickles, which have the appearance of oversized Sickles but with functions same to Mowers. Due to its size, it has a greater reach distance than both of the aforementioned weapons.
- He is the first raid-boss to use an unavailable weapon; other raid-bosses use gem weapons obtainable from the shop, and the special event bosses wield special weapons obtainable during their respective events.
- Although Karcer's Hunger Fossils ability is mechanically a magic attack, it may still deal a Critical hit. The only other magic in the game that is capable of dealing a Critical hit is Quantum Leap.
- Despite having the animation of sharp bones protruding from the ground beneath the players, Hunger Fossils mechanics are identical to the Toxic Cloud magic.
- Karcer was the special raid-boss of the 2019 New Year update, where players only need Dan 2 to fight him as opposed to 8. They will receive one key to fight Karcer as a New Year gift, along with Healing Vine and Phoenix Elixirs. Defeating him and reaching first place may reward the player with an item from the New Year 2018 Set.
- Due to a bug on some devices in this 2019 New Year update (version 1.9.38), Karcer had no weapons and his Hunger Fossils ability. He was also depicted with body and head like Shadow, when he has no armor and helm equipped. Karcer only retained his magic and ranged weapon, though only his weapon would lose its enchantment. Additionally, some players did not receive the New Year gift as well. This bug has been fixed after the holidays were over.
