The Lamb is the recurring special event raid-boss of the Ritual Battles event, encountered on the first floor of the Underworld. In his current and latest reprise, he has a shield of 5,853 points which must be destroyed within 8 minutes and 10 seconds by 4 players before they can defeat him.
Every each season of the Ritual Battles event has a distinct appearance for The Lamb. His appearance ties in with the Ritual Battles event's current theme. Except for the very first event, which isn't themed after a specific Eternal, the theming of these events is based on several Eternals that are included in the event's storyline, which now includes Volcano, Fungus, and Karcer.
Story[]
The Lamb is a shaman and the head of the cult that lives in the Underworld. In order to prevent the Eternals from descending to Earth, he and his followers have dedicated their lives to keeping an eye on the infernal deities. To placate and amuse the spirits of an upset Eternal, they carry out their duty by engaging in ceremonial combat.
At first glance, The Lamb's impression appears arrogant and scornful, since he was immediately upset and underestimated Shadow during their first meeting, saying that he does not appear to be as great as the stories claim. Upon his defeat at the hands of Shadow, he displays a more amiable demeanor and sense of sportsmanship, praising Shadow for his prowess. The Lamb gradually warms up to Shadow following their further encounters, as Shadow helps him with the cult's problems, discarding his derisive attitude and exposing a more straightforward yet honest nature.
The Lamb's uncompromising and proud exterior belies a profound concern and care for his followers and the safety of the world. He is driven by the firm belief that the importance of the cult's activities is the only thing standing between the world and the wrath of enraged Eternals.
