Gwenivar specializes in trickery and confusion-based attacks to trip you up, and is one of few Archangels with two distinct "phases". In her "happy" phase she'll use either BE rAnDoM!! or Clown For Help as part of her turns, the latter of which summons up to two Charlequins to back her up. After reaching half health, Gwenivar will change appearance somewhat and enter her "sad" phase, immediately using Crumble followed by Waterworks. This combination can seriously pummel the player depending on where in the turn order it occurs, or if you had just put up walls for an impending Angelic Attack.

PronounsShe/Her
Incarnation ofIllusion

Ringmistress of Illusion, Gwenivar, is A22 of the Archangels, manifesting as Gwen and operates Brightside Pier. She appears in the Pier of the Unknown DLC as the final encounter.

She takes the form of a blue, abstract clown, with a floating torso with needle-like neck and wears a clown's hat and a mask with a happy clownish expression, with one limb being a butterfly wing while the other is a elongated arm with a hand attached to it. Halfway through the battle, the elongated arm will take on a chakram-like appearance and her mask will change to a sad expression.

Because of her love of humans, she takes a human form known as Gwen.
