The Elder is a boss that you summon rather than find roaming. Its altar is in the Black Forest, and you call it by placing 3 Ancient Seeds on the altar.

It has 2500 health and is weak to fire. It is immune to chop, pickaxe, poison and spirit damage. It has two attacks. King shoot is a projectile that deals 35 damage to a body at a range of 8.24. King stomp is an area attack that deals 60 damage at a range of 3. It walks at a speed of 5 and runs at a speed of 6.

When it falls, it always drops 1 The Elder Trophy and 1 Swamp Key, each with a 100 percent chance.
