Anastasia, Tarnished-Eater

The knife-wielding Ogress Anastasia, known to have eaten countless Tarnished while disguised as a Finger Maiden.

Deals Standard damage. Attacks only with her Butchering Knife. Uses Wild Strikes in her first & second invasion. During her third invasion, she uses Prayerful Strike. Parryable: Yes (excluding jumping attacks). She is resistant to Slash damage, but vulnerable to Strike and Pierce damage. Like most Invaders, Status Effects are a viable option, including Death Blight. Game versions 1.05 may experience issues with triggering Anastasia invading (commonly her 2nd & 3rd invasions), as well as several other invasions. Thankfully, NPC invasion bugs have been properly fixed in the 1.05 update. Wears the Finger Maiden Set. Likely a not so subtle reference to the recurring Butcher NPCs found in other Souls titles, with many serving as invaders, such as Maneater Mildred and Melinda the Butcher.
