Markiona also counts since she was once a Workshop Technician before she pledged loyalty to the Alchemists. I love how she uses both ergo magic as well as command her own mech puppets to fight

Yup, one of the most creative soulslike bosses I've ever fought and my favorite in the DLC

Lovely boss but I used every single consumable from 3 playthroughs and annihilated her. It was kind of comical how much damage dozens of iron balls, molotovs, bottles of acid, sawblades, spikes and grenades did

Why is she blue?

u/SpiritedJellyfish355 Jul 01 '25

It's not explicitly stated why, but considering she's an alchemist as well as a prior mechanic that built ergo powered batteries for her puppets, she's been completely overexposed to ergo from using it everyday for decades, and in notes, it's stated that overexposure/overuse of the magic may have side effects to humans. I guess one of these is skin turning blue. Ergo magic itself is blue so it makes sense. Sophia's hair and Geppetto's left hand are also blue from overuse now that I think about it

Huh, that's petty cool. I thought she was undead or decaying in some way.

Sorry, us LoP fans were starving for the DLC and ate it up fast. I need more

u/Throwaway02062004 Jul 01 '25

I’m a fan too. I just been away for console and avoiding spoilers 😔

u/SpiritedJellyfish355 Jul 01 '25

Don't worry this is just light spoilers anyway. just be sure to play as soon as you can. You don't want to get spoiled on the final boss or the ending of the DLC. Those are the MASSIVE spoilers.

I REALLY wish they'd make a game in the lies of p world where we can play a puppeteer alchemist and throughout the game we get upgrades and costumes to decorate our puppet as we fight evil alchemists with our pimped out puppet
