Ansuul the Tormentor

Ansuul the Tormentor is a Gloam Knight who appears throughout Sanity's Edge as the main antagonist. She is a creature of nightmare who is attempting to break free of her prison within an artifact known as the Dreamstone. To achieve this, she has taken control of Warlock Vanton's mind and is attempting to break through into Tamriel. You must enter Vanton's dreamworld to defeat Ansuul and save him.

Ansuul appears throughout the trial as a projection, either to speak directly to your group or as part of one of Vanton's fragmented memories of his dealings with the creature. She can also be observed as a giant red specter in the sky above the surreal landscapes within Sanity's Edge, observing your group from above.

You will face her within The Twisted Memory, the final section of the trial, where she serves as the final boss.

While she's summmoning one of the three mazes, Ansuul charges up a blast in a massive cone in front of her. The group must run to the opposite wall to avoid staning in the blast radius. The blast is a one-hit KO.

Neural Takeover

If you don't stop Ansuul from convincing Vanton to give in during the maze segment, your group is destroyed.

Death Recap Tips

• Neural Takeover: Ansuul is tormenting Vanton through his desires. You must reach Vanton before his mind is corrupted.
• Neural Takeover: Send a team of four onto the mind stage to defeat Vanton's delusional state and prevent him from becoming totally corrupted.
• Defeat Fragments before your party is overwhelmed.
• Stepping into Anxiety's Grip will slow your movement, causing you to be more vulnerable to other attacks.
• After being banished by Manic Phobia you must overcome your personal demon before approaching Ansuul.

Dialogue

If you idle before combat:

Ansuul the Tormentor: "You think you can save Vanton? What's left to save?"

Combat begins:

Ansuul the Tormentor: "You won't save Vanton. He's already falling."

Ansuul the Tormentor: "Yes. Face me and die."

^(?)

Ansuul the Tormentor: "You're not welcome here."

Ansuul the Tormentor: "You don't belong here."

Ansuul the Tormentor: "This is my domain. Get out."

Ansuul the Tormentor: "Your presence is a nuisance."

Ansuul the Tormentor: "The worst horrors come from the mind."

Ansuul the Tormentor: "A nightmare you can't wake from."

Ansuul the Tormentor: "A figment of your fear!"

Ansuul the Tormentor: "A terrible memory!"

Ansuul teleports away to summon a maze:

Ansuul the Tormentor: "There he is."

Ansuul the Tormentor: "It's time."

Ansuul the Tormentor: "Found him."

Ansuul the Tormentor: "Let's begin."

Ansuul will try to convince Vanton to give in to her corruption. She'll use one of three fears or emotions against him at the red, green, and blue altars.

After she summons the green maze:

Ansuul the Tormentor: "You were nothing before me, Vanton. You'll be nothing without me."

Once the poison maze is cleared, you must beat Vanton down:

Warlock Vanton: "Ansuul and I cannot be stopped, in any reality."

Ansuul the Tormentor: "With your body and my power we will make everyone live in fear."

Warlock Vanton: "This can't be happening. Why are they fighting back?"

Ansuul the Tormentor: "You're weak, Vanton. But we have the strength to keep fighting."

Warlock Vanton: "I see it now. You can make me strong, Ansuul."

Ansuul the Tormentor: "That's right. Together, we will carry out Vaermina's will."

After she summons the fire maze

Ansuul the Tormentor: "You're angry, Vanton. You can destroy the intruders. You can make them suffer."

Once the fire maze is cleared, you must beat Vanton down:

Warlock Vanton: "You want to keep me small and afraid."

Ansuul the Tormentor: "Perfect, Vanton. Use that anger. Fight back against them."

Warlock Vanton: "Who gave you the right? This is my mind!"

Ansuul the Tormentor: "They're afraid of you, Vanton. Afraid you'll burn them."

Warlock Vanton: "My anger is my strength. I'll burn everything that stands in my way!"

Ansuul the Tormentor: "Your hatred will serve Vaermina well!"

After she summons the lightning maze:

Ansuul the Tormentor: "Come on, Vanton. You've seen what we can do together. Don't you want to rule the Mages Guild?"

Once the lightning maze is cleared, you must beat Vanton down:

Warlock Vanton: "You're keeping me from reaching my potential."

Ansuul the Tormentor: "That's right. They want you to be weak. Powerless."

Warlock Vanton: "Why are you trying to hold me back?"

Ansuul the Tormentor: "They don't think you're strong enough. Destroy them."

Warlock Vanton: "You're just like Twelvane. Always putting me down—stomping on my abilities."

Ansuul the Tormentor: "No one will be able to stop you anymore. Vaermina will see to that."

Once the maze runners defeat Warlock Vanton, Ansuul will teleport back to the battlefield:

Ansuul the Tormentor: "I will break Vanton. But for now, let's see if I can break you."

Ansuul the Tormentor: "Your interference only delays the inevitable."

Ansuul the Tormentor: "You're an annoyance that I'll enjoy crushing."
