Scorpioness Najka

Najka is a boss in the Shaded Woods area of Dark Souls II. Najka and her betrothed, Manscorpion Tark, were created long ago by an unnamed master who has long since disappeared. It is implied that the two were experiments, similar to The Duke's Dear Freja, and that their creator was either Duke Tseldora or Seath the Scaleless himself. Najka and Tark are the only two of their kind that speak the human tongue, though a ring is required to understand them. The two were once a peaceful couple living a quiet existence in the Shaded Ruins. But as time passed, Najka slowly began losing her mind and became more and more violent and unreasonable as a result. A war began between Tark and Najka, and has been waged for many years before the player's arrival.
