The Crawling Grudge (Approaching Hatred) is one of eight playable ships in Caladrius. This ship is piloted by Nightmare of Lilith and is associated with the Element of Dark.
Profile[]
A ship created unexpectedly due to being contaminated by the element of evil during the creation of another ship. Made to destroy, the ship is not easily controlled. It contains Lilith's hatred and has the unique property of strengthening when absorbing the power of evil.
By the power of Sophia and her Howl Loreley, the Crawling Grudge was locked away at the bottom of the lake. However, once Sophia left the lake, the seal was weakened, making it possible for the ship to move.
Weaponry[]
Normal Shot: Non-penetrating red beam that becomes more powerful between stages.
Bomb: Creates a black hole that cancels enemy bullets.
Element Shot:
- Attack ES: Dark/Phantom Glaive - Rapid fires lines of needles from both sides of the ship while firing none from the front. Leveling up increases power, firing speed, and bullet size.
- Support ES: Dark/Necrosis Witch - Places bits that fire from the far sides of the screen. They are directly parallel to where the ship is when the player first presses the button. Leveling up increases quantity and bullet size.
- Defense ES: Dark/Parasitic Gemini - Two whip-like laser beams cancel enemy bullets, whipping forward like scissors and dealing huge damage to anything it hits. Leveling up increases length power, and bending speed.
- Element Burst: Attacks with an infinite number of dark blades that fill the screen, destroying all enemy bullets. However, it doesn't follow the ship's movement.
