Xezemoth

Background
Xezemoth comes from a species of hyper-intelligent, reptilian creatures. Their species is known for it's imperialistic and carnivorous view of the universe. They travel from galaxy to galaxy conquering all known forms of life, raiding and pillaging anything they see fit along the way. Xezemoth is known as one of the foulest and cruelest among their species. Xezemoth is an especially foul beast of his species, after being tainted by the ghosts of the Nether biome. His wrath is exceptionally cruel, and so is his hunger to spread evil.

Strategy
Xezemoth's base stats are (besides health) the weakest of all the characters: highest health, lowest speed, weakest boost, and an only-slightly-improved boost recharge speed. His saving grace is that Eternal Rage ability: when it's active, his base speed is 33% faster than Emerald Jones, the fastest character, and a doubled attack speed will double your damage. Unfortunately, it's quite difficult to keep Eternal Rage going all the time, and when it wears off, Xezemoth is a bit of a sitting duck until he kills or dismembers something.

Fortunately, even the weakest Starbait creatures will trigger Eternal Rage when killed, so you should leave some Starbait alive and near you for those times when you can't re-trigger Eternal Rage before it expires.

Since Xezemoth always needs to keep an eye out for when he can trigger Eternal Rage, playing him requires a reckless, charge-from-one-combat-to-the-next playstyle. That, combined with his difficulty in taking full advantage of the higher-powered healing items, makes Xezemoth a character for players want a challenge and are very good at dodging.
