Data on ETH'AIM
The champion looks at another quest on the board ... and this one is a boss called ETH'AIM. Is time to read more.

The receptionist lost all interest, when who she thinks is a rookie once again picks an easy prey. That's how they call it, even being a boss, no one knows the true danger that is ETH'AIM. The books tell all.
Eth'aim, is seated on a throne deep within the Caverns, inside a dimly-lit throne room. And he is a boss level 95. Just this fact could make all adventurers think twice before facing him ... until a party found his weakness.
A barbarian, was his downfall. While Eth'aim was busy attacking the fire mage, to keep the room in the dark, Eth'aim was attacked, and immediately stunned, after seeing that the barbarian repeated the attack, keeping poor Eth'aim always stunned, and enable to counter all the attacks the rest of the party did. From the big fireball casted by the mage, to a tinny dagger used by a thief, Eth'aim took all the damage. And the reputation for an easy xp source was born.
Here ends the knowledge of the books, and the champion once more walks slowly to the dungeon remembering the untold parts.
No one knew the reason, a level 95 like Eth'aim without some immunity to stuns was very rare to see, but Eth'aim was the exception, and even the beast never understood why. Until it happened. The problem is always the same, overconfidence. Thinking that Eth'aim is easy to defeat, a party of only two confronted him a few days ago. It could be because that they didn't want to share the xp points with others, or because they were a party used to work like that, or some other reason ... that is not important, it happened ... and changed all.
The strategy was flawless, until they made one mistake. Eth'aim is level 95, and has many skills, one of them is being able to cast illusions ... and the Paladin attacked the illusion to stun it ... and missed Eth'aim. And the beast rejoiced, for the first time was able to fight back, and so it did. With a swing of his hand, Eth'aim aimed to the other member of the party, the thieve. With less HP than the Paladin, and without plate armour, a swing of Eth'aim's hand was enough ... And after losing her partner, the Paladin driven by emotion forgot Eth'aim's weakness, and began to cast magic to punish the shadow beast ... Big mistake, a Paladin level 50 is strong, but Eth'aim is level 95 ... and casted his shadow magic way faster ... And then the worse possible scenario unfolded ... Eth'aim level up.
All happened a few days ago, and was whispered to the champion by the Voices of the World ... is time to end this.
