Neira the Necromancer
true lady of darkness, Neira rules over the undead. Wielding a blood-red scimitar and hidden beneath a night-hued shroud, she rides into battle atop a gruesome skeletal steed. Should you have the misfortune of encountering this malevolent mistress, beware the bones. And do not underestimate her for a moment. Many adventurers have lost their lives beneath the wicked hooves of her fleet-footed steed.

Tactics
Neira is a semi-still undead boss. She will stand still unless someone attacks her up close, where she'll move about trying to avoid the melee hits. Barracoon the Piper also exhibits this behavior.
Like the Dark Father of dungeon Doom, Neira will throw Unholy Bones at her attackers. From these bones will sprout various undead creatures (including Rotting Corpses, Lich Lords, Bone Knights, Skeletons, Mummies, and Wraiths). Much like fighting a Dark Father, the situation around Neira can quickly become chaotic and uncontrollable with the dozens of creatures that will spawn during combat with her. Neira has the capability of casting Necromancy spells, including Blood Oath. Be careful when attacking her on a melee character because you may get Blood Oathed and instantly kill yourself.
Neira's slayer vulnerability is Undead. She will fall quickly with multiple Flamestrikes with a slayer spellbook. Earthquake also does a very large amount of damage to her. It is advised that during a raid situation, Earthquakes should be used to shorten the time needed to drop her. Earthquaking will cause a great deal of spawn to build around her, which can lead to problems.
