In [[Super Castlevania IV]], it shoots exploding fireballs from its spear when it attacks, and, when hit, jumps above the screen to land where Simon stands. After losing half of its health, the spear explodes, leaving Slogra to attack by quickly jabbing forth its long beak. Its soul in Dawn of Sorrow allows Soma to throw spears, similar to the [[Javelin]] special weapon in Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin. Slogra is always seen paired with [[Gaibon]], perhaps from their initial appearance as two of the final four bosses in Super Castlevania IV.

Revision as of 00:25, 4 January 2010

Slogra is a spear-wielding enemy resembling a skeletal Pterodactyl who appears in Super Castlevania IV, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow, Castlevania: Curse of Darkness, and Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin. His skeleton appears in the background in Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance.

Slogra attacks by approaching the hero and lunging with his spear when he is close enough. In Super Castlevania IV, he shoots exploding fireballs from his spear when he attacks, and, when hit, jumps above the screen to land where Simon stands. After losing half of his health, the spear explodes, leaving Slogra to attack by quickly jabbing forth his long beak. His soul in Dawn of Sorrow allows Soma to throw spears, similar to the Javelin special weapon in Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin. Slogra is always seen paired with Gaibon, perhaps from their initial appearance as two of the final four bosses in Super Castlevania IV.
