Mask of Brutality - This mask resembles a growling devils face shaped from a single piece of a dark grey metal, save that the eyes and mouth are covered by bars like a prison cell.

Alas poor Yorick - The skeleton boss has no head of its own. Instead it uses the skulls of others as a substitute. When it wears someone elses skull, the boss gets all of their abilities and their appearance. Taking enough damage causes the bosss current skull to explode.

Eventually it runs out of skulls and attempts to flee, but like the proverbial chicken with its head cut off, cant tell where it is going.
