Redrum is a boss in Xenogears. It is fought in the Nortune Sewers.
Description[edit]
Redrum is encountered within the Sewers in Nortune. It's most deadly attack is Murder, which will immediately kill a party member and cause it to heal for that character's HP. Bloody Rain is another attack which will deal fire damage to the party but will heal it. It also has a Gel attack which will confuse the impacted party member and a poison attack.
Although Fei, Rico and Citan kill Redrum under the assumption that it murdered several of Rico's followers, it is later revealed that it was innocent and Id had murdered them. It is revealed through his son in the Orphanage that he was originally human.
The boss Bloody on the Reaper Ship and the Bloody Bros in Krelian's Lab resembles Redrum.
