Escalion

Blindingly fast, winged warrior able to launch pointed pinions from its forelimbs.

Needle hits to kill

Silksong multiplies every hit on this enemy by its own factor for your needle level (HealthManager damage scaling), so upgrades help here more or less than the raw damage suggests. For 100 HP, and a hit for the needle's own damage (crest attacks multiply it first).
