Choir Pouncer

Agile bug, and one of few hardy pilgrims to have reached the Citadel.

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 30 HP, and a hit for the needle's own damage (crest attacks multiply it first).

Where it is, and what it drops there 13

HP, rosaries and shell shards are read from each scene, so they're exact for that place.
