By book
The Krakaren in book 1 — Dungeon Crawler Carl
Krakaren Clone, level 10, the moonshine boss of the second floor's stairwell quadrant (ch. 32–ch. 35): a communal brain that gets stupider, crossed with an anti-vax suburban mom, running an MLM of unvaccinated clurichauns and laminak fairy managers. The first boss to leave its room, through the walls. Beaten by a recipe — a fairy corpse blended into moonshine for immunity — and a zombie carrying a lit jug. 'For every one that is killed, Krakaren Prime births two more' (ch. 34); Mordecai smiles and will not say her weakness, which means she is not finished.
