SyndicateVarnas

This NPC entry captures Varnas outside of combat: his two scenes, Syndicate_Leader/Varnas_Cutscene and Syndicate_Leader/Leaving_Village, place him in Agros Village's story beats rather than the boss arena. That matches the narrative frame set by the Save the Village questline, where the player 'awakens in a carriage with a father and son... they speak of the Syndicate, a criminal organization that recently kidnapped the father's daughter,' before arriving at 'a nearby village under attack.' Varnas is the Syndicate enforcer behind that opening assault.

As a combat encounter (documented separately under Enemies/Bosses as Varnas the Black Horn), he carries 400 base HP, a 300 stagger HP pool, and is fought at level 5 during the act_1_quest_12 story beat - his boss moveset includes a Disengage repositioning move and an escalating combo (RuinousSurge, Engage, EnforcersFury, CrushingBloom, Downburst) across two HP-threshold phases. This NPC page documents his non-combat cutscene presence: the character seen arriving in and later leaving Agros Village, bookending the fight itself.

SyndicateVarnas is one of six NPCs across the full 24-character roster verified with a render clean enough to publish, giving the game's opening antagonist a confirmed portrait alongside his documented boss stats.
