Possess Speed

Possess Speed

Buff
When killed, return all stolen Dexterity to the player.

The Forgotten carries Possess Speed from the moment it enters the fight, and the power does nothing while it lives. Its Miasma move takes 2 Dexterity from each player and gives itself the same amount, and the power records every point it strips from a player. When the Forgotten dies, each player is handed back exactly the total taken from them.

Enemies that apply Possess Speed

Notes

Only Dexterity reductions applied by the Forgotten itself are tracked, so Dexterity lost to other enemies is not refunded, and the Dexterity it grants itself is not reversed. The Forgotten's Dread attack adds its Dexterity to its damage (13, or 15 on Ascension 9, plus Dexterity), so each Miasma also makes that hit harder. Its partner The Lost runs the same trick with Strength through Possess Strength.
