Lead Maiden

Lead Maidens are a notably difficult enemy encountered both on early floors and later ones. They will slowly hop towards the player, then open up and fire three rings of triangular bullets that will stick to walls, then fire towards the player. Upon death they explode.

Lead Maidens cannot be damaged while they are closed, even when under debuffs like fire and poison. Bullets that hit them will instead ricochet off their body (similar to Minelets).

Lead Maidens can be dangerous in rooms containing little to no cover, floor hazards, limited movement space, and numerous dead ends that they can force the player into. However, their attacks are very predictable and can be easily avoided once the player is familiar with them.
