Butcher

The Butcher

The Butcher is the first quest boss encountered in the game, the scariest monster in the game, and one of the most difficult, for the level. He's found in a small, corpse-filled, ensanguinated square room on level 2 of the dungeon, and bursts forth in a frenzy when the door is opened, with his infamous, "Ahh, fresh meat!" cry echoing forth.

Quest Details
The Butcher's quest occurs in every multiplayer game, and 2/3 of single player games. He drops a random magical item in multiplayer, but drops the unique Butcher's Cleaver in singleplayer. See the Butcher's Quest page for more details and strategy tips.
