He shoots a level 12 Master Dragon Breath (30% of the time)
and he casts level 12 Master Pain Reflection (50% of the time).

Oh yes, and his attack bonus is Agex3. Better find some of those
rejuventation potions.

As for the Queen of the Dead, she shoots the same stuff but at level 10.
Her special is summon Ghost.
