DJ Krats

SPOILER WARNING!
The following entry below contains SPOILERS for Lie of Caelum: Spirit!

"Man, I once heard a dude in Aels talk about how I don't have a taste in music. I just play the same shit over and over again. Well let me tell you something, bro: <chicken noise> YOU! <chicken noise> YOU! You dumb VRAK! I'ma show you a real jam right now!"

Esra'dolus, otherwise known as DJ Krats, is a male Minos born from Karsand. He is the founder of Apex Caelum radio station along with his wife, Cherrinon du Reinette. DJ Krats became a renowned figure in Souen due to his involvement with Souen's growing pop culture. He is also Kazuri High graduate, placing 4th in Class C. Despite his lax attitude and demeanor, DJ Krats possesses Flow knowledge and secrets one may argue to rival that of a Laufel's.

DJ Krats also practices "Cloaking", an ancient Karsandan lifestyle where one would conceal their faces unless they are with their soulmate in private.

He is the current reigning champion of Karsand Fighting Climax, a sanctioned tournament sponsored by The Karsandan Queen. Winning against him will transfer the title "Karsandan Champion" to the player's team.

Strategy

First Phase:

At the beginning of the battle, DJ Krats' Flow Ability "Threatening Roar" will activate, inflicting "Shock" to the 2nd and 3rd party member. He will also attack randomly with "Let's MF'in dance", "I'ma spit in yo face", or "Throw down a face-down" throughout each turn. If affected by a normal status effect, DJ Krats will prioritize using a Reliever during his turn. "I'ma spit in yo face" inflicts poison, and "Throw down a face-down" has a high chance of inflicting shock, so it is recommended to bring Relievers to this fight.

Second Phase:

DJ Krats will summon one random clone. These clones will have either or as preferred attacks. The clone will also copy half of his HP and OFP. Luckily, both clones are limited to only one technique, but be careful. If a clone dies, it will activate DJ Krats' overdrive ("Karsandan Greeting"), dealing catastrophic damage to the party. The attack type of overdrive depends on which clone you destroy, so it is recommended to at least prevent yourself from being stance broken beforehand.

The power-based clone will initially mark the player's party with a debuff that increases incoming dmg by 25% and the chain-based clone will use a permanent taunt move to the party upon summon.

Final Phase:

DJ Krats will summon both of his clones this phase, and will use a secondary overdrive ("Let's bake these mofos") immediately after summon: enhancing the entire team's stats by 20% for the duration of the fight. For every 3rd turn, he will also mark the player's party with a debuff called "Gestalt Meter", reducing their DFP by 10% for each stack. If this status effect is stacked 4 times, it will incapacitate the entire party. Due to this mechanic, it is recommended to use Elysion, as she can bypass incapacitation for a couple of turns. Otherwise, your team comp will need to be powerful enough to last 12 turns.

Rematch

His rematch version has a 100% chance of inflicting shock and poison instead of a high chance. Gestalt Meter now also counts party member incapacitations.

Trivia

• DJ Krats is based on Stark Joker's persona.
• His moveset is based on the fact that the developers joke about Mr. Stark frequently overworking himself and needing little to no help.
• The movesets also feature references to the Snack Talk rap and Stark's love of Yu-Gi-Oh! GX
