Sirocco Raid Lore:

Out of the seven vessels, the Apostle emerged, and that was the beginning of everything.
The Apostle beheld her seven vessels and recalled her journey that led her to them. She told the seven spirits,
"I would like to reward you for your sacrifice. Tell me the bad things you did in life. I will swallow and use them to empower myself."

The one who cultivated life next to death stepped forward and said, "My sin is
my foolishness. Instead of defying the prophecy like I wanted, I let myself become part of it."
The Apostle held out her hand and touched him as she said, "I will let you have wisdom." Immediately, he vanished except for his head.
The one who filled the furrows of death saw this and stepped forward. "I couldn't protect anything.
I stayed alive while everyone else I knew died. I even harvested the life of a daughter that I never had."
The Apostle nodded and said, "I will let you have the power to protect." Immediately, horns grew out of his forehead.
The one who dug up the earth to find death hurriedly stepped forward and said, "I was killed by my own friend. He told me lies with his eyes and made me bleed, soaking his hands with my blood."
The Apostle pondered and said, "I shall take away your freedom." Immediately, a house was formed inside his belly.
The others also confessed their sins, pleasing the Apostle and filling her with energy. But the one who was branded by death remained silent.

Bristling, the Apostle asked, "Why you don't confess your sins? Are you so innocent?"
The one branded by death said, "If anyone has sinned, that's you Apostles."
The Apostle asked, "Are you not afraid of me?" She answered, "No. You can destroy my body, but not my spirit."
The Apostle stood up and announced in front of everyone, "Okay, then you will remain silent.
You will live hiding in the dark without light. While hiding, you will cry yourself to death."
The Apostle then ordered the group to scatter and started climbing the tower to carry out the rest of her plans.

Move Set

Snake Form

• Venom Breath: On either the left or right, Ghilli will fire out a huge AoE roomwide breath attack that can be easily avoided by staying behind it.
• Goat & Bats: Ghili summons a swarm of bats to attack a targeted player, then a Goat is created that will dash towards them for damage.
• Tracking Bite: Ghili targets one player and proceeds to follow towards them to land a bite attack that causes explosions either once or twice.
• Tail Slam: Ghili reviews its tail and make a wide diagonal range attack that randomly targets players.

• Soul Swap: Ghili moves into the map's middle section, summoning four magic ground pentacles that each player must stay on one of their own as it proceeds to open it's mouth and extracted everyone's souls from their bodies. Upon doing this, party members' souls are in the form of white orbs and they cannot re-enter their respective bodies, but instead they must trade with another teammates' body either clockwise or counterclockwise as they're unable to use any skills from their class and are heavily restricted to slow movement, jumping and basic X-string attacks along with a HP bar once bodies are swapped while Ghili prepares a series of mini-patterns:
  • Ground Bite: Ghili moves around either side to bite down at players.
  • Magic Eyes: It'll relocate over to the middle and creates the same pentacles to do an eye gaze attack, everyone should stay in one of each to prevent being heavily damaged.
  • Deadly Breath: Ghili fires out a Y-axis laser going left to right or vice versa. This can be either jumped over to stick behind room edge corners.
  • Breath Unleash: Ghili starts powering up for an AoE attack, all players must immediately push Ghili away with x-strings regardless of either side to make a safe zone before the circle itself enlarges and launches the attack. Bullet Time here is extremely useful just in case.

Spider Form

• Jumping Scratch: Spider Ghili hops around a few times and attacks with it's front legs.
• Web Prison:Ghili starts shooting down webs throughout the room, anyone who gets hit by one will be caught into a spider nest. Uncaught players can rescue their allies by jumping into the nest and pulling it down with their weight, thus freeing them.
• Red Laser Prison: Spider Ghili summons a red orb and targets two players surronding them seperately in a red laser beam wave similar to Male Launcher's  Satellite Beam. The laser spins will expand then retract, dealing heavy damage towards anyone who comes into contact with those beams.
• Tornadoes: Spider Ghili blasts out a X-axis twister similar to Sirocoo's Illusion, then it spawns vertical tornadoes that track players.
• Strike Down: Like Golden Wing Tritura from Prey-Isis Raid, Spider Ghili goes airborne and dives down in the middle as it strikes the ground upon landing with a AoE circle, dealing potentially lethal damage if not avoided.

Octopus Form

• Ink Prison: Ghili traps two players in seperate Ink Orbs that slowly drains their HP. Untrapped players can either move or destroy the prison to rescue them from being left vunerable to attack patterns.
• Tentacle Slam: Ghili slams down its tentacles to cause a roomwide AoE explosion wave. This can be avoided by staying near Ghili's nearly spread out tentacles when it begans the attack.
• Wide-Range Bombardment: Similar to Roseberry's Consecutive Wave Sword, but there are two damage zones, both an inside and outside version. The inner explosion has a ring of tentacles rising up first, then the outer explosions has those moves in a clockwise motion.
• Orb Rain: Ghili slams the ground to creates waves of AoE ink orbs launching up and raining down across the map, exploding upon landing.

Strategy

• Ghili is considered to be the least difficult of the True-Conciousness Trio. Despite wielding alot of AoE advantage attack patterns regardless of either form it takes, they can be easily avoided if the party has good coordination.

Appearances

• True Hall of Consciousness (Boss)

Trivia

• Ghili and it's three forms may represent Sirocco when she absorbed the Grim Seeker faction leaders upon being revived:
  • Snake - Sirocco
  • Spider - Hellcat Louise
  • Octopus - Prophet Ezra
• Ghili also summons smaller versions of itself, which represent two other Grim Seeker faction leaders:
  • Goat - Lone Roseberry
  • Bat - Red Ghost Soryun
• Ghibli is a Arabic variant of the same Sirocco Mediterranean wind it's named after. The Global version spells it as Ghili without the B letter either as a mistranslation or to avoid confusion with Japanese Animation company, Studio Ghibli that's also named after the wind.
