![]() ![]() Like the Watcher, she too has been sent to the Spire, however as part of some sort of ritual or test rather than to simply observe. Lastly, Silent, a rogue of sorts who uses poisons and agility to eliminate her foes. An ancient combat automaton that has somehow become self-aware, Defect's desire to enforce balance seems to have been influenced by Neow towards her own ends. Defect is very different from the others. From the Watcher's memories, she seems to be devoid of emotion, simplying follows her assignments. ![]() Watcher is a monk-type character, a blind ascetic who has come to assess the Spire.

Ironclad is a warrior who made a deal with demons to become powerful. We do know a few things about Slay the Spire's playable characters. Over and over again, they die and are reborn, all apparently as part of Neow's bid to finally destroy the Spire.

Neow sends adventurers up the Spire to try and settle this grudge for her, often to their deaths. Whether Neow was exiled from higher up the Spire or somewhere entirely different is unknown, however she seems to hold a personal hatred for the Spire, perhaps because it is her prison. A pale, whale-like creature with three yellow eyes, Neow is not your ordinary quest-giver. Described as an Ancient, which could mean one of the first gods or magical creatures of the world of Slay the Spire, it is said that Neow was exiled to the bottom of the Spire. ![]()
