Mal du Pays
(The figure opens its mouth...)
In Stars and Time in-game text
Mal du Pays is an antagonist NPC in In Stars and Time.
Description
Examine
As Siffrin can only encounter Mal du Pays alone, it is not possible to examine this ennemy.
Appearance
Mal du Pays closely resembles Siffrin, sharing their tall hat, unkempt chin-length hair, trapezoidal cloak, and long pants, but its color scheme is inverted such that it is almost entirely black with white lines. It also shares Siffrin's eyepatch and visible eye, but its eye is occupied by a large swirl and it does not appear to have a mouth.
Personality
Combat
Mal du Pays does not attack on its turn, instead only waiting. It is immune to all Craft types and cannot be damaged.

Strategy
Because Mal du Pays cannot be damaged nor damages the player, trying to attack is completely ineffectual. The encounter plays out more akin to a cutscene. Once a certain number of its turns pass, Siffrin will begin speaking to it, and it will eventually respond.
The fastest way to reach this state is to guard on Siffrin's turn, thereby also increasing the time until his next turn and reducing the time spent mindlessly hitting buttons. Make Up The Time should especially be avoided, as giving more turns to Siffrin is pointless.
