Sentinel Aksalaz is a race? and the final secret boss of Black Drake Villa. The nature of the Sentinel is shrouded in mystery, one of the few details being his eternal duty to test and kill those who seek him, and that falling in battle to worthy opponents will finally grant him freedom.
To face him, your group must defeat the three other optional bosses, the Avatars of Zeal, Vigor, and Fortitude, in addition to the main three boss encounters.
Furthermore, each player must collect at least 25 Avatar Fragments, found throughout the dungeon. Each player can only see the fragments that only they can collect.
If your group fulfills these requirements, each player then needs to activate the Avatar Artifact found at the side of the Athenaeum, which will summon Sentinel Aksalaz in the central pit.
Throughout various points in the dungeon, you can temporarily take on the Sentinel's form by going to the marked pads and activating them, which will allow you to use his ice ability and freeze opponents in place. This is the effect of the Relic of the Sentinel tool.

Dialogue[edit]
When a player transforms into an Ice Avatar:
- Voice on the Wind: "Find me mortal. Free me."
- Voice on the Wind: "I shall watch how you use my power."
- Voice on the Wind: "Could you be my freedom?"
- Voice on the Wind: "Do you even know what you seek?"
- Voice on the Wind: "A step even closer to my release."
After defeating his first Avatar:
- Voice on the Wind: "Who brings me forth after an eternity?"
After defeating his second Avatar:
- Voice on the Wind: "You accept my might … but are you worthy of it?"
After defeating his third Avatar:
- Voice on the Wind: "The circle is complete. Your final test awaits."
After touching his last Avatar Artifact, causing him to appear and challenge you:
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "Through your wisdom, you have earned the right to challenge me. I shall not go easy."
Combat Dialogue[edit]
Idling before combat:
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "I waited for eternity. I can do so for longer."
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "You summoned me and now you must fight."
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "Is now the time? Will you be the ones?"
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "Patience. Something few mortals possess."
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "The opportunity is now. Seize your fate."
Starting combat:
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "I shall find that point where you break."
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "Let us see what challenge you offer me."
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "A test of your limits to determine your worth."
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "My eternal duty lies in killing those who seek me."
Summoning his Avatar of Zeal:
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "The test intensifies. Go beyond your limits."
Summoning his Avatar of Vigor:
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "This does not end until I am satisfied!"
Summoning his Avatar of Fortitude:
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "An end approaches, but whose?"
Group wipe:
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "You are not the one I seek."
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "All this effort for naught."
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "Not what I wished for, mortals."
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "An eternity of disappointment."
He will give you only five chances to defeat him. Each time your group resurrects he'll say:
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "That's one. True warriors stand again rather than stay on the ground."
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "Now two battles lost. Will you seek redemption for your failure?"
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "Three failures. I begin to fear I shall not find release this day."
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "Four. I offer a final chance, mortals. Please—do not make me regret this."
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "Enough. I rescind my offer of power. Perhaps we will meet again when you are ready."
When he dies, as he fades away:
- Sentinel Aksalaz: "You … are worthy. At last … I am free."
