Macil

Macil is an enemy and a character from Strife. He is leader of The Front.

Macil is possessed by a Spectre. This makes him a dangerous maniac, searching for pieces of Sigil. Later in the game, the player must kill Macil who sent numerous people to their deaths.

Until you take over the Order's Castle, you cannot actually kill Macil, for he is invulnerable to damage, but you can kill him anytime after destroying the Programmer, and his Spectre will rise out to attack you. He has 95 Hit points when you fight him prior to his Spectre. Since being possessed by a Spectre, he inherits the ability avoid all damage from normal weapons. Only the second Sigil piece or better can harm Macil. It is impossible to use the first Sigil piece, because he is immune to its attack and it would prevent you from continuing the story properly.
