Pyrope

Pyrope is an enemy that can be encountered in Hotland. It appears to be a mischievous monster who loves heat.

Attacks

 * Bombs are dropped into the Bullet Board. They bounce around and explode after a few seconds.
 * A rope with a burning fire travels horizontally from right to left. The fire is orange, which is an example of orange attacks. You must run through the orange part of the attack in order to avoid taking damage.

Strategy

 * It may be a good idea to select the Cool Down option first, as this will permanently lower its attack.
 * To spare, heat up at least twice, although there is no limit to how many times you can do this.

Name
Pyrope's name can be seen as a portmanteau of pyro (Greek for fire) and rope. However, since pyrope (from the Greek words for fire and eye) is also the name of a dark red gemstone in real life, it is more likely that Pyrope's appearance is a play on its name rather than the other way around. Pyrope also shares a name with Terezi Pyrope of Homestuck, which is a webcomic that Toby Fox had also produced music for.
