Ironclad
The demon-fuelled soldier who opens every new save file.
The Ironclad is one of the four characters you can play in Slay the Spire, described in-game as the last survivor of the Ironclads, a soldier who traded his soul for demonic power. His toolkit leans on heavy attacks, strong defence and cards that Exhaust. He begins a run with 80 HP, more than any other character, and his deck opens with five Strikes, four Defends and a Bash.
Background
His starter relic is Burning Blood, which restores 6 HP after each fight; a boss chest can swap it for Black Blood. He is also the only character available at the start of the game: the others are unlocked by finishing runs.
