Wringers are the disembodied hands of thieves that were severed for their crimes in life. The shackles they bear are reminders of their sins and now serve as their weapons in the afterlife.
Wringers float slowly towards the player and attack with a grab, which restrains Zagreus in chains for 1 Second. While restrained, he cannot take any actions except to mash the dash button to break free.
Wringers start appearing in Tartarus once Zagreus has reached the surface at least once. (Defeating the final boss is not necessary.) They can be summoned by the Wretched Sneak during its mini-boss encounter while Middle Management is active.
Codex entry[ | ]
'...Among mortals, thievery is among the most despised of crimes, resulting on occasion in thieving hands being taken from their owners. As it turns out, they remain separated even here. Those thieving hands remain in the darkest depths of Tartarus, grasping forever for riches, the warmth of life... anything they cannot have.'
