Keep in mind that it does not speak and cannot pronounce words, as it is a wild entity.

Attack Slowly moves down hallways, moving towards and killing any player not in a locker, regardless of their location, and starts a minigame that lasts indefinitely until the player either dies, or leaves.

Harbinger (formerly known as Death Angel, and briefly known as Mr. Kill) is a monster that spawns extremely rarely in Pressure within the Endless Expedition.

Harbinger is a spectral, ghostly, and anomalous creature; Its skin is like a humanoid and spectral black mass mixed with purple and dark violet, its four legs are strong and it has retractable claws, its tail is long like a dragon's, it has 6 wings on its back and its spine has spike-like scales, its head is a humanoid and deformed skull of black mixed with violet, it has no eyes, only sockets, its fangs are bluish, and its whole body and head have an effect of spectral shadows in motion. Its height reaches 2.85. His voice is very deep and low, similar to that of a demon.

Mechanics Harbinger is exclusive to the Endless Expedition and is disabled by default. It can be enabled by activating a red skull with a crown, located to the left of the crashed submarine the players spawn in. Approaching the skull gives the prompt "Summon Him" ​​to the player. Interacting with the skull causes it to glow red while displaying the text "Doom is approaching."[1]

Once enabled, there is a 1/12 chance upon opening a new door to add a value of 1 to Harbinger's spawn weight. The higher the weight, the better chance of it spawning. (For reference, Angler's spawn value is 60.) This value is reset back to 0 when Harbinger spawns.[2] When Harbinger spawns, all lights will quickly become red, all drawers and lockers will rapidly close and open for about a minute, music will start to play, and Harbinger will begin slowly advancing.

Harbinger will know where players reside, no matter where they hide. The only way for a player to survive past the moment Harbinger reaches them is to hide in a locker.

If a player is in a locker as Harbinger passes, they will be forced into an infinite minigame similar to Pandemonium's. Like Pandemonium, Harbinger attacks the locker to drain the player's energy, except at a much more aggressive pace. This minigame is unbeatable.

Dying to Harbinger will have Sebastian state the encounter was "just unfair", after which he will grant the player a "free revive, on the house".

Once players die and Harbinger spawns, any rooms with red lights as a result of their activity will remain red until players advance through more doors and the previous rooms unload.

Strategy Since it's impossible to beat Harbinger's minigame, it would be more efficient to die to Harbinger upon its arrival rather than stall it, since you will be granted a free revive, even if you have already revived twice. SPR-INTS can be used to outrun Harbinger, but this is only a means of stalling; it will inevitably catch up.

Trivia Harbinger is not a canon monster. [5] Harbinger's current design is an unused design for Blitz. [6] The original, admin-only version of Harbinger (Death Angel) did not have phases, staying the same the entire time. The skull designs on Code Breachers are images of Harbinger. The reason for Harbinger's rename was so people didn't confuse the name Death Angel with Lady Death. For a short while, Death Angel was called Mr. Kill before the name Harbinger was revealed. Harbinger was originally going to be called Lady Death before she became a separate character. Before the "Friendly Fire" update, Harbinger would never attack the locker. [7] Harbinger was first recorded beaten by Man01 on the 17th of March 2025. [8] After the Four Point Five update and before May 2nd, 2025, Harbinger's minigame consisted of 7 confirmed phases. After the 7th phase, you were able to win the minigame.[9] The first phase consisted of the locker banging becoming more frequent and the circle moving around with every bang. The second phase introduced a red circle, being slightly bigger than the white circle, which drained your energy severely if your cursor was over it. It would also move around at random speeds across the screen, either moving slowly or moving fast. The third phase would cause the white circle to vanish for brief periods. It would not disappear completely, and you still could've put your cursor over it if you were lucky enough to find it. To accommodate this potentially game-ending change, the player's passive energy loss would've been reduced while the circle was hidden, as to prevent unfair losses. The red circle would remain visible. The fourth phase would cause the white circle to shrink down to a notable size, making it harder to put your cursor over it. The fifth phase would add a second red circle which had the exact same properties as the first one, making it much harder to get to the white cursor without hovering over one. The sixth phase added to third red circle,

Change History Update Name Date Changes "Worth the Wait Part One" June 30th, 2025 The Endless Expedition's opening area has been changed. Harbinger's totem is now located to the left of the crashed submarine the players spawn in, now reading "Summon It" when hovered. Hotfix May 2nd, 2025 Harbinger's minigame is reverted to how it was before Four Point Five. "The Hunted" March 13th, 2025 Harbinger now only spawns if the red skull in the Submarine Dock is interacted with, and the spawn cutoff at door 200 has been removed. Unknown Date Unknown A spawn cutoff for Harbinger was added at Door 200 due to people complaining about him ruining Diminishing Returns runs.[11][12] "Four Point Five" December 14th, 2024 Death Angel is renamed to Harbinger, is fully reworked, and can now spawn very rarely in the Endless Expedition. Unknown Date Unknown Harbinger is introduced under the name "Death Angel" as an admin-only monster that would act identically to Pandemonium, but without slamming the locker or ever leaving.

Notes When Harbinger spawns, the door to the next room is locked. This is most likely so the player can't rush through the rooms and make them spawn, which would make Harbinger fall into the void. Harbinger makes a quiet static sound when spawned, similar to The Multi-Monster. A quiet song can be heard when he spawns, which turns out to be a heavily edited version of "Light Reading Material".[3][4] This track was later officially released with the Vol. 2 soundtrack under the name "Death Angel". The earliest Harbinger can spawn is door 1. If Harbinger spawns after door 400, the lights won't glow at all. The only visual cue of Harbinger's arrival will be the repeated opening and closing of the lockers and drawers. Dying to Harbinger will award the player with the "Death Incarnate" achievement. Unlike Pandemonium's minigame, the player's energy will not be restored when their cursor is thrown around. While very rare, it's possible for Harbinger to spawn multiple times in close succession in the same run. Strategy Since it's impossible to beat Harbinger's minigame, it would be more efficient to die to Harbinger upon its arrival rather than stall it, since you will be granted a free revive, even if you have already revived twice. SPR-INTS can be used to outrun Harbinger, but this is only a means of stalling; it will inevitably catch up.
