The Mechanical dance is a Boss encountered in Fear & Hunger 2: Termina. If not dealt with properly, Olivia will turn into Mechanical dance due to Moonscorch on Day 3 Morning.
Lore
The Mechanical dance is the humanoid machine form that Olivia assumes when in her moonscorched state. Instead of legs, her form features a massive vent system, while her hands take on the shape of two blade-like appendages. Her turning animation suggests her wheelchair is fused to her as part of this state. Despite the power and strength conveyed by her new form, the Mechanical dance appears visibly distressed, weeping and lamenting that she has "been this way forever." This might moreso be a manifestation of her jealous fear of living in the shadow of her sister, Reila, as it is notable she felt this way even in her childhood, this being reinforced by the fact Olivia has the shadowed soul, as opposed to Reila's Radiating soul. The form may reflect Olivia's anxiety about being confined to a wheelchair and facing an indefinite future limited by her physical condition, as she fears that others will perceive her solely through the lens of her disability, rather than recognizing her for who she truly is.
Location
- Can be found wandering in the Museum

Strategy
Fear & Hunger Mode
Mechanical dance will always attack twice with a move that can remove arms, a way to protect arms, like Arm guards, Fluted armor or Salmonsnake rune is highly recommended.
Her head has very low evasion and less health than her torso, or arms combined. It's best to go after the head and ignore everything else unless using damage overtime skills and items.
Her ability to inflict toxic on the entire party can make an extended fight against her extremely dangerous.
She only does typeless or slashing damage, so bring armor like the Bremen chestplate or Chainmail dress.
2 hits from a strong weapon like the Meat grinder can easily kill her. A doubling one member party can block on the first turn even without arm guards, and using rev guarantee a kill by just attacking the head twice.
