Once transformed, he takes on the stumpy appearance Psaro bore after losing his arms and head during the original conflict, and mutates into the familiar five-eyed form as the fight continues. His coloration is different than Psaro's was, with boney white being the primary hue along with purple for his musculature and blood red for the horns and talons. When he is pushed to the brink, Aamon will mutate a final time and his skin will turn jet black, muscles and horns shifting to a sickening teal. This new form is called '''Ashtaroth'''. | ||

His original hope was that Psaro and the {{Hero 4}}'s {{Party 4}} would destroy each other in their battle, enabling him to ascend to Psaro's position as master of all {{MFamilies}}s unchallenged only to be killed in [[Nadiria]]. | ||

Aamon appears in the game as its new coin boss, starting on August 8th 2022. He is initially fought by himself, but as his health decreases, 3 Coverages appear, one fire, one ice, and one earth to aid him. He can also cast [[Kaboomle]], [[Kazammle]], Continuous Dolmadon, and Spooky Incantation, as well as increase the power of his magic and summon a hurricane. His Ashtaroth form later appears as a coin boss from May 1st 2023 onwards, while he himself can also be fought alongside Barbatos, Rashaverak, and Pruslas in the Four Barrier Guardians boss fight from November 22nd, 2023 onwards. Fitting of a schemer, he protects himself with a barrier and lets the 3 followers of Psaro do the fighting until they're dead. | Aamon appears in the game as its new coin boss, starting on August 8th 2022.

Aamon is a major character in the game, first seen alongside Randolfo when Psaro asks his father to help find a cure for his mother, only for the Master of Monsterkind to curse his son to not attack monsters. After Psaro clears Rank G of the Maullosseum, Aamon is pleased that everything is going as planned, but muses that Psaro is still weak to usurp Randolfo's throne and urges him to grow stronger in battle. He later appears with [[Furgil]] at [[Rosehill]]'s tower after Psaro has helped a [[Winky]] rescue [[Psaro's Pawn]] from [[Raph]]. | Aamon is a major character in the game, first seen alongside Randolfo when Psaro asks his father to help find a cure for his mother, only for the Master of Monsterkind to curse his son to not attack monsters.
