Padre Ignacio Cruz
Level 25 Lawman · The Frontera
Padre Ignacio Cruz is a level 25 lawman found in the Sangre Territory of Desperados Destiny.
Field notes
A defrocked priest who serves as the Frontera's spiritual advisor and moral compass. He absolves their sins and argues for mercy when others demand blood. Some say he's the only reason Don Rafael hasn't crossed certain lines. Others say he crossed them long ago.
What you are walking into
Padre Ignacio Cruz is level 25, carries 150 health, and is classed Standard. That makes it a late-game threat for a well-equipped character. It fights straightforwardly, which makes it a clean read on whether your current build actually works. Every exchange resolves through the Destiny Deck: you draw five cards, choose what to hold, and the resulting poker hand decides how the action lands. Suit matches amplify the result, so the same fight against Padre Ignacio Cruz plays out differently each time you take it on.
Where to find Padre Ignacio Cruz
Padre Ignacio Cruz is encountered at The Frontera. You will need to have discovered and travelled to that location before it can appear as a target, and travel between regions carries its own risks — routes are rolled for interception, and a bad roll puts an encounter between you and your destination. The full entry for The Frontera covers what else is there.
What it drops
A kill pays 200 experience and between $1 and $13. Its loot table can yield Blessed Rosary and Confession Records. Drops are rolled per kill, so a full set takes repeat hunting. The first time you kill any species it is also recorded in your Field Guide, which pays a large one-off experience bonus and counts toward the Guide's completion milestones.
