*Upon dreamnailing the statue with dashmaster charm equipped and the hunter's journal completed* "Heya. You've been busy, huh? ... so, i've got a question for ya. do you think even the weakest bug can improve...? that everybody can be powerful and make good decisions, if they just try? heh heh heh heh... all right. well, here's a better question. do you wanna have a bad dream? 'cause if you swing that nail one more time... you are REALLY not going to like what happens next." *Dashmaster's spirit appears. If dreamnailed again:* welp. sorry, White Lady. this is why i never make promises." *Instead of dream warrior attacking immidiatelly, Knight is transported to a dream realm. It looks like a corridor with endless row of columns on each side. In the middle stands Dashmaster and says:* "... that expression that you're wearing... ... well, i won't grace it with a description. It's a beautiful day in Hallownest. Crystals are singing, delicate flowers are blooming... On days like these, shadows like you... SHOULD BE LOST IN ABYSS." *The battle begins. Dashmaster dodges every time Knight tries to land a hit on him. He rests every time Knight is on 1 mask. Knight has a choice, heal or risk getting a hit. Dashmaster can wake up and kill the Knight, should it be too slow. Once the knight lands one hit the battle ends. It is transported back to the statue. There the Dashmaster says:* "so, guess that's it, huh? just... don't say I didn't warn you welp... I'm going to Dirtmouth. ... Sprint, wanna race me there?" *The spirit disappears and the Knight gets a lot of essence* *The hunter's journal entry:* "The weakest bug of Hallownest. Has a very fragile shell, yet is incredibly fast. He builds his energy from long naps he often takes" *Hunter's note:* "I was challenged by him during my hunt in the Gardens. I thought him to be easy prey. Yet to my frustration, he avoided all my attacks, and left me bruised. Before he left he said something about protecting what's left of bugkind. Fool. He should've finished me when he had the chance. Now there's nothing left for him in this world."

[@SimpleAndBasic]

In the beautiful halls of Godhome leading to what appears to be your final challenge, stands the weakest bug. Weaker than even Zote was. It deals so little damage that it can barely take even half of a mask off every hit, and tapping it with your nail is enough to end its puny life. And yet, it doesn't seem afraid of the being who ended the lives of all those infected bugs without so much as a smidgeon of remorse. It doesn't even seem to care at all. ... You feel like you're in for a BAD TIME...

[@SimpleAndBasic]

It actually could share some similarities with Sans. Watching from the sidelines as you kill bug, after bug, and yet never making a move to stop you because... Why would it? It's necessary, after all, to break the seal and contain the infection. But going into Godhome? Challenging them? It could consume everything, and perhaps unleash a being so powerful it rivalled the gods themselves. It's the only reason a true coward such as the Dashmaster would even try to fight, and surprisingly win, over and over again until it's inevitable demise... But, eh, it's just hypotheticals. ;)

[@Tbie0110]

Mechanic for this bug - player won't be able to hit this bug, because it's always out of reach. You should wait and survive until it tired then one shot him. Probably GasterBlasterb would look like Radiance's... blasters?? Bones would be or limbs of bugs or small daggers, like Hollow Knight's.

[@epicpro5575]

The Dashmaster How to find: Go to Godhome and look for a locked door. Sit by the bench next to it and save quit the game 3 times, as evidenced by the sign next to it that reads: "Sitting on this bench and quitting 3 times, this line is funny, because it rhymes. As you struggle on this, thy weeps, but once you're done, you enter where the Dashmaster sleeps." Hunter's Journal entry: Dashmaster An incredibly agile bug with a fragile shell. He can be observed sleeping most of the time. Hunter's note: I'm surprised this bug is alive at all. If not for his speed, he would end up in someone's jaws. Hollow Knight Ending: The Radiant Dasher After killing The Dashmaster, he drops the "Ultimate Dash" charm. Picking it up replaces the "Dashmaster" charm. The Radiance then calls out and you watch a window break as The Radiance enters through the broken window. Radiance fight: Dashmaster allows you to absorb every attack with a small dodge animation, dash without any cooldown and dash upwards, so basically the Radiance but you're overpowered. Final cutscene: As the void grabs the Radiance, your shell flashes a blue eye. Then it breaks and you're basically nightmare Sans smacking the Radiance. As the essence pours out of it's eye, you stuff 10 bones inside, blowing her up. It then cuts to the Abyss where you're just slowly fading away.
