Pojo.
Pojo is Sumner's magically enchanted chicken. He is both a cheat-coded character and an item. When obtaining or using Pojo's Egg, a hero temporarily becomes Pojo. Pojo's primary attack is a fireball, not unlike the projectile used by the Phoenix Familiar. As a downside, Pojo actually loses health if he eats Meat-type Food. In Gauntlet: Dark Legacy there is also a Treasure Room called Pojo's Henhouse found in the Haunted House, which unlocks the Hyena.
Cheat Code[]
By entering EGG911 as a character name, the player can permanently play as Pojo. Ironically when the hero levels up while as Pojo in Gauntlet: Dark Legacy, Sumner will say "Pojo is now a Level 10 Prankster" instead of the official title as Jester, even though it appears on the text on the screen.
Bugs[]
- In Gauntlet: Dark Legacy, while playing as Pojo using the EGG911 cheat name, a glitch sometimes occurs in which the player's character suddenly disappears with the only way to see where they are being to track the character's shadow beneath them.
- This is likely due to Pojo being registered as a power up and the game erroneously computing the power to have "timed out" when it is supposed to be infinite, thus the character is stuck in a loop with their original form being unable to reappear while the power is still in effect, but the power being unable to cancel out due to being locked onto the character.
Trivia[]
- Pojo is the chicken from Mace: the Dark Age video game.
