Genessa may very well be the last Shell you discover, located inside a boss encounter northwest of the Abbey Entrance Beacon.

She is tied for the lowest HP of all Shells, with Smert, and can summon Faithful Doubles that attack and deal damage to her targets.

She also doesn't become Severed from the Harbinger if her health is depleted, instead becoming Stray. While Stray she will have a copy of herself double her attacks and movements, making for a high risk high reward style of play.

“Nothing is so broken it can’t be made whole again.”
