Oh yeah, Jabberwock. So this one is kind of interesting in that there were some unused lines indicating that the boss battle with Jabberwock could play out differently depending on what you did. However in the final game you're forced to kill all the snatches before fighting Jabberwock, as the NAVs will block you from entering the arena until they're all dead. This didn't seem to always be the case, and you could fight it at any point at some point during development.

Damn, it's still a forbidding defense.
We should step back for now,
Unit 13.
Analyzing... its armor is 40% weaker!
It's been weakened, but don't get sloppy.
What do you think,
Unit 13?
Only two of these entries are actually used, the first and final ones. The first one is used for the scouting battle, while the last one is used for the real fight.
It incidentally has a horrible weakness to Frostburn so you can probably stunlock it all fight if you're decently lucky.
