The '''Iron Imprisoner''' is an [[Unversed]] that is found in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]''. It is one of the bosses at [[Mirage Arena]]. When it is first fought, it is chained and imprisoned in a gibbet, but it gradually releases itself over the course of its battles.

==Strategy==

Note that for all forms, while playing as [[Aqua]], [[Firaga Burst]] will damage and remove the cage when it is summoned. While playing as [[Ventus]], [[Multivortex]] can deal the most damage for all forms. While playing as [[Terra]], [[Double Impact]] is guaranteed to stun all forms, and can be used to stun-lock the Iron Imprisoner until it is defeated.

Overall, it is the easiest of the four forms. Merely dodge the lasers and attack. Alternatively, if you wish to stop any one of its attacks and keep it immobilized, cast Firaga on it repeatedly. While this will inevitably trigger the Firestorm Command Style (or [[Bladecharge]]), do not bother too much about attacking with Command Styles ''unless'' the player character's Command Style finisher is available for use, as he/she is invincible when performing finishes.

====Iron Imprisoner II====

In its second form, the Iron Imprisoner's arms are free, and it holds a massive hammer. It can also spin with the hammer outstretched, dealing fire damage on contact. It retains all of its attacks from its first form, only that it moves slightly faster. Simply dodge, attack and use Shotlocks or cast multiple Firagas on it when possible.

====Iron Imprisoner III====

There are three safe windows of attack: after the Iron Imprisoner summons its cage, immediately after it emerges from the ground, or when it is very far from the player. The first two instances are safe for the player to use Shotlocks; the last instance requires multiple Firagas to subdue the Iron Imprisoner.

Evading the cage is difficult unless the player is executing a finishing command or a Shotlock. If timed correctly, one can avoid the cage by attacking the Imprisoner with a combo.

====Iron Imprisoner IV====

It also has an attack where it sucks you in close before releasing a large explosion. It is wise to keep a further distance away from the boss. If the protagonist is sucked in, it should not be troublesome as the explosion can be blocked. During another new attack, it will possess the room, turning it red and causing the tiles to fly off and attack. The strategy for the third form is also effective here, and the boss can still be stunned by a successful Firaga or Sonic Blade. However, because of the Iron Imprisoner IV's increased strength and ferocity, the player should be more cautious. When the boss possesses the stage, the player can either choose to stay in one place and block constantly to defend against the flying debris, or simply [[Dodge Roll]], [[Cartwheel]], or [[Slide]] around or run to evade damage. It would also be wise to equip a Vanish command, which can be bought in the medal store, as when the character is invisible, the Iron Imprisoner mostly avoids them, giving you a chance to heal or use a shotlock.
