Story[]
Shovel of Hope[]
In Shovel of Hope, the Dancer can be found in the Juice Bar under the Village. She has a grudge against Specter Knight and claims that she will offer her greatest treasure to whoever defeats him. After beating Specter Knight, she rewards Shovel Knight with her dance, which consists in dancing around the tavern (including on the bar) while Grandma Swamp, the Juice Maid, and the Deposed King cheer her on.
She reappears in the ending, dancing with the Troupple King, his acolyte, and a school of Troupples to celebrate the defeat of The Enchantress.
Specter of Torment[]
In Specter of Torment, the Dancer appears at the Tower of Fate after Specter Knight clears the Lich Yard. She wants to keep morale high around the troops of The Enchantress and starts dancing. However, Specter Knight is unimpressed and refuses to watch her dance. After her performance, he expresses his disgust, much to her shock. The Dancer explains that she learned that dance specially for him, but he blows her off. She runs off with a broken heart, swearing revenge. Specter Knight then unlocks the ability to perform the Cold Shoulder command.
