Persten the Deceitful is the wighted variant of Mia Persten, summoned by Sliske as part of the final battle in Desert Treasure II - The Fallen Empire. She will attack with magic and has two special attacks. The first is an attack where she will channel power to launch lightning strikes, indicated by looming shadows, around the area for moderate damage, hitting in the high 20s and low 30s. As her Hitpoints gets lower, she will channel subsequent lightning strikes in a row, up to three.

She will also conjure a portal that has 30 Hitpoints, which spawns wighted leeches until destroyed. She can create two at a time, and they will always be near the entrance of the room. The wighted leeches have 5 Hitpoints and move at a speed slower than walking, but attack at the same speed as darts on rapid style and have 100% accuracy, usually hitting between 4 and 6 that cannot be blocked by prayer.

Persten is unaffected by life leech effects, meaning that items like the amulet of blood fury will not provide any healing during this fight.^[1]
