The Minstress of Pain is a likely candidate to be a Boss type monster because of the fact that the concept art released shows diagrams of several of her abilities; far more than any normal monster would have.

She looks extraordinarily horrible as some perverted hybrid between humanoid and spider demon. The legs look like human female thighs that are crammed down into some metal shoes (claws), and two "Frontal Blades" sticking out of her crotch. Most of these parts are uncovered by armour protection. The hind section is a soft abdomen creating two products: Sticky Slick, that impedes player movement, and Explosive Projectiles that disperse in a cluster around the player. Around this soft abdomen is a hard bone exoskeleton "ribcage"

In another concept artwork, she's found hanging by her legs in chains, with manacles attached to the legs themselves. She's more dressed, wearing a "dress-like" attire, with hints of her two Frontal Blades hidden underneath. Her face is also significantly more serene than the mad ghoul-like one she has in the shot with notes on it.

What type of significance these chains have, we'll have to wait and see...

Spells and Abilities

• Explosive Projectiles - Projectiles that disperse in a cluster around the player.
• Sticky Slick - Impedes player movement.

Background

Besides the fact that she lives in something that looks like a sewer, hanging from chains with skulls dangling around her, in her pretty dress, nothing is really known about the Mistress of Pain.

Development

The Mistress was originally only shown with the chains, and called the "Spider Queen" by the Diablo 3 community, but a few crumbles of information became available when the denoted concept art was released. The first work must have been on July 2003 or earlier, since concept art by Peter Lee is dated to this time.
