Ezili

"Ezili is a wielder of dark arts and manipulator of Bloons. Beware."

- Bloons TD6 Ezili is a Hero in Bloons Tower Defense 6 who was added in the game in the 7.0 update. She uses dark voodoo magic to attack the bloons. Her attacks act similarly to the Alchemist, except the magic only punctures through 1 layer at a time. Since she attacks with magic, she can't pop Purple Bloons unless in range of a MIB Village. She, alongside Obyn Greenfoot, is one of the cheapest Heroes in the game, costing $510 on Easy, $600 on Medium, $650 on Hard, and $720 on Impoppable. Ezili can be unlocked for 3000.

Upgrades
Ezili will start upgrading herself every round upon placement. She earns more XP each round to unlock her next upgrade irrespective of how many bloons she pops. Her upgrades can also be immediately bought with cash, though the amount of cash required to purchase the next upgrade will typically increase as the upgrades get higher, making self-upgrading an important element for her overall power.

 * Sacrificial Totem - Generates a totem that grants extra pierce, extra range, extra attack and projectile speed, and Camo detection to all nearby towers, but also takes away 10 lives. Decreases to 1 life penalty upon reaching Ezili Level 16+.
 * MOAB Hex - Places a curse on a MOAB-Class Bloon, causing it to take constant damage until destroyed, spawning no children bloons while still giving the full cash amount. Affects up to ZOMGs and DDTs, but can affect BADs once Level 20 is reached.

Version History
No longer strips special properties off of Purple Bloons.
 * 8.0

Levels up at the rate of pre-8.0 Captain Churchill. MOAB Hex now jumps to the next-strongest target if the main target is destroyed before the duration expires. The amount of times it can jump is infinite, but duration stays the same.
 * 9.0

Level 4 splash AOE no longer centers around her if she destroys the target Bloon in one shot.

Trivia

 * Ezili is the first Hero in BTD6 to have three Activated Abilities instead of two.
 * She is currently the second monkey in the game with three abilities total, the first one being Heli Pilot.
 * Ezili is the third female Monkey in the game, alongside Gwendolin and the patch notes monkey.
 * Ezili is the only Hero in BTD6 who can automatically detect camo without upgrades or support.
 * Despite being the third Hero released in an update, Ezili earns XP faster than Captain Churchill and Benjamin in game.
 * Ezili's Sacrifical Totem is the only ability which takes away lives. (Bomb Shooter's Bomb Blitz is not an ability and depends on you to let a bloon leak.)
 * Level 20 Ezili can defeat a B.A.D. on her own with the MOAB Hex ability on any map, including the vertical paths on #Ouch.
 * Both Ezili and Obyn Greenfoot are magic-using heroes.
 * Coincidentally, they were also the cheapest heroes in the game before the 10.0 update.
 * Ezili is based on Ezili Dantor, a sort of spirit in Haitian voodoo.
 * The Heartstopper ability actually reuses the Grow Blocker effect onto Regrow Bloons. It does still make sense, since essentially some kind of energy is used to force no regrowth for Regrow Bloons.
 * If Ezili is placed since Round 1, she will only cost around $10k to immediately purchase Level 20, assuming no Monkey Knowledge enhancements have been bought already.
 * If the player has less than 10 lives in any game, the sacrificial totem will remain unusable
