Cavalcadence plays Cadence 19: Green Bat #8 (All Zones Mode)
For anybody who's interested in custom Cadences (or other characters), the official NecroDancer FAQ has some info about creating custom characters, and even has a link to the pinned thread on the official forums, where people have posted some of their custom creations:

So I've been practicing Cadence Low Percent recently... and of course, this is when the game chose to send another Green Bat my way. ^^; Yep, once again, I only had a Dagger. =p
This time, though, I encountered the Green Bat on Zone 3... which is actually kind of scary. Because of Zone 3's wide open areas, the Green Bat's not limited to a small area surrounded by walls... but it can wander about pretty much anywhere. Which means to safely attack it, you kind of have to clear enemies from a much larger area... and even then, if the Green Bat wanders out of that area, you could end up attracting even more enemies... as you'll see in this video. ^^;;
Anyway, this Green Bat took me on quite a little adventure. I did eventually get the kill... though it did take me almost two minutes. Anyway, here's the video... hope you enjoy! =)
The Green Bat was encountered (Zone 3, Level 1) at around: 8:44
The mini-bosses and bosses I encountered during this run were:
Zone 1: Minotaur, Red Dragon, Gray Minotaur, and Deep Blues 1.
Zone 2: Nightmare, Red Dragon, Gray Direbat, and Coral Riff 2.
Zone 3: Blue Dragon, Green Banshee.
Some notes and possible points of interest:
0:07 Zone 1, Level 1
0:17 Mini-boss: Minotaur
0:35 Zone 1, Level 2
1:12 Mini-boss: Red Dragon
1:37 Leprechaun! The practical reason for triggering a Leprechaun early in a Low Percent run is so that it won't surprise you later (an unexpected Leprechaun could block a move you need to make to avoid damage, or cause other unexpected troubles). Oh, and yes, the Gold is kind of useless on a Low Percent run, but it's a fun and relatively easy way to increase your score, so I figured... why not? =)
1:46 Since I was working on a Low Percent run, and wouldn't have been able to pick up the Charm of Luck anyway, I purposely let the Leprechaun run away. =)
2:11 Zone 1, Level 3
2:34 Mini-boss: Gray Minotaur
2:46 Zone 1, Boss: Deep Blues 1
3:19 Flawless Victory!
3:24 Zone 2, Level 1
4:23 Mini-boss: Nightmare
4:50 Zone 2, Level 2
5:03 Mini-boss: Red Dragon
5:40 Zone 2, Level 3
7:07 Mini-boss: Gray Direbat
7:22 That Trapdoor turned out to be pretty useful here. =)
7:39 ...and here. =)
7:47 Zone 2, Boss: Coral Riff 2
8:38 Flawless Victory!
8:43 Zone 3, Level 1
8:44 Wait, was that...? That was a Green Bat! I better clear out some enemies before going after it, so it doesn't lead me into an area where I get Zone 3 swarmed. ^^;
9:03 Hmm, this could take a while...
10:01 Okay, done! Let's see how rusty I am with Cadence against Green Bats. =)
10:07 First coin multiplier lost (missed beat). Now that I think about it, since I lost the coin multiplier here anyway, maybe I should've just stopped on tiles near the Green Bat and waited for it to come to me...
10:14 First damage taken (Green Bat). Ow. =(
10:26 Mini-boss: Blue Dragon. Ack, the Green Bat led me a bit too far out of the safe area I cleared. =/
10:33 Things are looking a little dangerous, so maybe I'll see if I can get lucky with a bomb...
10:35 Woo! Green Bat bomb kill! =)
11:19 Zone 3, Level 2
11:55 Mini-boss: Green Banshee
12:27 Zone 3, Level 3
12:56 "You died! Press Up + Down to continue."
