Introducing the Task Force
The Seven Sages
Grandmasters of their respective Elements, ready to recover every forgotten spell in the depths of the abandoned civilization.
Gyhenz, the Pyromancer of the Fiery Wither's Domain, is an iron-willed Sage whose mastery of Fire allows him to perform some of the most beautiful pieces of magic in the world. Gyhenz demonstrates his exceptional magical ability to garner Mana from the air by restoring his Mana rapidly.
Glacias, the Cryomancer of the Frozen Forest and the Hydromancer of the Dark Oceans, is a calm and composed Sage who has high expertise in Water and Ice. As beautiful and flawless as a snowflake, Glacias prides herself in her efficiency of channeling Mana, which she attributes to her calmness.
Lothdew, the Druid of the Jungle of Life, is an elegant Sage who embodies Nature wholly, from flora to fauna. Just like Nature itself, she is an unfaltering fighter, surviving against all odds to blossom in a bleak world. Her ability to adapt propels her towards self-improvement and ultimately paralleling or even outshining the other Sages.
Illemana, the Wizard of Light, is one of the most powerful Sages to have walked this world. Due to his overachieving attitude, he uses disproportionally large amounts of Mana to cast his spells, albeit powerfully. Fortunately, he is extremely adept at storing Mana which, unlike others, is not a trait gained from patience or calmness but sheer expertise in magic.
Oakenstone, Geomancer of the Great Mountains and the Guardian of the Valley of the Mist, is the most physically capable Sage due to his exceptional endurance. His sturdy corporeal form allows him to capture huge amounts of Mana, which he skilfully uses to manipulate landscape to his advantage.
Zapridge, Electromancer of the Shrine of Potentia, uses his mastery of Lightning to redirect bolts to battle his foes. Nimble and fast, he charges his spells up with an enticing spark, which greatly enhances their destructive ability. Lightning and Mana exist together in a rather unstable equilibrium, causing Zapridge to be unable to store great amounts of Mana.
Casesburn, Aeromancer of the Black Desert, is one of the more mysterious Sages due to the lack of inhabitance of the land he established. While his ability to cast offensive spells may be lacking, he makes up using his superior mastery of the Wind to push and pull enemies around, which allows him to evade opponents with ease.
Behind the last stand
A world overrun.
A Prologue
A long time ago, the world was in a state of rapid development. Man’s invention of metal refinery brought about physical weapons with strength never seen before. Soon followed the harnessing of Magic present in the environment, known as Mana, by Man. During an expedition in Oakenstone Valley, a strange portal was uncovered, which spewed otherworldly creatures. They were referred to as the Eldritch - beings of the Otherworld. These beings were fast and mighty, and they quickly overpowered Man, despite their strong weaponry and advanced Magic. The millions upon millions of Eldritch quickly flooded the world, driving Man to the final standing fortress - Illemana, the House of Sages.
The Last Stand
Hundreds of years passed whilst Man was kept safe in Illemana, guarded by the Seven Sages - divine beings corporeal in the world in the form of a sort of body vessel. The resistance was unfortunately eventually futile, when it was discovered that Eldritch were beginning to infiltrate the fortress once thought infallible. Forced into a corner, the Seven Sages who once gave up hope became again determined to reclaim the land that was once theirs. In their first mission, they were to investigate the source of the Eldritch Corruption - Oakenstone Valley.
The Mission
Transporting themselves to a safe Clearing amongst the mountains, they were ready to lash out at the waves upon waves of Eldritch. Theoretically, the Seven Sages can defeat Eldritch and harness the Essence and Lux from the fallen creatures. With that, they would be able to break into more and more areas and recover lost pieces of Magic left behind in the abandoned civilization there.
The Game
You, the player, will be put in the shoes of one of the Sages to experience their struggle vanquishing the overflowing Eldritch. Can you brave the endless onslaught?
