Maliken Grimm has been the savior and the scourge of mankind, so powerful in his daemonic power that the Blind Prophet had to summon the Five Disciples and the Virtues to bring him back to Sol's flock. But one must wonder--is Maliken truly redeemed, or is this a ploy to gain access to the very heart of the Legion, his flesh and blood, Jeraziah and Ophelia?
Many worshippers of Zeus and the Greek gods believe the creatures from the Rift are reincarnations of mythological monsters like the Chimera. The brave and loyal warriors Pegasus and Bellerophon have been summoned from Mt. Olympus to battle these creatures and the Hellbourne, on land and in the skies!
As the Archaic Gods clamor for power and influence among the warriors of Newerth, Odin has sat upon his steed Sleipnir and felt oddly removed from it all. The revelation came when he witnessed King Jeraziah leading an attack of skirmishers in the blessed armor of the Disciple Omen. Of course! What leader can hope to gain respect when he is so removed from his soldiers? Odin immediately found a suitable stable for Sleipnir and strode to the battlefield in his footsoldier armor, prepared to demonstrate what the Allfather of the gods could do face-to-face.
Lured from her place in Olympus by the chaos of the Hellbourne, Hestia descends to restore faith and order to the Legion as they battle that which threatens their health and home. In her anger, Hestia calls upon the power of the hearth to ignite her enemies in shrouds of fire and surround them with the burning spirits of their ancestors.
The Halcyon Judicator is a noble, albeit contentious, authority figure, whose desire for ultimate honor and justice often ironically clouds his judgment. He has no patience for those who break his idea of the law, even if their intentions are pure or there are reasons behind their actions. He seeks to be the judge, jury, and executioner of criminals, taking orders from no one and punishing victims in ways he deems fit, without the consent of anyone else.
Hera still holds a grudge against Zeus's illegitimate son Hercules, and she has guided the Oracle of Delphi to add a thirteenth labor to the legendary hero's list: travel to Newerth and rid that world of the Hellbourne. When Hercules heard this command, he hefted his massive club and cheered at the prospect of fighting alongside his father and sending daemons back to the underworld.
Just as his father deemed to walk among the Legion soldiers as an equal, Thor decided his common, barbaric appearance was robbing him of respect and adulation. He returned to Asgard and chose his finest armor, polished to a blinding brightness, and rejoined his loyal troops wearing battle garb worthy of a god.
Medusa has long sought revenge against Athena for transforming her into a hideous creature, and her gorgeous new warpaint signifies a fair warning to the goddess of so-called justice that she had better armor up when they next meet on Newerth.
The POGS avatars are here! These high definition skins will be released one-per-patch and will be available via the store, Plinko, or both, depending upon the region.
