A self-assured brute and military aide to the old king, Wyvern Rampage is no stranger to the battlefield. Starting as a mounted soldier and working his way up through bloody victories, he quickly gained the appreciation of the royal family, and was rewarded with special missions that involved finding dragon dens, raiding them of their stolen loot, and slaughtering the dragons inside. He was allowed to keep half of every bounty he found, and sometimes wears the restored armor as a practical trophy. He has no qualms about turning Newerth into his new "stomping grounds."
When the giant horror Typhon descended upon Mount Olympus, two fish guided Aphrodite and Eros through the churning waters and helped them escape to safety. These fish were raised to the heavens and became the constellation Pisces, and there they have remained until the cries of the innocents across Newerth compelled them to return. This time, however, they will not simply guide fleeing refugees to safety-they will harness the unstoppable power of water and use it to drown the monsters who threaten god and man.
Side note: Pisces is said to be a representation of the difficulty in extracting the good from that which appears bad. Because of this, Pisces is now our Lead Forum Administrator.
Venus de Bubbles is a lifelong friend and student of the living constellation Aquarius, and when her mentor joined the fight against the daemons Venus was eager to follow, both to learn the ways of the world outside of her protective sea and to make sure no harm comes to Aquarius.
Known throughout Newerth as "The Weeping Woman," La Llorona is a ghastly spectre who haunts the areas surrounding the Inner Sea. She does not pose a threat if viewed from a distance, but within her vicinity, the Banshee of Blood will erupt with anger and jealousy, spewing forth the souls of drowned children from her gaping mouth and piercing the sky with her shrieks of existential dread.
The Hellbourne's Shock Troop War Beasts are chosen from the ranks for their complete lack of fear and what seems like a manic desire to die in battle. They are the first wave of soldiers sent against the Legion phalanxes and fortifications with the sole mission of killing as many enemies as they can before they die. Once they are slain, their stacked bodies provide convenient ramps for walls and filling for ditches so those who follow can claim the glory of victory.
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.
