Melia
Attempt to resurrect the dead kingdom of Therodos.
—
Class Description
Though mighty Therodos had fallen centuries ago a small remnant attempts to establish a new kingdom and revive their former rulers, the Telkhine. A Melia has forsaken her divine lineage and attempts ritualistic experimentations with sacrifices to revive the trapped rulers, while Ephor’s lead the spectres of Therodos into Elysium.
The spectres of Therodos are peculiar as they are still learning to accept their ghostly visage. While dead they are not lifeless, but due to this it has been difficult to convince humans to join the burgeoning kingdom as they are distrustful of the spectres lining the walls of the new colony.
Though the Melia is caught up in her sacrificial research she still makes time to practice the dances of her people. These war dances are ancient and sacred, imbuing the Melia with temporary boones in combat.
Special Abilities
- Melia can perform dances before battle to gain temporary buffs.
- Melia can create a special citadel in deep seas.
