Atrellya: An Initial Wave
Through the Demon-King Shrine and Supreme Etriath's riftmancy, a temporary portal is opened to the inhospitable lands of Atrellya...
The warning of five years may not be an empty threat. An initial wave arrives.

➤ Moonfallen: Witches and warlocks that serve the Serpent and Spider Demon Clans. You have a mission related to witchcraft: igniting Walpurgis now that the Citadel is weakened. Otherwise you serve... One or two of you may even be from the Elaide bloodline. A descendant of the first witch, of great magical potential and special not only in Atrellya but in the continent of Aegis. [CLOSED]
➤ Night Creatures: A reanimated corpse, created from one of the White Wolf's forbidden rituals (not necromancy, something else). You will be given direct orders from the leaders, serving loyally. You are on a timer but succeed and you may evolve into something more. [CLOSED]
➤ Demons (Royal Spider/Serpent Clans): The serpents are snakes, solitary and speak with silver tongues. Their fangs inject lethal venom. The spiders can be eccentric but not always, capable of producing rare, dense silk. Even in their human forms, they often have legs out of their back. [CLOSED]
- At 220 RPL you may put in a ticket for human form but this is no longer guaranteed, instead it will be a hidden vote by the Admin-team depending on activity and other factors!
The mechanics have changed slightly and the blade granted on ascension is now weaker due to player feedback. Human race & loss of Demon Racial.
➤ Unlike the secretive retrieval of Vdali's Heart, this mission comes with a more specific goal conveyed in-game. Whispers will have been heard, relating to the Holy Lands of Meranthe and Tower of Aetius. You may have come for selfish reasons, or even out of curiosity but there is an inherent pride in serving Atrellya. And the possibility that this could be a replica of how the great Petrakis Dynasty was toppled centuries ago by the Demon Sages. Of course the mission will be difficult, and as Ilysander says "you are expendable".
Further details will emerge in a State of Meranthe post indicating the Crescent Fortress' status and what options players have to halt Atrellya. After all, the world of Eternia is large and none of the continents are isolated. The world is ever moving in the background.
Inspiration:
Heart of Vdali mission.
It is recommended you watch this video (mainly the explanation), then read the speech to understand the nuances available to a Demon character.

Quote:"Meranthe,
We are not so unlike. Your countrymen worship the Spirit-King Enarr and his accomplices; we follow the Demon King, for he is the greatest among our kind. Your kingdoms.. how many of them there are.. often wage war for glory and conquest, and to uplift their ideals, a history soaked in blood no matter how you might try to dress it up. We often do the same.
Our difference lies only in our origins and how it defines us. We are Demons: Manifestations of the True Magic, the Deep Powers of the World. Our long lives are spent in personal advancement; we learn, evolve, and adapt when faced with any adversity, a relentless pursuit that has lifted Atrellya as a haven for our kind. You fear us as personifications of strength, what you are truly afraid of, for you know that your role is at risk as the inheritors of Eternia so long as we are present within it.
Your biggest advantage over our kind and why you have yet to succumb to extinction is the one thing we lack. Your familial bonds and your preference of operating within a society; the communities you form, friendships and beyond. Love. It is something we've learned to despise. It is not out of envy, but merely a difference in the fabric that makes us what we are.
But we are not foolish enough to ignore how this vulnerability has made you an organized threat. It is why we allow discourse with your kind in the first place, and the role of the Moonfallen Coven in liaising with your warlords and kings. Should you- yes you, a simple human- wish to pledge yourself to Atrellya, and study the greatest secrets of all that there is, then the Coven will judge your potential. Those that stand in our way will serve as sustenance and slaves. Those that join us might explore the depths of magic itself.
- Ilysander, the White Wolf Demon Sage
