Might & Magic Heroes VI will take place in 564 YSD*, roughly some 400 years before Might & Magic Heroes V, at the time of the second Blood Moon Eclipse, and the Rise of Kha Beleth, the Demon Sovereign.
A legendary Archangel General, killed during the war of the Elder races, is resurrected. Under the cover of preparations for the upcoming Demon invasion, he plots to recover his powers and take control of Ashan while eradicating his ancient enemies. He underestimates, however, the power of the all-too-human Griffin dynasty...
Heroes VI tells the story of the Griffin dynasty, when they were still Dukes of the Holy Empire, and not yet sitting on the Imperial throne (like in Heroes 5 and Clash of Heroes). The Griffin Duchy is east of the Empire, a region that would correspond to the Slavic nations in our own world.
At the dynasty's origins, The Griffin Duke Pavel* was a zealous servant of the Light and a trusted lieutenant of the Falcon Emperor. He met his demise defending his own duchy from a Demon host summoned by the dying wish of a desperate enemy. Pavel's heroic last stand would ensure the survival of his son, Slava, who was only a boy at the time of these events.
Pavel's sister Sveltana*, who had left her homeland to become a prominent Necromancer in the Seven Cities, was called back to act as regent to Slava and educate him in the ways of the Griffin.
Fifteen years and a war have past. Duke Slava of Griffin is now the father of five promising children. These are the main Heroes of the Heroes 6 campaign, and they will lead different factions to battle.
(*) The current reckoning of years in Ashan is YSD – Year of the Seventh Dragon. All dates are reckoned from the day when the legendary prophet Sar-Elam achieved enlightenment and underwent apotheosis, becoming known as the Seventh Dragon. Before that, little is recorded, though it is certain, from the ruins of ancient civilizations that dot the landscape, that Ashan is thousands of years old.
001. Duke Slava's Story:
Raised by his Aunt, the Necromancer Sveltana, after the death of his father when he was only a boy, Slava nonetheless managed to grow a rash but good-natured young man. Taking up the title of Duke of Griffin when he came of age, Slava now leads a strong House, and has five healthy, determined children who he is certain will do the Griffin name proud. The fact that the eldest one is a bastard born by his first true love, Elisabeth - a woman the Emperor Liam forbid he marry - has pained him greatly. Wars and enmities have taken their toll on him and his legitimate wife, Cate, and he prays to Elrath, the Dragon of Light, that the politicking that is beyond his control will not consume his family.

Specialization: Natural Born Leader
002. Anastasya's Story:
Anastasya is the youngest daughter of Duke Slava and Dutches Cate of Griffin, and the twin-sisters of Kiril, with whom she shares a deep bond, despite long years of relative separation (they studied under different tutors at the behest of the Emperor). Charming, happy, trusting... She would have been all these things had it not been for a single accursed moment: the assassination of her father by her own hand. In spite of the intervention of her mentor, the legendary Archangel Uriel, pledging the crime was not of her own willing, she is delivered to the Holy Inquisition, and summarily executed by her elder brother Anton. She only becomes aware of these bleak events when she is brought back as one of the Unliving by her Great-Aunt Sveltana, a practitioner of the mysterious arts of necromancy. Shocked and disbelieving, Anastasya's fledgling denial rapidly transform to grim acceptance and then into a cold, burning desire to clear her name by discovering who manipulated her, and how.
Job: Necromancer (Magic)
Specialization: Ghoul Rouser (+2 Movement for Ghouls)
003. Anton's Story:
First legitimate child of Duke Slava and Duchess Cate of Griffin, through his childhood Anton enjoyed all the privileges – and sacrifices – such a position bestows. Instructed in religion, politics, leadership, and combat, Anton grew up a quiet, serious child, groomed for one purpose alone: to one day inherit the Griffin Duchy and become Duke himself. Aside from a babble of mysterious voices that plagued his early years but were eventually muted with the help of Jorgen, one of his father's councilors, Anton was contented with his lot until political maneuverings saw his sister, Irina, forced to wed the despicable Duke Gerhart of the Wolf Duchy. Bitter, but unable to confront his father for his staunch fidelity to the emperor, Anton's brooding is only broken when Slava is shockingly murdered at the hand of his other daughter, Anastasya. With the old voices back and blaming the Faceless, and knowing he will now never resolve his differences with his father, the newly crowned Duke is a very angry and vengeful Griffin.
Job: Knight
Specialization: Griffin Master (+15% damage increase to Dive attacks)
004. Irina's Story:
Sewing, music, poetry. Irina, the eldest daughter of Duke Slava and Duchess Cate of Griffin, couldn't care less about these traditional female pursuits.
Instead, together with her rough-and-tumble half-brother, Sandor, Irina enjoyed the broadest of possible educations, even convincing the Orc Kraal, master-of-arms of House Griffin, to teach her the ways of the wild and the art of warfare.
Feisty and headstrong, Irina's already limited tolerance for her assigned role in Imperial society was broken the day she was forcibly betrothed to Gerhard, the odious Duke of Wolf.
On her wedding night, he attacked her violently and she in turn wounded him greviously. Imprisoned in the Wolf's fetid dungeons, Irina was determined to die rather than apologize to the tyrant. But she was freed by Sandor, and they both escaped to the south-eastern islands of the Jade Ocean.
Stranded in the heart of Naga territory, Irina finds herself a stranger in a strange land, but with the means to get her revenge on Gerhart and the Holy Emperor himself.

005. Kiril's Story:
Youngest son of Duke Slava and Duchess Cate of Griffin, Kiril was born on the same day as his sister, Anastasya. Like most twins they share a deep bond, and despite long years of separation (they studied under different tutors at the behest of the Emperor), Kiril still feels a strong affinity for her.
A quick learner with a dark, dry sense of humor and an appreciation of the absurd, Kiril's imposed distance from Anastasya was much alleviated by studying under the legendary Archangel, Sarah, whom he greatly respects and adores -and who in turn admires him.
When he witnesses a magically-controlled Anastasya slay their own father, Kiril's rage is tempered by his tutor, the Archangel Sarah, who provides him with strength as well as a risky plan to descend into Sheogh...
Job: Heretic
Specialization: Acolyte of Fortune (+2 Destiny)
006. Sandor's Story:
Born a bastard, raised a bastard. Sandor is the illegitimate child of Duke Slava and his mistress, Elisabeth, and has always felt as much.
Although he is too proud to show his hurt, the principle emotion that rules his life is a deep-seated feeling of rejection. Despite inheriting his father's sense of justice and loyalty, and his mother's fearless intensity, he never really found his place in the Griffin Duchy and grew up a troublemaker.
He found solace in the company of the Orc Kraal, master-of-arms of House Griffin, and his half-sister, Irina, in whom he sees a kindred spirit if not more.
When Irina is married off to the wicked Duke of the Wolf Duchy, Sandor, livid at his father's complicity in the union, decides to leave the Holy Empire to forge his own destiny in Kraal's homeland across the Jade Ocean. First, though, he will pay his sister one last visit...

007. Eduardo's Story:
As the seventh son of the Duke of the Bull, Eduardo received a proper education, martial and religious training, and the promise that he would inherit nothing. Striking out for adventure, determined to make a name for himself, he fought alongside Emperor Liam in the War of the Bitter Ashes against the Elves of Tuidhana. Though Eduardo's contribution was outstanding, even showing a certain knack for forest warfare, his army was massacred during a night bivouac by Elven assassins. The tragedy left him emotionally and psychologically scarred. Turning towards Elrath for consolation, Eduardo sheathed his sword and took up the robes of priesthood.

008. Eileen's Story:
Lady Eileen first became famous for bringing identical triplets into the world. This miraculous blessing from Elrath was soon defiled, as her three sons were captured by mercenaries seeking ransom, and held captive for seven years. During this period, when Emperor Liam himself offered a tremendous reward for the children's return, Eileen turned to Elrath for guidance and became an extremely devout priestess. Upon the eventual return of her children and the beheading of their captors, however, she learned her sons were far from the gentle Angels that she had once known, and they were sent to the schools of the Inquisitors for a desperate reeducation. Eileen continues to see them regularly, but she places firmer trust in prayers to Elrath and the guidance of the Church for their upbringing than her personal attention. Eileen's secret rage at the turn of fate in her life has given her an extremely pragmatic, if not expedient, sense of justice.
Job: Cleric
Specialization: Heal Master
009. Rosalie's Story:
Discovered in a rose bush in front of a church of Elrath, Rosalie was raised by the Vestals of the Greyhound Duchy.
In spite of her natural talents regarding all things spiritual, she was a rebellius child who often went missing. Having run away from her foster parents a dozen times in her early years, she claimed that she had caught the scent of her mother and went after it.
After years of fruitless searching and a near brush with death, Rosalie settled down sufficiently enough to finish her training and receive her priestly robes. She continually searches for clues that might lead her to her real parents, and has become an expert on maps, lore and impossible investigations. Her counsel is often sought when someone or something has gone missing.

010. Lord Haart's Story:
A protege of the House of Stag, Lord Haart showed his mettle from a young age, fighting as Lord Kieran's squire during the Elven Wars when he was only thirteen winters old.
After Lord Kieran's mysterious disappearance, Lord Haart dedicated himself even more wholly to the ways of the sword, becoming the youngest Knight to ever walk the entire Duchy - not to mention one of the bravest.
When Cate returned to the Stag Duchy to mount a search for her lost brother, Lord Haart did everything he could to help, even trekking the Antlered forest alone, where he was almost killed by a pack of Dire Wolves for his trouble.
Gossip has it that when the rambunctious innkeep, Bardon Fleece, mocked the renowned Knight for recitence in discussing his experiences during the Elven Wars, Lord Haart gave the man an impromptu change of dress - with the tip of his blade from three paces.
Job: Knight
Specialization: Natural Born Leader
011. Maximus' Story:
Maximus is indubitably the most unusual Knight of the Holy Empire. His grandfather, an Orc slavemaster serving the Holy Empire, refused to follow Kunyak during the Orc Crusades. The great liberator respected his choice - sparing his life, but breaking his legs.
Due to his family's poor reputation among the Orcs, Maximus knew he could never hope to join his people in the steppes or the islands, so he decided to make himself a pace in the Empire instead - first as a servant, then as a squire to an old, wise knight who recognized his talents. The turning point in his life came at the great tournament of Falcon's Reach.
The Emperor had promised knighthood and lands to the winner. Maximus defeated all his opponents, his popularity magnified with each successful match. By the contest's end, he was acclaimed as "the greatest", and the Emperor had little recourse but to grant the Orc the promised rewards.
Maximus has served the Empire loyally ever since.

One day, she ventured higher than usual and was caught in a snowstorm. The blizzard raged for three consecutive days, and her parents thought their treasured daughter was lost forever. But on the morning of the fourth day, as the sky was finally clearing, the Angel Eliora appeared, holding the girl in her arms.
The Angel revealed that she had followed a beacon of light that seemed to radiate from within the storm, and had found Adelaide. To the celestial being, it was proof that the girl had been choosen by Elrath to become a Priestess of the Light.
Job: Cleric
Specialization: Master of Light
013. Umberto's Story:
Umberto is no ordinary priest of Elrath: while his faith unquestionnable, he sees the world with a much more pragmatic and tolerant eye than his fellow members of the Church of Light. Umberto is known for his open-mindness when it comes to discussing philosophical questions, and his razor-sharp skills of deduction. While he has made a few enemies amoung the ranks of the Inquisition, he also has the support of many local priests who do not approve the rise of bigotry in the Empire. A scholar at heart, Umberto likes nothing more than a new book to read, a new road to walk and Elrath's light to make the world a nicer, brighter place.
Job: Cleric

014. Lady Cordelia's Story:
Serving as a crusader under the Holy Inquisition, Lady Cordelia commands the fortress guarding the ravine of Nelsham's Scar on the southern boder of the Bull Duchy.
It is said that Cordelia is the only woman who has ever pierced the hard heart of the Great Inquisitor Salvatore - not through any womanly charms mind you, but rather via her uncompromising faith in Elrath, with wich she has condemned many a heretic's soul to a slow and gruesome death.
For her accomplishments, Cordelia was tasked with keeping an eye on the Necromancers settling the Heresh Valley beyond the Scar. She couldn't have dreamt of a better reward.
Job: Knight
Specialization: Stand Your Ground Master
015. Karloff's Story:
Karloff was born the son of the Baron Piotr, banished from the Griffin lands by the Duke Pavel for his peculiar sense of justice – one involving sharp stakes and barbed whips. Piotr was immediately accepted into the Wolf Duchy and tasked with the administration of the Duke's secret slave mines. Karloff inherited the responsibility upon the mysterious death of his father, and production was doubled under him, a result of his harsh but just treatment of the slaves which contrasted against his father's acrimonious abuse.
As a result, Karloff was awarded the title of Master Engineer by a young Duke Gerhart. The only scandal which has ever concerned Karloff came after his refusal to attend Piotr's funeral.

016. Martina's Story:
One of Gerhart's most loyal servants, Martina is a well-decorated Knight from the Wolf Duchy who seems more than happy to be part of any conflict that places the House of Wolf in opposition to the House of Griffin.
Rumor has it that this personal animosity stems from an incident in her childhood when her father was reputedly forced to dance in pig swill for the amusement of a high-ranking Griffin.
Job: Knight
Specialization: Marksman Master (Piercing Bolts ignore friendly target)
017. Lord Killburn's Story:
Born to a noble family in the Unicorn Duchy, Lord Killburn grew up a happy, privileged child, gifted with a single, peculiar talent: a meticulous eye for detail.
Entertaining parlor tricks - counting the number of buttons on a lady's dress in a blink of the eye, stating how many flagons of ale the serving lad had spilled over the night, for example - were the harmless fruits of this ability until the Inquisition enlisted Lord Killburn's help in the wake of the Blind Brother's prophecy heralding the return of the Faceless, the dreaded children of Malassa the Dragon of Darkness.
Unquestioningly drawing up detailed lists of the hundreds upon hundreds of common folk he had encountered during travels through imperial lands, Lord Kilburn's jovial nature was shattered when he realized his very lists were being used to round up suspected Faceless on evidence as scant as the presence of a black cat.

018. Javed's Story:
Javed sought knowledge on the ancient Shantiri civilization in his efforts to recreate animated constructs, considered their most impressive works of magic.
The necessity to build a servient army for the protection of the Seven cities had become apparent since the revolt of the Orcs and the evasion of nearly all of their Beastman slaves.
From the ruins of Irollan to the underground caverns of the Savage Sea, Javed traveled as much of Ashan as the famous explorer Aguirre, whom he met one sunny afternoon for mint tea in a tavern in the Free Castle of Hammer Fall.
Aguirre and Javed, both impassioned by their individual quests, became friends and it is said that they were perhaps the only friend either one of them truly ever made.
After a long and heated debate, Javed saw the potential for protecting the Seven Cities with the creation of Undead armies.
Though not as religiously dedicated as Aguirre, he quickly mastered the power to animate Skeletons and Ghouls, and is considered the expert in this domain by the cultist of the Spider Goddess.
It is said that upon Aguirre's destruction, his ghost paid Javed a final visit, promising to meet him again in the next life.

019. Zenda's Story:
Zenda was the first child born to Wizards who were ferven believes in the Spider Goddess. A great deal of "dark" hopes were placed on her shoulders in her early years.
The High Necromancer Miranda herself was chosen as her godmother, and she was given a permanent retinue of sworn Vampire Knights for protection.
During her first encounter with the Mother Namtaru- a baptism ceremony where her feet were washed in sacred venom and the education of her soul pledged to the sect- the Avatar of Asha put everyone at ease: "The child's fate belongs to no one. The Choice of Life or Unlife she will make when the Moon bathes in blood and a sword steals her heart.".
Zenda was returned to Al-Betyl where she received a Wizard's education and religious indoctrination from her parents. The ominous prediction from the Mother Namtaru has been nearly forgotten by many, though her parents and other Important members of the Cult have sought for years to divine its meaning.
Zenda herself continues to live a happy life and, though she is extremely competent in necromancy, she has yet to decide whether she will make the transition into the body of an Unliving.

Qamar was recruited into the Cult of the Spider Goddess by the powerful Death Lord Haffayad, the day Qamar's young bride died.
The beautiful girl was also Haffayad's sister. She was murdered by a jealous Wizard.
Haffayad was able to revive his sister before Qamar's startled, incredulous eyes, but she pleaded to Qamar to be allowed to pass on. She was pregnant, and the soul of their child would be trapped in her body for eternity.
Deeply saddened by this tragic turn of events, Qamar swore to Haffayad that he would not rest until he found the reincarnation of the woman so dear to both of their hearts, even should it take forever to do so.
Haffayad became close to his brother-in-law and made certain that he received the best necromantic education.
Qamar is now considered one of the most determined Necromancers ever to walk the face of Ashan. The Wizard who murdered his wife is now said to serve him as a loyal Ghoul.

021. Siham's Story:
Siham was a Wizard obesssed with spirits, which she captured and collected like trophies. She spent years of her life hunting Namtaru Fate Spinners in the southern deserts of Sahaar. This led her to a violent encounter with the Necromancer Aguirre.
Aguirre stormed into Siham's mansion to free the captive Namtarus, and blasted her into unconsciousness with a powerful mind spell.
When Siham awoke she could no longer see clearly, her vision partially blurred by a permanent imprint of the spirit world. Siham realized that the veil was actually a blessing, for she could now see Ghosts and spiritual creatures as clearly as though they were fully materialized.
It also become clear to her that it was wrong to bind and torment the Fates, for they were beautiful treasures of Shan with four legs in the real and four legs beyond.
She thus rallied to the cause of Aguirre and the Cult of the Spider Goddess, and is now personally tending to the Mother Namtaru as an interpreter of her cyptic visions.

At this poin, Deras ben, extremely fond of his prized student, sent her into hiding in his native Castle, Al-Beryl, fearing that the High Mages of the Seven Cities would side with Emperor Liam, and that she would be imprisoned as a sign of their "good faith".
While hiding in a luxurious cellar, Scatha became acquainted with the Cult of the Spider Goddess. There is a great deal of mystery surrounding her conversion, but she stands devout and trusted by both the Mother Namtaru and the Necromancer Sveltana.

023. Sir Jaywood's Story:
Sir Jaywoods, formerly a knight of the Unicorn Duchy, will tell you that he chose to become a Vampire because there's more life in a half-dozen ghosts than a hundred living, breathing townsfolk, which is quite possibly not far from the truth.
Sir Jaywood is obsessed with the future, a fascination that was sparked by his father's passion for history. He wants to know who will rule Ashan in five hundred years, what the constant discoveries of arcane magic might bring, and whether there will always be space for chivalrous men such as himself.
Becoming an immortal Vampire was one way to find out. He wagers that life will remain cruel and bloody whatever the age, but he's happy to hunt Demons while he waits to find out for sure.

He confronted Malik, hoping to bring him back to reason, but his brother was too far gone and did not hesitate stabbing him in the back, leaving him to rot in the burning desert.

Naturally attuned to the mystical forces inhabitating the world, Luna was trained to become a Druid, but the young Elf could not find Harmony, to the other Druids, she seemed restless, unpredictable, unreliable. She finally found peace in the most unexpected way: by drinking the venom of the Mother Namtaru and embracing Undeath. Reborn as a Vampire, Luna is definitely a defender of Harmony- though her understanding of the term is very different from what she was taught as a Druid. For Luna, Harmony comes from the silence of Death.

During this time, her reputation grew steadily, and she was eventually hired by a traveling scholar, a Necromancer called Javed. She accompanied him in his quest to find the lost secrets of the Shantiri, and soon saw the obvious advantages of becoming an immortal vampire.

027. Moander's Story:
One would say Monder is a survivor- if he wasn't technically dead.
A respected and charismatic general in the Bull Duchy, he was bored by the countless political intrigues of peacetime. Maybe that's why he let his guard down, allowing a rival to poison him with deadly Manticore venom. Discovering he would die in a matter of hours, Moander quickly devised a desperate plan to cheat death.
He managed to obtain a vial of Namtaru venom, the substance imbibed by Necromancers to become immortal Vampires, from the black market of Vradek's Crossing, which he drank without thinking twice. The mixture of the two venoms had a devastating effect on his body, searing his skin and withering his flesh.
Transformed into an Undead, he now looked like a raggedy corpse, a walking skeleton; at least, though, he was "alive", and had his revenge on his murdered. Moander then fled the Empire to join the ranks of the Necromancers, where his skills as a general made him as popular as he was during his lifetime.

The "problem" turned out to be an Orc invasion, yet Kenage made rather short work of it by swimming up to their camp under cover of nightfall and capturing their Shaman.
He served the Eternal Empress as a professor of wartime strategy for two decades in the prestigious Nariya Military Dojo, before establishing his own Dojo on a ship.
Today, he sails the Jade Ocean and beyond in search of skirmishes and wars, which he asserts can teach more to his students than a thousand lessons on parchment. A loyal detachment of Wanizame accompanies him always and would die for their Master, who they claim can breathe underwater.

Hitomi was present on the day the legendary Daimyo Manowa placed an order for a particular quartet of swords. The four-armed Naga War Master desired weapons that would function just as well underwater as above. Hitomi and her father worked for seven years forging, testing and enchanting their steel in every extreme condition imaginable.
Manowa was delighted and paid for the masterworks with four cups of pearls. However, he returned a year later and drove two of the swords through the blacksmith's heart, killing him instantly. He had lost a battle with pirates and claimed that the swords were useless above the waves.
Hitomi pulled the weapons from her father's breathless chest and challenged a dozen of Manowa's finest warriors to successive duels, besting them all. With proof of the weapons's superiority demonstrated, Manowa made reparation for his error and cut off two of his fingers, presenting them to Hitomi.
It is said she wears them on a necklace to this very day.

Zhaoyu comes from the eastern islands of the Jade Ocean, and is of peculiar descent: his father Sheng was a Human merchant, but his mother was a Naga.
Desperately in love with the snake-woman despite their being of different species, Sheng challenged his beloved's father to obtain the right to marry her. Tragically, Sheng was killed during the duel. Heartbroken, the Naga woman gave her life to Shalassa in exchange for the resurrection of her Human lover.
The Dragon-Goddess of Water accepted her offering but, deeply moved by the selflessness of her love, Shalassa asked Asha to reincarnate them both as Human babies.
It took twenty years and many more adventures to reunite the two lovers, but Zhaoyu was eventually born as testament to their devotion.

036. Kalindra's Story:
Calling herself a princess, Kalindra boasts that she can trace her ancestry back to the lost Shantiri civilization. But then again, so too can most of the denizens of southern Ashan in one way or another.
Her golden skin and ebony hair, not to mention her taste in luxurious clothes and jewels, have rendered her quite the attraction in the courts of the lords of the Free Cities. Against all odds, it was her extravagant way of life that brought her to the attention of a priestess of Shalassa, who instantly understood that this noble-blooded lady was in fact marked by the Dragon Goddess of Water.
It tested the venerable snake-lady's untold patience to convince Kalindra to come to the temple and become a disciple, but she eventually succeeded. In truth, the young woman had finally grown tired of the vanity of her life and felt ready at last to start a new life of asceticism.

037. Atlas's Story:
Atlas was born and raised on the island of Hashima, in one of the many Human villages belonging to the Lotus Empire. His impressive size earned him the nickname of "mountain".
Atlas was prepared to live a peaceful life as the town's carpenter, until one fateful day, when the Daimyo Hitokage stopped in the village. During the festivities held in honor of the Snake-Lord, Atlas defeated the Daimyo's personal champion in a contest of hand-to-hand combat.
Hitokage was amused and impressed by the natural talents displayed by Atlas, and offered to take the Human with him to train in the art of combat.
While he has regularly impressed the Nagas with his skills on the battlefield or the wrestler ring, Atlas equally gained their respect for his craftsmanship as a master-builder, sculptor and artisan.

038. Ciele's Story:
Ciele is unmistakeably an Elf, but she wasn't born in the shadows of the great trees of Irollan. Ciele was raised on the sea, upon one of the house-ships of her nomadic kindred, the Sea Elves, who worship both Sylanna (for her gifts) and Shalassa (for her hospitality).
A long time ago these Elves belonged to the Shantiri Empire, but now they are gypsies of the ocean, wandering the seas of Ashan on makeshift vessels hewn from trees and wrought into boats. Each Sea Elf belongs to a particular clan, called the "crew", to which he or she remains fiercely loyal.
Ciele is the last of her own crew, sundered and destroyed when a tidal wave wrecked their house-ship. She was saved by the Nagas, and now considers them her new family.

A Pao Islands Orc who feels the invisible threads of power more than most, Ruqav was the natural replacement for his tribe's spiritual leader when the previous Shaman died of old age.
Aware that a great force shifts restlessly beneath his tribe's island, Ruqav is deeply concerned that the mutual respoect between Orcs and Nagas, that existed when Okane was Daimyo, has been shattered by the rise of the new Daimyo, Hiroshi.
With rumors spreading of a Necromancer invasion of landward islands to the north, Ruqav spends every twilight scouring the horizon for the return of Ulagan, hesitant to ally with the Nagas in case of trickery.

041. Lamia's Story:
Lamia has been a Succubus for so long that her current incarnation is older than those of all the current Princes of Sheogh.
Once a Shantiri Priestess during the height of the ancient empire, she is said to have seen it all and done even more. Lamia's reasons for becoming a Succubus seemed to have stemmed from a wager with the Arch-Demon Azkaal, who was warring against the Angels and rapidly rising to his future title of Prince of Destruction. It is taken for granted in Sheogh that Lamia lost the bet, but Azkaal might argue the contrary.
Three decades later, in the fateful battle that saw Azkaal defeated by the Archangels Michael and Sarah, Lamia was by his side as his magical protector and consort.
She is said to have smiled for the first time in 30 years when Azkaal's soul was whisked away and trapped in a powerful artifact which she herself had crafted.

042. Vendela's Story:
Vendela immigrated to the Bull Duchy from the Free City of Hammer Fall, a town renowned for its infamous Bloodsmiths. These craftsmen are capable of inserting the legendary dragonblood crystals into master weapons, instilling them with powerful magical powers.
Vendela brought with her the reputation of an able artisan, and acquired an impressive list of nobles as clients. Her work was soon brought to the attention of Connor Falcon, the Holy Emperor himself.
The Archangel Sarah was the first to cast the shadow of doubt upon Vendela, suspecting the crystals she was using bore the mark of Sheogh. After a missive was sent to the newly restored church of Elrath in Hammer Fall, the elders and Bloodsmiths responded, attesting that they had never heard of the imposter, and that she was most certainly a fraud.
In truth, Vendela was inserting Chaos shards – particularly dangerous strains of blood crystals – into the finest weapons, and hence the most trustworthy sword-arms, of the Holy Empire. Vendela escaped the imperial detachment that was sent to imprison her, killing half of them with two frightful hammers of her own confection. She has resurfaced only recently.

043. Jeddite's Story:
Jeddite was a powerful Wizard with an affinity for Fire magic. His love for all things burning grew to become an obsession, to the point where the other Wizards began to think of him as dangerous. It wasn't long before Jeddite became a servant of Abaddon, the Demon Prince of Destruction. One day, while staring at the fire consuming his master's tower (with his master still inside it), Jeddite had a vision of a knight in fiery armor. The man presented himself as Kha-Beleth, the Prince without a throne, and said he had plans for the fallen Wizard.
Kha-Beleth removed Jeddite from the path of mindless Destruction to make him a servant of greater goals instead. Some say on this occasion Jeddite saw what was hidden under Kha-Beleth's helmet, but he has always refused to comment on this rumor. Jeddite is now building a secret society of worshippers of Chaos inside the Seven Cities.

Nebiros – a servant of the Overlord of Proliferation, Ur-Aazheel – forms part of a cadre of Demons who protect the Breeder Queen, ensuring Sheogh's numbers are always swelling.
Although he is a smart, cunning Demon, it is to Nebiros' misfortune and eternal chagrin that, on account of his armor, he shares aesthetic similarities with Veyer, one of the most slow-witted denizens in the whole of Sheogh, and is often mistaken for the simpleton.
The next Demon who asks him if he wants to play "Fifty-Two Card Pickup" may well get a sharp instrument up a suitable orifice.

And to prove it, she'll gladly invite you to test out her latest mechanical contraption; a machine that's liable to flay or burn or sear your skin in never-before-imagined ways. Not without a smile, of course.
Being a Master of Fire Magic, she could happily talk for hours about the difference between a burn and a scorch or a brand and a scald, but she'd much rather show you.

046. Tynan's Story:
Tynan was born a large and healthy baby to farmers of the Stag Duchy who had immigrated to escape the wars of consolidation during the founding of the Falcon Empire.
His parents succumbed to the great famine of the year 12 YSD, but the child was taken in by a local Baron and raised as a servant in his household.
Tynan was incredibly tall and strong, and assumed to be dimwitted because of his lumbering gait and amiable manners. During the Wars of Fire when the Demons seized the opportunity to invade the weakened realms of Ashan, recovering from the Elder Wars, Tynan had become an unremarkable bodyguard who followed the Baron like a sheepdog following a farmer. During a formal visit to the Duke of the Unicorn, Tynan surprised everyone by crushing the Duke's head against a stone table.
A Demon Prince who had grown rather fond of his brilliant spy and extremely clever confidant had Tynan reincarnated after his subsequent execution in the form of a handsome incubus. Tynan has remained loyal to him since... though no one knows precisely which Prince he serves or how he was initially recruited.

047. Malik's Story:
Malik, a powerful Emir whose lands lie between Al-Rubit and the borders of the Holy Falcon Empire, surprised everyone when, after the Bloodmoon Eclipse, he declared himself a servant of Urgash, the Dragon of Chaos.
Extremely wealthy, even for a lord of the Seven Cities, he has financed the works of several Wizards studying the forbidden magic of Chaos. His ambition is motivated by a desire to destroy the civilisation of his peers, whom he claims are decadent and unfocused. The fact that his father nearly lost everything his family owned because of an uncontrollable penchant for gambling explains, in part, his fascination with the Demons of Sheogh, who are the masters of luck.

048. Lorhish's Story:
Once kennel master to Emperor Connor himself, Lorhish now plies his trade in the heart of Sheogh running a Cerberus kennel. A man of principle, this transformation in allegiance, if not vocation, came about when Lorhish refused a direct order from his Emperor to hunt down some young Orcs who were stealing apples from his orchards.
Dismissed from his post and facing grim prospects, Lorhish hit the ale hard until a mysterious beauty promised him a new life for a few details about an Imperial Hunt scheduled for the end of the month on a visit to the Greyhound Duchy.
Lorhish accepted her offer, and the result was an attack on the hunting party that left half of the Imperial Court dead. Tortured for his involvement in the plot, Lorhish died from his wounds, but never revealed the identity of the woman – a fact that seemed to account for his resurrection under her command in Sheogh.

049. Nymus's Story:
Foreknowledge of the true name of a Demon is necessary to summon it, and some Demons, weary of being forced to carry out the petty schemes of mediocre sorcerers, have taken to perpetually using an alias.
Nymus, which means "No Name", is the most widespread of these fake identities. Not very fond of violence herself, this Nymus is best known in Sheogh as a master trainer, having earned the begrudging respect of even the most battle-hardened Pit Lords, who've discovered they can still learn a trick or two from the Succubus.
Nymus also possesses a great sense of honor, always repaying her debts, which has given credence to the theory that she may have lived in the Lotus Empire in her former life.

Flinty and flirtatious, Daeva is finding life in Sheogh nothing like the dance over hot coals she feared it might be.
In fact, compared to the turmoils of her living years – a violent, abusive father, her subsequent murder of this depraved man, her capture by slavers which led to further defilement, a meeting with Demon cultists which got her sent to the jails of the Inquisition and a slow, painful death – she considers her days in Urgash's realm wicked fun.

Matewa had completed his initiatory dreamwalk by the age of six and wears no twisted or mutated marks from the experience, save for a lightning-shaped scar that crosses his whole chest.

053. Arrio's Story:
The baby Arrio was rescued from a burning stable by Orcs fleeing the Bull Duchy. He had been pulled from the dead arms of his Human mother by the tribe's Shaman, who raised him as one of her own.
She soon found that the orphan shared her sensitivity for communication with the ancestors. It was during his rite of passage to become a Shaman himself that he encountered his mother's ghost, wandering in fear amidst a horde of Orc spirits who seemed just as surprised as he was by the woman's presence.
Arrio's mother said she had been looking for him to ensure that he was safe. She kissed him and immediately passed on to Asha, leaving her son to his destiny. When Arrio returned from his dream trance, he explained to his brothers and sisters the portents of his vision, and his Shaman foster-mother answered him in true Orc fashion, "Arrio look like Human! But Arrio fight and dream like Orc. Good enough for me." From that day forward, the dream has never been brought up again.

As with all those born to her prestigious family, Zouleika was bonded from birth to a Minotaur who protected her like a shadow. Wrongly accused of degeneration, her Minotaur guard was put down. His last words to her were, "Mistress, set my people free!".
Deeply affected by the loss of her bond-mate, who had protected her faithfully for the first twenty years of her life, Zouleika left the Seven Cities and headed for the Pao Islands.

Mokka was enraged by this ignominy and vowed to Father Sky that no Orc would wear chains while she had breath in her lungs. She set out to the south immediately with a small army, in search of her destiny. Alas, Mokka's motivated and courageous horde was ambushed by the Duke of Wolf when she crossed the mountains, and all were either captured or killed. Sent to work in the mines, Mokka managed to escape in extravagant fashion. She killed seven guards with a pickaxe and rode away on the back of a Centaur. Now a permanent resident of the Pao Islands, a rebel with a cause, she has become an inspiration to all Orcs with dreams of freedom.

056. Azar Elk's Story:
Azar Elk was born El Kazar, but the Beastmen he helped liberate preferred this more appropriate arrangement of his name: Azar meaning 'to break' in Orc, and Elk in reference to a tremendous horned buck.
"Buck that breaks things", Azar Elk, is a moniker which fits this clever warrior like a deerskin glove. Originally an officer in the prestigious caste of the Seven Cities' Mageblades, he was shocked by the harsh treatment inflicted upon the Beastmen fighting under him. He turned against his Wizard masters and followed his troops in their desertion, and exile. Eventually, they sailed east to join the Orc tribes of the Pao Islands. Azar is a clever mastermind and an expert on the battlefield, knowing exactly how to use the speed and mobility of his Beastmen allies to their best advantage. The Orcs think of him as one of their own, in spite of the fact that he still uses an occasional arcane spell when the occasion calls for it.

057. Rangi's Story:
Rangi was given her name by her tribe of Red Skull Orcs in recognition of her passion for heights.
As a child, she would climb trees, giant rocks and eventually even the rocky face of a smoking volcano. The tribe at first believed that Rangi was a danger to herself and placed bets that she wouldn't make it to her seventh winter, but when her mother tied her to a tree to keep an eye on her, she was released after simply declaring to the tribe Shaman, "Rangi thought Orcs born free!".
As years passed, the tribe realized that she was the best climber the village had ever seen, and relinquished their fears in pure admiration of her exploits. It was on one of these occasions that Rangi rescued a nest of Harpies from the attack of a Dire Jaguar. She nearly died for her heroic efforts, and was in turn rescued by the Harpy parents as she hung from a precipice with one hand, three chicks clinging to her back, and a bleeding claw wound running down the entire length of her thigh. Rangi was greatly revered by the Harpies from that day on, and given the honorary and noble title of Wingless Sister.

058. Harald's Story:
Harald was born in the Free City of Listmoor, on the border between the Griffin Duchy, the Dwarven realm of Grimheim and the Northern Steppes of Ranaar. As a result, he grew up with a friendlier opinion on Dwarves and Orcs than most of his fellow Humans. With time, he grew wary of always having to switch between their respective languages, so he soon created his own dialect, crude but understandable by all, which became nicknamed "znorkish" by his friends.
He now seeks adventure in the Pao Islands, and znorkish is already proving popular among the local Orc tribes. A likeable fellow most of the time, he nonetheless tends to indulge in unintelligible rants after a tankard or two of Dwarf fire-ale.

Her mastery of Fire Magic proved her greatest weapon. The rapidity with which she literally incinerated her enemies earned her the nickname of "Flame Strike". During the events that transpired in Hammer Fall, Erika learned that greed leads only to destruction. A fellow adventurer, Arrio, convinced her to pledge her magical powers to the service of a greater cause. She followed him to the Pao Islands to assist the Orcs in their fight for freedom.

Shiva grew up in the Free City of Stormcliff, but soon understood she was not meant for urban life. In the singing of the birds, in the murmur of the wind, in the growl of the thunderstorm, she could hear the call of Ylath. At twelve, she said her goodbyes (or rather left them on a piece of paper), packed her bags, stowed away in the caravan of a merchant, and started a life of adventure. She traveled all around Ashan with a group of fellow adventurers and accomplished many incredible exploits, including raiding the Sunken Temple, finding the Dragon Utopia, and surviving the deadly traps of the Tomb of a Thousand Terrors.
Currently, Shiva resides in the Pao Islands with the Orcs, learning from their Shamans the secrets of the one they call Father Sky. Not one to sit still for a long period of time, she intends to go looking for the lost peak where the legendary Thunderbird dwells.

Tazar was only thirty-three days old when his parents, merchants from the Wolf Duchy, took the ship in Nilshaven to Strandholm. A terrible storm fell on the ship, and supernatural titanic waves crashed against the frail skiff, opening its hull as if it were a nutshell. His parents died swallowed by the waves, but Tazar survived. He was found on the beach of one of the Pao Islands by a female saber-toothed Jaguar.
Moved by some mysterious animal instinct, she gently took the baby in her maw and raised him as her own. Tazar's first contact with civilisation eventually occurred ten years onward, when a group of Naga poachers killed his "mother". Discovering her skin hanging in the middle of their hunting camp, the boy went berserk and attacked the three Nagas with hands, teeth and rocks. His screams of fury and despair brought forth the attention of some Orcs who had been surveying the interlopers. Amazed by the murderous rage contained within this small Human child, the Orcs came to his help and killed the Nagas. They knocked the feral boy out cold and brought him back to their village, where they patiently tamed him, teaching him the way of life of the Orcs. As the only Human to be considered a Jaguar Warrior to this day, Tazar wears the pelt of his "mother" as a reminder of his origins and as a warning to his enemies.

- When you have Marketplace, you can buy other resources or sell your resources.
- When at Castle Battle Zone, the central tower has its own resistance, it cannot shoot, but it can be garrisoned by one Creature from the defender's army. Creatures gain a special effect while they are in the central tower, it negates range penalty and gives a small bonus to ranged damage. This effect also applies a minimum range to the garrisoned Creatures. Enemy creatures next to the central tower can't be targeted from inside tower. When the central tower is damaged, the Creature stack in the tower is damaged proportionately.
- Spirit Gates will teleport to distant places. Click on the Spirit Gate and see where it leads.
- Depending on their faction, all Heroes have access to a unique ability called the Faction Ability. When the gauge is filled - the pre-requisite of which differs for each faction, - the ability can be used.

- Save Often.
- When your Tear or Blood Faction points reach maximum, your heroes can be upgraded depending their faction.
- When you fight Fire Elemental or Succubus in close combat, your troops will suffer damage from their heat. Best to attack them from distance using range unit.

- The Darkness Elemental will attack your troops from far away and you can't retaliate their attack. Also they can dispel all positive magic at your troops, such as regeneration spells, etc.
- Better to capture enemy barracks before the new week begin in order to increase your armies population for you to hire at the next week.
- Better to equip your artifact that increase your creatures growth every week before the next week begin, so you can equip your others artifact that benefit you most, such as for your battle.
- If there are enemies that you think will cause many damage to your troops, you can skip it for a while until your armies strong enough to take them down easily.
- Better to convert enemies building into your Nation (if their Nation is different from yours).
- Use Rush skill to your best melee units, so they can move and attack enemies range units. Or you can use your Reinforcement skill to your best Melee unit and send them to the front as your "Tanker" unit.
- Before you completed the mission, you may want to gather all the artifacts at your main heroes, so you can use it at the next mission. But the artifact that can carry to the next mission is Dynasty Artifacts and Set Artifacts.
- When in siege battle, and you as attacker, you can standing adjacent to the walls and it will automatically use as a shield from enemy range attack
- Unique items called Dynasty weapons are only available in online mode. These items give relatively small initial bonuses at first but increase in power over time (they gain XP when you use them).
- There are also unique Dynasty traits (which are basically additional starting skills) that are also only available in online mode. These include bonuses to base stats, increased weekly creature growth, decreased building costs and other helpful hero skills.
- At the end of the first mission, the game gives you a weapon as a plot device. This weapon turns out to be a Dynasty weapon and is only available in online mode. You can view it and see the stats in offline mode but you cannot equip it. In offline mode the game also frequently reminds you when you can equip Dynasty traits even though you can't actually use them.
- You cannot start a campaign game in offline mode, then change to online mode to access the online features part way through the campaign (and vice versa). You will have to start a new campaign from scratch to change modes.
- Online campaign games are limited to 10 auto-saves and 10 manual-saves. These save games are stored on the Ubisoft servers and cannot be accessed at all when offline or if the Ubisoft servers are having connection difficulties. Offline mode does not have any limitations on save games.
- You will get kicked back to the menu screen during an online game any time your internet connection is disrupted, even momentarily. You will lose all progress (e.g. if you were mid-battle) from your last save.
- When you found the Golden Eggs, equip the golden egg and it eventually hatches and it will give you free daily gold.
- When fighting large Griffins or Imperial Griffins:
a. Better not to use melee attack, because the Imperial Griffing had unlimited retaliate actions
b. If you have more than 1 range units, put their position far from each other
c. If your range unit position closed to the Imperial Griffin, then position your range unit at the edge of the Imperial Giffins. After that, use Rush skill, so your range unit can flee from Imperial Griffin attack range
d. You can also position your other troops to surround your range units, so the Imperial Griffin can't attack your range units. In doing so, you can use your range units to attack the Imperial Griffin safely from distance. And remember, your other troops that surround your range unit didn't attack the Imperial Griffin. OR you can place your range unit at the corner of your screen, and by doing so, you can use only 1 units to prevent the Griffin to attack your range units.
- If you use Necromancy hero and have the problem that Necromancy II is greyed-out (eventhough the scale is pointer is ready) and unusable, do these steps:
a. When the skill is charged, and other Hero's action is not active (has already use), then turn on the auto-combat button in the right corner (first the AI will make the hero move, and then the AI always use the Necromancy skill). After that turn the auto-combat off before it will take over other creature movement too.
b. OR you can Restart. The bug is a creation bug, you either have it or you don't. You can't get rid of it on a hero that has it.
- Another ability that is very useful is reinforcement skill. Cast it first on the most common target (your healers or archers). OR you can cast it at your best melee unit and move the unit to the front as your "Tank" unit.
- If your unit lost 1 or more of its troops, better not to apply Reinforcement skills on that unit. Heal them first to their original number then apply the Reinforcement skills. In that way, when the battle end, you didn't lose any troops.
- If you have Time Stasis Spell, you can use it to make the enemy creatures skip for some turns. In that way, you have enough time to heal up your troops before you end the battle by destroying the remaining enemy troops. But, remember that you can use the Time Stasis Spell only once for each battle.
- Beware when near enemy castle that have special monument, because they might have build a building that can kill your armies (such as Urgash Fiery Wrath - Demons Building), even when you're a necromancer, because your fallen comrades can't be ressurected at Altar of Eternal Servitude. So, if you want to attack the enemy castle, better to wait a day at the enemy castle border, then when your movement point are fully recharge, move to the castle for final assault.
- If you can't use the Town Portal spell, eventhough you're already at the Town that have Basic Town Portal and have enough Movement point and Magic Point, save the game and try to reload your game.
- You cannot use both Advanced Town Portal and Basic Town Portal on the same turn, even if you have the necessary movement points.
- If your unit suffer Primal damage from the enemy attack, you can't heal your unit.
- Beware when fighting Phoenix close combat, because when you hit them, your unit will take damage. And all damage from Phoenix is Primal damange, that mean can't be healed.
- If your Hero is magical type user (such as Anastasya), you can't use Might type item. So, any items that required that, will not be usefull to you, such as Owlfeather Cloak which is Might type set item. This also happen when your Hero is might type user, your Hero can't use any magical type item.
- In battle, you may want to click at each magic pane, because at "Show All Ability Pane", sometimes you can't see all of your spell. In example, after I've equip the Shantiri Moon Disc, I can't see Summon Phoenix spell at "Show All Ability Pane", but when I switch to the "Tears Ability Pane", I can see it.
- To build Asha's Building, your Hero that carrying the Tear of Asha must at the Castle where you want to build it.
- In battle, if you use wait, that stack will have another move before next turn. It would benefit in some case, such as you want to heal other unit before deliver the final blow to win the battle.
- When in Siege Battle and you're in the defense position, you can put your unit (prefereablly range unit) inside the tower. Just roll your screen, so you can see in front of your tower. Drag your range unit at the door of that tower to garrison inside the tower.
- You may want to gather mostly of your armies into your Primary Hero. And then, use your Primary Hero to attack any enemies, and by doing so, your Primary Hero will gain level much quicker. And, when your armies still small and separated at different locations, you may want to build only 1 of Advanced Town Portal at your Main City. So when your Primary Castle is threaten by the enemies, your primary hero can go back to the Primary City instantly and defeat the enemy. If the enemy threaten your other castle, retreat your armies that guarding that Castle. In that way, the enemy army may split their armies to guard that city, so you can defeat them more easily.
- When you've upgrade your unit building, you still can hire the lower level unit by selecting using the arrow left or right.
- Griffin's skill, such as Diving Assault can also attack enemies that stand at the Castle Tower
- If the enemy has Pit Fiend, better to use your range unit to attack him, because Pit Fiend usually have Hate Retaliation skill that could harm any unit that attack him before.
- At battle, you may want to use wait, to use your current unit skill. Example, when your Vampire Lord attack the enemies, and your Spectre turn is active, better to use wait, until all other enemies surround your Vampire Lord. Then you can use your Spectre's Healing skill to heal your Vampire Lord and also damaging surrounding enemies.
- If you have Reinforcement 2 skill, you can use it on Elemental Earth or any summon creatures.
- Amount of available recruit at every town is the same. The difference only at their upgrade type that depend on the building that you've upgrade. That mean, better to recruit at the town that had higher upgrade building.
- Try to prioritize upgrade your Hero's passive skills, due to the passive skills is automatically active when at the battle. Also you may want to prioritize to learn the summoning spell, such as summon Earth Elemental, so you can use the Earth Elemental as your 'tanker' unit and you could minimize losing your troops. Third, you may want to prioritize the Regeneration spell and Healing spell too.
- At the Final Campaign, Click at the Plus Sign Button at the lower left box to choose the Hero that you want to play the Final Campaign. For the Tear Faction Hero, you can play "Tears Such As Angels Weep", while the Blood Faction Hero can play "Dark With Excessive Bright". Due to this guide based on the Tear Faction, the mission only cover "Tears Such As Angels Weep".
- List of the Boss: Uriel (Necropolis Campaign), Prince Ahribban (Haven Campaign), Breeder Queen (Sanctuary Campaign), Azkaal (Inferno Campaign, but at 1st Mission you can control him), Mother Namtaru (Inferno Campaign at 2nd Mission), Hai Ryou (Stronghold Campaign at 3rd Mission), Abyssal Worm (Stronghold Campaign at 4th Mission), Michael (Final Campaign - Tear Faction).

TIPS FOR PLAYING NECROMANCY
- For Necropolis Nation, you may want to build the Wasting Grounds at the Castle where chance of enemy attack for that town is great.
- Ghost or Spectre can move through any obstacles, include the Castle wall in siege combat.
- If you use Necromancy hero and have the problem that Necromancy II is greyed-out (eventhough the scale is pointer is ready) and unusable, do these steps:
a. When the skill is charged, and other Hero's action is not active (has already use), then turn on the auto-combat button in the right corner (first the AI will make the hero move, and then the AI always use the Necromancy skill). After that turn the auto-combat off before it will take over other creature movement too.
b. OR you can Restart. The bug is a creation bug, you either have it or you don't. You can't get rid of it on a hero that has it.
- As Necromancer, if your unit have died completely, you can use Necromancer's race skill, which is Necromancy 1 - 4, to ressurect them. Of course, the higher rank of your unit to restore, the higher Necromancy skill needed.
- When you play as Necromancer Nation and fighting overwhelming enemies, also you have reach Necromancy 4 skill, put your troops close adjacent with each other. Because with Necromancy 4 skill, you can ressurect them within area 3 by 3.
- Favorite Combo on Battle when Facing Great Threat Opponents (or Enemy Hero):
a. Spell Summon Earth Elemental, and place it at the nearest enemies position (such as their range units or best units)
b. Change Namtaru / Fate Weaver into Arachnidan Shape
c. Use Spell Regeneration, Mass
- Favorite Combo on Battle When Facing Weak or Medium Threat Opponents:
a. Use Spell Rush on the Vampire, Vampire Lord, Ghouls or Ravenous Ghoul (Best is Vampire Lord)
b. Change Namtaru / Fate Weaver into Arachnidan Shape
c. Move the Vampire or Ghoul into adjacent with enemies unit (best is at near enemy range unit). In that way, you can use your Specter to heal your Vampire or Ghoul while at the same time damaging surrounding enemies
d. If the enemies manage to hit other than your Vampire or Ghoul unit, use spell Regeneration Mass. Otherwise, use Regeneration Spell only at the Vampire or Ghoul.
- Favorite Unit Formation when fighting the Boss, Uriel:
001. 1st MISSION: IN THE WAKE OF ADVERSITY (Castelrose, the Fortress of Inquisition)

Maximal Hero Level at this mission: 15
Current Tip:
- When met with Irina, actually you can move 'around' her (I don't know if this is a bug or not), and strengthen your armies first before attack her (such as visit Shrine of Elemental Water to surround your units with Water Shield during combat). To move 'around' her', move your mouse cursor at below of Irina's position, and when the cursor didn't turn into sword icon, then click at it. Do that repeatedly until you can pass her.
- In this Mission, when you found the treasure chest, better to choose experience than gold
- Location to increase your Tears Faction or Blood Faction: After capturing Seishin Castle, Arcane Library, Arena and some quest (depend on your choosen answers)
- If you want to raise your level using the Shrine of the Sevent Dragon, better you do that if there's no other way to increase your experience (such as by fighting any remaining monsters, etc). Because, if you increase your level using the Shrine of the Sevent Dragon, any remaining experience will be reset to zero when you gain to the next level.
- There's an Artifact Merchant, where you may want to sell your unwanted artifacts to get yourself a gold, so you can visit the Shrine of the Sevent Dragon and raise your level. To sell the items you have, just click once at the item and there will be gold you'll get and you can choose whether to sell the item or not.

Here's the strategy at the beginning of the battle:
- My unit combination: 1 stack of Vampire, 1 stack of Skeletal Spearman, 2 stack of Specter, 1 stack of Archlich, 1 stack of Ravenous Ghoul and 1 stack of Fate Weaver
- Teleport the Ghoul between enemy Archlich and enemy Skeletar Spearman, so they can't use their range attack
- Morph Fate Weaver into Arachnoid
- Ghoul attack enemy Archlich
- Archlich, Skeletal Spearman and Fate Weaver attack enemy Fate Weaver
- Use Regeneration, Mass Spell
- All Specter heal your Ghoul
- Skeletal Spearman attack enemy Ghoul
- Summon Earth Elemental near enemy Fate Weaver, so it can't use range attack.
- Fate Weaver attack enemy Archlich
- Use Petrification from your Earth Elemental into enemy Vampire Lord, so it can't move
- Position your Vampire and Specter near your Archlich, whenever possible to block incoming attack from enemy Vampire Lord
- Archlich attack enemy Ghoul
- Skeletal Spearman attack enemy Archlich
And so on... just remember, if your unit have died completely, you can use Necromancer's race skill, which is Necromancy 1 - 4, to ressurect them. Of course, the higher rank of your unit to restore, the higher Necromancy skill needed. And also remember, place your available unit near the enemies range attack unit, and summon the Eart Elemental near the enemy Fate Weaver, and don't attack the Fate Weaver, just stand and defend, so the enemy Fate Weaver couldn't use their range attack.

TIPS FOR PLAYING HAVEN
- Position your Sentinel near other troops, so they can receive shieldguarded skill from the Sentinel
- Eventhough I upgrade the Crossbowman Building, I still prefer to use the Crossbowman instead Marksmen, because the Marksmen could accidently hit our own armies
- You may want to use your griffin as your tank unit, due to the unlimited retaliation
- Usually Haven Town could upgrade their Marketplace into Advanced Marketplace. You should use this benefit to buy artifacts that can benefit you.
- Remember, you can ressurect your fallen Sun Riders, Sisters and Seraphim at Altar Ressurection, if you've build it, of course.

TIPS FOR PLAYING SANCTUARY

- If within your army there's non Sanctuary unit, you can't across the water

TIPS FOR PLAYING INFERNO
- Optimize to use Advanced Market Place to buy artifacts that can boost your Hero, such as Summon Earth Scroll, etc.
- Favorite Armies are Jaguar and Centaur. Better to use Reinforcement skill on your Jaguar or Centaur, because mostly the enemies will target your Jaguar or Centaur. Use your Jaguar as a "Tanker" and move them to the front, while the rest of your armies attack from behind (whenever possible).
- Whenever possible, upgrade your Harpy because the upgrade version can attack the enemies with no retaliation from enemies.
