IDEA DESCRIPTION

Explained by the author.

Nox is an agility melee hero who manipulates with corpses and turns them into her minions.

LORE & HISTORY

Unveil the backstory and characteristics of this idea.

From the calcified heart of a forgotten world, where life's last gasps echoed in dying light, emerged Nox. She is the grim, elegant sentinel of a vanishing lineage, her form a predatory silhouette draped in shadows and skeletal wings. Nox perceives the world's pulse not as life, but as a feverish beat of corruption. To her, every living heart is a parasite, pumping vile blood through unwilling vessels, binding them to a cycle of decay. The true path, the pure existence, lies in the eternal, unburdened survival of the vampyr. And when life surrenders, it leaves behind a distinct, temporary crimson echo, a canvas for her dark art. These echoes are her instruments, extensions of her unwavering purpose. Nox is not merely a survivor; she is a grim gardener of death, tending to the roots of a new world, one built upon the purity of un-life. For her, every heart she stops, every drop of blood spilled, is an offering to the enduring night, a testament to her unwavering conviction that only the vampyr are truly free.
