changedDear Sunborn,While similar in appearance, the Banshee and the Nightmare are very different creatures. This monster shoots a deadly spell at any enemy it encounters. Keep your eyes open for any sudden flashes of orange light, and be prepared to face the wail of the banshee.

changedDear Sunborn,The anguished are pale and slender creatures who do not seem dangerous at first glance. Their immense strength and adaptability, however, allows them to use the Empire’s weapons against itself. Anguished are often seen carrying barrels of explosives in the hopes of blowing up its prey the moment they have the chance.

Dear Sunborn,

During your journey in Rowen, you will come across various merciless monsters that will attack you on sight. These vile creatures are influenced by the Dark Sun. As Sunborn, it’s your mission to defeat this scourge. If you wish to survive these dangerous encounters, it would be wise to understand exactly what kind of creatures will be standing in your way…

The mindflare is a dangerous creature, easily recognisable by its floating body and bright green eye. If you end up being noticed by its deadly gaze, keep a safe distance from it and attack with all the power you’ve got.

The Nightmare got its name for a reason. Its agile legs and hair-raising eyes bring terror to those who see it. We recommend you immediately attack when you come across a nightmare, as its speed allows it to get to you quickly and once it’s near you, there’s no turning back…

Anguished are often seen carrying barrels of explosives in the hopes of blowing up its prey the moment they have the chance.

A kin of the Mindflare, the Frostmind is another floating creature with a singular eye. They have the ability to freeze their prey, making them unable to move and an easy kill. Immediately attack when you see this creature, as it does not give you even a second to react.

There are many more enemies that you’ll discover on your way through the treacherous lands of Rowen, but hopefully this introduction will prepare you for most battles that you will encounter.

Take down these vile creatures of the Dark Sun and avenge our fallen comrades, Sunborn.
