Can you feel the music? Like really feel it? No? Well, then you're definitely not like Shir Brio of Cadenza, expert in cello and actual cello too. When they play a piece, they're definitely feeling the music as it vibrates their body.

Plus, who doesn't love a good song? Even the monsters are appreciative, as they rush to meet this new artist of acclaim and pass on with a soulful melody in their ears.

Click...click...click...from out of the depths of the mountain cave scurries your newest Crusader friend.

A Song of Thrones 6 has arrived, bringing with it the hard worker, Zuczek the Fire-Blooded.

New Tier 6 Crusader: Zuczek the Fire-Blooded

Tags: Event, Female, Animal, Support, Supernatural, Good

Deep down in the mountainside, where no human was supposed to have been able to reach, Zuczek and her hive lived. A harmless worker drone, Zuczek was off gathering supplies when the slaughter happened. She felt the deaths through the hivemind as one by one her fellows were killed. She rushed back, her anxiousness making her claws slip and slide on the stone as she scurried along.

Zuczek burst into the entrance of the home cave and managed to glimpse a view of a man-like figure just before the cavern erupted with a burst of light which knocked her out. When she woke up, her worker's body was now covered in a warrior's carapace and a new fire flooded her veins - a fire for revenge. Whatever miracle had saved her life was bittersweet, but if she transformed once, maybe in time she could change again. She tidied up what remained of the corpses of her family into the burial chamber, and then left the cave for good, looking for the creature that did this to them.

By joining your crusaders on their travels, she hopes to one day find her nemesis.

Tags: Event, Male, Female, Flora, Support, Good

Wandering around on a lush green planet they'd thought looked perfect for a picnic, the Crusaders find themselves hoping that rustling is just the wind. Every so often, with no breeze to speak of, the vegetation shivers and rustles. Nate being Nate, wanders a bit further from the group and falls into a hidden pit. The rustling almost seems agitated as the other Crusaders manage to rescue him.

However, when Merci casts Alchemy to heal Nate, they glimpse a white bloom open slightly and the rustling seems to calm down, as well as healing Nate better than normal. Bat Billionaire and Polly also cast Alchemy and the white bloom opens fully to reveal a face. The being steps out from the vegetation it had been hiding in, and motions for the group to follow them.

It leads the Crusaders to the portal off the world. As Merci is about to go through, the being tugs his sleeve and nods toward the portal, a shy, questioning look on their face. Merci nods at them, and the Alluring Viragallant steps through the portal to join the team.

Once again The Nate Before Christmas blesses our doors, and this year we are visited by a princess of snow: Odile, Snowflake Defender!

New Tier 6 Crusader: Odile, Snowflake Defender

Tags: Event, Magical, Female, Healer, Supernatural, Gold, Good

In the Realm of Berwin, Odile was the first-born daughter of Queen Odessa and King Ambros. The Realm of Berwin, also known as the Domain of Winter, was one of the four realms dedicated to fighting the dark spirits of the otherrealm and protecting the spirits of the seasons. Not only were the royal family of Berwin already strong ice magic users, but when Odile was born, the Spirit of Winter itself appeared and bestowed some of its magic upon her.

As she grew up, Odile began training in secret with her mother, but it soon became apparent that her powers were much stronger than Odessa's, even in one so young. Whispers of Odile's power made their way to the otherrealm where the Spirit of Destruction, Glut, had been resting for many years. Glut sent minions out to investigate the rumours surrounding Odile. One small shadow spirit succeeded and brought the news to its master.

Glut attacked the realm of Berwin, laying waste to the area as he made his way to capture Odile, bringing an air of blight to the once pristine world. Odessa and Ambros managed to hold off the first wave of dark spirits, but Glut had grown in power in its time away. To buy some time and save their people, the royals decided to send Odile away, wiping her memory and transporting her to Earth. Craving the power within, Glut abandoned its siege and followed Odile's trail through the realms though it would take time to find her.

Odile, now living with her new glamoured family as Odette, continued to grow up and lead a normal, mundane life. But Glut's minions eventually stumbled into the right realm and found the missing princess, causing the Spirit of Winter to break the seal her parents had placed. Odile remembered her powers, her family, and with her memories regained, she stepped into her role of Snowflake Defender, ready to help the Crusaders on their quest.
