Anson has known his share of hardship in his life. Orphaned at a young age, he and his younger brother were forced to live on the streets, doing what they had to do to keep from starving. But while that experience taught his brother to fear and mistrust the world, it had the opposite effect on Anson. Beaten, battered, or bruised, the fighter refuses to stay down, and he doesn’t believe in giving up, on anyone or anything. No person is too broken, no cause too lost. It’s a philosophy that makes him fiercely loyal to his companions, but sometimes it also results in him charging in recklessly when he should stop and think.

Anson is a Support, Control, and Tanking Champion whose unshakable resolve bolsters the allies behind him. With him is Uggie, the Fallbacks’ slobbering otyugh companion who drives enemies berserk. When the battle grows dire, Anson unleashes the storm within his blade, unleashing devastating power at great personal cost.

Modrons are the embodiment of law and order, marching in lockstep through the planes. But when Nordom Whistlklik was separated from his fellow modrons, the essence of chaos infected this rogue quadrone. Now with his crossbow-shaped gear spirits in hand, he works to fit his complex new outlook into his logical—if quirky—understanding of the planes.

Nordom the Modron has received some much-needed attention with his rework, improving his utility across formations and reinforcing his link to the Modron Core system. These changes will go live at the beginning of the second week of Simril 9 on Wednesday, December 10.

A consummate showman and performer, Lark loves the spotlight, but his desire for attention might end up getting him killed. Hunted by mysterious enemies with deadly intent, Lark has nevertheless managed to forge a degree of notoriety and a small fan following as a bard, all while evading his pursuers and any questions about who is hunting him and why. Lark left his old band of performers and initially joined up with the Fallbacks in order to surround himself with powerful protectors. He didn’t expect to catch feelings for the group in the process, but he’s adjusting. The show must go on, after all.

Lark is a Support, Speed, and Debuff Champion who boosts the damage of Champions in the middle of his formation. He favors sharp words over sharp weapons, but when all else fails, he’ll reach for his crossbow, Last Resort. This impulsive showman has a habit of running off on his own and landing himself in trouble.

To learn more about the bard of the Fallbacks, read on!

• Updated Basic Attack: Uggie's Bite (melee) - Uggie leaps out and bites a random enemy, dealing 1 hit. Uggie will prioritize enemies she hasn't attacked yet.

Havilar's twin sister Farideh has always been 'the smart one' and 'the responsible one'—but that's all right, Havilar is definitely 'the tough one,' 'the funny one' and the 'pretty one' (despite being identical twins). Plus, Havilar has a hellhound! Even if it means she's a sort-of-but-not-quite Chosen of Asmodeus, too, not that anyone asked Havi about that. But he should know her glaive is as good as her right hand, and she can slice a devil just as well as an orc, a zombie, or any other villain!

Havilar has received a major rework with a focus on simplifying her design and increasing synergy with Farideh and Mehen.

Read on to learn everything you need to know about the Havilar Champion Update coming on November 12th!

Havilar

Abilities

Basic Attack

• Glaive Thrust (melee) - Havilar cleaves the closest enemy with her Glaive, hitting all nearby enemies.

Formation Abilities

• Leadership Summit - Havilar increases the damage of all Champions in the 2 columns behind her by 400%.
• Fiendish Resolve - When any Fiend enemies are on-screen, Havilar focuses less on her own attacks and more on buffing her party. Her base attack cooldown is doubled, but the effect of Leadership Summit is increased by 100% for each Fiend that has appeared in the current area, stacking multiplicatively and capping at 25. Fiend bosses count 15 times.
• Mot - Havilar gains Mot as her first Imp companion. Havilar's Imps attack random enemies with Fire of Asmodeus every 4.3 seconds. Mot increases the effect of Leadership Summit by 100% for each Tiefling Champion in the formation, stacking multiplicatively.
• Fire of Asmodeus: Each summoned Imp attacks a random enemy with a fireball, dealing a large amount of area damage.
• Infernal Fortitude - Havilar increases the health of all other Champions by 25% of her max health, and healing effects on all Champions are increased by 25%.
• Battlemaster - Champions affected by Havilar's Leadership Summit gain the Control role (if they didn't already have it) and have a 25% chance for enemies they attack to go berserk for 8 seconds. Berserked enemies move 50% faster, attack twice as often, but deal 90% less damage.
• Sister, Sister - Increase the effect of Leadership Summit by 500% when Farideh is in the formation. Additionally, whenever Farideh's Hellish Rebuke is triggered, Havilar heals for up to 2.5% of her maximum health. This can trigger at most 400 times in a single area.
• Speed Demon - Fiend enemies have a 50% chance of dropping two quest items or counting for two kills when killed.

Specializations

• Dembo - Havilar gains Dembo as an Imp companion. Dembo increases the effect of Leadership Summit by 200% and if Mehen is in the formation, he gains 2 additional Grumpy stacks (he doesn't like Dembo).
• Olla - Havilar gains Olla as an Imp companion. Olla increases the effect of Leadership Summit by 10% for each unique enemy Havilar has tanked in the current area, stacking multiplicatively and capping at 100. Additionally, when Havilar or either of her Imps attacks an enemy, the enemy is taunted to attack Havilar.

The evil magic user Skylla borrows her terrible power from none other than the infamous Arch-hag and Mother of Witches, Baba Yaga. An ally of convenience, Skylla lives only for the pursuit of power and acclaim, seeing even her fellow members of the League of Malevolence as tools to be used and discarded when it suits her needs. Skylla confounds her foes with magical trickery, wielding the unpredictable chaos of the Feywild to hypnotize and incapacitate those who stand between her and her goals.

Skylla is a Support and Debuff Champion who channels the power of Baba Yaga to empower the allies in front of her. She debuffs enemies with Faerie Fire, with her power growing stronger as these marked foes fall. For a unique twist, she has a specialization that switches her allies' ability scores around.

To learn about our latest warlock, read on...

Skylla

Abilities

Basic Attack

• Eldritch Staff (melee/magic) - Skylla attacks a random enemy with her staff for 1 hit, and zaps another random enemy for 1 hit.

Formation Abilities

• Whispers of Baba Yaga - Skylla increases the damage of all Champions in the column in front of her by 400% for each Champion affected by this ability, stacking multiplicatively.
• Faerie Fire - When Skylla attacks an enemy but doesn't defeat it, she casts Faerie Fire on it. Champions deal 200% additional damage to enemies affected by Faerie Fire.
• Fae's Flicker - Whenever an enemy that is debuffed by Faerie Fire is defeated, Skylla gains a Shimmer stack. Skylla increases the effect of Whispers of Baba Yaga by 100% for each Shimmer stack she has, stacking additively. Shimmer stacks persist for the entire adventure and reset when you complete it.

Specializations A

• Witch's Switch - Other Champions in the party have their ability scores switched: STR with CHA, DEX with INT, and CON with WIS. The effect of Whispers of Baba Yaga is increased by 100% each time the difference between the switched scores is 5 or more, stacking multiplicatively.
• League of Malevolence - Skylla increases the effect of Whispers of Baba Yaga by 100% for each evil Champion in the formation, stacking multiplicatively.
• Withering Ward - Increases the effect of Whispers of Baba Yaga by 33% for each debuff that has been applied to an enemy in the current area, stacking multiplicatively and capping at 50.

Specializations B

• Green Fire - Skylla's Faerie Fire remains green, but increases the effect of the debuff by 100%.
• Blue Fire - Skylla's Faerie Fire turns blue. Champions attacking enemies affected by Faerie Fire have a 40% additional chance to deal a critical hit.

Ultimate Attack

• Hypnotic Pattern (magic) - Skylla creates a twisting pattern of colors above the enemies for 15 seconds. All enemies take 5 seconds of BUD-based damage when hit by any Champion for the duration. Additionally, all enemies, including any that spawn, are Stunned for the duration or until they take damage, whichever is shorter.

Abandoned as an infant and adopted by an outcast dragonborn warrior, Farideh grew up to adulthood acutely aware of the drawbacks of being a tiefling. While those from the Nine Hells do their utmost to corrupt her, Farideh isn't interested in power so much as defending the world from demons, the undead, and any other villains trying to bring trouble or drag her friends and family into danger.

Farideh has received a devilish update. Her Hellish Rebuke ability now triggers when any Champion in the formation receives damage, while Chosen of Asmodeus has been reworked entirely. Learn all about the changes below...

Farideh

Abilities

Basic Attack

• Scorching Ray (magic) - Farideh creates 3 rays of fire and hurls them at random enemies.

Formation Abilities

• Hellish Rebuke - Enemies that attack any Champion in the formation trigger Farideh's Hellish Rebuke. The enemy is surrounded by green flames for 5 seconds and immediately takes 0.5 seconds worth of BUD damage.
• Chosen of Asmodeus - Whenever Farideh's Hellish Rebuke triggers, Farideh's damage is increased by 100%. This stacks multiplicatively up to 25 times, and the stacks reset when changing areas.
• Pact Family - Farideh's damage is increased by 100% for each Tiefling Champion in the formation, stacking multiplicatively.
• Sister, Sister - Increases the post-stack effect of Pact Family by 500% when Havilar is in the formation. Additionally, whenever Havilar sacrifices her Imps, the stack cap of Chosen of Asmodeus is increased by 2, stacking up to 5 times (10 additional stacks total).

Specializations

• Daughters of Mehen - Pact Family now also gains a stack for each Dragonborn Champion in the formation, and its post-stack effect is increased by 400%. Chosen of Asmodeus stacks are halved when changing areas if Mehen is in the formation, rather than resetting to 0.
• Fury of Asmodeus - Farideh gains the Debuff role, and whenever Chosen of Asmodeus is at more than 10 stacks, Farideh deals 100% more damage against enemies currently affected by Hellish Rebuke for each stack above 10 she has, stacking multiplicatively.
• Pact with Lorcan - Farideh gains the Hunter role, Fiends become her favored foe, and the effect of Hellish Rebuke is increased by 200% on all Fiends. By sheer dumb luck, each wave of enemies in non-boss areas has a 33% chance to spawn 1-2 Fiends, and all bosses now count as demonic Fiends for the purposes of all abilities that care about such things.

Ultimate Attack

• Infernal Aspect (magic) - Farideh taps into her infernal bloodline, surrounding herself in a nimbus of flames and sprouting a pair of fiery wings from her back for 15 seconds. This causes all enemies to go berserk, resulting in them moving 50% faster, attacking twice as often, but dealing 90% less damage. During this time, her flaming aura shoots slivers of flame at random enemies once per second, dealing massive damage.
