Playable Characters

At The Threshold, four bitter rivals meet over the Scroll of Infinity — an uneasy truce that holds only until the descent begins. Choose one champion: each descends with their own familiars, a signature trait, two mastered spells bound for Gold tier, and a dragon-riddle weapon awaiting at the wyrm's lair.
