ENDLESS™ Legend - Forges of Creation Update

As nations explore and exploit Auriga, new things will eventually come to light. Unknown beings will be discovered and recruited, and old friends will unexpectedly develop new abilities. It is never easy to lead an empire, but fortunately one can learn skills and make allies that might - perhaps - render the task slightly less deadly.

Valete Sapiri Kugua, a new Sister of Mercy hero

One of only a handful who bear the title "Valete", Kugua earned this honorary rank through selfless dedication during the Red Pestilence. Whether it was luck or scientific deduction that compelled her to don what would become her trademark mask, she managed to avoid the airborne sickness that took the lives of so many. Kugua's great golden pauldron earned her the nickname of "The Golden Saint" as she pursued her selfless rounds, caring for her city's sick and dying. (Result of GAMES2GETHER votes)
