Rebirth & Reclaim

Official notesWorkshop changelog
The Wraith King’s body had been totally destroyed after times of death. But he pinned his only hope on an ancient ceremony called Rebirth Eve. At that moment, the aurora sweeps over the land with a dazzling radiance. All undeads can rebirth and even derive a new talent with the aurora essence. Aegis of Immortal, found as a special offering, will play an important part, when the Wraith King reclaim his throne. Will he surprise us all?
