Information
Mu Mystic
Mu'Vorkan is a powerful Mu Mystic who joined the Arachnos organization some time ago. He has quickly risen through the ranks, thanks to his natural magical abilities and the strong Mu blood that flows through him. However, despite all of that, he is still just a faceless Mu in the army that is Arachnos.

Story Arc
An Act of Mercy
Souvenir
Shard of Ice
This shard of ice is all that remains of Ice Mistral. It fell off of her shoulders after she was willingly devoured by Mot, the monster within Dark Astoria. It was a surprising gesture of...
An Act of Mercy
You discovered that the power in Dark Astoria was out to twist the minds of those within the city, looking to make them feel utterly hopeless before devouring them. Scirocco, with his sordid past, was one of the targets.
After rescuing a man named Max and discovering more about the city, you found out about a monster called the Sentinel, one of the powerful soldiers of Mot. If you could defeat the beast, it would weaken Mot and buy you more time to try to figure out everything in the city. Scirocco, however, had gone missing and approached the beast. He was nearly devoured by Mot, having given up on any hope in the future changing, when his apprentice, Ice Mistral, showed a sudden change of heart and demanded to be absorbed instead.
Scirocco was struck by this act of mercy, realizing that somehow all of his teachings had actually gotten through to Ice Mistral. He agreed to help in the fight against Mot and swore that he would be back, and that when he returned, he would rescue Ice Mistral from wherever she was.
Part One: The Suited Man
Briefing
I am sure you are aware that Mot seems to be feeding off the deaths of those in this world, particularly those who die in a violent manner.
This fact means that time is against us on this matter. Every minute a person dies, and every minute Mot grows stronger. I believe the beast previously only gained a small portion of power when someone died in a violent manner, but now that it is fully awakened, it can absorb violent deaths wherever they happen.This god of death also seems to have the ability to twist a person's thoughts and destroy their hope. I assume you have seen it just as we have; we lost a small squadron of Arachnos operatives when we first came here because of that.
I believe it's safe to assume that this absorption by Mot gives him more power than a simple death of a person. This leaves us with an intricate problem, Character.
These Knives of Vengeance seem bent on delivering some form of bloody justice to those who they believe have done something wrong. Mot is luring those who have a tie to Dark Astoria or itself to this city, and these Knives seem to believe that those people must be killed and made to pay, which is only empowering Mot faster than we can combat him.
- What you're saying is we need a way to stop the Knives of Vengeance.
Yes, stopping the Knives of Vengeance should be our main priority. We also need to get more information regarding how to combat Mot and the possible connection these Knives have with it. Our main concern should be how to stop it from altering our minds and absorbing us, as so many have been before.
Scirocco and Ice Mistral departed to raid one of the Tsoo's main safehouses for information; the group has refused to work together with us, and so we must rely on force. I know you are fully aware of this. They have been in Dark Astoria for years fighting the forces of the Banished Pantheon.
I would request that you depart to aid Scirocco and Ice Mistral, as I fear that the Tsoo have become stronger than we could have ever anticipated.
Raid the Tsoo Safehouse
Unnecessary Solicitation
I shall stay behind to relay what we find to the appropriate channels.
Mission Objective(s)
The sound of battle rings through the air. You can hear the sounds of the Banished Pantheon in the halls. They must be trying to destroy any information the Tsoo have!
- Raid the Tsoo Safehouse
- One bookcase to look through
- Rescue Scirocco
- Rescue Ice Mistral
- Defeat the Ravager attacking the safehouse
You've discovered how the Tsoo fight against Mot, as well as a possible lead regarding the location of someone who can help fight the Knives of Vengeance.
Enemies
 |
Dark Astoria and the Mind |
| You found a book written by Hua Tov entitled, 'Dark Astoria and the Mind'. You read over a few pages to see that it covers the effects that Dark Astoria has on one's sanity. Hua Tov details that the sleeper beneath Astoria tries to twist a person's very memories, making them focus on the negative aspects of every experience instead of the positive. If you have loved ones, Mot will make you forget the good times with them and instead remember the horrible times, for example.
Hua Tov believes that Mot is able to devour those who have lost their hope through this method, though he notes that it's possible Mot may be able to devour people without this method once it has become fully powered. There is a note in the book that the best way to combat this is to carry reminders on your person at all times about your loved ones or happy memories. At the end of the book, Hua Tov mentions that someone once fought Mot before, a man named David Hazen, back in the 1800's, but details about his fight are scattered and unreliable. |
|
The God-Killer Sword |
| You were in the Tsoo safehouse looking for more clues regarding the Knives of Vengeance and Mot but instead found some information on a fabled 'God-Killer Sword'. According to the information the Tsoo have, the sword is incredibly difficult to forge, requiring items from all over the world that may not even exist.
However, when forged, it supposedly can specifically absorb the power of any weakened god-like entity. It seems this may be the Tsoo's way of dealing with Mot, if they could ever find a way to forge it. It would take years, however, to actually forge such a weapon, and such work would have to have begun at least five or six years ago for it to be of any use today. |
You defeated the Ravager and saw an image in your mind!
|
Flashes of Images |
| You defeat a monstrous Ravager of Mot in the Tsoo Safehouse and saw several images flash in your mind. You see a man in a suit surrounded by the Knives of Vengeance in some dark tunnels. You then see where the entrance to these tunnels are in Dark Astoria. A harsh voice assaults your mind at the end of the image, the same voice you heard when you were attacked with Sigil...
'Character, I groW strOnGeR by ThE MoMENT yOU havE no HoPE aGAINST the NaTURE oF deATH' You're not too sure what to make of it, but it seems that this man is somehow important in the fight against Dark Astoria. It's a weak lead, but perhaps if you find him, he can illuminate exactly he knows about what's going on. |
Save the Suited Man from the Knives of Vengeance
Unnecessary Solicitation
I suppose this is worth a shot, Character. We have little else to go on regarding how to fight Mot and the Knives of Vengeance.
Mission Objective(s)
You're able to find the tunnels you saw after defeating the Ravager. You can hear the cries of civilians in the distance; it seems the Knives have kidnapped other civilians and brought them in here.
- 4 civilians to rescue (optional)
- Rescue the Suited Man
- 3 heads of the Knives of Vengeance to defeat
- Rescue Max
You've found a lead to use against the Knives of Vengeance and a possible clue as to how to defeat Mot!
Enemies
|
Rescued All Civilians |
| You rescued all the civilians from the forces of the Knives of Vengeance. |
|
The Man named Max |
| You rescued the suited man, who seemed surprised to see you show up.
'Name's Max, yeah, I was in Astoria trying to see if what I heard was true when I was rounded up by these gals. Horrible stuff, really, they made us watch as they slaughtered a supergroup of heroes. Those guys didn't stand a chance; there was about ten of them, they couldn't have more than forty security levels among 'em all. Anyway, you're looking to put a stop to the monsters in this, right? I can give you a hand, sure, but I need time to get together all of my data. It's only gonna be against the Knives of Vengeance, though. If you're after Mot, I'd suggest looking for information about a guy named David Hazen. This guy supposedly fought Mot back in the 1800's. A contact of mine was supposed to drop off documents regarding Hazen at the old Astoria bank. I'm not going anywhere near there, not in this condition, but my contact already made the drop off. Get to that bank and you'll find what you're looking for.' |
Debriefing
Character, Scirocco and Ice Mistral told me that you had gone to look into this 'suited man'. We received word that he made it safely to one of the portals out of Astoria; the woman known as Heather Townshend said she saw a rough-looking man escorting the suited man to safety.
I have gone over the information you and Scirocco recovered from the Tsoo. It makes sense to me, the information regarding a person's mind being warped in this place. I... am somewhat concerned regarding Scirocco, if I may be blunt.
Scirocco has a sordid past, as you may or may not be aware. If Mot is looking to gain more power, then Scirocco would be someone who would be a prime target to sway towards hopelessness. Scirocco is, for lack of a better word, showing his weakness in these days. Ice Mistral can detect it, but I am unsure why she has not acted upon it. However, I am a trusted companion of Scirocco, and I will do my best to aid him.
Personal Story

Mu'Vorkan's Personal Story
Mu'Vorkan was forced to return to Grandville to give a report about what happened in Dark Astoria. In the end, Mu'Vorkan struck a deal with Lord Recluse himself. Mu'Vorkan had a desire to become something greater than he currently was, namely a patron of Arachnos. Lord Recluse proposed to Mu'Vorkan that if he could somehow kill Scirocco, Ice Mistral, and Mu'Drakhan, and also find someone who would be his second in command, that Mu'Vorkan would earn his place as a patron. However, Recluse mentioned that many have tried in the past to do such a task, and all of them have failed. Mu'Vorkan was sent back to Dark Astoria to keep an eye on Scirocco, though he waits for his moment where he can ascend to something greater, to become a face in a sea of faceless minions.
