Status Powers III: Official Statuses

World of Legends holds a number of unique powers, only obtained through special means. Characters are not permitted to wield these abilities unless earned.

- Majority of statuses can be purchased throughout the year, with 3 being offered each month. To see what is on offer this month, see The Status Shop
- Some statuses can be won via the "Knighthood". This means achieving the top overall points over 2 years (not in succession). The first year names you Knight of the Realm. The next time you reach the top points you will be offered the chance to exchange your Knighthood for a status. (Note: not all statuses are won through this method.)

The following statuses can only be won via Knighthood or purchased in the The Status Shop. They will be added to your profile on receipt. As the years move on, Divine Favours may be promoted to this list. The powers here can be declared during Duelling Tournaments to provide special powers or buffs in addition to combat. See World of Legends - Dice Rolling System for more on this.

Afflictions

• Vampire
  A true Champion of the Night, one of the highest calibres of the undead, Vampires have forsaken their old life to begin anew in the darkest corners of this world. While there have been many who sought the extravagance and wealth not known to them in their previous life, there is only one desire that can not go unnoticed. The insatiable blood lust that forever fuels their actions to sustain their abhorrent existence.

• Werewolf
  The Master of the Hunt, the affliction of Lycanthropy is not for the faint of heart. Beneath a pale full moon, one will temporarily lose every shred of their humanity and take on a bestial form until dawn. While there are a few known throughout the land who can retain some semblance of their human life in this state, many are unable to defy their bestial desires.

Creatures

• Lich of the Valley
  During the year 0012 of the New Era, those who had declared their devotion to the Southern Sun and yet, set foot within the Valley of Despair were cursed by the Night God Eternal. These once mortal beings became the accursed Liches of the Valley, skeletal creatures that form the highest rank of the undead hierarchy. With a strong affinity for their undead brethren, Liches are able to communicate with ghosts, spirits, wraiths and all manner of undead beings as well as command their assistance when needed. Although still a rare breed, their numbers have vastly increased since their introduction upon the mortal plane. No one knows why.

Divine Child

• Blind Seer
  The 'Blind Seer' is one who has successfully traded in their vision for the 'Second Sight'. They are the true masters of perception and can view the world around them regardless of distance or time. Whether it is a location, person or object, a 'Blind Seer' has the ability to know all and see all, just remember that fate is not always set in stone...
• Shadowstryder
  A true shadowstryder becomes one with the veil of deception and vanishes, completely untraceable, under the cover of darkness. While limited to mere shadow remnants during the day, they thrive in the afterglow between dusk and dawn. A unique ability worshipped by thieves and assassins alike, due to their extraordinary success rate to evade capture it is unclear as to whether there are any more Shadowstryders left in the world...
• Silvertongue
  The Silvertongues, sometimes referred to as the Masters of Fate, are immensely powerful manipulators of chance and coincidence. Though their unique talents are never put on full display, the very fabric of reality is always bending and shifting in their favour... at least most of the time. As is life, a toll must always be paid and the balance restored. Eventually, a great misfortune equivalent to their manipulation of the fates will rain down upon them.

Race

• Orc Kin
  During the year 0004 of the New Era, the ancient Valley of Despair crumbled away, freeing the Night God Eternal, Lord Tenebria, upon the lands of Isilendor. Many brave adventurers, knights, rogues and warriors charged within the dreaded abyss in an attempt to push back the darkness and to reclaim their homeland from his corruption. However, with each attempted assault, the Valley of Despair transformed these brave heroes into the first race of Orcs upon Isilendor. Despite their accursed beginning, Orcs have become widely accepted in today's society and are known for their unmatched brutality and strength.

Renown

• Warlord
  The honour and title of 'Warlord' were bestowed upon survivors who accomplished incredible feats on the battlefield. Declared a hero of the realm, these warriors are mighty in battle, ferocious behind their blade and shield and particularly deadly in all manners of combat. Their names are known throughout the realms, their stories even more so. There is no equal to the courage and valour on display when the war drums sound. Only a Warlord may be permitted their own private military forces and fleet.

Speciality

• Chronomancer
  An exceptionally powerful mage, the Chronomancer holds mastery over time no mortal thought possible. They are able to speed a process up, slow it right down or even bring the world to a grinding halt... for a short while. Such incredible power, however, can only be used sparingly and a toll must be paid. You will need a full 24 hours (In Game) recovery in between each cast.
• Necromancer
  The path of the Necromancer is full of corruption and decay. Only the most abhorrent would dare to disturb the resting bones of their ancestors. These highly skilled mages of the Dark Arts seek to bind the very fabrics of life and death itself, raising what has been lost to the surface. What would you cast upon this world with the legion of undead?
• Oneiromancer
  A uniquely gifted sage, these are the true masters of the Divine Arts who often indulge themselves in their extraordinary ability to dream stride. Boasting incredible control over their own dreams, they are not only capable of manipulating the dreams of others but can also subconsciously enter and enjoy the machinations of another's inner world.
