[366 Days of Monsters] Day 042/366 - Xenemese Sentinel

Added 2020-02-12 14:36:02 +0000 UTC

The ashen wastes of the Xenem Dynasty are home to an ancient race of vampires. Their existence is prolonged by the absence of sunlight granted by the volcano at the center of the island. Shi Xenem, the eponymous 700-year old undead emporer, lives within his Gray Citadel at the base of Mount Shang. Xenem rarely leaves his terrace and is always accompanied by his elite sentinels.

Sentinels are Xenemese who've voluntarily rejected Ascension, thus allowing the brothers and sisters of their

brood to freely Ascend without having to suffer the Trials of Shaie.

In addition to protecting Shi Xenem, the sentinels oversee the Xenem Navy's legendary slave ships. Often, a sentinel enters a conquered territory and seeks the local ruler and slays the individual in order to demonstrate Xenemese dominance.

Undead Nature. The sentinel does not require air, food, water, or drink.
