![]() Since Yabu had apparently been unable to destroy the weapons at the time, he’d locked them away in storage to make sure didn’t fall into the wrong – oh, excuse me, RIGHT – hands. Xamweth: DONALD! Let’s just accept that it’s happening, and be done with it!ĭavenport: Alrighty then, moving on: while aboard the windship, Vexx stumbled upon the Astani War Talons, the sacred artifacts that were used by the Astani Guardians to protect their home. Xamweth: You try figuring out another way to get to all those fragments of Astara.ĭavenport: Yeah, I got that, but how can there be wind if there’s nothing connecting the pieces together? … Unless you’re talking about solar winds, in which case – Stricken with hatred and sorrow, Vexx vowed vengeance against Yabu, escaping the mines and breaking into Yabu’s windship to find clues to the Wraith’s weakn– Xamweth: Outraged at this latest outburst, Yabu turned his wrath on the elderly guardian and mercilessly slaughtered him in front of a horrified Vexx. Sadly, he was caught by Yabu himself, who would’ve killed the kid if Vargas hadn’t chucked his pickaxe at him to save his grandson. Anyways, one day, after Vexx got himself smacked for helping his grandfather after he’d collapsed from exhaustion, the anger that had been building up from day one burst out, causing him to lash out at his oppressors. Xamweth: According to the game’s lore (as little as there is), the Wraitheart never fades, even after the Shadowraith it belonged to is destroyed.ĭavenport: … Uh-huh. Despite the best efforts of the village Guardian Vargas and his grandson Vexx, the entire village was forced to toil under the lash of Yabu’s forces in search of the Wraithearts, the last remnants of the first wave of Shadowraiths and the only possible means of powering the Landspire’s Rift System.ĭavenport: Um, wouldn’t any organic materials have rotted away after seven hundred years? Just saying the game doesn’t exactly explain it… ![]() Anyway, one such bit of land was the village of Overwood, which enjoyed a peaceful existence… until the leader of the Shadowraiths, Dark Yabu, discovered the village and attacked. Some of these chunks were still inhabitable, such a–ĭavenport: Whoa, hold up there… how exactly is that meant to work? Xamweth: Seven hundred years later, the planet was reduced to large chunks of land drifting in a field of asteroids. The end result of this smackdown between the Shadowraiths and the Astani was the theft of all the Landspire’s energy and the destruction of Astara. Of course, the Guardian of Astara decided to kick the Wraiths out, but only managed to beat down the first wave before kicking the bucket. When they finished building it, they activated the Rift System it contained and… everything went completely to pot.ĭavenport: A race of demons called the Shadowraiths crashed the party and started annoying their new neighbours by trespassing on private property, pulling pranks on them and ripping their heads off. Xamweth: Yeah, Astara’s definitely seen better days… and probably would’ve kept seeing those days if the Astani hadn’t gotten overambitious and built the Landspire in order to visit other worlds. Xamweth: And it’s our job to analyze their weapons, armour and skills to find out who would win a Death Battle!Īge: Unknown (presumed to be in his late teens)ĭavenport: Ah, Astara … Y’know, it’s a good planet to take a vacation on, if you’re the kind of guy who enjoys visiting a variety of landscapes, studying dozens of unique fauna and flora and seeing the aftermath of a planet-busting cataclysm. Xamweth: And Vexx, the Guardian of Astara.ĭavenport: He’s Xamweth Oudeis, and I’m Donald Davenport… Video games have been a part of our lives of over four decades, and there plenty of well-known fictional characters that owe their existence to this form of media: Mario, Pac-Man, Sonic the Hedgehog the list goes on.īut then there are those characters that are lost to the mists of time.ĭavenport: Such as Blinx, the Time Sweeper…
