Empyrean

Varus

The first Empyrean, Pyke, tears through the realms on a destructive rampage against his counterparts, birthing new Empyreans in the process. Who will reign supreme as these new powerhouses emerge, and what will they do with their rapidly dwindling time left?

Few know of the Foreglow, and even fewer have seen its volatile neon flames. Normally a cosmic balancing force, something has tipped the scales, causing realms to collapse and funnel the Foreglow's power into single beings. Now known as Empyreans, these otherworldly forces of nature blaze a trail through the realms, each with their own agenda. The fire is spreading, with no end in sight.

Empyrean Varus

This chroma was released as a Loot exclusive in the 2024 Empyrean event.

Having lost his family, Varus was already consumed by vengeance when his realm collapsed. Not only did he survive, due to Nocturne's meddling, but two visiting Empyreans, Kai and Valmar, were absorbed into his bow. With the Foreglow stoking his rage, Varus vows to wipe out every last Empyrean, no matter what his new "friends" say.

Nocturne

Empyrean Nocturne

A nightmarish dimensional parasite, Nocturne was drawn to the Foreglow and—as it burrowed its way to the power's raw form—inadvertently created the first dimensional collapse and the first Empyrean, Pyke. With the Foreglow corrupting its original appearance, Nocturne seeks to experiment further with the Foreglow and find new ways to feed its hunger.

Empyrean Pyke

Pyke remembers little before falling into the embrace of the Foreglow, only that he was defending his home. Waking in a new realm as the first Empyrean, he hears the whispers of other Pykes across the dimensions, taunting him from their homes. Why was his lost and not theirs? No answer will satisfy his searing rage, except vengeance.
