Each character in #Empyreal has their own questline and it’s up to you on whether their story has a happy ending, or if their fate was doomed from the very beginning.
Let us introduce your fellow members of the Expedition; Part 1 is live now:

Even though it has no sculpting tools, the Empyreal character creation is very fun! When I discovered the strong colours that were available, I decided to go for a red demon-like look for my first char.

Loathe that snide little yellow bar at the bottom of youtube ads. Maybe the ad will finish, or maybe it means nothing and you just have to watch more ad. How have we as a society accepted being messed around like this

In #Empyreal, buildcrafting is a key tool in your arsenal.
With thousands of possibilities, you'll be able to create a character that's truly unique, and stand victorious against the automatons inside the Monolith.
