Aion Wallpaper

admin — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 04:26:52 +0000

In the beginning, the god of Atreia, Aion, benevolently watched over his world. He created the humans, and the Draken to safeguard and watch over them. Eventually, the Draken became obsessed with power and subjugation. They attacked and destroyed anything that would not yield to them, and they began to set their sights on humans. As they grew stronger, a set species emerged from them, calling themselves the Balaur. Five of the Balaur rose to a height of strength above the rest, and became known as the five Dragon Lords. When Aion refused to grant them the power they desired, the power to rival his own, they revolted and declared war on the god that created them. Aion’s hand was forced, and he created the twelve Empyrean Lords, beings of divinity and power to protect the Tower of Eternity, the center of the world and the source of Aion’s power and all Aether in the world. The Empyrean lords formed a barrier that made the land around the tower a safe haven, and people began to populate it and create a civilization.

Some humans, living within the safety of the barrier, learned how to harness some of the same energy as the Empyrean Lords, the aether. Such humans were called Daeva and, like the Empyrean Lords, had wings and the ability to fight the Balaur. With time, enough Daevas were born to form an army. The Empyrean Lords would lead the Daeva into battle and fight ceaselessly, this “Millenium War” as it was called would last for centuries. Eventually Israphel, one of the Empyrean Lords and also one of the two designated Tower Guardians, suggested peace. Ariel agreed, suggesting that if Israphel could overcome his hatred for the Balaur, they all could. Five of the Empyrean Lords, led by Azphel, vehemently disagreed. They considered peace foolish and a sacrilege to the honored dead. However, the second guardian of the tower, Siel, was swayed to peace and her decision sealed the argument. The five Dragon Lords were invited inside the barrier for peace talks. Azphel couldn’t contain his rage. He attacked one of the Dragon Lords with all his fury, and it was then when the Balaur charged the tower. The two Guardians of the Tower, Israphel and Siel, frantically moved to opposite ends of the tower, alongside the other Empyrean Lords and Daevas. With Israphel to the south and Siel to the North, they sacrificed their life energy to ensure the Aether within the broken tower would not dissipate and allow the ends of the world to separate into space. Of the original twelve, ten of the Empyrean Lords survived. Five who had opposed peace and claimed that the weakness of the rest of the lords had allowed the Balaur to attack them reigned over the dark part of the world, becoming known as the Shedim Lords. The other five reigned over the light-covered bottom part of Atreia and claim that it was the Shedim Lords’ actions that caused the breaking of the tower. They are known as the Seraphim Lords.

Guild Wars 2 Evil Rises Trailer [HD] and Wallpaper

admin — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 05:44:36 +0000

For generations, war and chaos raged across the land of Tyria. Five great races competed and warred against each other, struggling to tip the balance of power in their favor.
Then the dragons woke.
The all-powerful beasts stirred from their millennial sleep under earth and sea. With their magical breath the dragons spread destruction and created legions of twisted slaves. A deathless dragon named Zhaitan raised the sunken nation of Orr, triggering earthquakes and tidal waves that destroyed entire cities across the Sea of Sorrows.
Zhaitan’s undead armies surged from the sea, hungry for the destruction of the five races of Tyria: the charr, a ferocious race of feline warriors; the asura, magical inventors of small size and great intellect; the norn, towering shapeshifters from the frigid northern lands; the sylvari, a mysterious young race of visionary plant folk; and the humans, an embattled but resilient people.
Now heroes from the five races must set aside ancient rivalries and stand together against their common enemies.

The Witcher: Rise of the White Wolf Wallpaper

admin — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 00:24:45 +0000

Like the PC original The Witcher, The Witcher: Rise of the White Wolf takes place in a medieval fantasy world and follows the story of Geralt, one of a few remaining “witchers”—traveling monster hunters for hire, gifted with supernatural powers. The game’s system of “moral choices” as part of the storyline was noted for its time-delayed consequences and lack of black-and-white morality.

According to CD Projekt RED senior designer Jakub Styliński, the game will feature a new interface, redesigned boss battles, new music, “a smattering of new models,” and a redesigned character development system, in addition to an entirely new action-oriented combat system with enhanced AI, additional motion-capture animations and the ability to directly control Geralt’s defensive maneuvers.

CD Projekt also confirmed that Rise of the White Wolf would feature downloadable content.
