Card Art Showcase: Laruth

Dear Denizens of Issilith!

Drakkorith history is filled with many battles fought with valour and relentlessness. So in order to become a legend, one must do something either really heroic or revolutionary.

Though a very battle-ready nation, not every confrontation the Drakkorith were a part of went in their favour. During one of the many nameless battles the Drakkoriths fought, the vehicle that carried a cannon was destroyed, rendering the cannon practically useless. The clock was ticking. It was only a matter of time before the Drakkorith would lose this fight. But it was then that Laruth picked up the cannon and used it himself, turning the tides of the battle, and creating a legend told even today. This encouraged the creation of a new military order, special forces trained to carry and use cannons without the need for mechanical carriers, the Phaerox order. Thanks to his accomplishments, Laruth became the leader of the Phaerox order. Their main mission? To soften up enemy forces before the main strike force is sent. Maybe that’s where that famous Drakkorith saying comes from, “When Laruth's weapon speaks, even prayers fall silent”.

Laruth is a legendary Drakkorith unit that costs 7 essence and has its stats set at 3 power and 7 health. It also has repel, meaning it can’t be targeted by the ability cards. But what makes this card really special is its effect. After your Avatar attacks, Laruth will deal damage equal to his power to the enemy Core! Combine Laruth with cards like Agni Ronin that will enable your Avatar to attack multiple times during the turn, or buff Laruth’s own power with Taris Veteran and other similar cards to inflict as much direct damage to your opponent’s Core as you can.
