Revision 4

Chosen are warriors and supporters granted divine power to fight the Nyx curse. The original Twelve Chosen made the first counterattack against Nyx and were lost when the gods retreated, but the title persists. Juno inherits it generations later as the Outcast Chosen, the unplanned awakening that begins Alabaster Dawn's main campaign.

Valor And Wise Classes

The Chosen system has two formal training paths, distinguishing combat from support roles:

• Valor: the combat path. Valors wield Divine weapons and Divine Armor, and they are the front line against Nuemera. Juno is a Valor Chosen.

• Wise: the support and guide path. Wise candidates learn weaving and other divine actions that disrupt Nuemera attacks, manipulate puzzle entities, and assist Valors in combat. Filia o' Marmis is a Wise candidate who dropped out partway through training, but whose abilities are reinstated for Chapter 1.

All Chosen wear Divine Armor, which is what physically protects them from Nuemera. The armor's appearance is highly individual; most Chosen also have pauldrons, but Juno and Filia do not.

The Twelve Chosen

The Twelve Chosen were the original line of warriors selected by the gods to repel the Nyx Calamity. The full roster is not yet known to the player, but several are named in the prologue:

All members of the original Twelve appear lost or unaccounted for at the start of Juno's story. The plot of later chapters is expected to clarify how many survived, what happened to their Divine Gear, and which of them might still be encountered.

Juno: The Outcast Chosen

Juno's title comes from her irregular awakening. Where the original Twelve were ceremoniously selected by the gods, Juno appears to inherit the role generations later, picking up a Divine Marble left behind during the original counterattack. Surviving villagers in Lyhamn treat her with both reverence and skepticism. The opening chapters of the campaign explore that ambiguity through dialogue with Lyhamn's residents and through her early interactions with the few surviving signs of the gods.

Other Chosen

Promotional material includes images of additional Chosen with distinctive Divine weapons. They have not yet appeared in playable content, but their existence supports the developer's stated plan that the campaign will eventually surface other Chosen in later chapters.
