Hi everyone! One more type of Anonassi today (there are so many!), again illustrated by the talented Mikhail Greuli. These are the Udzeni, “sky-demons”. They float, unnoticed, against the grey skies of the Lost Lands, waiting and silent… waiting for their chance to swoop down on the Chosen and consume them. They live to eat…

I have some more amazing art for you today, of one of the most fearsome creatures in the whole Anonassi army. The terrifying Kapavuk are known for prowling battlefields, being almost invulnerable, and for eating Chosen at random. They induce fear in more than a few Chosen, just through their presence. – Ed

Hi everyone! For a long time after the first ten years of the Anonassi War, the Humans held their areas of the Lost Lands, fighting back the Anonassi to a standstill but making little progress.

Hi everyone! One of the earliest types of Anonassi to appear and one of the most terrifying to this day, Brutes may not be intelligent but they are incredibly strong and tough.
